Chico wishes all of his canine friends a happy international dog day! We hope your dog is feeling it like Chico is. For those of you who know Juan, our veterinarian technician assistant, this is his fur baby!!

Cute story from one of our staff members. I’m at work the other day and one of the receptionists said “Jamie come look, this dog looks just like Lyla”. I’ve heard this before so not really thinking anything of it, I went up to the lobby. The dog looked just like her, just with darker features!!!!! When I picked her up at Strawberry reservoir at 10 weeks old, her brother was with her with the same darker features. Come to find out after talking further with the owner, it really is Lyla’s brother!!!! The same pup that was with Lyla when I picked her up!!!! We scheduled a meet up at the clinic tonight and here are some pictures. Crazy how similar they are in character too!!!
