Valentino, our sweet and handsome patient, came back for suture removal in mid-October after having surgery for intussusception. This condition is rare and can be life-threatening if not treated. We don't always know why intussusception happens, but there can be causes like parasites. In Valentino's case, we think it was idiopathic, meaning there was no clear reason. He has done very well, has a good outlook for the future, and was an excellent patient! 🐾

*ADOPTED!* Meet Jingle and Belle, two puppies who got a rough start in life but are now ready for their forever homes, thanks to a team of awesome people!

These adorable poodle pups were found in the back seat of a car, along with a number of drugs, by an officer with the Mill Valley Police Department when they responded to a call regarding a suspicous person in a vehicle. The police officer called us and Animal Services Officer Courtney Miller (pictured here) arrived on the scene to find the approximately four-week-old puppies acting worryingly listless. She whisked them off to Pet Emergency & Specialty Center of Marin where it was confirmed the puppies had ingested drugs.

Fortunely, Jingle and Belle recovered quickly and were able to go to a foster home, where they thrived. They're about 8 weeks old now and ready to head to forever homes for the holidays!!

We'd like to thank the Mill Valley Police Department, Officer Miller, and PESCM for their efforts to get these puppies safe and healthy! The driver of the vehicle was arrested and willingly relinquished the puppies to Marin Humane, and the Mill Valley PD is now pursuing extra charges.

If you're interested in Jingle (male) or Belle (female), call our adoptions department at 415-506-6225.
