"Helped this little girl take her first breath- my first puppy resuscitation 🥹🤍💪"

--Amber

ER veterinary medicine is demanding, relentless, and often exhausting. But when someone asks, “Did you have a meaningful moment today?”—there’s always a clear answer.

🚨 We’re here. We’re open. Thank you to our incredible team.

🎆 Celebrate Independence Day your way—just PLEASE keep your pets safe and secure.

🥳 We’re FIVE years old!

🗓️ Since June 2020, we've grown from a determined team with a dream to a deeply connected community of pet lovers, caregivers, and miracle-makers. Whether you've come through our doors at 2 a.m. with a critical emergency or donated to help someone else's beloved companion—you are part of our story.

💪🏾 Yesterday's post is proof of that. We look out for each other and our pets.

🐶🐱🐹🦎 This year, we’re marking our milestone with something special: new shirts inspired by the heart of our mission—the Miracle Fund. The design celebrates all creatures, great and small, woven together in care, compassion and our community. Dogs, cats, hamsters, lizards—all connected by the belief that when we take care of each other, our whole community becomes stronger.

👕 Proceeds from our newest design will go directly to the Miracle Fund, helping families in crisis afford emergency care for their pets.

💖 Thank you for five incredible years of trust, love, and resilience. Here’s to many more years of lifesaving care—together.

💔 We need to share this.

🚨 We’ve lost four patients in four days to heatstroke.

☀️ Please don’t let this happen to your pet. Make sure they have cool spaces, fresh water, and only exercise early morning or late evening.

📞 If you're unsure whether your pet is showing signs of heatstroke, call us immediately at 717-432-6030. Every minute matters.

📸 Post a pic of your pet staying cool—let’s spread smart, heat-safe habits together.

🎉 Happy Birthday to our "One Woman Catering Crew"

😋 Kim, we know it’s gonna be a good day when you walk in with foil. We appreciate all of your thoughtful talent.

❤️ You keep us fed and functional and you help us save lives. We are forever grateful. Enjoy your day, your deserve all the treats.

☀️ During a long stay, we make sure our patients get a change of scenery—because wellbeing isn’t just medical.

⚕️ When Sardine, a 2-year-old Norwegian Forest Cat, became blocked, multiple hospitals worked together to provide fast, coordinated care. He was safely unblocked, recovered well, and was urinating comfortably at discharge.

📝 Urinary blockages can be life-threatening, but there are ways to help prevent them. Encouraging hydration, feeding a vet-recommended urinary diet, and reducing stress at home are three of the most effective steps you can take.

🤲 We’d love to hear your best comfort tips! Sharing helps everyone, and fresh ideas are never a bad thing.

🐾 This is Juniper and Katherine.

🚨 Earlier this year, this sweet 7-month-old Irish Setter was out playing when a stick pierced her side. On the way to MDAEH, she vomited with a tinge of blood—scary and sudden.

⚕️ Our team jumped into action, managing her pain and supporting her blood pressure with IV fluids and dopamine. Thankfully, the stick worked its way out, and X-rays confirmed it hadn’t punctured her abdomen.

❤️ She made a full recovery—but her case is a powerful reminder: even a simple backyard play session can turn into a life-threatening emergency.

☀️ Enjoy the summer, soak up the sun, but stay alert—and always know where your nearest emergency vet is.

✅ Built the deck.
✅ Fixed the sink.
✅ Completely unraveled when the dog sneezed twice.

❤️ We see you, Dad. Happy Father’s Day.

Happy Birthday to the one and only!

Wishing you a day filled with as much joy and laughter as you bring to everyone around you. Your dedication, grit, and sharp wit means your managing more than most could handle—because when it’s busy, you don’t just keep up, you lead the charge.

You’ve perfected the Longbottom Effect: a little chaos, a lot of brilliance, and—amid the whirlwind—your genius saves lives and strengthens the team. You’re unapologetically real, fiercely capable, and never afraid to take the hot seat when it counts.

Now Kaylynn (CSR) and Libby take the hot seat and share a little more about the woman behind the stethoscope.

Have the best day—you deserve it! 🐾🎂💙

🪜 This kitten walks under ladders and still lands on all fours.

💪🏾 Just like our team—fearless, fast, and ready to work.

💉 Open all Friday the 13ths—and every other day too.
..But hey, if you’ve got any superstitious rituals, send a little good luck our way while you’re at it. We’re not worried, but we wouldn’t mind the backup. 😼

💔 In emergency medicine, we’ve walked alongside families in the hardest moments—grieving, holding, remembering. We see the strength and love they brought to your life. Today, we honor the beloved pets who passed through our doors and stayed in our hearts.

🌈 Remember, you may feel empty without them but you are more full because of them.

🤲 At times, sharing helps heal—leave a tribute or moment in honor of your beloved pet.

❤️

🧶 When your knitwear game is strong but your tummy isn't...

🚨 This winter Tobias showed up in a dapper sweater—but this stylish guy wasn’t feeling his best. He hadn’t eaten, was vomiting and having bloody diarrhea, and seemed painful and tired at home.

⚕️ Bloodwork showed he was severely dehydrated, and imaging pointed to significant inflammation in his GI tract. We admitted him for IV fluids and supportive care. His family wisely chose supportive treatment at home, providing Tobias with the care and love he needs while managing resources responsibly—an important and effective approach in his healing journey. ❤️

🪴 Pet Parent Tip: While Tobias’ family doesn’t think he got into anything this time, they did mention he sometimes nibbles on succulents. Many common succulents—like jade plants and aloe—can be toxic to pets. A good rule of thumb? If it’s not pet-safe, place it out of paw’s reach or stick to known safe plants like haworthia or echeveria!
