🎄 Holiday Pet Safety Tips 🐾
The holidays are full of fun, food, and festivities — but they can also bring hidden dangers for our pets. A few simple precautions can help keep your dogs and cats safe and healthy this season:

✨ Skip the table scraps — Rich foods like turkey skin, gravy, chocolate, onions, and desserts can cause stomach upset or serious illness.
✨ Secure decorations — Tinsel, ribbon, ornaments, and string lights can be choking hazards or cause intestinal blockages if swallowed.
✨ Watch the plants — Poinsettias, mistletoe, holly, and lilies (especially for cats) can be toxic if ingested.
✨ Provide a quiet space — Guests, noise, and routine changes can be stressful. Make sure your pet has a calm place to retreat and relax.
✨ Keep medications and alcohol out of reach — Even small amounts can be dangerous for pets.

A little prevention goes a long way toward a happy, healthy holiday for everyone — including your four-legged family members! ❤️🐶🐱

If you have any questions or concerns, the team at Sumner Veterinary Hospital is always here for you.

Dr. Z had an amazing time visiting our local Sumner High School for Career Day! She spent the morning teaching students about veterinary medicine, showing them suture patterns, answering great questions, and even sharing a fun PowerPoint she created just for them.

The students were so engaged and excited to learn what it’s like to care for animals, and we’re grateful for opportunities like this to inspire the next generation of animal lovers and future veterinarians. 💙🐾

We’re proud of Dr. Z for representing Sumner Veterinary Hospital and sharing her passion with the community!

🐾When it rains, it pours… and apparently rubber ducks try to swim inside dogs now.🐾

Meet Bucky, an 8-month-old Australian Shepherd who decided to swallow a ducky! Thankfully, Dr. St. Cin jumped into action and successfully removed the ducky.

Bucky is doing great and recovering well!
