Miss Bailey sporting her booties to make sure her pads don't get burned! Be careful this summer even your patio or artificial turf can get too hot for your dog to step on without paw protection!! Besides paw protection any brachycephelic breeds should not be left outside, even in the shade,for more then a few minutes to go potty. When the temps get over 100 no dog should be outside.

This beautiful baby visited us the other day. K.C. (named after Kansas City) had the most beautiful coat colors and was an absolute sweetheart 😍

Some days there are just too many cute pets to capture them all. Although we get great satisfaction in helping sick pets, it's a nice break in our busy schedule to see a cute puppy or kitty that just needs a vaccination. Here's some recent cuteness overload for you! Loki a sweet little black pug and Henry who didn't want to sit still for a picture but did come up close to give me a kiss🤎

Adorable Miss Molly came to visit us. She's a little older but has that adorable forever puppy face. She received lots of pets and a snuggle from our technicians, I mean who could resist?

Little miss Tully came in for her vaccinations. Even though she was excited to see us she was more then happy to get back in her purse when we were done.

Some information about the new canine respiratory virus. There have potentially been a few cases in Arizona. The best precautions you can take right now is to make sure your dog is healthy and current on vaccinations. If possible, avoid things like dog parks and boarding where your pet would be exposed to a lot of other dogs.

We are thankful for our small but busy hospital and all the wonderful pets and pet owners that we have the pleasure of knowing and serving. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Sweet,loving Buddy decided he needed to stick close to his parents and since they didn't leave a seat for him, he improvised.🤣🥰

We had the most adorable trick or treaters stop by the clinic. Thank you Lorenzo's dog training for letting them come by!

Three more amazing employees!!🤩 REBECCA is a tech who runs in and out of rooms with the doctors and let me tell you, that is a lot of running. You may also see her at the front desk or putting you and your pet in the room and getting vitals. She can do it all and helps out wherever we need her. FLAVIO is probably an employee you have not seen at the clinic. That is because he is working tirelessly behind the scenes filling hundred of scripts, scrubbing and sterilizing our surgery packs, doing the laundry, doing our surgical callbacks and the list goes on. He is the techs assistant and they definitely appreciate him. NAYA is a Rockstar receptionist. She works very hard to make your experience at the front desk as pleasant as possible. She is one of the kindest people you will ever meet!

Even though our staff appreciation week is over we will keep posting our wonderful employees until we've recognized all of them. KATELLA is our newest technician. She is soft spoken and very kind. She comes with a lot of previous experience and is a wonderful addition to our team. ISAIAH is a great tech who is a huge help on Saturdays. We also depend on him for a lot of small handyman projects around the hospital. KRYSHA is someone you may have had contact with as she often is doing a great job getting you into rooms and getting your pets vitals and history so when the doctor gets in the room they have a good idea of what's needed. When she's not rooming clients she's in the back helping with a wide variety of treatments on your pets. Again the diversity of our team is what makes all the pieces fit to provide the very best care for your pets!

10/21/2023

Today we'd like to recognize Cheryl, Trevor and A***n. CHERYL is a part time receptionist and always willing to give 110% to try and solve any client problems. TREVOR is our jack of all trades. You may see him in rooms or at reception. His is well trained and can slip into any role we ask of him. Team members like Trevor who are cross trained are invaluable to us!! A***n is a new member of our team. She is eager and enthusiastic. She may be new to the team but she was a vet tech many, many years ago and it's just like riding a bike it's all coming back to her. We are so happy she joined our team!!

Jose and Lauren are outstanding treatment and surgical techs. You don't often see them in exam rooms but every wonder how those xrays, blood draws, urine collections, etc... get done in the back treatment area? Well wonder no more. It's because of highly skilled technicians like them. They gently and quickly perform the needed procedures and your pet is back in your arms before they even know what's happened. Lauren has a background in veterinary oncology and Jose in veterinary emergency medicine. Everyone's diverse background is what makes the team at Sun City West so exceptional!!

On this second day of employee appreciation week we would like to show some love to these two receptionists. Reception is often the toughest job at the clinic and these two make it look easy. Ashley and Crystal will be two of the smiling faces you see when visiting us at Sun City West. Their smiles are contagious and they are always ready and willing to help.

10/16/2023

Employee appreciation week is this week so we'd like to highlight our wonderful employees this week. Please thank them for their wonderful care if you're in the hospital this week.
Starting with Jen and Amy. These two outstanding technicians have been working at Sun City West for a very long time. They are excellent surgical techs and have the skill to do anything that needs to be done. If your pet has surgery at Sun City West you can be assured they are in the experienced and competent hands of Jen and Amy. We appreciate what they bring to our team!❤️

For the month of October we thought we'd post a scary black dog or cat but this little girl is more our speed. This is Abbie isn't she adorable?? She came in for her 3rd set of puppy shots.

Sometimes good things come in twos and here at Sun City West animal hospital they are also very cute. Meet Bucky and Ruby and Aria and Danika. These beautiful and handsome housemates came in with their families for exams this week😍

09/16/2023

We saw this handsome boy last week to finish his puppy vaccinations. Johnnie Walker was adopted from Stealing Hearts animal rescue and his new owners adore him and so do we!!

09/08/2023

We were very excited to see these two cutie pies but Sky and Luna were obviously very bored with us or possibly quite annoyed!😂

08/31/2023

Yay!! We have spruced up our lobby and now offer snacks and coffee to all of our clients. We would also like to fill our bulletin boards up again with pictures of our patients so please bring them in and we will put them up on the bulletin boards. Lastly we have two social media spots on our wall by the scale and in room one. If you take a picture of your pet by these and post it to your social media and tag the hospital or use in your post we will look at these every month and draw a name for a free exam. The first picture is Dr. Giffords dog, Boost by one of those wall clings! It looks like he's yelling at his dad 🤣

Did you know Shiba Inu's were bred to be hunting dogs in Japan? They are great small game hunters. NALAH doesn't know about hunting but she does know she looked like an adorable teddy bear at her appointment today.
❤️❤️❤️

The waiting room can be a scary place for pets but these two made the best of it and became quick friends. ELVIS and MUGGSY! 🫶

Australian shepherds often have blue eyes but Sophie's eyes are so striking. This pretty girl got her vaccines today.👀💙
