🎃👻 Happy Howl-o-ween week from all of us at Fenton River 🐾

🍬 As we prepare for a fun week of costumes, treats, and spooky sights, we want to share a few tips to keep your furry friends safe this Halloween:

🕸️ Watch the Treats – Chocolate, candy, and other sweets can be dangerous for pets. Keep treats out of reach, and consider having a pet-safe treat ready for them instead!

👹 Costume Comfort – If your pet loves dressing up, make sure their costume is comfortable and doesn’t restrict movement or vision. And if they’d rather skip the outfit, a festive collar or bandana works just as well!

🎃 Safe Spaces – Trick-or-treaters can bring a lot of excitement. Set up a cozy, quiet area where your pet can retreat if the hustle and bustle becomes too much.

🐾 ID & Safety First – With doors opening frequently, make sure your pet’s ID is up-to-date if they make a dash for it.

Share a photo of your pet in their Halloween best in the comments below – we’d love to see your spooky sidekicks! Have a safe, fun, and fantastic Halloween week! 🎃🖤👻

We want to shine a light on some of the most compassionate and dedicated people on our team—our incredible veterinary technicians. 🐾✨ If you’ve ever had a pet cared for here, chances are you’ve been touched by their kindness and expertise. 💖

Our vet techs are the ones who, with a gentle touch and a warm smile, ease the nerves of anxious pets (and their worried humans). 🐶😌

They’re the steady hands during surgeries, the soft voice that comforts during exams, and the loving presence that stays with each pet from start to finish. But more than that, they feel each moment—celebrating the good days 🎉 and holding space for the tough ones. 🤍

They know your pets like family. They remember that Re*****on loves belly rubs after his check-up, that Roxy always feels braver with a cuddle, or that Oliver will happily take any treat you give him🐕🐾 They put their hearts into EVERY interaction. ❤️

To our incredible techs: You show up daily with dedication, love in your heart, and care for each pet as if they were your own, and we’re so lucky to have you. 🫶🐾

We see all that you do, and we are endlessly grateful. 💙 Happy Vet Tech Week💙

It’s MONDAY, let's introduce you all to one of our team members!

For this we would like you to meet, Dr. Trevor Copes!

Trevor grew up in New Lothrop, Michigan (Go Green 💚) on a cash crop and livestock farm, where he developed a passion for livestock husbandry at an early age. His family farm raised pigs, Holstein steers, and Hampshire ewes 🐖🐄🐑, and by age 8, he was already showing pigs at the county, state, and national levels 🏆. Trevor remained active in 4-H and FFA, organizations he continues to support today.

He earned his bachelor’s degree in biology and chemistry from Saginaw Valley State University and later graduated from Tufts Cummings University of Veterinary Medicine 🎓. During his studies, he worked in the university’s anatomy lab and on the school’s farm, gaining hands-on experience in animal care 🧑‍🔬.

After vet school, Trevor completed an intensive livestock internship with Tufts Veterinary Field Service, focusing on production pig medicine, dairy calf care, and animal surgery 🐄🔬.

Trevor lives in Connecticut with his partner, Dr. Parrella, and their three cats, Alopecia, Rue, and Octavia 🐱. In his spare time, he enjoys hunting, fishing 🎣, gardening 🌻, hiking 🥾, and golfing ⛳.
