Our patient, Trixie, a 7-month-old corgi mix, is enjoying a cozy autumn nap after her spay surgery. Bundled up in warm blankets, her relaxed posture shows she's completely at ease. Rest is essential for healing, as it allows the body to recover and regain strength. We’re glad to provide her with the comfort she needs during her recovery!

When Dracula had recently visited us, we couldn’t resist surprising him with a custom Halloween bandage to match his spooky name! Seen here with Danny, Dracula came in for his K-laser treatments—painless, relaxing therapy that promotes healing. His pet parent has been so dedicated to his care, bringing him in routinely for wound management and laser therapy. Their hands-on participation in Dracula's healing process is truly inspiring, and we’re so grateful to collaborate with them to get Dracula feeling back to normal. He’s doing so well now, and we’re thrilled with his progress!

Yoda and his mom had recently come in for a wellness visit in their Halloween best! We loved his wings and his mom’s coordinating Halloween-themed outfit, which made the visit special! Yoda was a little apprehensive, but we knew just what he needed—squeeze cheese, please! Offering him squeezy cheese during his visit helped him relax and feel at ease, knowing we’d keep him safe and happy throughout his appointment.

Our technician Emily shared a warm, relaxed moment with Moresian mare Ember before her dental work with Dr. Campbell. Ember was having her wolf teeth extracted (sometimes called floating the teeth). The mouth speculum she's wearing here ensures Ember can keep her jaw comfortably open, allowing Dr. Campbell to work with precision while keeping Ember at ease. This gentle approach helps make the procedure less stressful, giving Ember the best experience possible.

Here’s Duke the Yorkie being such a trooper during his Schirmer tear test! To do this test, we place a small strip of paper under his lower eyelid to measure tear production. He said it didn’t hurt at all, but just looked a little funny! Dr. Benson and assistant Dalana made sure Duke was comfortable and calm throughout the process—what a champ!

Meet Elanor and her adorable hairless guinea pig, Hippy, who just moved to Walla Walla all the way from Albuquerque! We’re thrilled to welcome them to the community and into our AVMC family. We’re here to help Hippy feel her best as we address his respiratory concerns, and we love making sure new friends feel at home from the moment they arrive.

It is Veterinary Technician Week!
This week at Associated Veterinary Medical Center, we celebrate our amazing licensed veterinary technicians and our entire team! This morning, we all wore our new t-shirts, enjoyed breakfast, and did our best capture the moment! 😊

This is Staci and Lita Pita, a 1-year-old in for GI upset, getting the extra care and comfort she needs. Little dogs often feel safest in close, enclosed spaces, and a sling like this mimics the warmth and security they’d feel from being held or snuggled. By staying in the sling, Lita Pita is more relaxed during her visit, which makes the experience less stressful for her and more effective for us. We go the extra mile to personalize every visit because when our patients are comfortable, we can provide better care—and it’s absolutely worth it!

Willow’s owners were worried she might feel nervous without them, but we made sure she felt right at home. Just look at how happy and relaxed she is, patiently waiting with our tech, Emily, while she finishes charting. Willow is pure royalty with her luxurious Great Pyrenees fur—even her posture is queenlike. We love the neatly crossed paws—very demure!

We recently celebrated Dr. Wicks's 10-year anniversary with us, and we couldn't let the milestone pass without a grand feast—complete with adorable animal cupcakes! 🧁🐾 Time has flown by, and we feel so lucky to have Dr. Wicks as part of our AVMC family. She’s always supportive, compassionate, and truly dedicated to the well-being of every animal in her care. Help us celebrate by sharing some love for Dr. Wicks in the comments below!

Our sweet little friend Bo, a 13-week-old pup, recently visited us and brought his playful energy! He loved playing with a Kong toy and turning the office chairs into his personal clubhouse. These important moments of bonding will make a lasting impression on Bo, ensuring he feels comfortable and happy here during future visits. We can’t wait to see him again for his final puppy vaccines! 🐾❤️

Meet our feline friends, Jasper and Maxine—two stunning Maine C**n siblings! We were amazed by their size and strength, with Jasper (the yellow one) weighing a remarkable 38 lbs. It was adorable to see them stroll confidently into the medical center on their harnesses and leashes, showcasing the proud independence typical of Maine C**ns. We were honored to provide care for their wellness visit and vaccines with Dr. Wicks and Assistant Mae. We can’t wait to see these magnificent cats again!

We’re excited to share a heartwarming reunion made possible by microchipping! This sweet kitty had been missing for several nights after wandering away from home. Luckily, she ended up at the home of one of our wonderful clients, who brought her to our clinic. After scanning her microchip, we were able to quickly contact her relieved owners, and they rushed to reunite with their furry friend. 🐱💕

Microchipping is a vital tool for safeguarding pets. It helps ensure that lost animals can be quickly returned to their families, whether they slip out the door while groceries are being unloaded or flee during fireworks. We’re grateful to our clients who keep their pets microchipped and make reunions like this possible!
