🎄 Merry Christmas from all of us! 🎄

We’re here for you today, all day and through the night until 7 AM on 12/26. If you have any questions or need to bring your pet in for care, don’t hesitate to give us a call!

As you enjoy the festivities, keep an eye out for common holiday hazards. Ribbons, tinsel, and other wrapping materials can cause trouble if ingested, and visitors’ medications may pose a risk too. Watch out for your delicious holiday treats — rich, fatty foods can lead to pancreatitis, while candies containing xylitol and certain fruits (grapes, raisins) can be toxic, as well as chocolate. Onions, garlic, and more should be kept away from your pets for a safe and happy holiday season!

Stay safe and enjoy your celebrations! 🎅🐾🎁

This past weekend, we had the privilege of assisting the lovely Lulu when she experienced some complications during labor. She is such a sweet dog and an amazing mom to her adorable puppy! We are grateful for the trust her owners placed in us to care for her.

In the photo, one of our assistants, Katie, is supporting Lulu as she recovers from anesthesia. Brachycephalic breeds, such as French Bulldogs, Boston Terriers, and Pugs, often require their endotracheal tube to stay in place longer than usual to ensure proper oxygen flow and airway support. Lulu recovered beautifully from surgery and is now doing wonderfully at home with her fantastic family.

Did you know that if your pet has been impaled by a foreign object, such as a stick, stake, or similar item, it’s important not to remove it if you can safely leave it in place? Often, the object can actually be blocking the wound and helping to control bleeding.

This past weekend, we treated a sweet dog named Cedar after her owners noticed a stick embedded in her leg following a run in the woods. In Cedar’s case, we advised her owners not to pull it out and to bring her straight to the clinic. Though the stick seemed small, it was crucial that it wasn't removed because it was lodged near the lateral saphenous blood vessel, an important vessel that could have caused significant blood loss if removed improperly. We sedated Cedar and carefully extracted the stick without complications.

Thank you to Cedar’s owners for bringing her in to see us! She was a joy to work with, and we’re happy to report she’s recovering well!
