💙 It’s Veterinary Technician Appreciation Week! 💙

These unsung heroes work tirelessly behind the scenes all year long, and this week we’re taking a moment to celebrate them!

Cori and Ashton bring so much love, laughter, and heart to our clinic. From answering phone calls and comforting nervous pets to assisting in surgery and keeping things running smoothly — they truly do it all. We couldn’t ask for a better team of techs, and we’re endlessly grateful for their compassion, skill, and dedication. 🐾

✨ Technician Spotlight: Ashton ✨
Ashton joined our team at the beginning of 2024 and has been an incredible addition from day one! We admire her compassion for every animal that comes through our doors and her constant drive to learn and grow. Her work ethic is unmatched — and if something needs cleaned or organized, she’s already on it. We love her big heart (especially for the three-legged pets!) and hope she feels extra appreciated this week — she truly deserves it! 💛

✨ Technician Spotlight: Cori ✨
Cori has been with us since 2021, and we truly can’t imagine the clinic without her. From ordering supplies and keeping us organized to showing kindness and patience with every patient, Cori keeps our team running smoothly day after day. We admire her strength, compassion, and ability to teach and welcome others — from students shadowing to every species that walks, hops, or gallops through our doors. 💕 We’re so lucky to have her and hope she feels extra special this week — she deserves it!
If you see these amazing humans around this week, be sure to give them an extra big thank you! 💙

At Arrowhead Animal Clinic, we believe every pet deserves a fighting chance, especially in their most urgent moments. That’s why we created the Healthy Paws Fund in loving memory of Dr. Dan Hefley.

Dr. Dan devoted his life to caring for animals with kindness, skill, and heart. After his passing, his family, friends, and devoted clients donated to help keep his compassionate spirit alive. With those generous gifts, the Healthy Paws Fund was born: a quiet, behind-the-scenes source of hope for pets needing small assistance with medical care.

Now, the fund that once helped so many over the years is nearly depleted. To ensure we can continue Dr. Dan’s legacy, we’re launching a T-shirt fundraiser!

👕Shirts are $25, and 100% of proceeds go directly to the Healthy Paws Fund.

Your support will help us provide assistance to pets who need it most, and continue honoring the legacy of a man who gave so much to so many.

💙If you’d prefer to support the fund without purchasing a shirt, donations are always welcome, and every dollar goes directly toward helping pets in need.

🩺Stop by the clinic or message us to order your shirt and be part of something meaningful. (T-Shirt design will be posted in the comments!)

The 4th of July is almost here, and fireworks can be scary for our furry friends! If your pet gets anxious during loud celebrations, now is the time to plan ahead.

Give us a call or text to get their anxiety meds filled, or if we haven’t seen your pet before, schedule an appointment soon so we can help them stay calm and safe this holiday season! 🐾💙

Thanks for recognizing their dedication and commitment to helping animals. They truly appreciate a kind word sent their way.

It's Veterinarian Appreciation Day!

For pet owners…Here are 5 simple ways to show appreciation for your vet on Veterinarian Appreciation Day!

👉Drop off treats!
Vets and their staff often work long hours, show them some kindness with snacks and treats! Be sure to check for food allergies!

👉Be patient
Most vets are booked out at least one month ahead these days to no fault of their own. Be patient, schedule your pets’ care early, and don’t take it out on support staff who are trying to help get you in to see the vet.

👉Be kind to their staff
Veterinarians couldn’t look after their thousands of patients (yes, thousands) without their support staff. That includes receptionists, vet techs (or nurses in some countries), kennel assistants, and everyone who makes your visit possible.

👉Respect your vet’s education and experience
Your vet worked hard to be able to be there for you and your pet. Google is convenient, but Google didn’t spend 8 years earning a degree in veterinary medicine. It didn’t spend its summer breaks interning in hospitals and being trained by experienced veterinarians. Google hasn’t examined or treated any patients.

If you’ve asked for an appointment, that means you know that your vet knows more about how to help your pet than Dr. Google. Even if you don’t agree with a vet’s opinion, you should at least respect the fact that it is given based on 8+ years of education and x number of years of real-life practice—and out of genuine love and concern for your pet.

👉Say “Thank You”
Believe it or not, this common courtesy is often forgotten by pet owners. Say “thank you” to your vet, the vet techs and assistants who helped take care of your pet, the receptionist who signed you in and checked you out. Without them, your pet wouldn’t get the vital help and care they need.

And finally, we want to thank Arrowhead Animal Clinic's Dr. Shanlyn Hefley-Cooper and her staff for all that they do for our shelter animals!

🌟 Intern Spotlight: Lily! 🌟

This past Friday marked the end of an incredible chapter with our high school intern, Lily. She’s been with us all school year, and we’ve truly loved having her as part of our team!

From learning how to navigate our computer system to assisting with appointments and handling phone calls like a pro, Lily jumped right in and made herself an essential part of the clinic. Her positive attitude and eagerness to learn didn’t go unnoticed—and neither did her kind heart toward our clients and their pets. 🐾💙

We celebrated her last day with a fun cookout, and while we’re sad to see her go, we’re so excited to see what her future holds. Thank you for all your hard work, Lily!
