Brrrr! 🥶 Today is a great day to stay warm and cozy inside! When Winter temperatures dip like they have been the last couple of days, it's a good time to review these pet safety tips to ensure your pets stay safe all season long. How is your pet keeping warm today? Post a pic 📸 below and show off how your pet is staying toasty.

The temperature may have increased a bit today and tomorrow, but the bitterly cold weather is coming! 🥶 No matter the temperature, the colder months come with a number of potential dangers to your pet, including cold temperatures and chemical hazards. Just because your pet has a “fur coat” doesn't mean they’re prepared for all the weather Winter has to offer. Temperatures below freezing, along with wind chill can be dangerous and even deadly. Keep your pets safe this winter with these winter safety tips.

🧤Don’t leave pets in vehicles: Winter conditions can be just as dangerous and life-threatening as the summer heat.

🧣Bundle up...both yourself and your dog! A sweater, jacket, and booties may help your dog enjoy the cold weather more comfortably.

🥶Consider your pet's health when choosing outdoor activities: Cold weather may worsen medical conditions such as arthritis, and dogs with joint disease may be more prone to slipping and falling on ice and snow.

❄️Monitor the windchill: No matter the temperature outside, windchill combined with dampness, rain, sleet, and wet snow can be dangerous.

🌬Protect paws: Trim hair between toes to avoid formation of ice balls, and use pet-friendly balms to protect before they become cracked. Avoid salted sidewalks because it can cause irritation and potentially severe disease if licked.

🧤Avoid ice: Stay clear of frozen water not deemed safe by local authorities.

🧣Modify walks: If it's freezing outside, let your pet stretch their legs with brief, frequent walks rather than long walks.

🥶Prevent antifreeze poisoning: Just a small amount can cause permanent and fatal kidney damage, and with its sweet taste, many animals find it irresistible. Never drain antifreeze into the street, wipe up any spills, and store it in tightly closed containers out of reach of pets (and children).

We had the privilege of spending some time with several Madison Police Department officers from Capital K9s while our Training Coordinator and Certified Veterinary Technician, Liz helped with important first aid training for their K9 partners. We are hopeful it won't be needed in the future, but happy they have the information and skills needed to better help their amazing K9 officers if they should be injured in the line of duty.

THANK YOU to all that protect and serve, both human and canine, our communities and keep them safe. We so very much appreciate YOU! 💙

Please help us in congratulating Stacey on passing the Veterinary Technician National Exam (VTNE)! 🥳🎉 The VTNE is the national exam administered by the American Association of Veterinary State Boards for veterinary technicians to earn their credentials and become a certified veterinary technician.

Stacey began her journey at our hospitals as a veterinary assistant in 2021. When asked why she chose veterinary medicine, Stacey said, "Animals are an integral part of our community, families, and lives. I want to be an advocate for them so they always get the best care. I've wanted to be in veterinary medicine since I was a little kid and I truly have the best job in the world."

CONGRATULATIONS STACEY, we are so incredibly proud of you, all your hard work, and very grateful to have you on our emergency and oncology teams! ❤🐾

Pictured below is Stacey with her cancer fighting hero, Connie after she finished chemotherapy treatment for lymphoma! 🎉

We're CELEBRATING Ollie!!!!! 🎉

Eight months ago this little guy was hit by a car. In addition to lacerations and wounds, he had a dislocated elbow and bone fracture on his front, left leg and fractures to his front, right leg along with missing 20% of his radius bone. Ollie was badly injured, and incredibly lucky to be alive.

Dr. King and her surgery team took over Ollie's care from our emergency department and were able to correct the dislocation and placed a pin in his left leg and an external fixture and bone graft into his right leg.

Over the last 8 months Ollie has been such a brave boy throughout his entire healing process and we are happy to report he has officially graduated from this chapter of his life and we know he and his family are looking forward to living life to the fullest now...on all 4 paws! Although we will miss seeing this sweetie, we are so happy for him and his family! ❤

Please help us in sending a great, big CONGRATULATIONS to Ollie on his incredible recovery! 🥳

Nani is GOING HOME!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

After almost 2 weeks of hospitalization, Nani is GOING HOME!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 We were ECSTATIC to see this little lady head home to her loving family after spending almost 2 weeks with us...and as you can imagine, it was pretty emotional for EVERYONE! Nani was brought to our hospital from her boarding facility with shallow breathing, low heartrate, and lethargy. Nani was having an anaphylactic reaction and our emergency care team immediately started treatment to stabilize her. While consulting with our board-certified Internal Medicine Specialist, Dr. Fitzpatrick, our team discovered that Nani had high levels of bilirubin, low platelets, and was anemic. Nani's condition was incredibly serious. After receiving treatment and oxygen therapy, Nani slowly began to improve and was ready to go home. Our medical team gave Nani and her family a very special surprise as they left the hospital! 🎉 Please help us in sending a GIGANTIC CONGRATULATIONS to Nani and her family! ❤
