Meet Duvalin

He was brought to us lateral and unresponsive—tiny (just over 1 lb) and dangerously hypoglycemic with a very low body temperature. After careful warming, IV dextrose, and supportive care, he spent two days hospitalized and made a full recovery.

Hypoglycemia can happen fast in very small puppies and kittens, especially toy breeds or the runts.

Watch for: wobbliness, weakness, crying, tremors, staring, collapse, or not waking to eat.

Prevention tips: frequent small meals, keep them warm/dry, don’t skip feedings, and seek veterinary care at the first sign of lethargy or refusal to eat.

We’re so proud of this little fighter—and grateful to his people for acting quickly.

Chili came to see us after her family noticed that her face had suddenly started to swell following a recent vaccination. This type of reaction can occasionally happen after vaccines — it’s called a vaccine hypersensitivity reaction.

While most pets handle vaccines without any issues, some may experience mild swelling, hives, or itchiness. In rare cases, more serious allergic reactions can occur and need prompt treatment.

Thankfully, Chili’s family acted quickly and brought her right in! With timely care, her swelling resolved, and she’s now feeling much better — and looking as cute as ever.

If your pet ever shows swelling, hives, vomiting, or sudden lethargy after a vaccine, it’s always safest to call your vet right away. Most reactions are treatable when caught early!

Obito came to us after swallowing a sewing needle and thread: a surprisingly common but very dangerous situation for cats. We had to surgically remove both the needle and the string to keep him safe.

The needle can easily puncture or perforate the stomach or intestines, leading to severe infection or internal bleeding. And even without the needle, the string alone can cause what’s called a linear foreign body — where it gets caught in the intestines, causing them to bunch up, tear, or even rupture. Both can be life-threatening emergencies.

Thankfully, Obito’s family acted quickly, and our team was able to remove everything safely. He’s now on the mend and feeling much better!

This is a good reminder to keep thread, string, and other small objects safely out of reach — cats are naturally curious, and sometimes their curiosity gets the best of them!

Jordan, a little Yorkie, first came to us after being attacked by another dog. His injuries were serious and required stitches to help him heal.

Today he was back for his suture removal — and we’re happy to say he’s fully recovered! He’s back to his normal, spunky self and more than ready to finally ditch the cone.

We’re proud of how tough this little guy is and glad we could be part of his recovery.

This is Gordo! He came to us after being attacked by another dog, which caused a proptosed eye (when the eye is forced out of its socket). This is a painful, emergency condition that often requires surgery.

In Gordo’s case, the best treatment was to surgically remove the injured eye to keep him comfortable and prevent further complications. Dogs adjust incredibly well to life with one eye — and Gordo is proof!

We were thrilled to receive this photo of him now, fully recovered and back home where he’s happy, healthy, and just as lovable as ever.

What you should know about proptosed eyes:

Usually caused by trauma (such as dog fights, accidents, or rough play).

Immediate veterinary care is essential.

Even if an eye can’t be saved, pets can live a full, happy life after surgery.

Please join us in celebrating Gordo’s bravery and resilience by sending him some love in the comments below!

Over the weekend, Duke came to us after experiencing vomiting, diarrhea, and lethargy. These are common but serious warning signs in dogs — especially puppies and young adults.

We quickly tested him for parvovirus (parvo), a highly contagious and potentially life-threatening illness. Sadly, Duke’s test came back positive. He required hospitalization, IV fluids, medications, and close monitoring to give him the best chance at recovery.

What is Parvo?

Parvo is a virus that attacks the gastrointestinal tract, causing severe dehydration, weakness, and loss of appetite.

It spreads easily through infected stool, surfaces, or even on shoes and clothing.

Without treatment, parvo can be, and often is, fatal.

Prevention is Key
The best protection against parvo is making sure your dog’s vaccinations are up to date. Puppies are especially vulnerable, so keeping them on schedule is critical until their vaccine series is complete.

Please remember: if your dog shows signs like vomiting, diarrhea, or lethargy, don’t wait — seek veterinary care right away. Early treatment saves lives!

Tessa, an 8-year-old pittie, came to us after a few days of vomiting, lethargy, and refusing food. On exam she was clearly uncomfortable, and given her history we suspected a foreign body. X-rays confirmed it — a corn cob lodged in her intestines.

Corn cobs are one of the most common foreign objects we see in dogs. They’re easy for pets to chew and swallow, but almost impossible to pass, often leading to dangerous blockages.

Our surgical team performed an enterotomy (intestinal surgery) to remove the obstruction. We’re happy to share that Tessa is recovering well and already showing signs of feeling much better.

If your dog is ever vomiting, not eating, lethargic, or painful in the belly, don’t wait — these may be signs of a foreign body that requires urgent care.

We’re so glad Tessa is on the mend and back on her road to recovery!

Ghost, a sweet pittie, came to us after swallowing something he definitely shouldn’t have — a rock. His X-rays showed the obstruction clearly, and surgery was the only way to get him back on track. Our team performed an enterotomy (a surgery to open the intestines) and successfully removed the rock.

Thanks to a payment plan through VetBilling.com, Ghost’s family was able to move forward with the treatment he needed. We’re happy to share that Ghost is now fully recovered and back to his happy, tail-wagging self!

Foreign objects like rocks, toys, and corn cobs are some of the most common emergencies we see. They can cause dangerous blockages that require urgent surgery. Signs of a possible foreign body include:
⚠️ Vomiting
⚠️ Loss of appetite
⚠️ Lethargy
⚠️ Abdominal discomfort

We’re so glad Ghost is feeling better — and this story is a reminder that safe, affordable care options exist when unexpected emergencies happen.
