Pippin was in today for her spay procedure, and she did amazing! Not only was she a perfect patient, but she was also a natural in front of the camera. We could have taken photos of her all day long! 📸✨

We’re so proud of this sweet girl and wish her a smooth and speedy recovery. We can’t wait to see you again, Pippin! ❤️

Introducing Nefarious! aka Niffy! 🦷🐾

This handsome little guy is a familiar face at Petworks! Nefarious was originally referred to Dr. Farrow as a young pup for the removal of an impacted tooth. Lucky for us, he loves visiting so much that he came back this week—this time for a loose and abscessed tooth.

As always, he was an excellent patient and charmed everyone he met. We love when Nefarious comes to visit and can’t wait to see him again (hopefully just for a social call next time)! ❤️🐶

Meet this lucky boy, Lucky! 🍀🐾

Lucky was in this week with his emotional support monkey to see Dr. Farrow for his TPLO surgery.

I’d say he definitely lives up to his name! This brave boy has already been through a total hip replacement and is now recovering from a TPLO. Through it all, he’s been an absolute superstar patient. 💙

Wishing you a smooth recovery, Lucky — and a big thank you to your trusty monkey for providing moral support every step of the way! 🐵

Meet beautiful Bella! 🐾

Bella was in to see Dr. Farrow this week for her second TPLO surgery. She was an absolute superstar patient and is now back home recovering — something she’s become quite the pro at! 💕

A friendly reminder that the first 8 weeks after TPLO surgery are crucial for healing. Even when dogs start feeling better and acting like themselves again, the bone is still healing and needs time.

Thank you for being such a brave and sweet girl, Bella! We can’t wait to see you back for your rechecks. ❤️🐶

Dotty has officially been diagnosed with a case of the itchies. 🐾😬

Upon examination, we discovered the culprit was those sneaky little parasites!

While giant stuffed bugs are easy to spot, the real ones are experts at hiding. Don’t wait until your pet has unwanted hitchhikers. Flea and tick prevention is the best defense against these tiny criminals.

Give us a call to make sure your pet is covered 🐾

Miss Maggie came in this week for her spay procedure, and she was an absolute superstar! 💕🐾

She stole everyone’s hearts at the hospital — especially after getting all dressed up and having her hair done! ✨

Maggie was such a brave and sweet girl, and we are so happy to report she is home recovering comfortably. Wishing you a speedy recovery, Maggie — we can’t wait to see you again! 💖

🦷🐾 Sweet Maudie visited us at Petworks after being referred for facial swelling, dental disease, and concerns about an abscessed tooth. After an exam with Dr. Farrow and full-mouth dental X-rays, we confirmed that Maudie did indeed have an abscessed tooth.

Did you know?
When a tooth is severely abscessed, we often prescribe antibiotics before removing it. This helps reduce infection, inflammation, and swelling first — making anesthesia and surgery safer and more comfortable for your pet, while also improving healing and recovery.

After spending the day with us (and receiving plenty of cuddles 💕), Maudie successfully underwent a dental cleaning and had 4 teeth removed. She’ll be back to see us in 1–2 months to have her abscessed tooth taken care of once the infection has settled down.

Feel better soon, Maudie! 🐶🦷

Everyone meet Arthur!

Arthur came in this week for treatment of a meniscal tear in his stifle (knee) joint. His treatment plan included an arthroscopy — a minimally invasive procedure using a tiny fiber-optic camera to examine and treat the joint.

We are happy to report that Arthur was the bestest boy and is now home recovering comfortably. ❤️🐾
