✨ Meet Bao! ✨

Congratulations to Bao for officially earning the title of Best Patient with the Sweetest Face! 🥹🐾💗

This little girl was super social, incredibly brave, and an absolute dream for her appointment. Honestly, we’re pretty sure the visit was more for our benefit than hers because we just couldn’t get enough of that adorable face! 😍

10/10 patient. 100/10 cuddle potential. 💕🐶

We’ll see you next time, Bao! 🥰

Time flies when you’re growing up! 🐾💕

Kiko & Koki first came to see us for their kitten appointments back in May, and now look at them! They’ve grown so much and came back for their spay rechecks. 🥰

Not only are they bigger, but they’re looking so much more confident this time around! It’s always so fun watching our little patients grow. 💗🐱

A big thank you to Koopie’s dad for letting us spend some extra time with this sweet boy 🥹🐾 — AND for treating the team to some delicious drinks! 🍵💕

Koopie came in for his sedation radiographs and was an absolute superstar throughout his visit. ⭐️ He was such a wonderful boy and definitely made our day a little brighter! 🥰

We love you, Koopie! 🐶🩷

Lucy visited Dr. Mary yesterday for her annual checkup, and we’re so proud of how well she did! 💙

With the help of her pre-visit medications, Lucy was much more relaxed and comfortable during her appointment. These medications can make a big difference for pets who feel anxious about visiting the veterinary hospital, helping create a calmer, more positive experience for everyone.

If your pet gets nervous before veterinary visits, talk to our team about whether pre-visit medications could help. We’re here to make every visit as stress-free as possible—for you and your pet. 🐾

✨ Dr. Mary has a few appointment openings available today! If your pet is due for a checkup or you’ve been meaning to book an appointment, give us a call—we’d love to see you and your furry family member!

☀️🐾 Warmer days are here, and that means more adventures for our furry friends! Whether it’s sunny walks, backyard playtime, hiking trails, or catio lounging, pets are spending more time outdoors and exploring the world around them.

As outdoor activity increases, so does exposure to parasites and contagious diseases. Make sure your pet is protected by staying up to date on:
✔️ Vaccinations
✔️ Parasite prevention (fleas, ticks, heartworm, and intestinal parasites)
✔️ Annual f***l testing

Prevention is one of the easiest ways to keep your pet happy, healthy, and ready for all their warm-weather adventures! 🌿🐕🐈

Give our team a call to book your pet’s wellness visit and make sure they’re covered for the season ahead. 💙

🐾 Tick Check Challenge: 60 Seconds That Matters! 🐾

After every outdoor adventure, take just one minute to check your pet for ticks.

🔍 Common hiding spots:
👂 Around the ears
👀 Around the eyes
🦴 Under collars and harnesses
🐾 Between the toes
🦵 Under the legs and around the groin
🐕 Around the tail

Finding a tick early can help reduce the risk of disease transmission for both pets and people.

💡 Did You Know?
Ticks can hitch a ride into your home and may attach to family members too. Protecting your pet helps protect your household.

📅 Make tick checks part of your post-walk routine and don’t forget to stay up to date with parasite prevention.

Have questions about the best flea and tick protection for your pet? Our team is here to help!
