We finally jumped on the trend and started messing with ChatGPT. This is what it came up with when I asked it to turn Bandit into a knight and Boone into a cartoon. Have you used it on your pets? What did it come up with?

Happy Veterinary Receptionist Week to the ladies who ensure that we have patients to help and paperwork filled out correctly. This crew is the backbone of our practice and a vital part of the work we do.

Happy Easter
Friendly reminder that no matter how cute the little bunnies and chicks are, they are a 5-10 year commitment. Only purchase them if you know you can give them the time they deserve.

I think we all strive to find a job we love as much as Millie and Ellie love theirs.

🚨 Exciting News for Our Community!🚨

We are thrilled to announce the launch of a new program aimed at increasing the safety and security of our pets. We will be installing microchip scanning stations throughout the area in partnership with our local communities! 🐾

🔍 What does this mean for you?
These stations will help community members quickly scan for microchips and return pets home safely. Without the need for finding an open vet clinic or animal shelter to scan for a microchip. The stations will also provide other resources for returning pets to their families.
🌍 Where will the scanning stations be?
We’ll be placing them at key locations across the community to ensure they're easily accessible.

📅 When will they be installed?
The first station will be installed and up and running once we get funding.

Here is where you can help: We are looking for donors to help us raise our first $300 to install our first scanning station in City of Starbuck, MN at the City Hall Building.

We are accepting donations and sponsorships to help us fund these stations and the more money we raise, the more stations we will set up. Donate today: https://givebutter.com/ZUWfXK

Let’s work together to keep our community safe and connected. Share this post with your friends and help spread the word! 🐶🐱

Our pets help us with several aspects of our health. They encourage us to go for walks to help our physical health and their antics are good for our mental health. Cat purrs have been shown to help with healing. How do your pets affect your health?

Are you ready for summer vacation?
Our Four Paws Lodge is ready to take the worry out of boarding your furry friends and Luna here wants to tell you why.

Luna is a 1 year old Husky that was excited to have her first sleepover with us. On the second day of her stay Luna broke out into a seizure. Luckily for her she was surrounded by an amazing team of kennel and veterinary staff who recognized what was happening and within seconds had a doctor aware of her condition and were ready to move her to the clinic. In less time than it would have taken for another boarding facility to call the vet clinic she was being seen by Doctor Hannah Smith and on her way to being stabilized. Luna spent the rest of her stay being closely monitored by the medical staff at the Pet Care Center and went home healthy and happy.

Call (320) 762-0327 to reserve your spot. We even board cats.

Remember Shiloh from a couple weeks ago? She was in for puppy check x-rays.
We got a call from her humans today that she was in labor and had one puppy this morning. After a few hours where it looked like she was still in labor with no sign of another puppy they brought her in to be checked. One c-section later and she has two healthy babies. CVT Taylor (2) was the tech charged with caring for baby after surgery until Shiloh woke up. She got the baby dried off and its airway cleared. Now the whole tiny family is headed home to recover.

A look into veterinary medicine in Minnesota. There's no blizzard too strong to prevent the vet staff from eating ice cream.
