Everyone meet Birdie Sue 🐾💙
This sweet little girl is 11 weeks old and already stealing hearts everywhere she goes. Between the tiny paws, curious eyes, and playful personality, we’re pretty sure she knows just how adorable she is. 🦴✨

Any guesses on what breed she is? 👀❓️

“We loved having sibling duo Biscuits and Gravy stay with us! 🐾 Their names are just as fun and unforgettable as their personalities. Whether they were climbing the cat tree or relaxing together, these two brought so much joy during their visit. 💛

And a big congratulations to their amazing cat mom, who will soon be graduating from dental school! 🦷🎓 Such an exciting accomplishment — Biscuits and Gravy must be so proud of her too!

Meet Winston 🐶💙

A few weeks ago, this sweet pup came to see us after injuring his knee. X-rays showed a fracture (tibial crest avulsion fracture) where the tendon attaches to the front of the shin bone — a painful injury that can make it very difficult to walk comfortably.

Because injuries like this often need specialized surgical care, we immediately contacted our traveling DVM who performs orthopedic surgery. Winston did wonderfully through surgery, and his post-op X-rays show everything healing beautifully! 🩻✨

To help support his recovery and speed up healing, Winston has also been coming to our clinic weekly for laser therapy treatments, TENS and Passive Range of Motion exercises. These treatments help reduce inflammation, ease discomfort, and promote healing so he can get back to being a happy, playful puppy as soon as possible. 🐾

We’re so proud of Winston and thankful we could be part of his recovery journey!

Meet Anastasia and her beautiful babies. 🐾

This sweet momma did an amazing job delivering her litter safely on her own… all but one. After hours of labor and reviewing her x-rays, we feared the last kitten had sadly passed due to its position. Anastasia needed help quickly, and surgery became necessary to save her life.

During her spay surgery, we received the surprise none of us expected… the final kitten was ALIVE. ❤️

Because of quick action, a little hope, and a lot of care, Anastasia is now the proud momma of healthy, happy nursing kittens — including the tiny miracle we thought we had lost.

Today, Anastasia brought her babies back to visit us for their very first appointment, and seeing this little family thriving together was the sweetest reminder of why we do what we do. 🐱✨

🐾 May is Arthritis Awareness Month 🐾

This month, our clinic is helping raise awareness about canine arthritis and the importance of early detection and supportive care for our pets.

Arthritis is one of the most common conditions affecting dogs, especially as they age. Many pets experience joint pain and stiffness long before signs become obvious.

Common signs of arthritis may include:
• Stiffness or limping
• Difficulty standing or lying down
• Trouble with stairs or jumping
• Slower walks or less interest in play
• Changes in mood or behavior

The good news is there are many ways to help improve your dog’s comfort and quality of life through:
✔ Pain management
✔ Weight management
✔ Joint support therapies
✔ Mobility support recommendations
✔ Personalized treatment plans

During Arthritis Awareness Month, take a moment to pay attention to changes in your pet’s mobility and comfort. Early intervention can make a big difference.

If you have questions about your dog’s joint health or would like to schedule an evaluation, our team is here to help. 🩵



Osteoarthritis is a common problem in dogs, particularly in seniors and large breeds. Here are the best ways to manage your dog's osteoarthritis.
