We’re thrilled to announce that CVT Kayli is rejoining the East Valley team!

Kayli worked with us before moving to California in May 2023, then relocated to Oregon in January 2024. Now she and her husband Cole, along with their four cats Winston, Wilbur, Edgar and George 🐾 are officially back in Minnesota and we couldn't be happier!

Be sure to give her a warm welcome when you see her around the clinic! 🤗

Know the difference between urgent care and emergency services before a crisis happens.

Some pet health concerns need immediate attention, but not every situation requires the ER. Understanding where to go and when can save time, money, and stress during urgent moments.

When you let the doctor take the selfie 🤳🏼😊

Huge thanks to Lincoln Memorial University and the SAVMA students for having Dr. Darren Taul kick off your first day with a talk on “Opportunities in Vet Med”! He covered everything from AVMA and SAVMA to practice ownership, mixed practice, VMG, AAHA, and of course - Lakefield externships and career opportunities. He promises that next time he will work on his selfie technique.

This is Chorizo! 🐶 He broke a toenail, which might sound minor, but it can actually be painful and prone to infection.
He’s rocking an e-collar and a bandage to keep the area clean while it heals!
Broken or torn nails are a common injury in dogs, especially active pups. If your dog is suddenly limping, licking their paw, or you see blood near the nail, give us a call.
Sending Chorizo lots of love and a speedy recovery! 💛🐾

Help Animals Impacted by the Texas Flooding 🐾💙

The recent flooding in Texas has displaced countless families and their pets. Kerrville Pets Alive is working tirelessly to rescue, shelter, reunite, and care for animals affected by this disaster — but they can’t do it alone.

We’ve set up a fundraiser through our Instagram and pages, and 100% of the funds will go directly to Kerrville Pets Alive to help provide food, medical care, and safe shelter for pets in crisis.

To amplify your impact, Lakefield Veterinary Group will match donations dollar-for-dollar, up to $10,000. Your gift will go twice as far to help animals who need us most. Please share!

🎆 Fireworks can be fun for us — but scary for our pets! Here are five quick tips to help keep your furry family members safe and calm this Fourth of July:
• Make sure your pet’s ID tags and microchip info are up to date
• Take them for a long walk or play session during the day
• Double-check that your yard and fence are secure
• Turn on the TV or radio to help drown out the fireworks noise
• Stay home if you can — your comfort matters most to them

A little planning goes a long way. Wishing you and your pets a safe, relaxing holiday — enjoy the BBQs, fireworks (from a distance!), and time with family and friends! 🇺🇸🌭
