If you are a client of mine and tonight find yourself celebrating this man’s murder, please do me a favor and find another vet. There is no justification for this.

***Good news- owner located
Lost dog! Anyone in AC know who this nice dog belongs to? 940-574-2200 We’ll keep her inside for tonight.

Today, we have a nice (hopefully non-controversial🙄) dog story with a happy ending that will give everyone a warm fuzzy feeling inside (except for those who don’t appreciate law enforcement, so if you are in that category please stop reading now and move along…..go on, get……without leaving any derogatory comments please🤨).

Meet Blaze. Blaze is a seven year old Belgian Malinois law enforcement canine, retired from the U.S. Border Patrol. Blaze spent many years faithfully serving our country by sniffing out illegal drugs and protecting our border. When Blaze’s handler retired from his service in the Border Patrol, it was decided to allow Blaze to retire also. So Blaze’s handler and his wife were allowed to adopt Blaze as their own.

In early April, Blaze started feeling bad. He was lethargic, not eating, and acting like his neck hurt. When he presented at the clinic he was obviously in pain and I thought he had pinched a nerve in his neck. After a few days of anti-inflammatories and pain medicine he didn’t get any better. So we had Blaze come back to the clinic in order to run some bloodwork. When my technician was pulling blood from his jugular vein she (Sam) noticed a slight swelling on his neck. The bloodwork showed a spike in his white blood cell count, so we assumed he had some type of infection under the skin of his neck. Over the next few days, despite being on some very good antibiotics, the skin on his ventral neck started to slough. And it kept sloughing, and sloughing, and sloughing.

In hindsight Blaze’s owners remembered him chasing a feral cat a few days before getting sick. So, I’m assuming it was a cat bite because they are known for creating large, nasty abscesses. The Mrs.Dr. Spears thinks it was a snake bite (despite the fact that the swelling took over a week to develop, which is very uncharacteristic of snakebites, and no snakes were seen).

So anyway….we’ll call it a “snake bite”😉.

Since Blaze had so much dead tissue hanging from the “snakebite”🙄, we decided it needed to be debrided. So we anesthetized Blaze, removed all the nasty stuff, sutured up what little we could, and planned to allow it to heal as best it could on its own, thinking it would probably require skin grafts due to its large size.

So for the last few months Blaze’s owners have been diligently administering antibiotics, both orally and topically, as well as doing hydro-therapy on the wound. Ultimately, Blaze healed so well that no skin grafts were needed.

These photos testify to the incredible and amazing healing ability of man’s best friend. And to the persistence and perseverance of Blaze’s dedicated owners.

Today, Blaze is running around chasing his ball like nothing even happened, and most people would never know Blaze had tangled with a vicious “snake”.😉

BREAKING NEWS!!
BREAKING NEWS!!

AFTER DECADES OF SEARCHING THE CENTER OF THE KAREN UNIVERSE HAS BEEN FINALLY DISCOVERED!!

How did Archer City Veterinary Clinic make this monumental, earth shattering discovery you ask🤷‍♂️ Well, allow me to explain how we discovered THE CENTER OF THE KAREN UNIVERSE!

On Monday we made a FB post trying to find a home for four dogs that were dumped on a county road in Wichita County. The words we used casually included the infinitesimally tiniest, miniscule, slightest, most inconsequential, teensy weensiest, microscopic, nanosized non-positive remark about the humane society not accepting dogs dumped in Wichita County. Within seconds of our post we discovered THE CENTER OF THE KAREN UNIVERSE!

The karens came out of the karen woodwork like a hoard of angry fire ants whose mound was pelted with a single raindrop.

We had karens attacking Karens

karens attacking mustaches

karens attacking batman

karens giving out bad google reviews (3 so far but more to come I’m sure🙄)

karens wanting to kick our ass

karens disparaging our mothers

karens going to smear our name far and wide

It was-
A karenucopia of karens
A karenpocolypse
A karensortium
A karenmageddon
A karevalanche
A karenocracy
A karenclave
The karenthinians
The karenwraiths
A karenvention
A karenopolis

So where is the CENTER OF THE KAREN UNIVERSE?

Drum roll please….

THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF WICHITA COUNTY

Have to hand it to the Humane Society- the karen is strong with you!

We would like to make it known that this post in no way means to disparage any one named Karen- ie those whose legal name is Karen. This post only applies to karens, with a small k. Small as in thin, like the skin of karens. Or you could say short k, like the short girl queen karen herself at THE CENTER OF THE KAREN UNIVERSE!

Hold on karens, before you start doing your karen thing. We do recognize that the folks at Humane Society do have a noble heart of compassion for pets. And we do very much appreciate the work they do to care for unwanted pets in our area and acknowledge that this work can be very difficult and heart wrenching. We thank you for what you do. ✌🏻

Release the karens!😉🫣

******Update #2: Thankfully all 4 of the dogs have been adopted! Those things were some pooping fools so I’m very glad to see them move to their new home. Two of them were spayed/neutered today and the other two will be in the near future. They will also return soon for booster shots, all at no cost to the new owners. Thanks to everyone for sharing this post!

Free to a good home: Last Wednesday evening these dogs were dumped on a county road close to Holliday. I didn’t want them to get run over so I took them home, thinking I would take them to the Humane Society the next day. Come to find out the Humane Society wouldn’t take them (thought that was the purpose of the Humane Society- to give people an alternative to just dumping dogs in the country). So anyway, now we are trying to find homes for them. There are three, approximately 4 month old, puppies (2 white female, 1 brown male) and a female (tan colored) approximately 2 years old. They are all very friendly. Archer City Veterinary Clinic will vaccinate and spay/neuter them at no cost. They are very bonded to one another so it would be ideal to adopt them out in pairs or all together. Stop by the clinic if you are interested.

Archer City Veterinary Clinic would like to wish Jaci Shepherd a very happy 19th birthday! Jaci recently graduated from Holliday High School and will be attending Tarleton State University in the fall. This is Jaci’s second summer working as a vet tech at the clinic and we’re glad to have her while Hannah is out on maternity leave. Jaci is a real character and her quick wit keeps us laughing. And she’s definitely isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty- anytime anything really gross or disgusting presents itself, like a lot of blood, pus, maggots, or horrible smelling infected wounds, Jaci’s eyes get real big and she’ll say “OH COOL!” as she dives right in to help out. It’s been a real joy to have Jaci around this summer and we’ll be sad to see her go off to college. But being around good kids like her and Sara Jones gives us confidence in our country’s future and proves the benefits of good parenting. Happy Birthday Jaci!

Low Cost Vaccination Clinic
On Saturday, May 31st Archer City Veterinary Clinic in conjunction with City of Archer City, Texas will have a vaccination clinic from 8:00 to 11:00am on the sidewalk in front of the clinic, right across from the courthouse. Rabies vaccinations, as well as distemper/parvo for dogs and fvrcp for cats, will be $15 each- CASH ONLY. We will also have Bravecto for sale to treat fleas. City employees will be present to sell dog licenses. In an effort to reduce the drama- PLEASE MAKE SURE ALL DOGS ARE LEASHED AND CATS ARE IN CARRIERS. We will hope to see you there, for good weather, and for folks with 25 foot extendable dog leashes to learn how to keep the leash from extending out all those 25 feet🙄.

Please help us welcome Sara Jones to Archer City Veterinary Clinic. Sara is a Holliday High School graduate and a senior Animal Science major at Texas A&M University- Whoop! Sara wants to be a vet and is getting some good experience working at the clinic this summer. Sara is super smart, a very hard worker, and has a perpetual smile on her face. Stop in and say hi to her.

Good news- owner found!
Archer City folks- does anyone know who this dog belongs to? She was found just now by American National Bank. Call the clinic at 940-574-2200 if she’s yours.

Rattlesnake Vaccine Shortage!
Archer City Veterinary Clinic received word yesterday that the USDA is refusing to renew the license for the sole manufacturer of canine rattlesnake vaccine (see attached letter). Currently we have 33 doses of vaccine and our distributor is already out of stock. We will administer these last few doses on a first come, first served basis. Since this involves the federal government there is no telling when or if this situation will be resolved.

Found myself in the doghouse last week. When I made the post announcing the employment of Amber, Hannah put her hand on her hip and said “uhhh!! you didn’t make a post about me when I got hired!” So Hannah…here’s your post🙄

Hannah is from Paris (Texas) and is a Kansas State grad. She lives in Seymour where her husband (Jay) is a cowboy doing day work. If you need a good hand working cattle give Hannah a shout at the clinic.

Even though Hannah is a very experienced vet tech, we have her mostly answering the phone and sitting at the front desk since her due date is approaching soon. This will be kid #2 for her.

Hannah is a great employee with a very cheerful demeanor. She applied for a job when we weren’t even looking, but when a good one walks in the door it’s best to get them hired on.

I hope this post does the trick and gets me out of the doghouse. The last thing you want is a pregnant woman mad at you!🫣
