Meet our patient of the week!
This is miss Zoi. Zoi is a Sulcata Tortoise. She has a rare shell deformity, causing her shell to grow inwards instead of out, pushing on her internal organs. To try and remedy this, Dr. Cupka has made Zoi a special brace around her shell that we tighten every few weeks to reverse the growth of her shell out.
Zoi has a very big personality and loves to try walking away from us as we’re working on her, so we suspend her in the air with some canned food! She is a very sweet girl, and we are hopeful this procedure will help extend her life span and overall comfort!

This is Gymie, a sweet and gentle 18yr old kitty cat, who loves chin scratches while he gets his subcutaneous fluids every other day. This handsome little man has been our patient since 2021 and is being treated for chronic kidney disease (CKD); this is very common in older cats. Although there is no cure for CKD, if detected early it can be managed with medications, fluids under the skin and even special diets in order to help them maintain a good quality of life. Like our Gymie who still loves to hunt mice and lizards! 💗🐱

Does your pet have stinky breath, crooked teeth, or nasty hair and tartar built up around their teeth?! Don’t worry- most pets do! Dental disease is the MOST COMMON clinical condition we see in pets. Many pet owners are unaware that routine dental cleanings are a core part of making sure our furry family members are taken care of.
We understand the financial impact a dentistry may have on you. During the month of February, dentals that are scheduled will receive 10% off of your total bill.
Swipe to the right to see a very satisfying dental cleaning done on a pet! Warning- it might be a little nasty, but the after is worth it.
