🐾🌟 Pet of the Month: Meet Eileen! 🌟🐾

Everyone, meet Eileen, the adorable 1.5-year-old Black Lab mix with a BIG personality and an even bigger heart! 🖤🐶

As a tripod, Eileen has her own special way of leaning into life — literally! 😉 But don't let that fool you. This sweet rescue girl loves adventure and is always ready to join her family for a trip to the beach, a visit to the dog park, or even a workout at the gym! 🏖️🐕💪

When she's not swimming or chasing her favorite tennis ball 🎾💦, Eileen is busy showing everyone just how sweet and gentle she is. She never strays too far from her favorite people and is always happy to tag along for the next adventure. ❤️

But our favorite fun fact? Eileen's family calls her the “Jumping Bean”! 🫘 When she gets REALLY excited, she jumps straight up in the air, twists her body, and kicks out her back leg. Talk about having your own signature dance move! 😂💃🐾

Help us celebrate Eileen as our Pet of the Month! We love seeing rescue pups living their best lives and reminding us that a little extra wiggle never gets in the way of a whole lot of love. 🥰🐾

Drop a ❤️ in the comments for Eileen and her incredible jumping-bean moves!

🎃👻 THE COUNTDOWN CONTINUES! 👻🎃

Ozzie had one very important decision to make…

“What am I going to be for Halloween?” 🤔🎃

And apparently, choosing just ONE costume was simply too difficult! 😂🐾 So Ozzie decided to try on a few different looks before the big night. 👻🕷️🎃

Honestly, we can’t blame him… when you look this cute, why limit yourself to just one costume?! 🥹🧡

Which Ozzie look is your favorite? 👇

🐾💚 Saturday Success Story: Meet Sadie! 🐶🪨

This sweet Labrador gave us a scare recently when she stopped feeling her best and started vomiting. 🤢

During her exam, we noticed she was dehydrated and had melena (dark, tarry stool that indicates digestive bleeding). 🩺 We also spotted actual dirt and gravel in her stools! 😳🪨 X-rays confirmed the mystery: Sadie’s stomach was full of gravel, causing a partial blockage.

💧 We initially hoped a day of IV fluids, anti-nausea meds, and rest would help her pass the rocks naturally. But when her tummy stayed tender and the gravel wouldn't budge on repeat X-rays, it was time for surgery. 🏥

🔬 Dr. Lawrence to the rescue! 👩‍⚕️ Dr. Lawrence carefully cleared Sadie’s stomach of all the sand and rock pieces, restoring normal digestive flow. While inside, Dr. Lawrence also performed a prophylactic gastropexy—a procedure that tacks the stomach to the abdominal wall to help prevent life-threatening stomach twisting (GDV) in the future. 🐕‍🦺 Labradors are among the breeds at higher risk for this condition.

💪 Sadie was an absolute champ! 🥹💚 She woke up smoothly and was able to head home that evening with a full suite of medications. Because rocks and sand are so abrasive to the delicate stomach lining, her first few days required extra TLC. 🛏️💕 Thanks to her family’s incredible care, Sadie made a full recovery! 🎉

🐶✨ Today, sweet Sadie is back to feeling fantastic—and officially sticking to REAL dog food from now on! 😂🪨🚫

The moral of Sadie's story? Our four-legged friends can get into some pretty unexpected trouble! If your pet is vomiting, acting uncomfortable, or showing changes in their stool, don't wait to have them checked out. ❤️🐾
