🚨 WEEKEND URGENT CARE REMINDER! 🚨

It’s Friday—which apparently means every pet in Oklahoma has officially been given permission to:

Eat something they shouldn’t
🐶 Fight with their sibling
🐶 Find a mysterious object in the yard
🐶 Start limping for absolutely no obvious reason
🐶 Develop an ear infection at 8 PM
🐶 Somehow injure an eyeball 😅

If your pet decides to make questionable weekend choices, Hartfield Veterinary Clinic Urgent Care in Mannford is here to help.

📞 (918) 771-2721

Hopefully you don’t need us—but we’re here if you do! ❤️🐾

🩺🐾 DID YOU KNOW?

A yearly veterinary visit is about a LOT more than vaccines!

During a wellness exam, we’re checking your pet from nose to tail—including:

🦷 Teeth and gums
❤️ Heart
🫁 Lungs
👀 Eyes
👂 Ears
🦴 Joints and mobility
🧴 Skin and coat
⚖️ Weight and body condition
🐾 Lumps, bumps, and other changes

Finding problems early can give us more options for treatment and help keep your pet feeling their best longer.
