🚨 WARNING: YOSHI IS A BLUR OF PURE HAPPINESS! 🚨

Meet Yoshi, a 1.5-year-old red retriever who apparently believes sitting still is highly overrated. 😂❤️

I would apologize for the blurry photo, but honestly… I won’t. It truly captures Yogi perfectly! This sweet boy was a nonstop-moving blur, bouncing between two of our technicians for a little playtime in between vaccines. Who has time to stand still when there are people to love and fun to be had?!

Vaccines? Check! Playtime? DOUBLE CHECK! Keeping everyone on their toes? ABSOLUTELY! 🤣

We love you, Yoshi! Never change, buddy! ❤️🐾

💕 Meet Karmyn! 💕

We had the tiniest little visitor stop by today, and she stole our hearts! 🥹🐾 This adorable Dachshund puppy weighs in at a whopping 2½ pounds and came in for her very first visit with us!

And can we talk about that ADORABLE little sweater?! 😍 She showed up dressed to impress and was easily one of the best-dressed patients of the day!

She may be tiny, but we’re sure there’s a BIG personality packed into that little body! 🌭❤️

Welcome to the Danville Veterinary Hospital family, Karmyn! We can’t wait to watch you grow (but we’re perfectly okay if you stay this little a bit longer)! 💕

Where did our little Bane go?! 😍 This handsome boy is growing up before our eyes and getting bigger by the day! He’s growing like a w**d, but somehow just keeps getting more handsome with every visit. 🌱🐾

We sure do love watching our patients grow up, even if we’re not quite ready for them to stop being little puppies! 💙🐶

🩸📖 Who says blood draws can’t come with a bedtime story?!

Heartworm testing is pretty simple! It only takes a quick blood draw of about 2 drops of blood to run the test. Easy peasy, right?

Well, Flint had a little more than 2 drops to spare, but he wasn’t exactly convinced this was a great idea. 😂

So, to ease his worries, Dr. Crystal pulled out a little reading material and treated him to a special reading of Babies in the Ocean, courtesy of one of our tech’s Happy Meals! 🌊🐠

Because sometimes a little extra TLC, a good book, and a whole lot of patience are just what the doctor ordered! ❤️

Flint, we promise the books are optional… but the heartworm tests are not! 😉

🌿🦃🎄 A little Thanksgiving, a little Christmas, and a whole lot of fun! 🎄🌿

A HUGE thank you to Dr. Crystal and our amazing friends at Poppy’s Plant Cottage for such a fun and creative team-building idea!

We enjoyed a Thanksgiving/Christmas pitch-in with a twist — building our very own plant terrariums! 🌱 Not only was it a fun way to spend time together outside of our usual workday, but we also got to learn something new under the guidance of the wonderful Poppy’s Plant Cottage, who provided everything we needed to create our own little green worlds.

We are so thankful for opportunities to grow together as a team (and now we get to watch our plants grow, too! 😉).

Thank you, Dr. Crystal and Poppy’s Plant Cottage, for making this such a memorable day! 💚

💖 Cardi B is in the house! 💖

Meet Cardi B, our big, beautiful Lab who has been dealing with ongoing lameness several months after knee surgery. To get a better look at what might be going on, our veterinary team recommended orthopedic radiographs. Because of the nature of these images and the positioning required, Cardi needed to have her radiographs taken under sedation.

And here’s an important reminder for all our pet parents! 🐾

When your veterinarian recommends sedated radiographs, it does NOT mean your pet is a bad dog (or cat)!

Radiographs can be intimidating for our furry friends. They’re placed on a table, asked to hold strange positions, and sometimes orthopedic imaging requires positioning that can be uncomfortable or even painful for an already sore patient.

Sedation helps our patients relax, allows our team to safely position them, and helps us obtain the best possible diagnostic images. It can make the entire experience much less stressful for everyone involved!

Cardi B is the PERFECT example of just how relaxing sedated radiographs can be. She got to take a little snooze while our team got the images needed to help figure out what’s going on with her knee. 😴💕

So next time your veterinarian recommends sedation for radiographs, remember: it’s not about your pet being naughty. It’s about keeping them comfortable, safe, and getting the answers they need!

Give Cardi B some love in the comments! 💗🐶

🐾 Meet Bruce & Ditka! 🐾

These two brothers may share a home, but they definitely have VERY different personalities! 😂

Bruce, our little Boston mix, is basically a four-legged energy drink. He’s got enough zoomies, excitement, and personality to keep everyone on their toes! ⚡🐶

Then there’s his big brother Ditka, a mixed-breed gentleman who’s a little older, a little calmer, and has absolutely mastered the art of cuddling. His motto? “If I can be cozy, I will be cozy.” 🥰

One brings the chaos, the other brings the cuddles, and together they make the perfect pair!
