Tis the season for giving - and everyone deserves to feel the joys of the holidays 🎅

Very proud to be part of a team that cares so much about our community.

Heads up to our community and anyone who may have traveled to WPRA finals in Texas.

𝐄𝐇𝐕 𝐎𝐮𝐭𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐭

IN TEXAS

We have confirmed exposure risk for horses that attended the WPRA Finals on November 4-9 or the 377 Arena on November 15 and 16. If your horse was at either location, quarantine immediately for the next 14 days and do not leave the premises during this time.

If you have an appointment with us, please do not unload your horses. You may come inside to check in, but keep your horses in the trailer until a staff member comes out to assist you. This helps protect every horse on the property.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗘𝗛𝗩 𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘀
EHV spreads through nose to nose contact, shared buckets or tack, contaminated trailers, airborne droplets from coughing or snorting, and from people who handle exposed horses.

𝗦𝘆𝗺𝗽𝘁𝗼𝗺𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵
- Fever (Over 101.5)
- Nasal discharge
- Lethargy
- Hind end weakness or wobbliness
- Loss of tail tone or urine dribbling

Some cases progress to the neurological form, EHM, which is a medical emergency. Take temperatures twice daily and monitor closely.

Do not panic. Just be proactive. Good biosecurity, quarantine, and early symptom monitoring go a long way toward keeping your horse and the community safe.

If you have concerns or notice any symptoms, call immediately.

You spoke, we listened!
Payment plans that actually make a difference.

We understand that veterinary expenses can be stressful, and we never want financial concerns to stand in the way of the care your pet needs.

To better support our clients and community, we’re happy to share that we now offer Cherry Payment as an additional payment plan option. Cherry provides flexible, affordable monthly payments so you can move forward with treatment right away while spreading costs over time, with no deferred interest, higher approval ratings (even low credit scores), and you choose the repayment that works best for your budget.

Benefits of Cherry Payment Plans:

* Flexible Monthly Payments: Allows you to break your total bill into manageable monthly installments.

* Fast, Simple Application: Most clients receive approval decisions in seconds with a soft credit check that won’t affect your credit score.

* High Approval Rates: Cherry tends to approve a wide range of credit profiles, helping more pet owners access the care they need.

* No Delayed Treatment: You can move forward with recommended care right away instead of postponing due to cost.

* Transparent Terms: Clear payment schedules and no hidden fees make budgeting easier. No deferred interest.

* Control & Convenience: You can choose the payment plan length that best fits your situation, often directly from your phone, even from the comfort of your home.

* Support for Unexpected Costs: Helps reduce financial stress during emergencies or sudden health issues.

Our goal is—and always will be—to make quality care accessible and to be here for you in every way we can. If you’d like to learn more about Cherry or go over payment options before your next visit please follow the link and see how Cherry can help you and your furry family members.

We’re here to help, whether you have questions or need guidance finding the right care plan for your pet(s) and your budget.

Thank you for trusting us with your pet’s care.
It’s an honor to be part of their health journey.

As the weather gets colder and times stay tough for many, we want to give back to the community that means so much to us. 💕

This November, we’re hosting a Human & Pet Food Drive to help local families and animals in need. Donations can be dropped off at the clinic.

Human Food → Colville Food Bank & Kettle Falls Food Bank

Pet Food → Colville Valley Animal Sanctuary

Anyone (client or not!) who brings in a donation will be entered to win a $50 gift card to the Colville Country Store; 2 winners will be drawn at the end of the month.
Thank you to the amazing folks at the feed store for their generous donation and compassion for our communities!

Let’s fill bellies and hearts together this season — for both people and pets. 💕
