As flowers bloom, so do risks for our pets, with plenty of opportunity for them to breathe in particles, scratch an eye, poke a paw, or even get snagged by a branch or thorn, all of which could potentially lead to infections.

Infections can be sneaky subtle—If your pet is not acting right and you are not sure what it is, get them checked! Like with most conditions, the sooner we treat an infection, the better your pet will feel.

🍔 A burger… made their way 🐾
Today is National Hamburger Day, but your pet doesn’t need the drive-thru version to feel included.

In fact, many classic burger ingredients—like onions, garlic, and heavy seasoning—can upset their stomach (or worse). The good news? You can still treat them—just a little differently. Think:
🥩 Plain, lean protein
🥕 Pet-safe veggies
🚫 No added salt, spices, or toppings

Because the best treats aren’t the ones we share…they’re the ones we choose with them in mind. ❤️
If you’re ever unsure what’s safe, we’re always here to help!

Meet Dr. Kuhns! 🩺🐾💙

Dr. Kuhns grew up surrounded by animals and discovered her passion for veterinary medicine at a young age, volunteering at a wildlife sanctuary and working as a kennel assistant by just 13 years old! She brings compassion, dedication, and a love for caring for furry, feathered, and scaly family members alike.
We’re so excited to have her on our team and we know your pets will love her just as much as we do!🐶✨

It’s Chip Your Pet Month (no…not that chip as much as they want it 🥔)
Pets that are microchipped have significantly higher reunion rates if they get lost—so you can have more moments like these. ​

Huge congratulations to our newest LVT graduates! 🎓🐾

Last night, four of our incredible team members graduated from the NOVA Veterinary Technology Program, and we could not be more proud of them. Their hard work, dedication, long nights, and passion for patient care have all led to this amazing accomplishment.

What made the evening even more special was seeing so many of our team members there cheering them on. Supporting each other through every stage of growth is one of the things that makes our hospital family so special. 💙

Please help us congratulate our graduates on this huge milestone! We can’t wait to see all the amazing things they accomplish as veterinary technicians! ✨

It’s International Chihuahua Appreciation Day! While some may think “Chihuahuas are all the same” we know that’s not true (ok…they are all a little sassy…in the best way).

Do you have a chihuahua in your life? Which type?

🤡 Clown “I exist purely for entertainment (and mild destruction).”
👑Tiny Tyrant: “I run this house. Everyone else just lives here.”
✨Icon: “I am not a dog. I am a lifestyle.”
All of the above

Sweet Oliver came in for his vaccines today and did amazing !💉✨
One of our favorite ways to help puppies have a positive experience at the vet is using lick mats and yummy treats during their visit. It keeps them distracted, happy, and helps create good memories from the very start !💙🐾
