RECOVERY TIME = CUDDLE TIME!

At South Shore Animal Services, we take our post-surgery snuggles VERY seriously!

Once our furry patients are waking up from anesthesia, our amazing veterinary team is right there to provide extra love, comfort, and reassurance. Because sometimes the best part of recovery is having someone by your side for a little TLC!

And let's be real… our staff NEVER misses an opportunity for some puppy kisses, kitty cuddles, or a good old-fashioned snuggle session!

We love what we do, and these sweet moments remind us why!

To our wonderful clients: Thank you for trusting us with your precious fur babies. We promise to treat them with the same love and compassion we give our own.

🎃👻 HALLOWEEN IS TOMORROW… AND THINGS ARE STARTING TO GET WEIRD 👻🎃

The staff has been talking, and we’ve officially decided there’s only ONE Dr. Jason… and frankly, that’s just not enough. 😂

So this Halloween, we’re taking matters into our own hands.

🧪 OPERATION: CLONE DR. JASON 🧪

Why clone him?

🩺 Talented veterinarian? CHECK.
❤️ Truly cares about your animals? CHECK.
😂 Keeps us laughing? CHECK.
🐾 Can somehow handle pets, clients AND this staff? SUPERHUMAN.

And while the rest of us are preparing for the cloning process, Dr. Judy is working quietly behind the scenes, making sure this entire operation is a success. 👩‍🔬😈

After all, every questionable scientific experiment needs an experienced veterinarian supervising it. 😂

🎃 From all of us at South Shore Animal Services, we wish you, your family, and your four-legged trick-or-treaters a very HAPPY and SAFE HALLOWEEN! 🐾🧡👻

Keep the chocolate for the humans, the treats pet-friendly, and the costumes fabulous! 🍫🚫🐶🐱

Now… back to the laboratory. Dr. Judy has clones to make. 🧪😂

💗🐾 WE CAME. WE ATE. WE WORE PINK. 🐾💗

And just like that… Vet Tech Appreciation Week is a wrap! 🎬

The South Shore Animal Services crew finished the week the way veterinary professionals deserve to finish EVERYTHING — with someone else cooking breakfast. 😂🥞☕🍳

We took over First Watch in Hanover this morning to celebrate our fabulous Vet Techs — Kelly, Kiyana, Raymond, Sam & Lexi! 🐾

These are the people who can restrain a 100-pound dog, negotiate with an angry 8-pound cat, dodge bodily fluids before 9 AM, find a vein when nobody else can, AND somehow still ask, “Who needs help?” 😳👏

Basically… superheroes. Just with more fur on their clothes. 🦸‍♀️🐕🐈

And since it’s October, the crew showed up in PINK for Breast Cancer Awareness Month! 🎀💕

Today’s official stats:

💗 Pink: UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT
🥞 Breakfast: DEMOLISHED
☕ Coffee: MEDICALLY NECESSARY
🐾 Vet Techs: ABSOLUTE ROCKSTARS
😂 Normal group photo: We did our best.

Vet Tech Week may officially be over, but we appreciate this crazy, compassionate, hardworking crew EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.

Breakfast is over, the coffee has kicked in, and the pink scrubs are ready… SEE YOU AT THE OFFICE! 💗🐾😂

🐾 Happy Vet Tech Week to our amazing South Shore Animal Services team—Kelly, Kiyana, Raymond, Sam, and Lexi! 💙

Behind every exam, procedure, and nervous pet is a caring team offering skilled hands, gentle reassurance, and plenty of love.

Thank you for the compassion, hard work, humor, and heart you bring to the clinic every day. From the messy moments to the happy tail wags, you show up for our patients, their families, and one another—and we are so grateful for each of you!

Please join us in giving this crew some well-deserved love in the comments! 👏🐶🐱

🇺🇸 Happy Labor Day from South Shore Animal Services! 🐾

As summer begins to wind down, we’re looking back on some of the wonderful memories our team made together this season—including a fun-filled day at Franklin Park Zoo! 🦁🐯🐒

Our summer outing gives our hardworking team a chance to step away from the clinic, relax, laugh, and enjoy time together outside of work. We’re a small team, and the relationships we build with one another are an important part of the compassionate care we provide every day.

This Labor Day, we want to recognize our amazing South Shore Animal Services team for their hard work, dedication, and commitment to the animals and families we serve. 🐾

We’re also incredibly thankful for our clients and community who continue to support us and allow us to do what we love.

Happy Labor Day from all of us at South Shore Animal Services! 🇺🇸
Here’s to a great summer and an even better fall ahead!

📸🎒 BACK-TO-SCHOOL PICTURE DAY! 🎒📸

Name: Dogue de Bordeaux 🐶
Grade: Puppy School 🎓
Favorite Subject: Snack Time 🦴
Best Skill: Looking adorable ❤️
Needs Improvement: Personal space…and drooling 😂

It’s back-to-school season, and our kids aren’t the only ones who have important things to learn!

For puppies, their first year is their own version of school. Early training and positive experiences help teach them the skills they’ll need throughout their lives.

📚 Puppy Curriculum:

🐾 Manners 101 — Sit, stay, come & leave it
🐾 Social Studies — Meeting new people, pets & experiencing new places
🐾 Physical Education — Walking nicely on a leash
🐾 Health Class — Getting comfortable with ears, paws, teeth & routine handling
🐾 Field Trips — Positive visits to the veterinary office
🐾 Life Skills — Building confidence, patience & good behavior

And when your adorable little student is a Dogue de Bordeaux who may grow to well over 100 pounds, starting those lessons early can make a BIG difference! 😄

Early training and socialization can help puppies become confident, well-adjusted adult dogs and make everyday experiences like veterinary exams, nail trims, walks, and meeting new people much easier.

🍎📚 Here’s to a great school year for students with two legs AND four!

🚨 WARNING: Reading this post could leave more money in YOUR bank account! 🏦💰😹🐶

Let's face it... vet bills shouldn't make you want to hide under the bed like your cat or dog during a thunderstorm! 😹 🐶

At South Shore Animal Services, we believe every dog 🐶 and cat 🐱 deserves exceptional veterinary care—and every pet owner deserves prices that don't cause heart palpitations.

That's why we're committed to providing affordable, compassionate, high-quality veterinary care that helps you keep more of your hard-earned money where it belongs... in YOUR bank account! 💵

🏦 If you're visiting South Shore Bank in Hanover, be sure to stop by and check out our display in the lobby!

🎁 While you're there, help yourself to a few goodies!
🦴 A stress relief bone... for YOU (not your pet! 😉)
🐾 A free leash for your four-legged best friend
🥫 A pet food can cover to help keep mealtime fresh

Because...
🐾 The only thing that should be maxed out is your dog's excitement when you grab the leash.
🐾 The only surprise should be your cat deciding to cuddle.
🐾 And the only deposits you should worry about are the ones going into your savings account—not unexpected veterinary bills.

❤️ Affordable care. Compassionate care. Quality care.

At South Shore Animal Services, we're proud to help keep tails wagging, whiskers twitching, and wallets smiling! 😊

Meet the Team: Kiersten

Kiersten has been part of the South Shore Animal Services family for years, and we've loved watching her grow into the incredible veterinary professional she is becoming.

A lifelong animal lover with a passion for helping pets, Kiersten first joined our team while she was in high school as a part-time kennel attendant. Today, she is attending college, studying pre-veterinary medicine with the goal of becoming a veterinarian.

Through hard work, dedication, and a genuine love for veterinary medicine, she has grown from kennel attendant and now serves as an all-around Veterinary Technician, assisting both Dr. Judy and Dr. Jason every day.

Working alongside our veterinarians, Kiersten has the opportunity to observe surgeries and gain valuable hands-on experience that continues to broaden her veterinary education. Her eagerness to learn, compassionate care, and positive attitude make her an important part of our team and a comforting presence for both our patients and their families.

We're incredibly proud of everything Kiersten has accomplished and are excited to watch her continue pursuing her dream of becoming a veterinarian.

Thank you, Kiersten, for your hard work, kindness, and dedication to the animals we care for. We are so fortunate to have you as part of the South Shore Animal Services family!
