🐾💕We are celebrating our awesome Client Service Representatives, Katie and Tyeler, all this week for Veterinary Receptionist’s Week! They were gifted matching scrub tops today as a “thank you!” for all that they do for our hospital, our clients, and our patients. These ladies are our first lines of communication when our clients call/text/email for their pet care needs, they phone triage emergencies, help coordinate the schedule, and so much more. We are so proud to have Katie and Tyeler on our team! 🐶🐱

A good samaritan brought in a deceased feline she found on Highway 212. The feline is an intact male, large, solid gray and white color pattern, domestic shorthair. We are estimating his age to be between 1-2 years old. We will hold his body for a few weeks in case his owners are trying to find him. If this sounds like a kitty you are missing, please contact the hospital at 503-395-1649.

We wanted to take a moment to officially introduce and welcome Dr. Savannah Gucwa to the Happy Valley Vet Hospital team! Dr. Savannah may be a friendly face you recognize as we have worked with her often as a relief doctor at our hospital.

Originally from Southern California, Dr. Savannah received her undergraduate degree in Veterinary Science from the University of Arizona in Tucson, AZ. She graduated veterinary school from the Utah State University and Washington State University’s dual school program in 2021. During her training in veterinary school, she spent time assisting with research in Mongolia with their cashmere goats, as well as with research at the Utah Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory in Logan, Utah.

After vet school, she decided to stay in the Pacific Northwest region due to her love of the scenery and lifestyle. She has a great interest in feline medicine and acupuncture. Dr. Savannah frequently helps and fosters rescue cats with the assistance of her Australian Shepherd named Kiba, who she jokes is an “honorary cat.” In her free-time, Dr. Savannah likes traveling, practicing music, and engaging in crafting activities like leatherworking.

People across Oregon are being urged to avoid contact with sick or dead birds as highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) continues to impact wild and domestic bird populations across the state. There is currently no effective treatment for wild and domestic birds, and the virus can spread rapidly among bird populations and potentially to other wildlife.

What to do if you encounter groups of sick or dead wild birds

- Report groups of sick or dead wild birds to the Wildlife Health lab at 866-968-2600 or [email protected]. ODFW staff are monitoring and tracking continued mortalities. Samples may be collected in cases involving large numbers of dead birds or multiple species. Single dead bird reports are useful for tracking suspicious cases; however, due to limited staff, and resources ODFW will not be able to respond to all such reports.

- Do not handle wildlife that is sick or found dead. If it is necessary to dispose of a carcass, use a shovel or wear impermeable gloves, wash hands with soap and water, and change clothing before having contact with domestic poultry or pet birds.

- Keep dogs away from sick or dead birds. There are no known cases of domestic dogs becoming sickened by contact with sick birds. But hunters should not feed dogs any raw meat, organs, or other tissues from harvested waterfowl, and they should not allow retrieving dogs to interact with sick or dead birds.
