Whether it's their first vet visit, a favorite toy, or a cozy nap on the couch, every moment with a puppy is something to cherish. As we celebrate these furry little friends, don’t forget to give them some extra belly rubs, treats, and cuddles today! 🐾✨

We want to see your puppies! Drop a pic of your little one in the comments and let’s celebrate the joy they bring to your life! 📸🐾💙

Dr. J will be running the D***y Challenge (48.6 miles) in the 2026 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend to support Give Kids The World Village and the kids it serves.

Each year, about half of all critically ill children eligible to have a wish granted choose to visit Orlando and its world-class theme parks. When they do, Give Kids The World is their host.

The Village provides accommodations, transportation, theme park tickets, and much more. It gives these kids and their families a week where they can laugh, play, and just be together – and it’s all free of charge.

When you donate towards the race, you will be supporting this magical place and help some really brave kids — and their families — enjoy the trip of a lifetime.

🐾🌍 Happy World Spay Day! 🌍🐾
Today, we’re shining a spotlight on an incredibly important topic: spaying and neutering our pets. It’s a simple procedure with big benefits for your furry friends and for the overall pet community!
Here’s why spaying your dog or cat is one of the best decisions you can make:
1️⃣ Prevents Unwanted Litters - One of the most important reasons to spay is to help reduce the number of unwanted animals. There are already too many pets waiting for homes, and spaying ensures that your pet won’t contribute to the overpopulation problem.
2️⃣ Health Benefits for Your Pet - Spaying has health benefits like reducing the risk of certain cancers and conditions. For female pets, spaying eliminates the risk of pyometra, a life-threatening infection of the uterus that can affect unspayed females. Pyometra can be extremely dangerous and requires emergency surgery, so spaying your pet helps prevent this painful and often fatal condition.
3️⃣ Behavioral Benefits - Spayed pets tend to be calmer and more focused. Female dogs won’t go into heat, and male pets will be less likely to roam and mark territory. This can help keep your home and neighborhood safer!
By spaying or neutering your pet, you're not only improving their quality of life but also making a positive impact on your community. Let’s make a difference together this World Spay Day by spreading the word about the importance of spaying and neutering our pets! 🐕🐈❤️

Valentine’s Day is all about sharing love, but remember – chocolates and candies are sweet for us humans, but they can be dangerous for our furry friends! 🍫💔🐶🐱

🌍🐍 Happy World Serpent Day! 🐍🌍
Did you know that serpents (snakes) are often misunderstood? While they can seem intimidating, they play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of our ecosystem. On this special day, let’s take a moment to appreciate these incredible creatures and maybe even shift some perceptions!
Here are a few things to keep in mind to help ease your fear:
1️⃣ They’re not all dangerous! - Of the 3,000+ species of snakes in the world, only a small percentage are venomous and pose a threat to humans. Most are shy and will avoid contact with people.
2️⃣ They help control pests. - Snakes are natural pest controllers, helping to keep populations of rodents and insects in check. This helps prevent the spread of diseases and protects crops.
3️⃣ Their beauty is in their diversity. - From the colorful patterns of a corn snake to the smooth, sleek skin of a garter snake, each species has its own unique charm and beauty.
4️⃣ A safe distance is key! - If you do encounter a snake in the wild, remember: Keep your distance, and the snake will do the same! They’re just going about their day, like any other animal.
🐍 And let’s not forget our pet snakes! Pet snakes, like ball pythons or corn snakes, are incredibly low-maintenance, docile, and fascinating to care for. They can make wonderful companions for those willing to learn how to care for them properly. Plus, they help break down some of the fear associated with snakes, as you can see firsthand how calm and friendly they can be!
Remember, like all animals, snakes are just trying to survive, and they play an important role in nature’s balance. 🌱 So let’s celebrate World Serpent Day by learning more and giving these amazing creatures the respect they deserve. 🐍❤️

Twas the night before Christmas at the A R C
Not a creature was stirring, as calm as could be.
The kennels were cozy, the lights dimmed just right,
The animals nestled, awaiting the night.

The dogs snoozed softly, their tails in a curl,
Dreaming of bones and a romp or a whirl.
The cats stretched lazily, with purrs that did hum,
Content in their warmth, with bellies so plump.

Even the bunnies, with fur soft as snow,
Snuggled together in a gentle warm glow.
The hospital quiet, a rare peaceful scene,
With love in the air, and all creatures serene.

The doctor walked through with a smile so bright,
Ensuring the pets were all tucked in tight.
Missy was there, her heart full of care,
With her children around her, love everywhere.

They laughed and they chatted, this family so kind,
Giving their all, with the season in mind.
For Christmas at A R C is a magical place,
Where love for each creature shows in every face.

So here’s to the doctors, the team, and their cheer,
For spreading the joy of the season each year.
May the animals find rest and the humans find peace,
Merry Christmas to all, and may the blessings increase!

This is our resident tortoise, Wheely. She was found in a yard about a year ago with her front legs mangled, possibly by another animal or a lawn mower?
Dr.J. worked fast to amputate so she could begin to heal.
She's happy as can be and receives a new set of wheels regularly.
Please be on the lookout for our native friends.
