Today ends another amazing Veterinary Technician Appreciation week at CVH! We would love to give a huge shoutout to our licensed veterinary technicians!
Have you ever wondered what a Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) does? Simply put, veterinary technicians are the backbone of veterinary medicine. They are highly trained professionals who work alongside veterinarians to provide exceptional care for animals.
On any given day, an LVT may be drawing blood, running laboratory tests, administering medications, monitoring anesthesia during surgery, taking radiographs, assisting with examinations, educating pet owners, and providing compassionate nursing care to patients. They are skilled advocates for their patients and play a critical role in helping pets stay healthy and comfortable.
Veterinary technicians are often the reassuring voice pet owners hear during stressful situations and the gentle hands caring for animals throughout their treatment and recovery. Their expertise, dedication, and compassion make a tremendous difference in the lives of both pets and the people who love them.
Today, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our amazing CVH veterinary technicians. Thank you for your hard work, your commitment to patient care, your attention to detail, and the kindness you show every day. Whether you're comforting a nervous pet, assisting in a life-saving procedure, or educating clients, you make an impact that cannot be measured.
We are incredibly fortunate to have such talented and compassionate technicians on our team. Thank you for everything you do to make CVH a place where pets receive the highest quality care.

Hey everyone! Meet Buck! He is currently being fostered by one of our downtown staff members and is looking for his forever home!

🐾 LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT FOREVER HOME 🐾❤️

This sweet boy is looking for a loving, committed, and experienced home where he can truly thrive! ❤️

He is a very energetic, playful, and attention-loving dog who needs someone willing to dedicate the time, patience, and effort to helping him become the best version of himself.

He is still learning and needs a home that understands the importance of continued training, structure, consistency, and proper socialization.

🏡 His ideal home would include:

Someone experienced with high-energy dogs.
An active individual or family who can provide plenty of daily exercise, attention, and mental stimulation.
Someone committed to continuing his training and socialization.
Preferably someone willing to enroll him in professional training to help him reach his full potential.
A patient, loving owner who understands that dogs require time, commitment, and consistency.

❤️ This is NOT a first-come, first-served situation.

Finding the right home for him is my absolute priority. I want to ensure he goes to someone who fully understands his needs and is prepared to make a lifelong commitment to him.

Please be aware:

A rehoming fee will apply.
There will be an adoption screening process.
A home visit will be required before adoption.
Serious inquiries only.

He deserves a home where he will receive the love, guidance, exercise, and attention he needs to live a happy, fulfilling life.

If you believe you could provide the right environment for him, please send an email to [email protected] with some information about yourself, your experience with dogs, and the home you could offer him. 🐶❤️

Please feel free to share to help this sweet boy find the perfect forever home! 🐾

Looking for a forever home:

Hello!! My name is Biscuit!!!

Biscuit is a 5.5 year old bright eyed and very devoted neutered chihuahua mix. He loves to snuggle and cuddle, has a happy personality, and a curlicue tail. He knows basic tricks like sit, and he's a quick learner. He does well on a leash and he enjoys an easy walk (he's an ambler, not a runner :-). While he has bursts of "zoomies" he's mostly a chill, laidback boy. He's crate trained and housebroken, but would prefer a homebody and freedom to be out in the house. He's fine around small children, but he prefers teens/adults. He does well with other dogs, no exposure to cats. He's been with the same family since he was puppy, but, due to life changes, they're no longer able to keep him. They hope to find a great match for Biscuit in his new forever home
