🐾❤️ A Special Thank You to Our Local Heroes ❤️🐾

Today, we want to recognize and thank the incredible firefighters and first responders who went above and beyond to save a beloved family member, Sweet Daisy.

After being rescued from a house fire, Daisy received immediate lifesaving care from the responding crews, who provided critical oxygen therapy and emergency support before she arrived at our 24/7 Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Hospital. Their quick actions, dedication, and compassion gave Daisy the fighting chance she needed.

As veterinary professionals, we often see the difference that those first few minutes can make. The care Daisy received before arriving at our hospital played a vital role in her treatment and recovery.

We are incredibly grateful for the men and women who put themselves in harm's way every day to protect both people and pets. Thank you for your commitment to our community and for treating Daisy as one of your own.

Please join us in recognizing these amazing first responders for their courage, professionalism, and compassion. 💙🚒🐾

🍕🍦🍔 Happy National Eat What You Want Day! 🍩🌮🍟

While today might be the perfect excuse for an extra treat for us humans, it’s important to remember that many favorite foods can be dangerous for our pets.

🚫 Common pet toxins include:
• Chocolate
• Onions & garlic
• Grapes & raisins
• Xylitol (found in sugar-free gum/candy)
• Alcohol
• Macadamia nuts
• Lilies (especially toxic to cats)

Even small amounts of some of these can cause serious illness or become life-threatening.

If your pet gets into something they shouldn’t, contact your veterinarian or emergency veterinary team right away. Our teams at Mountain West Veterinary Specialists are here when you need us. ❤️🐾

Today starts Client Coordinator Appreciation Week, and we are excited to celebrate our incredible CCs and DAs!

We want to take a moment to recognize and thank them for everything they do to keep our hospitals running smoothly each and every day. Their hard work, dedication, and compassion do not go unnoticed. They are often the first point of contact for our clients, offering kindness, reassurance, and support during some of the most stressful moments pet owners can face.

Please join us this week in showing your appreciation—whether it’s a kind word, a note of thanks, or simply taking a moment to recognize the important role they play on our team.
