💔 It is with heavy hearts that we share with our clients and community the tragic passing of our beloved Dr. Lauren Semanchik. Not only was Lauren a phenomenal veterinarian, she was one of the kindest souls you could ever encounter and a friend to us all.

While we have much more we can say regarding our thoughts, feelings and heartfelt stories of Dr. Semanchik, we will take a moment with our staff to navigate through this unprecedented process and remain closed this week, reopening on MONDAY 8.11.25.

We ask for patience as our Long Valley Animal Hospital family mourns this devastating loss.
One of our team members will reach out directly if you had an upcoming appointment with us this week. We will share information regarding donations in her honor and a memorial in the near future.

Thank you for your kindness and understanding.

Additionally, a GoFundMe has been started as of 8/4/25. Thank you and Please Share https://gofund.me/950df41c

For the safety of our staff, clients and pets, LVAH will have a delayed opening tomorrow 2/6/25. Our office will be open from 1-7pm. Stay Safe and Warm!

A common question this time of year is, “How cold is too cold for a dog?” Thankfully, the good folks at Tufts University developed a system for animal welfare officers to reference that we can utilize as a guide!
