No one really loves going to the dentist… except maybe Beau.

This sweet boy came in for his dental procedure, and while most pets would rather skip the whole experience, Beau handled it like a champ! Since he couldn't tell us which tooth hurts, Beau was fully anesthetized so our team could perform a complete oral exam and take full mouth dental X-rays.

Those X-rays revealed some great news: only one tooth was diseased and needed to be removed! Catching dental disease early meant Beau could get the care he needed and get back to feeling his best.

His mom shared that Beau is doing very well after his procedure, and we’re so happy to see this good boy smiling again! 💙

Remember, many dental problems hide below the gumline where we can’t see them. Full mouth dental X-rays help us find hidden issues and make sure every tooth gets the attention it deserves.

Cookie's story began as a feral cat, cared for by kind community members who made sure he had food and someone looking out for him. But everything changed when a compassionate family noticed he was injured and knew he needed help.

After bringing Cookie to the veterinarian, the extent of his injuries became clear. X-rays revealed multiple fractures and significant scar tissue, and he also had a painful toe that was causing him discomfort. Because of the severity of his injuries, the best option to give Cookie a comfortable, pain-free future was to amputate the affected toe.

Today, Cookie is leaving his outdoor life behind and embracing the comforts of being an indoor cat, where he'll never have to fend for himself again. We're so grateful to his new family for opening their hearts and home to a cat in need. Their kindness has given Cookie the second chance he deserves, and we can't wait to see him enjoy a life filled with safety, love, and plenty of cozy naps.

Every heat cycle causes changes inside a dog's uterus. Over time, those changes make it easier for a dangerous, life-threatening infection called pyometra to develop. A recent veterinary review found that "the combined occurrence of cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH) and pyometra ranges from over 20% to more than 50% in intact female dogs up to 10 years of age" (Age-related Canine Reproductive Health: Impact on Fertility and Reproductive Disorders, Journal of Veterinary Science, 2025). While the medical terminology may sound complicated, the takeaway is simple: with every heat cycle, the risk of pyometra increases. The only way to completely prevent this disease is by having your dog spayed.

Lily can certainly vouch for that.

At 10 years old, she had emergency surgery to remove her infected uterus after developing pyometra. Thankfully, her family noticed she wasn't acting like herself and sought veterinary care right away. The emergency hospital quickly diagnosed her condition, and she was referred for surgery.

Her mom shared:

"Everyone at Anicira was so kind, compassionate, and attentive throughout the entire process, and it made a difficult and scary time so much easier for our family. I’m happy to report that Lily is doing great! She is back to her old spunky, energetic self and is feeling so much better after her surgery. It’s been wonderful to see her personality shining through again, and we are incredibly grateful for the care she received from your team."

We're so happy Lily is back to feeling like herself again! If you've been thinking about having your pet spayed, we'd love to help. Give us a call at 571-208-0199 or email [email protected] to learn more or schedule an appointment.

SHARE! FREE spay & neuter surgeries! Read the details below!

Shelter overcrowding is a serious issue that disproportionately affects Pit Bulls and Pit Bull mixes. Unfortunately, they’re surrendered to shelters at higher rates and encounter more trouble finding adopters. Expanding access to spay and neuter surgery is an effective way to address this problem, reduce strain on shelter resources, and give these dogs a better chance at finding permanent homes.

Financial barriers shouldn’t be an obstacle to responsible pet parenting. Through our Pit Fix program, Anicira offers low-cost spay and neuter surgeries specifically for Pit Bulls and Pit Bull mixes. With support from a generous $25,000 ASPCA grant, we’re able to provide these procedures completely FREE for qualifying pet parents.

To be eligible, you must live in Manassas, Manassas Park, Prince William County, Harrisonburg, or Rockingham County. If you’re unsure whether your dog qualifies as a Pit Bull or Pit Bull mix, send a photo to your nearest Anicira hospital and our team will be happy to help:

Harrisonburg: [email protected]
Manassas: [email protected]

For full eligibility requirements, procedure details, and scheduling information, visit https://anicira.org/pit-fix/.

By expanding access to essential veterinary care, we can help prevent unwanted litters, reduce overpopulation and shelter strain, and keep more dogs happy, healthy, and in loving homes. Please help us spread the word!

Sometimes, even the bravest Gryffindors need a little magic .. .and a whole lot of quick-thinking humans.

In what seemed like the blink of an eye, Gryffindor went from his normal, happy self to lethargic with a noticeably distended abdomen. Thankfully, his incredibly attentive parents knew something wasn't right and wasted no time rushing him to the emergency veterinarian. Their quick action made all the difference.

After an examination and diagnostic testing, the ER team determined Gryffindor needed emergency surgery to remove his spleen. But what was the culprit? Was it a mass? Had it ruptured?

Instead, Dr. Brehm uncovered a rare diagnosis: splenic torsion, a life-threatening condition in which the spleen twists around its blood vessels, cutting off its blood supply and causing it to become dangerously enlarged.

Like any true Gryffindor, he faced the challenge with courage. During surgery, his spleen was removed, and while he was under anesthesia, he was also neutered, had a little skin tag removed, and underwent a gastropexy to help protect him from gastric bloat in the future.

Just weeks later, Gryffindor was back to enjoying life. His mom shared, "I know that Gryff is alive and well today because of how fast they acted, and they didn’t give up on him."

No spell could have accomplished what Gryffindor's family and veterinary team did together. We're incredibly grateful to his pet parents for recognizing that something was wrong and seeking emergency care without hesitation. Their vigilance, combined with the skill and dedication of his medical team, gave this brave wizard the chance to keep writing his story.

"We're removing the source of the problem, so how would a biopsy really help us?" It's a question we hear often after a mass is removed, and the answer is simple: without a biopsy, we'd only be guessing what the mass was made of.

When an ultrasound of Reesie's abdomen revealed a mass on her spleen, the entire spleen was removed and submitted to a pathologist for testing. While the surgery removed the mass itself, the biopsy was the only way to determine whether it was benign or cancerous.

A few weeks later came the best possible news...Reesie's mass was benign! HOORAY!

A huge congratulations to Reesie and her wonderful family! We know the waiting period after surgery can feel incredibly long and stressful, so we're thrilled they received such a positive result. Wishing Reesie a smooth recovery and many more happy, healthy years ahead!

Happy AAHA-Accredited Hospital Day!

Only 15% of veterinary hospitals nationwide earn accreditation from the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), and Anicira is proud to be among them.

In June, Bruce suffered a mysterious injury to his foot. There were no foreign objects embedded in the wound, nothing wrapped around his leg, and X-rays showed no fractures. While the exact cause remains unknown, it's possible he sustained a burn to his paw.

At first, Bruce seemed to be improving, but the swelling returned. After evaluating his progress, his veterinarian recommended amputation as the best option to relieve his pain and prevent ongoing complications. Dr. Creighton met with Bruce's family to discuss the procedure, recovery process, and what life would look like afterward. Armed with that information, they chose surgery to give Bruce the best chance at a healthy, pain-free future.

Today, Bruce is thriving! He's recovered beautifully and spends his days playing, exploring, and enjoying life with his two feline siblings and his loving family.
