Last night, Dr. Sydney played Health Paper Jeopardy with the 4-H members during their showmanship clinic. The kids and parents were engaged and very competitive. Every 100 points earned for their team won them a water balloon for the fight at the end! It was a great turnout! A huge thank you to Dayne Gittings for asking us to participate, Lynne Meyer for keeping score, and Collin Hennenfent and Jeremy Meyer for filling water balloons! Good luck to all the 4-H members with their fair projects!

⭐️National Veterinary Appreciation Day⭐️

June 18th marks a special occasion, reminding us to thank our veterinarians and staff for all the valuable work they do to help people and their pets and livestock. Their dedication, commitment, compassion, and knowledge are invaluable tools in keeping our animals healthy and happy.

The HVS staff would like to highlight our favorite veterinarian, Dr. Sydney Hennenfent. Sydney is an exceptionally kind, smart, insightful, hardworking individual who truly cares for your pets and livestock as if they are her own. Her mission has always been to offer the best professional service in a personal manner while honoring the animal-human bond. The love and devotion she pours into every patient leaves a mark far beyond the clinic walls - it touches families, memories, and souls.
