American Animal Hospital

05/13/2026

The last few months have been a bit of a whirlwind, both at the clinic and at home.

Somewhere between long days at the hospital, after hours calls, bike rides, hanging out in beautiful downtown Neenah and getting back out on Lake Winnebago, I realized we haven’t shared much lately.

So here’s a little photo dump from life lately. Just some moments from March through May around Neenah with the kids and the community we’re grateful to be part of.

Running a veterinary clinic can be exhausting and unpredictable at times, but one thing I never take for granted is getting to do it alongside such an incredible team, in a place that truly feels like home.

To everyone who continues to support local businesses and trust us with your pets, thank you. It means more than you probably realize.

We’re grateful for the busy days, family time, warmer weather and the opportunity to continue caring for pets in this community. And if you’re looking for a veterinary home for your pet, we’d be honoured to meet you.

Veterinary medicine has changed a lot, but it doesn’t have to lose its warmth and heart.

In small towns like ours, you should not feel rushed, overlooked, or like just another appointment slot. Independent, privately owned clinics still believe in relationships, follow-up and care that is built around your pet, not corporate policies or production numbers.

If you felt like something was missing at your last visit, it is okay to look for a different option and model of care.

🐾 We are currently accepting new clients and offering new client promos for all species so ask about them when you call to book.

📞 920-725-8522

Local care. Familiar faces. Medicine with heart.

Good care isn’t seasonal 🐢
Okay, we’re all over winter, but your pet’s health can’t wait for warmer days.

If you’re looking for a second opinion or a new veterinary home, we’re offering new client specials (all species) through the end of the month.

Ask about our Facebook promo when you book!

🐾 Keep potty breaks short
Limit outdoor time to just a few minutes. If your dog is lifting paws, shivering, or trying to head back inside, it’s time to go in.

🚪 Create a cold-safe potty area
If possible, shovel a small path or potty spot close to your door.
• Straw (not hay) is ideal because it traps air and provides insulation from frozen ground
• Avoid blankets or towels outside, as they freeze and worsen heat loss
• A piece of plywood or rubber mat under the straw can also help block ground cold

🧂 Protect paws
Ice melt and salt can burn paw pads. Wipe paws after every trip outside and consider pet-safe booties if your dog tolerates them.

🏠 Bring pets indoors
If it’s dangerously cold, pets should not be left outside for extended periods, even large or thick-coated dogs.

🚗 Tap your hood before driving
Cats may seek warmth under car hoods or near engines during extreme cold.

🩺 Know the warning signs
Shivering, lethargy, pale gums, or weakness can signal cold-related illness. If you’re concerned, contact us right away.

We’re here to help keep your pets safe during this cold snap. Please don’t hesitate to call with questions or concerns. 💙🐶🐱

While we hope you never have to put your pet down in an emergency situation at Blue Pearl, if you find yourself in a situation where you have to, please remember you have the choice to use our partners at Forrest Run. Pat and his team are phenomenal and are willing to make arrangements at whatever time of day to make your pet's passing easier. They are an incredible local business.

We partner with various vets to help your pet final journey. See here a list of our partnerships.
