Photos from Pine Creek Veterinary Clinic's post

*CAUTION GRAPHIC*

This dog came in for an exam and had been vomiting for a few days. Turns out he was blocked with what the owner thinks was remains of a yogurt container and yarn material. Luckily Dr. Nolet was able to remove the material and this doggo is on his way to recovery!

01/18/2019

Due to the wildfires we have been experiencing in California the past couple of months, we have heard many heartbreaking stories of how pets and families have been separated with no way of reuniting. Dr. Nolet wants to make sure that if something like that were to happen in our area, people would be able to track down their fur babies by their microchips!

We will now be offering microchipping for your fur kiddos at $30 dollars, instead of the usual $54. Come by and get your pet micro-chipped with out an exam, and make sure you will be able to track them down if ever separated. ❤️
