🌸 Spring Cleaning? We’ve Got the Perfect Place for Your Old Towels! 🐾

As you’re freshening up your home this spring, don’t toss those extra towels—we could really use them! 🧺

We use a lot of towels every day keeping pets clean, dry, and cozy during their visits. If you have any gently used towels, preferably big towels that you’re ready to part with, we’d be so grateful to give them a second life helping our patients. 💛

Drop-offs are welcome at our front desk during regular hours!

Thank you for turning your spring clean-out into something that helps animals in need. 🌷🐶🐱

🤔 Can you guess what this dog’s condition is? It may look scary, but it is usually completely benign though it often still warrants surgical intervention!

✅ If you guessed gingival hyperplasia, you are correct! Gingival hyperplasia is the overgrowth of gum tissue around the teeth. This condition is common in some breeds like Boxers. In severe cases like this one, it is recommended to remove the excess to prevent food and debris from getting caught under the tissue and effecting the teeth underneath. This poor pup had been feeling uncomfortable due to the overgrowth but after his procedure, he’ll be feeling much better!

🦷 Remember, Lafayette Animal Hospital is offering 20% off dental related surgeries through the end of this month! Bring your furry family members in for a no charge dental assessment to see if they need a dental procedures.
