🐾💕 Meet Sanji and Luffy! 💕🐾

These adorable babies came in to establish care with us and get treatment for their upper respiratory infections. Upper respiratory infections (URIs) are common in kittens and can cause symptoms such as sneezing, nasal discharge, watery eyes, and congestion. Early veterinary care is important to help them feel better and prevent complications.

We’re happy to report that these sweet kittens were all snuggled up together during their visit and are on the road to recovery! 🩺🐱

If your cat is showing signs of sneezing, eye discharge, or a stuffy nose, don’t wait—give us a call so we can help them breathe easier and get back to feeling their best. ❤️

🌞🐾 Everyone say hello to Summer! 🐾🌞

This sweet Golden Retriever puppy came in to establish care and start her puppy booster series, and she was an absolute superstar for her visit! 💛

Puppyhood is the perfect time to build a strong foundation for a lifetime of health. In addition to vaccines, one of the most important topics we discuss with new puppy parents is flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.

Here in Florida, parasites are a year-round concern. Our warm climate allows fleas and ticks to stay active throughout the year, putting pets at risk for itchy skin, allergies, tick-borne diseases, and more. Mosquitoes are also abundant, which means heartworm disease is a constant threat for unprotected dogs.

Summer is off to a great start, and we can’t wait to watch her grow! 🐶💕 If you’ve recently welcomed a new puppy into your family, give us a call to discuss the best preventive care plan for your newest best friend.

Bo came to see us for some tummy troubles, but he made sure to impress everyone with his amazing tricks while he was here! From standing up for treats to showing off his happy personality, Bo kept our team smiling throughout his visit. ❤️

While an upset stomach can sometimes be caused by something simple, digestive issues can also be a sign of underlying health concerns. If your pet is experiencing vomiting, diarrhea, decreased appetite, or other stomach-related symptoms, it’s always a good idea to have them evaluated by your veterinarian.

Thankfully, Bo was all smiles during his visit and reminded us that even pets who aren’t feeling their best can still brighten our day. We hope you’re feeling better soon, Bo! 🐶✨

Frankie came to see us for his ACTH stimulation test today and was so comfortable, sweet, and happy to see everyone! 🖤🤍🐾

An ACTH stim test is commonly used to help monitor a condition called Cushing’s disease in dogs. Cushing’s occurs when the body produces too much cortisol, a stress hormone that affects many systems in the body. Dogs with Cushing’s may show signs like increased thirst and urination, increased appetite, panting, hair loss, a pot-bellied appearance, or recurrent skin infections.

While Cushing’s disease can’t always be cured, many dogs can live happy, comfortable lives with proper diagnosis, monitoring, and medication management. Regular rechecks and testing, like Frankie’s ACTH stim test, are an important part of making sure treatment is working safely and effectively. 🩺

Frankie was an absolute superstar for his visit today and soaked up all the love and attention from our team! 💕

🐾 Meet Boone! 🖤

This happy little guy came in to see us for some itchy skin and allergy concerns, and he made everyone smile from the moment he walked through the door! Boone was incredibly sweet, playful, and full of tail wags during his visit. 😊

Skin allergies are one of the most common issues we see in dogs and can show up as itching, licking, chewing at the paws, ear infections, redness, or irritated skin. Since allergies can worsen over time, it’s important to address symptoms early to help keep pets comfortable and prevent secondary infections.

If your pet has been scratching more than usual, don’t ignore it — we’re here to help find relief and get them feeling their best!

Thanks for visiting us, Boone! We hope you’re feeling more comfortable soon. 🐶💕

Simon and Clara stopped by for their annual senior wellness exams, and they were all smiles for their visit! 🐾💙

As our pets get older, routine checkups become even more important. Senior exams help us monitor for age-related changes that may not always be obvious at home. Things like arthritis, dental disease, vision or hearing changes, weight fluctuations, and early signs of organ disease can develop gradually over time.

Regular wellness visits allow us to catch concerns early, keep pets comfortable, and help them maintain the best quality of life possible throughout their golden years. Even if your senior pet seems perfectly healthy, yearly (and sometimes twice-yearly) exams are one of the best ways to stay ahead of potential problems.

We loved seeing Simon and Clara and helping keep these sweet seniors happy and healthy! 🐶✨

This cutie is one of two kittens that we’ve seen this week that was found next to a car’s engine. While they’re undeniably adorable, kittens often need extra care and attention to get off to a healthy start.

If you’ve found a kitten outside and are planning to keep them, here are a few important steps to take:

🍼 Estimate age & feeding needs
Very young kittens (under 4–5 weeks) require bottle feeding and round-the-clock care. Older kittens can transition to wet food.

🏥 Schedule a veterinary visit ASAP
A check-up helps determine age, overall health, and any urgent needs like deworming or treatment for fleas, parasites, or infections.

💉 Start vaccinations & preventive care
Kittens need a series of vaccines, along with flea/tick and heartworm prevention (yes—even indoor cats can be at risk!).

😺 Plan for spay/neuter
When the time is right, this helps prevent future litters and supports your kitten’s long-term health.

💛 Give them patience & love
Many outdoor kittens need time to adjust to indoor life. A calm, safe space goes a long way.

If you’re unsure what to do or need guidance, our team is always here to help. Together, we can give these little ones the best possible start. 🐾

It’s Veterinary Receptionist Week, and we’re so excited to introduce one of the friendly faces who helps keep our hospital running smoothly—Jenna! 🐾

Jenna, originally from Raleigh, North Carolina, has joined us here in the state of Florida after living in Tennessee for the last few years. With many furry critters of her own, she loves animals of all shapes and sizes which influenced her decision in working with animals full-time! When she’s not at work, you can find her at one of the local theme parks or cuddled up at home with her fur babies!

From answering your calls to making sure your pets feel welcome from the moment they walk through our doors, Jenna plays such an important role in your pet’s care. Be sure to say hello and help us thank her for all she does! 💙
