Our awesome Safety Committee (Courtney, Jade, and Hayley) put the team through their paces yesterday with our annual safety walkthrough and quiz!

We reviewed emergency evacuation protocols, where the fire extinguishers were (and how to use them), radiation safety, handling of sharps, and so much more.

Nice job, Team!

Class IV Laser Therapy for inflammation? Yes, please!

Sophie enjoyed her with our Coordinator, Trinity, while Lauren lasered her painful bladder. ❤

Laser treatment:
✔️Improves blood flow,
✔️Increases lymphatic drainage,
✔️Triggers injured cells to turn over faster, and
✔️It's a form of drug-free, regenerative medicine helping Sophie to urinate comfortably again! 😺

At Viking Veterinary Care, we incorporate a discounted laser treatment into every spay, neuter, and dental for faster patient healing and a pain-free recovery. It can also help with arthritis, disc disease, pneumonia, ear infections, non-healing wounds...anything inflamed and infected!

It's good to have lots of tools in the pain management toolbox!🩺

If you had surgery, wouldn't you prefer not to feel your incision site for 3 DAYS?!?! 🥹

As part of our pain management plan, we offer Nocita as an add-on option for ALL of our surgical patients. Nocita is a local anesthetic (bupivacaine) wrapped in a fatty molecule that gradually dissolves, providing up to 72 hours of pain relief. 👏👏👏

Nocita is injected along the incision layers as the doctor closes the surgical site. The incision may look slightly puffier from the suspension within the tissues, but our patients go home feeling comfortable and don't require high doses of pain medication during recovery. ❤️

Nocita can be used in conjunction with our Loop Lounger for additional anti-inflammatory action before your pet even wakes up. 💤

📢Reactive dogs and NOT bad dogs!!📢
📢Scared cats and NOT bad cats!!📢

We know it can be stressful bringing your pet in for care when they can be triggered by circumstances outside their control. As a veterinary hospital, we're here to help!

🧀Our patients wait in the car with their people until they can walk directly into their exam room.
🧀The one-way flow and constant communication within our hospital helps ensure our patients won't run into other animals.
🧀High value treats are available throughout the appointment-please bring your pet a little hungry!
🧀We take notes within each patient's chart regarding what worked best for them, so a plan is in place for each visit.

Please let us know before your appointment if your pet has any special considerations that we can help with! And thank you for being your pet's best advocate! 👏👏👏

Huck loves the new Assisi Loop Lounge, falling asleep mid-licky mat! 😴

The Assisi Loop Lounge provides nose-to-tail Targeted Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (tPEMF) therapy to reduce pain and swelling while accelerating healing. This modality works differently than our Class IV laser, but can be used at the same time for optimal pain relief. 👏👏👏

The Assisi Loop Lounge can be used for a wide arrange of conditions, including:
🩺Post-surgical recovery
🩺Wound care
🩺Spinal and nerve disorders
🩺Internal inflammation
🩺Arthritis pain
🩺Bone, joint, and soft tissue injuries

The Lounge can be safely used with animals who have undiagnosed masses or a history of cancer. It is contraindicated for pets (and around people) who have electronic medical devices, such as pacemakers.

For a limited time, we'll be offering 15-minute Lounge treatments for $10 during our appointments and surgeries. Please let us know when scheduling if this is a modality you are interested in so we can make sure it's available!

What music does your pet prefer?

For years, Viking Veterinary Care has been utilizing Through A Dog's Ear in our exam rooms as part of our approach. This music has been selected and/or rearranged to gradually reduce heart rates by progressively slowing rhythms and simplifying auditory data. 🥱

Studies on dog's music preferences in animal shelters have shown that while listening to classical music, the level of barking was significantly reduced and the dogs often lay down and settled. In subsequent studies, reggae music and soft rock showed the highest positive changes in behavior. 🎶🎵

We've start to play the reggae album in our rooms to mix things up, but what would you prefer?

🎹🎻Classical?
🪘🪇Reggae? or
😎Whatever my pets like

Regarding our feline friends: Cats have been shown to not care for human music in general, preferring white noise or species-specific music that includes "crescendos of purring and suckling sounds are designed to relax."

Did you know only 15% of veterinary hospitals are certified by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA)? And Viking Veterinary Care is one of them! 🏆

AAHA certified practices have agreed to hold themselves to the highest standards of excellence in the profession! We were evaluated on stringent quality protocols that encompass all aspects of veterinary medicine—from pain management and patient care to team training and medical recordkeeping. AAHA's standards are continuously updated to keep accredited practice teams at the forefront of the profession.🩺

This we have a case to share highlighting the importance of dental radiographs! 🦷

This fracture was below the gumline and unable to be detected on examination alone. The owner noted this tooth was discolored, but the patient was still eating well and showed no signs of pain. 😲😬 Animals are tough!

At Viking Veterinary Care, our medical excellence extends to dentistry.
✅Every dental patient receives full mouth radiographs, just like humans have at their dentists!
✅Radiographs are completed again after extractions to confirm we removed all remaining root tips to prevent future complications.
✅Every Comprehensive Oral Health and Treatment (COHAT) evaluation is performed with two technicians and a doctor for the safest, most efficient anesthesia and care.

COHATs should be performed based on your veterinarian's recommendation. If we start them BEFORE dental disease sets in, we can keep procedures short and help your pet avoid mouth pain as they get older!

Junie was in recently to establish care after being newly adopted. She IS made of sugar and may melt in the rain, but precautions were taken for this sweater weather! Congratulations to Junie and her Family. 😍

Did you know we save 2 to 3 urgent care appointments every day for our established clients? We want to save you the wait at the ER too!🩺

If you have an urgent situation with your pet and are a Viking client, give us a call at 971-371-4024 at 8am and we'll see what we can do to help, based on staffing and availability.

These spots go fast and sometimes we still have to refer to an ER, but please know it's only when we don't have the resources to provide the care your pet deserves! 😸🐶

Denali was in this week for her preventative wellness exam, and it was clear we had an URGENT medical issue! 😳

She was completely depleted of her essential cheese allowance! 🧀🧀🧀

After supplementation from our veterinary care team, she was able to bounce back right away! ❤🩺👏

Luckily, Denali will recover....but preventative care examinations are definitely recommended to reassess the situation every 6 to 12 months! 👩‍⚕️

Are your pets overdue for their preventative care exams? Regular examinations can help us catch medical issues early and allow us time to evaluate preventative measures for dental disease, arthritis pain, and a host of other age-related issues (as well as cheese deficiencies...).

📞Current clients, please call 971-371-4024 Ext 6 to reserve the time, date, and doctor that works for you!
