A pet’s palette is not as discerning as you would hope. What’s the weirdest thing your pet has tried to eat? 😳

And if they succeed…give us a call so we can help!

"What’s better than an exam with Dr. Alexis and the team at Roanoke Animal Hospital? Free belly rubs and snacks, of course!" 🐾
This sweet girl had such a good time during her visit that she barely even noticed her vaccinations being given. Between the treats, cuddles, and plenty of positive attention, she was all smiles from start to finish. ❤️
At Roanoke Animal Hospital, we believe veterinary visits should be as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. A little love, a few snacks, and some belly rubs can go a long way!
Her official review:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for the snacks
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for the belly rubs
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for Dr. Alexis and the team
Who's a good girl? We think she earned that title today! 🐶✨

As flowers bloom, so do risks for our pets, with plenty of opportunity for them to breathe in particles, scratch an eye, poke a paw, or even get snagged by a branch or thorn, all of which could potentially lead to infections.

Infections can be sneaky subtle—If your pet is not acting right and you are not sure what it is, get them checked! Like with most conditions, the sooner we treat an infection, the better your pet will feel.

🍔 A burger… made their way 🐾
Today is National Hamburger Day, but your pet doesn’t need the drive-thru version to feel included.

In fact, many classic burger ingredients—like onions, garlic, and heavy seasoning—can upset their stomach (or worse). The good news? You can still treat them—just a little differently. Think:
🥩 Plain, lean protein
🥕 Pet-safe veggies
🚫 No added salt, spices, or toppings

Because the best treats aren’t the ones we share…they’re the ones we choose with them in mind. ❤️
If you’re ever unsure what’s safe, we’re always here to help!

🤩Does your pet resemble a certain celebrity or character? Maybe a green one with pointy ears, that wears a robe, and eats frogs? 🙃 ​
