Major the Macaw came to see us for a nail and break trim last week, and was such a gentleman as Avery and Dr. Emily used a Dremel on his beak. We use the Dremel not just to smooth edges, but to get long beaks thin enough to trim with clippers.

It’s National Rescue Dog Day! Here are a few of our staff rescues: Watts, Sam, Oswald, and Violet. Each has their own special story: Watts was returned 3x before landing with Megan; Sam was abandoned and Violet was adopted from a rural shelter; and Oswald is one of the Envigo beagles, adopted by our very own Dr. G!

We’d love to hear your stories- please share in the comments!
