No tricks, just treats—and a few reminders to keep Halloween fun for everyone! 🎃🐾

Keep chocolate and candy out of reach, make sure any cute costumes are comfortable and supervised, and secure pets indoors during trick-or-treating to prevent an unexpected escape.

And if your pet gets into something they shouldn’t or needs urgent care, Friendship’s Emergency & Specialty Center is open 24/7, including holidays.

Wishing our DC community a happy, safe, and slightly spooky Halloween! 👻🧡

Thank you Friendship Hospital for sponsoring Wisconsin Avenue Woof Walk! See you Saturday, October 31 from 11am-2pm ❤️

✨ Meet Knox, our little mischief-maker!🐾 He got himself into a Halloween-worthy adventure by snacking on his toy bat.🦇🪽 After a trip to our ER, we found a “wing” of surprise in his tummy and swooped in with an endoscopy to retrieve and remove it.🏥Knox is now back to his playful self—maybe just a little more batty than before! We’re so glad he’s on the mend.🧡🖤

Dialysis Queen 👑✨ Rory is a 9y Lab who has reached her 100th dialysis session this week! She has been on chronic dialysis for about a year now which has resulted in her being able to maintain a great quality of life.

Rory presented to the Friendship Nephrology team last fall where she was diagnosed with end stage renal failure secondary to a kidney infection and was started on dialysis. She was diagnosed with renal dysplasia when she was younger. This is a developmental problem of the kidneys that results in dogs being born with decreased kidney function and can progress over time. Unfortunately, her kidneys could not regain enough function for her to come off dialysis. Because of this life-saving treatment and her mom's dedication, Rory has been able to do all of the things she loves most!!

Some of her favorite things include popcorn, watermelon, strawberries, playing in the snow, and carrying a ball or plastic bottle in her mouth.

She is a true dialysis warrior! We love you, Rory!!
