📣📢EXTRA EXTRA READ ALL ABOUT IT...

A gender reveal for a bird?!?! 🦜

As many of you may know, Bogie, is our hospital bird that loves to greet (or scream at) people when you come in. Bogie is a 20 year old blue and gold macaw that the previous practice owner, Dr. Spancake, purchased as a little hatchling that was being sold as a male. In recent weeks, Bogie has been doing a lot "nesting" behaviors, to which made us question if He was in fact a He. Blue and Gold Macaws are known as s*xually monomorphic species, meaning you cannot distinguish a male between a female just by physical characteristics. The only way to figure out the true s*x is to have a blood DNA test. Bogie has never been truly s*xed and given the recent behavior change, we decided it would be best to obtain a blood sample and submit it for official DNA testing.
Will we have to change Bogie's name?!
Will we have to worry about Bogie laying eggs?!

Check out our gender reveal in the comments...💗💙 ❓❗️
(Although it didn't go fully as planned...)
It's a ...🚹🚺❔❕

Since we did not have the chance to give an official shoutout this weekend, "World Veterinary Day" is marked by the last Saturday in April. What does that mean? That means that we take the time to acknowledge and celebrate the amazing work that veterinarians do day in and day out! While we may be bias, the staff here at Lenape Vet Clinic believe that we have two of the greatest veterinarians and are incredibly thankful for Dr. Todd and Dr. Tom for all that they do for the patients, the clients, the staff and the community. Veterinarians are some of the most selfless people and words cannot begin to express our gratitude for these two amazing human beings. Please help us give them the thanks that they deserve!

To our valued clients,

We wanted to take this opportunity to inform you of our updated business hours effective Monday, April 3rd, 2023.

Our new business hours will be as follows:

Monday : 9am - 5pm

Tuesday : 10am - 7pm

By extending our office hours during the week, our goal is to be able to better accommodate your pet’s needs, whether a wellness exam, an emergency, or anything in between.

Our very limited Saturday hours did not give us much flexibility in our schedule and therefore we want to put our efforts into making our weekday hours the most beneficial for our clients.

We ask that you remain proactive by making sure you have enough food and medication to get you through the weekend and call us immediately if a problem occurs or at the first sign of any illness.

Please visit our website for a list of local 24/7 emergency clinics if a problem arises on our off hours.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this transitionary period. If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to contact our office at 610-793-2589.

We look forward to continuing to serve you and your pet’s veterinary needs.


Best Regards,

Dr. Todd Guay and the staff at Lenape Veterinary Clinic

National Hard Candy Day — December 19

Did you know that today is National Hard Candy Day?!?! 🍭🍬
While we all may love to munch on a savory piece of candy, some may contain an ingredient that could be hazardous to your pet's health. Heading into the holiday season, where hard candy such as mints, candy canes, lollipops, and even chewing gum, may be present in your household, please be aware of what they may contain.
Xylitol is an artificial sweetener found in many sugar-free candies, gum and even some baked goods! Xylitol is extremely toxic to dogs. Even smaller amounts of ingested xylitol can cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), seizures, liver failure, or even worse if let untreated.
If you find or suspect that your pet has ingested Xylitol, give our office a call ASAP so we can direct you on how to best proceed.
610-793-2589.

National Hard Candy Day is December 19, so break out the serving bowls and get a refill on toothpaste! We have the best celebration ideas.
