well another Anniversary and Christmas in the books. Thank you to our staff and clients letting us enjoy this time together. It was a more of a chill vacation for us due to the major lack of snow in the west. We did visit the Mormon Tabernacle and saw their amazing Christmas Choir. We swam in the Utah Crater a 92° natural hot spring, visited the Olympic Park in Park City and went bobsleding, skied a half a day, watched glass blowing, took a pottery making class and met several new furry friends.🛫🎶🏊🏼🛷🎿🏺

One of our interesting surgical cases of the day.
15 yr old yorkie presented today sick sick: vomiting, lethargic, vomiting and not eating. Diagnostics were performed and profound anemia 13%, elevated BUN, alkaline phosphatase and total bilirubin were present. X-ray showed what looked to be a coin in the stomach. (Photos in comments) Diagnosis at that point was likely zinc toxicosis from a post 1982 copper coated zinc penny.
Surgery was performed and sure enough it was a penny. Doctor Yurko removed the penny and a full recovery is expected.

❄️❄️SNOW DAY AT KEY❄️❄️

KEY is all dug out!!
Huge shout out to our girls that battled the winter storm and made it in to take care of your beloved pets, Avrey Cottrell Abby Willson and Alexandria Paulin, they are true SUPERSTARS! I’m so proud of them. Karl and I were also able to make it in also and treated them to Starbucks for a job well done. Pets just like humans need care too, a little snow will not stop us.

Yeller is just so sweet he doesn’t understand why he hasn’t had any visitors or applications 😔

Yeller. 6 or 7yrs old and wise. Came into the abaco bahamas shelter, yes he made a very long journey to Wheeling, WV, skin and bones and completely bald. He knows he is ruggedly handsome now. A bit snarky and will protect his family but is a very chill guy. There is never a body of water he didn’t like. Treated for heartworms, neutered, microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations and preventives. He just wants to be loved.
