Meet Megan Pagliughi, our new practice manager!

A Florida native, Megan came all the way to Kentucky to join our team. With 12 years if veterinary experience, beginning with large animals, she brings both skill and heart to our practice.
She’s a proud pit bull mom to three pitties and one lab mix and a strong advocate against the stigma surrounding the breed. She also has a 13-year-old HUMAN daughter-they both saw snow for the very first time last week! Please keep her in your thoughts when that first big snowstorm hits and she’s driving in snow for the first time.
In just three months, Megan has already made a huge positive impact. The atmosphere is happier, calmer, and more productive thanks to her leadership.
Please give her a warm welcome-she’s truly a breath of fresh air.

🗓️ September 13th — National Bald is Beautiful Day 🧡
Today, we’re giving a big, bald shoutout to one of the most flawless felines we know — Gru, our resident Sphynx and official ambassador of bald beauty! 😎🐾

With his soft wrinkles, giant eyes, and "I-woke-up-like-this" confidence, Gru proves every day that you don’t need fur to be fabulous. Whether he’s soaking up sunbeams or demanding snacks in his birthday suit, he reminds us all that bald is bold, bald is fierce, and bald is beautiful. 💖

So here’s to Gru — the king of cuddles, the sultan of sass, and the poster cat for loving the skin you’re in. 😽

📸 Got a bald beauty like Gru? Tag us and celebrate the magic of the majestic, majestic naked cat.

🎆🐶 Fireworks & Furry Friends: Keep Your Dog Safe This 4th of July! 🇺🇸

While fireworks are a fun tradition for us, they can be terrifying and even dangerous for our pets. Dogs have sensitive hearing and can easily become scared or disoriented by the loud booms and flashes.

💡 Here are a few tips to keep your pup safe this holiday:

✅ Keep them indoors – Create a quiet, secure space for them to feel safe.
✅ Use background noise – TV or calming music can help drown out fireworks.
✅ ID tags & microchips – Make sure their info is up to date in case they run.
✅ Avoid taking them to fireworks shows – Even the calmest dogs can panic.
✅ Try calming aids – Thundershirts, vet-approved supplements, or pheromone sprays may help.

👂 Remember: What sounds fun to us can feel like the end of the world to them.

🎇 Let’s celebrate responsibly and keep our best friends safe and sound this Fourth of July! 🐾💙❤️

The summer heat is no joke — especially for our furry friends! 🐾☀️
Make sure you're keeping an eye out for signs of heat stroke and taking simple steps to keep your dog cool, hydrated, and safe.

Early mornings and late evenings are best for walks, and always check the pavement with your hand — if it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for them! 💦🐕
