Laser therapy is the use of specific wavelengths of light to treat painful and debilitating conditions. It is used for a variety of conditions, including arthritis pain, wound healing, tendinitis, inflamed ears, and hip dysplasia.

🚨15% off parasite prevention products purchased in the month of April! 🚨

🌺 As we head into Spring, parasites become more active. We are offering a 15% discount off of parasite prevention products that are purchased in the month of April. Ticks can carry illnesses like Lyme disease, and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, mosquitos can transmit heartworm, and fleas can lead to skin irritation, anemia and tapeworm infections. This is why prevention plays an important role in keeping your pet healthy!

Here is sweet Oliver, a 7 year old pomeranian chihuahua mix, being held in a veterinary assistant’s arms with some warm towels. ❤️ In February Oliver was in for a cystotomy. When Oliver started having blood in his urine, he came to the clinic for diagnostics. His X-rays showed bladder stones - solid mineral deposits formed when urinary crystals combine together. Surgery was performed to remove them and Oliver is recovering well. He will stay on a specific diet and lots of hydration to prevent reoccurrence.

This condition can affect both females and males, but males are at higher risk of urethral obstruction due to anatomy.

Kulfi, a handsome lynx point siamese, was in for a reexamination to see how he is doing after his antibiotic course finished. He is extremely friendly and is happy to rub against your leg and get a chin scratch. We are happy to see he is recovering well. Unfortunately for him, he still has a bit longer in the cone - but it’ll be able to come off soon! 🐱💞🐾
