We are so thankful for the donations of non-perishable items in support of this year’s Holiday Food Drive Concert presented by our friends at SOUP CAN Magazine and hosted by The Union Market & Gallery! Tomorrow is the last day to drop things off at the office, we’ll bring them along with us to the concert on Sunday. Hope to see you there!

First appointment of the day was a stray kitten in for a check-up & in need of a home. Dr. Dan walked out of the exam room and placed the kitten in his wife’s hands, and said, “He’s really sweet.” 🥹 And just like that, she knew they had a new kitty. What’s one more? 🐈‍⬛💙🤷‍♀️

School’s out, sandwiches are in 🥪✨
The girls were excited to spot our logo at one of our favorite local spots — The Union Market & Gallery — while we grabbed lunch today!

Southern Ocean Animal Hospital is proud to sponsor this year’s Holiday Food Drive Concert presented by SOUP CAN Magazine happening this Sunday, November 9th at 5PM right here at The Union. 🎶❤️

We’ll be collecting non-perishable food donations all week long at the hospital, so feel free to swing by and drop something off — we’ll bring everything with us to the event on Sunday! 🥫

A huge shoutout to The Union for always showing up for our community — especially for offering free kids’ meals to families currently affected by the government shutdown and SNAP benefit pause. 💙

When Dr. Dan forgets we’re running a hospital, not a podcast 🎙️😂 “I’m talking to my friends, mama!” 🐶💬🩺

Love this, high five Empanadivas. 🙌🏻🫶🏻❤️🥟 Please remember, especially as we head into the holiday season, it’s your LOCAL SMALL BUSINESSES that support your community, not the big box stores & the corporations.

We’ve all felt it. Sometimes we just need a meal and a moment to breathe. Sometimes you don’t want to hear the question, “what’s for dinner tonight?”.
When someone asks for the special, we know what that means. No charge, no questions, just care. 💛

That’s what your donations make possible. When you give through our website, you’re putting real food on real tables right here in our town. If you, or someone you know needs a meal, please reach out to us. We want to help.

Let’s keep showing up for each other. Every dollar matters. Every meal counts.

👉 Donate today at www.empanadivas.com

Love watching these girls — Fiercely Loyal K-9, LLC. & Layin Down The Paw — work these amazing canines! Dog training builds a foundation of trust and communication between pets and their people — it’s what allows dogs to thrive safely and confidently in our world. A well-trained dog isn’t just obedient; they’re happier, calmer, and more connected to their family. We’re so grateful for our local trainers who dedicate their time and expertise to helping our patients and clients strengthen that bond every day. Nice work, everyone!! 👏🏼🫶🏻💙🐾

We had gorgeous weather for our annual trip out to Laurita Winery’s Oktoberfest Food Truck festival in celebration of Veterinary Technician week. The food was great, the wine flowed freely, and the company was the absolute best.

Thanks for all you do, team! You’re a gang of rockstars and we couldn’t do it without you. ❤️🐾💙
