🚨 COVID Update:
In recognition of the mandatory mask order for our area, starting tomorrow when interacting with the SVH team at curbside we're asking that you wear a mask. If you don't have one when you arrive just let our team know and we will give you one.
We know that there are a lot of emotions around this order however, our mission is to care for the pets in our area today, tomorrow, and well into the future. In order to continue serving our community, we need you to help us by wearing a mask.
Unity is the only way through. ❤️

Please help us in welcoming our newest team member Dr. Cooper! Dr. Cooper is joining us from the great state of Texas. Here are a few things she would like to share with us.
"My favorite aspect of veterinary care is the rewarding feeling when I get to help an elderly pet feel its best! Working with an owner and their pet over time gives me warm fuzzies. Of course, new puppy and kitten visits are always a highlight of my day too. I love the natural beauty of our area, and I feel so lucky to live such a short distance from both mountains and ocean. I haven’t lived anywhere like this before! The hiking around here is amazing, and I look forward to exploring more of it with our new puppy Georgia."
Daisy Wright is our Doggie Daycare winner of the week. She also participated in our Howl -O- Ween contest. She wins a free day of Doggie Daycare. Please help us continue our food drive by donating 5 non perishable food items to be entered to win until the end of the year. #sumnerveterinaryhospital #fooddrive #community

I spend my day napping in the sunshine, romping around in any open field and playing with my best buddy Colt.
Congratulations Ruger! We love having you at SVH!

March is an extra lucky month for our daycare guests!
K9 Maverick is a retired Police Dog and this weekend we celebrate all retired K9's.
Maverick served with the Puyallup Police Department with his handler, Sergeant K. Karuzas.
Maverick had a notable career with over 8 years of service and over 166 captures.
As of January 31st, 2021, he retired. He now enjoys retired life laying around on the back porch in the sun on the forbidden outdoor furniture. He still enjoys a fun game of tug a war and hanging out with his much smaller canine buddy, Charlie the Chihuahua and his family.
Thank you for your service Maverick!
