Today is Veterinary Receptionists Day!
Throughout the country, veterinary practices are taking the opportunity to thank our Fabulous front of house staff, the unsung heroes of the Veterinary world, the telephone answering, appointment booking, email replying, among countless other jobs, that are our Veterinary Receptionists.
None of the rest of the veterinary team could do our jobs without these wonderful, hardworking people.
Huge shout out to Shondie, Bobbi, Suzy, and Kelsi!

Have a Safe Halloween
Do not feed pets Halloween candy, especially if it contains chocolate or xylitol (a common sugar substitute found in sugar-free candies and gum)
Pets should be properly identified (microchip, collar, and ID tag) in case they escape through the open door while you are distracted with trick-or-treaters
Lit candles and jack-o-lanterns must be kept out of reach of pets
Make sure pet costumes fit properly, are comfortable, and do not have pieces that can easily be chewed off, or can interfere with a pet’s sight, hearing, breathing, opening of mouth, or moving. Pets should have time to get accustomed to the costume before Halloween, and must never be left unsupervised while they are wearing a costume
Keep glow sticks and glow jewelry away from pets. Although the liquid in these products isn’t likely toxic, it tastes really bad and makes pets salivate excessively and act strangely
Pets who are wary of strangers or have a tendency to bite, should be put in a separate room during trick-or-treating hours or be provided with a safe hiding place
Keep pets inside
We would like to welcome a new doctor to our hospital. Dr. Jodie Andersen is a general practice doctor. She is also certified in acupuncture and chiropractic care. Please call to schedule an appointment with her today! We will have a full bio and picture soon up soon!
Happy Ground Hog Day!
Great perspective on the veterinary care the Alaskan Husky athletes receive. We are so proud of Dr. Adrian Fisher from VCA Big Lake, our sister hospital.
