Who says age can’t be the start of a beautiful friendship?🐾

One of our young labs and senior labs met for the very first time in the lobby and quickly became the sweetest pair!

From curious sniffs to gentle tail wags, it was a perfect reminder that dogs have a special way of making friends wherever they go.

Here’s to new friends, sweet moments, and labs of all ages! ❤️🦮

✨ A happier, more comfortable life for Seamus! 🐾

Nothing makes us happier than hearing success stories like this from our clients.

“Before starting Librela, Seamus seemed very stiff, had a lot of joint pain, and experienced a lot of discomfort. Since starting his monthly Librela injections, almost immediately, his activity and energy level have significantly improved. He doesn’t seem as fatigued, and appears to be much more comfortable. I’m so glad we started Librela. It’s been so nice to see him acting like he was 10 years ago.”

Seeing our senior pets regain their comfort and enjoy life again is exactly why we love what we do. While every pet responds differently, many dogs with osteoarthritis can benefit from a personalized pain management plan.

If you’ve noticed your pet slowing down, hesitating to jump, struggling with stairs, appearing stiff after resting, or just not acting like themselves, don’t assume it’s “just old age.” There may be options to help improve their comfort and quality of life.

We’d be happy to discuss whether Librela or another treatment could be the right fit for your pet. Give us a call to schedule an evaluation - we’re here to help keep tails wagging and pets feeling their best!

A veterinary visit can be a little overwhelming for some patients, so we always do everything we can to make our patients feel safe, relaxed, and cared for from the moment they walk through our door. 🐾

From cozy blankets and gentle handling to giving our patients time to settle in (and providing the most wonderful tables for relaxation and lounging), we want every pet to know they’re in a place where they’re loved and cared for.

Because sometimes, the best medicine is simply making sure our patients are comfortable throughout their whole visit with us! 🐶🐱❤️

At Great Road Veterinary Hospital, every surgical patient, like Gabe pictured below, is treated like family from the moment they arrive until they’re safely back in your arms.

Behind every procedure is a team dedicated to providing exceptional care every step of the way. From a thorough pre-surgical examination and individualized anesthetic plan to continuous monitoring by trained veterinary professionals, your pet’s comfort and safety are always our top priorities.

Throughout their stay, we focus on:
🐾 Gentle, low-stress handling
❤️ Individualized pain management
🩺 Advanced anesthetic and vital sign monitoring
🌡️ Keeping patients warm and comfortable during recovery
💙 Close observation until they’re awake, alert, and ready to go home

We know surgery can feel overwhelming, which is why we’re committed to caring for every patient as if they were our own. Thank you for trusting us with your beloved family members - we’re honored to be part of their care.
