Happy Earth Day!

From the parks we explore to the neighborhoods we call home, a healthy planet means a healthier life for our pets.

This Earth Day, consider simple ways to make a difference:
• Properly dispose of pet waste
• Use eco-friendly products when possible
• Keep outdoor spaces clean and safe

Every small step helps protect the environment we all share.

It’s Heartworm Awareness Month!

Did you know heartworm disease is spread by mosquitoes and can be life threatening if left untreated? Prevention is easy, safe, and far more affordable than treatment.
We offer heartworm testing and multiple prevention options and we’re here to help guide you every step of the way.

Have questions? Reach out anytime. Your pet’s health is our priority.

We’re proud to be part of a community that supports each other, lifts each other up, and shares a love for pets, people, food and fun. It’s this friendly neighborhood vibe that makes what we do even more special every single day. 💛

So whether you’re grabbing a bagel , treating your pup to a baked good , having a fun overnight stay , heading to the , or stopping by to see us—we’re grateful you’re part of our community.

✨ We had the BEST time at an incredible open house! ✨

Dr. Savageau and Dr. Pankonien recently had the opportunity to tour the brand-new Austin Veterinary Emergency and Specialty Center (AVES) building—and WOW, we are beyond impressed.

This state-of-the-art facility truly raises the bar for specialty and emergency care, offering advanced services like radiation oncology, critical care, emergency medicine, advanced surgery, fluoroscopy, and so much more. Even better, the specialists we met are not only leaders in their fields, but also incredibly kind and passionate about what they do.

And the open house itself? Easily one of the most fun we’ve ever attended! From interactive learning stations throughout the hospital, to personalized tote bags featuring our own pets, and even a trucker hat-making station—it was such a thoughtful and memorable experience.

We feel so grateful to practice in a city like Austin, where we have access to such outstanding specialty and emergency partners. Having trusted teams like AVES means we can continue working together to provide the very best care for your pets—every step of the way. 💙

🦷🐾 Behind the Scenes of a Dental Day! 🐾🦷

Shoutout to our amazing technician, Jen, for taking such great care of our patients—here she is in action capturing dental x-rays! 💙

Did you know that most dental disease in pets happens below the gumline, where we can’t see it just by looking? That’s why dental x-rays are such an important part of every dental cleaning. They allow us to detect hidden issues like infection, bone loss, and damaged teeth early—helping keep your pet happy, healthy, and pain-free!

These images give us a full picture of your pet’s oral health so we can provide the best care possible. 🐶🐱✨

Thank you, Jen, for your attention to detail and dedication to our patients! 👏

☀️🐾 Puppy Love Alert! 🐾☀️

Sonny the Vizsla puppy stopped by earlier this month to brighten our day—and let’s just say, he definitely lived up to his name by making our day even sunnier! 🌞💛

At only 3 months old, Sonny is already growing into such a big, handsome boy. We can’t wait to watch him continue to grow (and steal hearts everywhere he goes)!

Thanks for bringing all the sunshine, Sonny—we loved having you visit us! 🐶✨
