Have you ever seen a dog or cat running loose on a busy street and feared for its safety? You may have tried to get it out of harm’s way — or you may have wanted to, but weren’t sure how. The goal of Missing Mutts Day is to educate the public on what to do. Here are some tips that can help next time you see a lost pet: https://www.americanhumane.org/fact-sheet/if-you-find-a-lost-pet/

🐾 Please join us in welcoming Dr. Emma Christopher to the Animal & Bird Health Care Center family! 🎉

Dr. Christopher's passion for veterinary medicine began while volunteering and interning at a wildlife rehabilitation center in Texas, where she cared for injured birds and other wildlife.

Her professional interests include surgery, exotic animal medicine, and avian care, making her a wonderful addition to our hospital.

When she's not caring for patients, you'll likely find her birdwatching, hiking, fostering kittens, enjoying a boba tea, or spending time with her own "small zoo" at home—which includes a dog, four cats, two birds, a snake, and a lizard! 🐶🐱🐦🐍🦎
We are thrilled to have Dr. Christopher on our team and can't wait for our clients and patients to get to know her.
