💙 Meet Knight! 💙🐾

Everyone, meet Knight, the German Shepherd puppy! 🐶👑 Knight came to Crossroads Animal Hospital for his very first puppy exam, and we were so excited to meet this handsome little guy!

His first visit is an important step toward a healthy, happy life! 🩺❤️ Puppy exams help us monitor growth and development, discuss vaccinations and parasite prevention, and answer any questions new puppy parents may have.

We look forward to watching Knight grow into a strong, healthy, and happy German Shepherd! 🐾

Help us give Knight a big welcome in the comments! 💙
