🇺🇸 SOME SACRIFICES DON'T COME WITH A STORY WE GET TO HEAR. 🇺🇸

Somewhere today, a veteran will sit quietly while the rest of the world goes about its business.

They may be a grandfather watching his grandchildren play. A neighbor waving from the driveway. A familiar face standing in line at the grocery store. Or someone sitting across from us, smiling, carrying memories we may never know about.

We may never know what they witnessed, what they endured, what they lost, or what it took to come home and build an ordinary life after living through extraordinary circumstances.

And perhaps that's what we should remember most today.

Behind every uniform was a person.

Someone who had a family, dreams, fears, and a life waiting for them. Someone who answered a call to serve without knowing exactly what that service would ask of them.

Some came home to the people they loved. Some came home forever changed. And some never had the chance to come home at all.

There is no greeting card, social media post, or simple collection of words that can adequately express what we owe those who served.

But we can remember.

We can listen.

We can teach our children that the freedoms woven into their everyday lives were protected by people whose names they may never know.

And we can make sure our veterans understand that their service is not forgotten simply because the world has moved on.

To every veteran:

Thank you for the time you gave that you can never get back.

Thank you for the moments with loved ones you missed.

Thank you for the burdens you carry, including the ones no one else can see.

Thank you for serving a country full of people you would never meet, including all of us.

We may not know your story, but we are grateful that you were willing to write a part of it in service to others.

Today, and every day, you deserve more than our thanks. You deserve our respect, our compassion, and our commitment to never take your sacrifices for granted.

With heartfelt gratitude from all of us at Deerwood Animal Clinic.

🇺🇸 Happy Veterans Day. Thank you for your service. ❤️🤍💙

🦃🐾 DON'T BE A TURKEY… You KNOW the holiday is coming!

Deerwood Animal Clinic will be closing at 12:00 PM on Wednesday, November 25th, and will reopen Monday, November 30th, at 8:00 AM.

🚨 NOW IS THE TIME to request medications and order your pet's food! Please don't wait until the last minute! If your pet needs a special-order medication or food, it may NOT arrive before we close for the holiday.

🚗 Traveling with Fluffy? Make sure their bags are packed, too! Check that you have enough medications, including anything needed for travel anxiety or motion sickness. Nobody wants a carsick copilot! 🤢🐶

🏨 Boarding your pets? CHECK THEIR VACCINES NOW! Contact your boarding facility to confirm their requirements and make sure your pet is up to date. Nothing puts a damper on holiday plans quite like being turned away at check-in or paying higher fees to have vaccines administered there!

📱 Need your pet's vaccine records? You can request a copy 24/7 through our DeerwoodVet App! No need to wait until we're open to submit your request. Just remember, requests made via email or text are processed during business hours. (Another reason to have the Deerwood App!) 😉

🐾 A little planning now means fewer holiday headaches later! Please contact us BEFORE the holiday rush so we can help you and your furry family members get ready.

📞 Call or text us at 904-641-8685.

🚗💥 WELL… THERE GOES THAT IDEA! 😂🐾

We've joked for years about adding a drive-thru window here at Deerwood Animal Clinic…

But after seeing what happened at the nail salon next door, we're officially reconsidering. 😳🤣

Apparently, someone took the whole "drive-thru service" idea a little too literally!

For now, we'll stick to our regular entrance. Four paws through the front door, four wheels in the parking lot, please! 🐾🚗

On a serious note, we hope everyone involved is safe! ❤️

🎁❤️ **AND JUST LIKE THAT... THE LOVE HAS STARTED ARRIVING!** ❤️🎄

Our **FIRST Shoebox of Love donation** has officially arrived at Deerwood Animal Clinic, and we couldn't be more excited! 🥰

This beautiful gift, wrapped with love and kindness, is more than just a box of essentials. It's a reminder to someone experiencing homelessness right here in Jacksonville that **they matter, they're cared for, and they haven't been forgotten.** ❤️

We are so incredibly thankful for our amazing, generous Deerwood Animal Clinic clients who never hesitate to show up when it comes to helping others!

And this is just the beginning! We can't wait to see all the love that's still to come! 🎁

🐾 **Want to be part of something wonderful?**

We're collecting completed **Shoeboxes of Love** in support of Jacksonville's **City Rescue Mission** through December 2nd!

📍 Deerwood Animal Clinic
🕗 Monday–Friday | 8 AM–5 PM

**One box down, and hopefully MANY more to come!** ❤️

Let's keep that kindness rolling, Deerwood family! 🐾🎄

❤️🐾 **SOMETIMES, THE SMALLEST GESTURES LEAVE THE BIGGEST IMPACT.**

Today, a very special client walked through our doors carrying this adorable cake. But it wasn't the cake itself that touched our hearts. It was the reason behind it.

Recently, we had the heartbreaking privilege of helping his beloved dog cross the Rainbow Bridge. After years of caring for his faithful companion, we were there to help make those final moments as peaceful, comfortable, and loving as possible.

Today, in the midst of his own grief, he took the time to thank our team for the care, kindness, and compassion we had shown them throughout the years.

And that meant more to us than he could ever know. ❤️

**Even in life's saddest moments, people find room for gratitude.** And sometimes, that gratitude reminds us exactly why we do what we do.

As veterinary professionals, we don't just care for pets. We build relationships, share in the happy moments, celebrate milestones, and sometimes walk alongside families through their hardest goodbyes.

To this incredibly thoughtful gentleman, thank you. Not just for the cake, but for trusting us with someone you loved so dearly.

**The cake was sweet, but your kindness was even sweeter.** ❤️🐾

With love,
Your Deerwood Animal Clinic Family

(Out of respect for this family's privacy, we've chosen not to share names. Some stories are deeply personal, but the kindness behind them deserves to be celebrated. ❤️🐾)

We could brag about our team…but our clients do it better!

🐾 PSA FROM YOUR FAVORITE VET CLINIC 🐾

We talk to dogs. We talk to cats. One of us has had a deep conversation with a parrot. 🦜

But reading YOUR mind? Absolutely not. We tried. All we got was “did I leave the stove on?” 🧠💨

So listen closely, humans:

🐾 Spend $100 in one visit = 1 Paw Print on the Deerwood App
🐾 Cash them in for nail trims, shampoos, calming sheets, dental discounts, and yes, even our most glamorous service (you know the one 😏)
🐾 OR save them up and trade them in for a $100 ACCOUNT CREDIT! 💰

But wait, there’s a catch (and no, it’s not the laser pointer). 🔦

You MUST tell a team member you want your Paw Print BEFORE you leave the clinic! We have no idea who has the app and who doesn’t. We’re vets, not psychics! 🔮

Forgetting is basically standing outside and throwing money into the wind. 💸🌪️ Your dog would NEVER forget a treat. Be more like your dog. 🐶

📲 Download the Deerwood App on the App Store or Google Play and start collecting!

🐾 WAIT... IT'S NOVEMBER ALREADY?! 🦃🎄

Wasn't it just July?! Apparently, the holidays have decided to sneak up on us again, and your pets' vaccination records might not be ready for the occasion! 😂

✈️ Traveling for the holidays? Whether your furry family members are tagging along or checking into their own luxurious accommodations (aka boarding while you go have fun without them), NOW is the time to check their vaccination and testing requirements!

🚨 HERE'S YOUR FRIENDLY DEERWOOD REMINDER:

✅ Make sure all required vaccines and testing are current.

✅ Check with your boarding facility or travel destination for their specific requirements.

✅ SCHEDULE NOW! Our appointment calendar fills up FAST this time of year, and we would hate for you to miss out!

🐾 Not sure if Fluffy or Fido is up to date?

📱 Check your Deerwood Vet App
📞 Call or text us at 904-641-8685

We're always happy to help you check!

💸 AND HERE'S THE PART THAT CAN REALLY BITE...

Showing up unprepared could cost you more than you bargained for! Many boarding facilities will turn pets away if they aren't compliant, while others may offer last-minute exams and vaccinations at a considerably higher cost.

Nothing says "Happy Holidays" quite like standing at the boarding counter with your suitcase, your dog, and a very expensive problem. 🫣

🎄 MORAL OF THE STORY: Plan ahead, check those records, and get your appointments scheduled BEFORE the holiday madness begins!

Your future self (and your wallet) will thank you. ❤️🐾

⏰🐾 BET YOU FORGOT ABOUT THE TIME CHANGE… BUT YOUR PETS SURE DIDN’T! 😂

Your clock says 7:00 AM.
Your pet’s stomach says 8:00 AM.
And apparently, YOU’RE the one who needs to learn how to tell time! 🤦‍♀️🐶🐱

Daylight Saving Time may have ended, but try explaining that to a furry little dictator who expects breakfast ON THE DOT!

🐾 Here at Deerwood Animal Clinic, we can treat a lot of things… but a pet who’s been told breakfast is an hour late? That’s between you and your furry little supervisor. 🤣

Good luck, pet parents. May your coffee be strong and your treat jar be full! ☕🐾
