UPDATE: Fuzzy has a new home with Emma, where she gets to be the Queen of the house! They hit it off immediately, and we are so happy and excited for both of them! Thank you for adopting her, Emma! P.J. Is definitely smiling. 😊

Fuzzy the kitty is in need of a new indoor home. She is about 6 years old, weighs 9 lbs, is spayed and up-to-date on all vaccines. She has a gorgeous long gray coat with some white markings, and is as soft as a rabbit. Her owner passed away and directives were for us to find her a good home. Fuzzy loves attention & affection on her terms. She seems to get along fine with small dogs, but we aren’t sure about other cats. She would not be an ideal candidate for a home with small children, as she definitely has a bit of tortitude in her mix. If you have room on your lap and are interested in meeting Fuzzy, give us a call at 406-755-8214.

Dental Month is normally held each February, and we typically run a special, but we aren't able to do as many dentals as we have requests. So we are going to hold a Dental Month again for October 2026!

Give us a call to get scheduled and save 15% off the cost of a dental! The discount is for the price of the dental cleaning only, and does not include bloodwork, x-rays, extractions, etc.

Dental health is an important part of a pet's overall health. A pet's teeth and gums should be checked at least once a year by a veterinarian.

We know that noticing a lump on your dog or cat can be concerning, and knowing what to do next isn’t always clear. That’s why we’re excited to offer VISTA iQ, our new in-clinic lump assessment technology.

It’s a fast, non-invasive scan that helps us better understand what a lump may be in real-time at your appointment.

With VISTA iQ, we can:

🐾 Scan the lump in just 40 seconds
🐾 Get the results within 2 minutes
🐾 Assess the risk of the lump for cancer
🐾 Get diagnostic-level insight without needles, sedation, or discomfort

This provides us with clearer answers upfront and helps guide our next steps- whether that’s monitoring, further testing, or treatment. For many dogs and cats, it can help avoid unnecessary procedures.

If your dog has a lump, schedule an appointment for a VISTA iQ scan to get quick answers easily.

👉 Give us a call at (406) 755-8214, to book your pet’s VISTA iQ scan today.

"Research has shown that pet companions contribute to reduced stress, increased physical activity, improved cardiovascular outcomes, enhanced emotional stability and social connection in their humans. Pets also depend on their owners for care."

The human-animal bond is often so strong that pet owners may delay or forgo medical treatment or leave a health care facility against medical advice if they have no one to care for their pet at home. A perspective paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine explains why pet owners may nee...
