Happy Tuesday, everyone!
Today we have two very special patients and two very different reasons to celebrate!
We recently had the pleasure of seeing siblings Lucy and Smoke, and each gave us something special to smile about.
**Lucy is our newest Super Senior!**
At 11 years young, Lucy certainly didn't get the memo that she's a senior. She came in looking—and acting—more like a puppy! We love seeing our senior patients thriving, and Lucy is a wonderful reminder that getting older doesn't mean slowing down.
**And then there was Smoke, finding his bravery!**
Smoke is a 1-year-old mixed breed who came in feeling very unsure about the hospital. The unfamiliar environment—and especially those scary wood floors—were a lot for him at first. So, we took our time. With plenty of patience, encouragement, and treats, Smoke slowly started to realize that maybe this place wasn't so bad after all.
By the end of his visit, his tail was wagging, and he was happily taking treats from us.
Two very different patients at two very different stages of life—but both gave us something worth celebrating.
Way to go, Lucy and Smoke, a very special thanks to their dog-dad Paul who shared so lovingly about both of his pups.
