Happy National Pit Bull Awareness Day! 🐶❤️

Today is all about celebrating these incredibly loyal, affectionate, and goofy dogs.

Today is National Make A Dog’s Day! 🐶

While it's a great reminder to spoil the pups already safe and cozy in our homes, this day was originally created with a special mission: to shine a light on shelter dogs waiting for their forever families.
In particular, today is about celebrating the "underdogs"—the senior pups, special needs dogs, and long-term residents who are often overlooked but have so much love to give.

How you can make a dog's day today:
🏡 Adopt or Foster: Open your heart to a shelter animal.
Volunteer: Offer your time to walk or play with local rescue dogs.
🎁 Donate: Drop off toys, blankets, or treats at your local shelter.
Let's help every dog feel loved today! 🐾

This National Veterinary Technician Week, we're celebrating the incredible Associates who make our hospitals thrive — like Karen, who began as a CSR and never stopped growing and like Joanne, who sought mentorship and support to obtain her VTNE.

At VCA, we're proud to champion our veterinary technicians every step of the way — offering mentorship, encouragement, and the resources to help you reach your full potential.

To every vet tech in our VCA family: thank you. What you do matters deeply — to our teams, to our patients, and to the pet owners who trust us with their most beloved companions.

Did you know? Black cats often experience lower adoption rates and stay in shelters significantly longer than cats with lighter or multi-colored coats—a phenomenon sometimes called "black cat syndrome".
Misconceptions linking black cats to bad luck, witches, or bad omens persist, peaking around Halloween. Don't let them spook you out of finding your purrfect feline family member!

Every surgery starts long before the first incision. It starts with a veterinary technician who has spent years mastering their skills, anticipating needs, monitoring vitals, and showing up fully prepared for every patient who comes through the door.

Vet techs are the heart of every OR team, and their skill and dedication make a difference every single day. At some VCA specialty hospitals, we take surgical collaboration even further. Some of our teams include Certified Surgical Technologists (CSTs) — professionals who earned specialized degrees specifically to support surgeons in the OR.

The result? Less time under anesthesia. Better outcomes. And a team that truly works as one. 💙

Because every patient is somebody's pet — and they deserve nothing less than the best.
