Veterinary Assistant is more than a role, it’s a career path filled with opportunities to learn, grow, and make a meaningful impact.

Through VCA’s Career Progression Program, Associates can build new skills and advance through five program levels designed for Veterinary Assistants. Associates are also supported and encouraged to earn their AVA designation.

This Veterinary Assistant Week, we’re celebrating the dedication, compassion, and hard work of Veterinary Assistants across our hospitals. Thank you for everything you do!

🐾 Fear Free care makes a big difference—for pets and the people who love them 🐾 At our hospital, we’re proud that every member of the VCA Peone Pines team is Fear Free certified. That means we’re trained to recognize fear, anxiety, and stress in pets—and to take extra steps to make each visit as calm and positive as possible.

From gentle handling and tasty distractions, to low-stress exam techniques, pre-visit medications when needed, and tailored visits for nervous pets, everything we do is focused on helping your pet feel safe and supported 🐶🐱

Because better experiences at the vet don’t just make visits easier, they help pets receive better care throughout their lives.

💙 Ready to make your pet’s next visit a low-stress one? Call us at 509-466-7115 to schedule an appointment and ask how we can support a Fear Free experience for your pet.

Here’s a little reminder: giving treats is more than just a snack—it’s love in action. 🐾💛

When you hand your dog or cat a treat, it’s not just about food. It’s a moment of connection, a tiny celebration, a way to say, “I see you, I care about you, and you make my day better.”

Taking a few seconds to reward your furry friend can lift both their spirits and yours. That simple act of kindness strengthens your bond, brings joy, and reminds us that love can be found in the smallest gestures. 🐶🐱✨

So today, give a treat, share a smile, and soak in the happiness that comes with it. 💛🐾

Those puppy eyes are powerful… but calories still count! 🐾

Treats are a great training tool, but they can add up quickly. Try breaking larger treats into smaller pieces—you’ll keep your pet’s attention without overdoing the calories.

Want to make treats last even longer? Use a puzzle toy or treat ball to turn snack time into enrichment time. More fun, more mental stimulation, and fewer extra calories = a win all around!

🐾 We’re still offering FREE HomeAgain microchips through the SCRAPS program to help keep pets safe and make reunions possible if they ever get lost. It’s a quick, simple step that adds lifelong protection—especially helpful for curious puppies, travel adventures, and those “how did they even get out?!” moments we all know too well 😅

If you’ve never been in to see us before, take advantage of our FREE first exam offer! Get a health exam with one of our amazing doctors and the added peace of mind of a microchip at the same visit 🐶🐱

A few important requirements:
• Appointment required (available only on Thursdays)
• Pet must have proof of current rabies vaccination
• Must be a Spokane County resident

Microchips provide permanent identification that can’t fall off like a collar or tag, greatly improving the chance your pet makes it back home safely.

📞 Call us to schedule your appointment: 509-466-7115 and ask about the FREE SCRAPS microchip program!

Here’s a little reminder for today: you are loved unconditionally—and not just by people, but by your furry friends too. 🐾❤️

Our pets have a way of showing us that love doesn’t come with conditions or expectations. They just care, snuggle, and sit by your side no matter what.

Take a moment to soak in that love and remember it for yourself as well. You deserve patience, kindness, and compassion, from yourself and from the ones who adore you. 💛

Let today be a small celebration of unconditional love, the kind that heals, comforts, and reminds us we are never truly alone. 🐶🐱✨

If attending in person is not your thing, you can still join the fun virtually and help support the lifesaving work Spokanimal does for pets in our community.

Sometimes, the best therapy comes with four paws and a wagging tail. 🐾💌

Take a moment today to write a little love note to your dog. Tell them what you love about them, how they brighten your days, or just how thankful you are for their snuggles.

It might feel silly but studies show that expressing gratitude and connection can boost your mental health, lower stress, and even make you feel happier in the moment. And let’s be honest, our pups probably don’t need the reminder, they already think they’re perfect. 🐶❤️

So grab a pen (or just whisper it out loud) and let your furry best friend know how much they mean to you. Sometimes a little love goes a very long way for both of you. 💛🐾
