🐾 Happy National Veterinary Technician Week! 🐾

October 18–24 is National Veterinary Technician Week, and we’re kicking off the celebration by recognizing two very special members of our Monroe Animal Care Hospital team — Haven and Mia, our Licensed Veterinary Technicians! ❤️

🩺 Haven joined MACH in July 2025 and serves as our Lead Surgical Technician. She plays an important role in keeping our surgical procedures running smoothly, from preparing patients for surgery and monitoring anesthesia to providing attentive care throughout recovery. Her technical skills, dedication, and commitment to patient safety make her an invaluable part of our hospital.

🩺 Mia joined our team on October 4, 2026, and brings extensive surgical experience and a strong background in veterinary medicine. Although she’s new to MACH, we’re already excited about the knowledge, experience, and skills she brings to our surgical and patient care teams. We’re delighted to welcome her!

🎓 Both Haven and Mia are graduates of Athens Technical College. Becoming a Licensed Veterinary Technician requires a rigorous education in veterinary medicine, hands-on clinical training, and successfully passing a national credentialing examination. Their education and professional licensure reflect a commitment to providing skilled, compassionate veterinary care.

Licensed Veterinary Technicians are an essential part of veterinary medicine. Their responsibilities extend far beyond assisting veterinarians — they are trained professionals who play critical roles in anesthesia, dentistry, laboratory diagnostics, nursing care, surgery, and patient monitoring.

Haven and Mia, thank you for choosing this profession and for sharing your talents with our patients and their families. We appreciate you and are so glad you’re part of the MACH family! ❤️🐾

Please join us in celebrating these two wonderful veterinary professionals!

ALERT: Health officials in Gwinnett County are urging residents to use caution after a bat found dead in a Loganville backyard on Oct. 6 tested positive for rabies. The case comes about a month after another rabid bat was found inside a Snellville home. Officials remind residents that rabies is present in Georgia wildlife year-round and urge them to keep pets’ vaccinations up to date and avoid animals behaving unusually. Unvaccinated dogs and cats exposed to a rabid animal may require a four-month quarantine and vaccination before release.

Rabies attacks the central nervous system and is nearly always fatal once symptoms develop, according to the CDC. Anyone bitten or scratched by a stray animal or one suspected of having rabies should seek medical care immediately and contact GNR Public Health.

🐾 Happy Adopted Dog Day! 🐾

While this may be an unofficial pet holiday, we think our adopted pups deserve every excuse to be celebrated! ❤️

We know so many members of our clinic family have beloved dogs who came from shelters, rescues, or simply found their way into exactly the home they were meant to have. 🏡🐶

We’d love to fill our Facebook feed with your adopted dogs!

📸 Drop a photo of your rescue or shelter pup in the comments and tell us a little about them! Where did you adopt them? How long have they been part of your family? What makes them special?

Whether they’ve been home for 10 days or 10 years, today is a great day to celebrate the dogs who got their second chance—and the families who gave it to them. 💙🐾

Show us those adopted pups! 👇🐕❤️

Our clinic crew took a walk on the wild side! 🦒🦓🐘💚

We had such a fun time visiting the Georgia Safari Conservation Park together! It’s always special getting to spend time with animals, but getting to experience some slightly bigger (and more exotic!) patients than we’re used to made for an unforgettable day. 🐾

We’re so grateful for opportunities like this to step away from the clinic, spend time together as a team, and appreciate the incredible animals we share this world with.

A huge thank you to the Georgia Safari Conservation Park for an amazing experience! 🌿🦒
