Everybody meet Dre! 🐾
Dre is a Pit Bull mix who was rescued from a terrible situation back in 2024. When his owners first got him, he had a severe lesion running all the way down the middle of his back that appeared to possibly be a chemical burn, grease burn, or even a solar burn. Regardless of the cause, the area has continued to bother Dre over time.
Recently, he has become extremely itchy along this area and frequently rolls onto his back to scratch, causing sores and scabbing along his midline. Dre’s owner has tried multiple medications with very little improvement. We were even beginning to consider a more radical approach, such as surgery, before deciding to try laser therapy first.
Cold laser therapy for pets is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity (increases blood flow and promotes healing). It can help relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and accelerate healing for conditions such as arthritis, muscle sprains, wounds, and post-surgical recovery.
We know — it sounds a little high-tech! But laser therapy is actually a cost-efficient, quick, and comfortable treatment option that can benefit a variety of conditions. Many of our clients don’t realize we offer this therapy, so if you think your pet may benefit from laser treatment, feel free to ask us about it at your next visit! ❤️

⚠️We want to make our clients aware of the recent rise in flea-borne typhus cases across Louisiana. Since the beginning of 2025, 17 cases have been reported statewide, all requiring hospitalization, with two reported deaths.⚠️

Flea-borne typhus is spread through infected flea f***s and can affect both people and animals. Fleas carried by rats, opossums, cats, and dogs can spread the disease in both urban and suburban areas.

One of the best ways to help protect your family and pets is consistent, year-round flea prevention. We strongly encourage using veterinary prescription flea prevention products, as many over-the-counter options are less effective and may not provide reliable protection.

If you have questions about which flea prevention is best for your pet, we’re always happy to help. 337-407-8600

The Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners is alerting health care providers to an increase in flea-borne typhus infections across the state, with 17 cases identified since the beginning of 2025, all of which required hospitalization and resulted in two deaths.

Y’all may have heard us talk about Trupanion Pet Insurance in the clinic, or even seen it advertised on TV or social media.

In March 2026, our sweet Pomeranian patient, Cocoa, jumped off the couch and unfortunately broke both her radius and ulna — the two bones in her front leg. Thankfully, Cocoa’s owner already had Trupanion Pet Insurance in place. Not only did they help cover her orthopedic surgery, but they also assisted with post-op splint changes and pain medications as well.

This could have been a very large and unexpected financial burden for Cocoa’s owner, and Trupanion helped ease that stress tremendously. We, as the veterinary clinic, were also incredibly grateful for the support they provided our client and patient. One of the biggest benefits was that Trupanion paid us directly — no waiting on reimbursements or submitting invoices afterward.

We do not receive any benefits or compensation for recommending Trupanion. This post is simply based on how well we felt they took care of our patient and client during an emergency situation. Pet insurance is always a personal choice, but we truly believe it can be incredibly helpful and accommodating when unexpected accidents happen.

If you’d like to learn more, feel free to ask us at your next appointment or visit https://www.trupanion.com/.

SCAM ALERT 💥 SCAM ALERT 💥 SCAM ALERT

It seems we have a scammer messing with our page. PLEASE do not click to buy any products such as t-shirts from any links you see on our page. The only thing we will ever share for you to purchase is our online pharmacy, and typically we send that link directly to you! We are working to fix this, but in the meantime, stay alert. We are so sorry for the confusion.

We know it’s early- but you’d be “loco” not to bring your pet in to take a photo in front of our Cinco De Mayo Fiesta. 🪅🌮

This is “nacho” average backdrop guys…
Gilbert, Cooper and Dr. Ashlyn understood the assignment. 😃
