🐾❤️ A team with heart, both inside and outside the hospital!

This past weekend, our crew traded in their scrubs for running shoes and came together to sponsor and participate in the Lizzy Hammond Foundation 5K!

As a veterinary team, caring for others is at the heart of what we do every day. But being able to come together outside the hospital, support our community, and be part of something bigger makes it even more special.

We are so proud of our staff for showing up, supporting this wonderful cause, and representing our hospital with so much heart and enthusiasm!

A huge thank-you to the Lizzy Hammond Foundation for the incredible work you do and for bringing our community together.

We may spend our days caring for animals, but weekends like this remind us how much heart our team has for people, too! ❤️

🐾💙 HAPPY VET TECH WEEK! 💙🐾

This week, we celebrate our AMAZING veterinary technicians! 🩺🐶🐱

Being a vet tech is so much more than a job. It’s compassion when a patient is scared, patience when things get tough, strength during the hardest moments, and love for every animal that comes through our doors. It’s celebrating the victories, comforting our patients and their families during difficult times, and giving a voice to those who cannot speak for themselves.

To our incredible vet techs: THANK YOU for your dedication, your hard work, your big hearts, and everything you do behind the scenes that often goes unseen. You are the backbone of veterinary medicine, and the difference you make in the lives of our patients and their families is immeasurable. ❤️

We are so grateful for each and every one of you and the heart, skill, and compassion you bring to our team every single day. Veterinary medicine wouldn’t be the same without you!

🐾 Here’s to our amazing vet techs — you are appreciated more than you know! 🐾

Drop some love in the comments for the incredible veterinary technicians who make a difference every day! 💙🐾

🏆🐾 GOLDEN MILK BONE WINNER! 🐾🏆

Help us give a BIG round of applause to Avery our Golden Milk Bone Winner! 🌟

With just 7 months in the veterinary field, she’s already making such a wonderful impact on our team—and it’s easy to see why! 💕 Her favorite part of the job is getting to see all the pets (honestly, we completely understand 😍🐶🐱), and her big dream is to one day start her own animal rescue. 🏡🐾

When she’s not caring for our furry patients, you can find her reading, snowboarding, or getting creative with arts and crafts. 🎨📚🏂

Of course, no introduction would be complete without mentioning her own fur babies, Zamboni and P**f! 🐾❤️

And while she loves seeing all those adorable faces, there is ONE part of the job she could definitely live without… clients yelling at her! 😅 We can’t blame her there!

We’re so lucky to have her on our team and appreciate all the compassion, dedication, and love she brings to our hospital every day. 💛

Congratulations, Avery! You’ve earned your Golden Milk Bone! 🥇🦴✨

🩵 A HUGE thank you to our veterinary community! 🩵

As many of you know, we have been in an evacuation zone and, unfortunately, were unable to place our normal supply order until yesterday. On top of that, we lost all of our perishable supplies during the power outage. 😔

We are currently short on some perishable supplies while we wait for our orders to arrive, but thanks to some amazing neighboring hospitals, we are able to remain mostly operational in the meantime! 🙌

A very special THANK YOU to Damonte, Mountain View, AEC, and Klaich for generously letting us borrow supplies when we needed them most. 🥹💙 Your willingness to help another hospital during a difficult situation means more than you know!

We are so grateful for the incredible veterinary community we have here in Reno. 🐾❤️ Thank you for having our backs! 🙂
