This is what success looks like! Sweet Max came in today for a follow-up on an eye issue.

Before our remodel, clinic visits felt so overwhelming that Max often refused to get out of the car. His family even tried parking down the street in hopes that he wouldn't recognize where he was going.

Lately, things have been very different. Instead of anxiety and hesitation, he has excitement and is eager to come through the door. He is confident going to the scale and into exam rooms, and his tail doesn't stop wagging.

His family shared how much they appreciate all the Fear Free touches we've incorporated throughout the hospital and how Max's experience at the clinic has been completely transformed.

Raw dog food recall grows to more than 180 lots.

The FDA warned that infected pets may shed Listeria, Salmonella, and Campylobacter in saliva and f***s even when they appear clinically normal, creating ongoing exposure risks for people and other animals in the household. Affected products were distributed to customers in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.

The complete list of recalled products and manufacturing date codes is available on the FDA’s advisory page. Clients can report pet illnesses through the FDA Safety Reporting Portal or by contacting Raaw Energy directly at 732-414-1446.

As of May 2026, the number of recalled lots has risen to more than 180.
