Congratulations to Stella for graduating her radiation oncology treatment! 🎓🐾

Stella just completed 20 treatments for an incompletely excised Grade 1 spinal meningioma, and she handled every one like a champ. ❤️

Her brother, Titan, was by her side throughout her treatments, providing some much-needed moral support along the way. 🥹🐶

We’re going to miss seeing this sweet girl, but we’re so happy to see her heading home. Congrats, Stella! 🎉🐾

As temperatures cool and routines change, fall brings a few seasonal hazards for pets to keep in mind:

🍁 Keep pets away from mushrooms and other unknown plants they may find outdoors.

🎃 Keep pumpkins, decorations, and seasonal treats out of reach. Some foods and decorations can be dangerous if swallowed.

🕷️ Continue flea and tick prevention. Parasites remain active in many areas even as temperatures drop.

🌡️ Watch the weather. Cooler temperatures can be uncomfortable or dangerous, especially for small, senior, or short coated pets.

A little preparation can help keep your pet safe and healthy throughout the season. And if your pet gets into something they should not, our emergency team is here when you need us.

Meet Dani and Benny! 🐶❤️

If you’re ever nervous about leaving your pets with us, this is usually what we’re doing with them. 🥰

Dani and Benny came through our ER service after getting into some chocolate on Labor Day. After receiving treatment to safely get the chocolate out of their systems and lots of cuddles, they were ready to head back home! 🐾

We snapped this photo during their treatment because our nursing staff instantly fell in love with these two sweet pups. ❤️

🐾 Meet Binky! 💕 This adorable 8-month-old Bulldog came to AERA for brachycephalic upper airway surgery.

Brachycephalic breeds like Bulldogs can have narrowed airways that make breathing more difficult, especially as they grow. Binky’s surgery was performed to help improve her airway and make breathing easier.

She did great with our team and is now on her way to breathing a little easier! 🐶❤️

We’re so happy to have been part of Binky’s care and can’t wait to see this sweet girl continue to grow!
