🎃👻 A Little Halloween Fun at Southtowns! 🐾🧡

Our furry friends are getting into the Halloween spirit, and we couldn’t resist sharing a few of the adorable costumes we’ve seen this year! 🥰

🐾 Hope & Quigley stole the show with their creative costume pairing! Quigley dressed as a blind man and Hope as his seeing-eye dog. Talk about a perfect duo! 🦮🕶️

🐶 Dr. Hartman & Piper got in on the Halloween fun, too! Piper is looking festive and ready for trick-or-treating! 🎃

🐾 And of course, Jess’s pups, Penny & Tianna, are joining in on the Halloween fun!

🎃 A Few Halloween Safety Reminders! 🐾

While Halloween is full of fun and treats for us, it can bring a few extra hazards for our pets!

🍫 Keep chocolate, candy, and sugar-free treats containing xylitol safely out of reach.

🎃 Keep decorations, electrical cords, and candles away from curious paws and noses.

🐶 Be mindful of costumes! Make sure they fit comfortably and don’t restrict movement, breathing, or vision.

🚪 With trick-or-treaters coming and going, keep pets secure and away from open doors to prevent accidental escapes.

We hope everyone has a safe, happy, and treat-filled Halloween! Don’t forget to share your pets’ costumes with us. We love seeing them! 🧡🐕🐈

Happy Halloween from all of us at Southtowns Animal Hospital! 🎃🐾

🩺 What Role Do Veterinary Technicians Play in Preventive Care?

Preventive care is about helping pets stay healthy and catching potential health concerns early. Veterinary technicians are an important part of that process!

🐾 Wellness Visits: Helping gather important information about a pet’s health during routine appointments.

💉 Vaccinations & Parasite Prevention: Helping keep pets protected against preventable diseases and parasites.

⚖️ Weight & Overall Health: Monitoring weight and discussing changes that may affect a pet’s well-being.

💛 Client Education: Helping pet owners understand the importance of routine exams, recommended testing, and staying up to date on preventive care.

Regular wellness visits help your veterinary team keep track of your pet’s health over time and identify concerns that may need further attention.

Prevention is an important part of giving our pets the healthiest, happiest lives possible! 🐶🐱

Both Cassidy and Alexis are graduates of Medaille College and have been part of our Southtowns Animal Hospital team for the past couple of years! We’re so grateful to have them on our team and appreciate the knowledge, dedication, and care they bring to our patients every day. 💙

🔬 What role do veterinary technicians play in laboratory work?

Did you know that some of the most important clues about your pet’s health come from laboratory testing? 🩺🐶🐱

Veterinary technicians help with many aspects of diagnostic testing, including:

🧪 Collecting & Preparing Samples: Blood, urine, and other samples can provide valuable information about a pet’s health.

🔬 Running Laboratory Tests: In-house testing helps our team gather important information to assist veterinarians in evaluating their patients.

🩺🧡 Veterinary Technician Week Spotlight: Jess & Katelin! 🐾

Today, we’re highlighting Jess and Katelin and the important role veterinary technicians play in surgery and anesthesia!

✨ Meet Jess! ✨
Jess is a graduate of Medaille College and also helps out at the Erie County rabies clinics! When she’s not caring for patients, you can find her enjoying all things Disney or spending time with her two pups, Tianna and Penny. You may recognize Tianna from hanging out in our reception area!

🩺 What role do veterinary technicians play in surgery and anesthesia?

Their work goes far beyond assisting with a procedure! Veterinary technicians help prepare patients for surgery, get equipment ready, monitor vital signs throughout anesthesia, and closely watch patients as they wake up.

Monitoring heart rate, breathing, oxygen levels, and temperature helps the veterinary team keep a close eye on each patient throughout the procedure and recovery. Their knowledge, attention to detail, and compassionate care are essential at every step. ❤️🐾

We’re so thankful for Jess and Katelin and all the hard work they put into caring for our patients every day, both in surgery and throughout the hospital!
