"We'd like to speak to your manager about why you keep breaking up the treats instead of giving them to us whole. This is unacceptable customer service." 😐🐾

The perfect duo: Lyan & Mia! 💕🐾

This is Lyan, doing what she does best making every patient feel like family.

And this sweet girl in her arms is Mia, who was more than happy to soak up all the extra snuggles.

Lyan brings so much heart, warmth, and care to our clinic every single day, and you can just see it in moments like this.

I've seen quite a few social media posts lately comparing pet surgery costs, and I want to encourage pet parents to **compare apples to apples.** 🍎🐾

At Chain of Lakes Animal Clinic, your pet has a **dedicated surgical team** for every procedure — typically **1 veterinarian and 2–3 veterinary technicians** — regardless of how routine or complex the surgery may be.

That team is dedicated to your pet before, during, **and after** their procedure. We're monitoring their comfort, providing potty breaks, helping regulate body temperature, and watching closely for any changes.

During surgery, we continuously monitor:
❤️ EKG & heart rate
🩺 Blood pressure
💨 CO₂ & respiratory rate
🫁 Oxygen saturation
🌡️ Body temperature

And most importantly, **experienced team members are dedicated to monitoring your pet throughout the entire procedure.**

When comparing, remember that the price isn't just about the procedure itself. **The level of monitoring, staffing, experience, equipment, and individualized care matter, too.**

It's these details — the things you may not see — that help set us apart. 🐾❤️

Pictured is Jaime, one of our surgery technicians. She has decades of experience, is a Certified Veterinary Technician (which means she went to college for this profession), and icing on top, treats your pets with love 😍
