VCA Blossom Hill Animal Hospital

For this #SummerSafetyTip, we want you to consider your pet’s paw pads, which are sensitive and prone to burning on hot sidewalks! To help keep them safe on summer walks, check the temperature of the sidewalk with your finger for 5 seconds (if it’s too hot for you, it’ll be too hot for them!) and invest in some dog shoes #VCApets

Temperatures are expected to break records this week -- as far north as Montana! Pet owners: this is a time for caution. As Dr. Tristan Daugherty-Leiter of @VCA Animal Hospitals reminds us, pets can experience heatstroke in just 15 minutes. ... https://www.channel3000.com/as-hot-weather-continues-emerg/

We cannot tell you how much your loyalty and patience have meant to us over this past year. We are very excited to invite our clients back in and see you in person! Beginning next Monday, June 14, 2021, if your pet has an exam scheduled with one of our doctors, we will be offering in-person appointments. Call 408-227-3717 to schedule your pet's appointment. For your safety and the safety of our healthcare team, we ask that you wear a face-covering while you are interacting... with our staff members and anytime you are inside the hospital. Thank you for all your patience and understanding. It is a privilege to serve you. http://vcablossomhill.com/

Two cross-country skiiers were missing overnight in a winter storm. The authorities didn't know where to start searching -- and the clock was ticking. Fortunately, search & rescue dog Please was on the case! Here's the amazing story: https://bit.ly/vcaplease #vcavoice

Huge shout out to the Mingione family for these wonderful sweet surprises!!! We have all been indulging on these amazing little treats

Who could resist this handsome little guy?!? Trish carried him around to make sure his very fist visit to the vet was a positive one. He came in on 10/19/20 to see Dr. Steele and to continue his puppy vaccines.

We tried to do a shout out to the Roszel/Thill/Trader family last week and for some reason it would not post, we did not forget to thank you for our AMAZING cake!!!! Thank you again!!!!!

This amazingly handsome man is Bruce! He came in for a visit on 10/19/20 with Dr. Steele and we could not help but swoon over his handsomeness. Who else thinks this boy is extremely good looking?

It's that time again!!!!!! Our annual pumpkin decorating contest! Please leave a comment on which pumpkin you vote to win

This is Smokey, or as we call him "Schmoke". He is almost 18 years old and going strong. He comes to visit us 3 times a week to get his subcutaneous fluid therapy to help support his kidneys. Please share your kitties in the comments, we would love to see them!

If you are having a bad day, Evee's smile will brighten everyone's day. She is just the sweetest girl. This is a fun one, who can guess her breed?

We are posting this to our page in hopes this will get shared to help reunite this precious baby with it's family. Our lobby is not open to the public to view our "Lost & Found Binder", please feel free to share this post to get the word out. Thank you

Some have snacks in their pockets, some have pens, others may have lint. But Shadia, she has baby kittens in her pockets!

We know you’re so excited to go on some autumn nature walks with your dog, but for this #FallSafetyTip, make sure you watch out for snakes, some of which can be venomous! They’re preparing for hibernation and may be a little crankier if disturbed by a curious pet! When walking or hiking, if something happens to your pet, be sure to contact your veterinarian as soon as possible. #VCApets
