ARE YOU ENTITLED TO A REBATE?

   

If you bought any of these products here in 2023, you may have qualified for a rebate:

  • GALLIPRANT (any bottle with more than 30 pills)
  • BRAVECTO (two doses or more for the same pet)
  • TRIFEXIS (6 dose package)
  • REVOLUTION PLUS (6 dose package in the last 60 days)
  • CONVENIA SHOT (if your pet weighs more than 20 lbs and it happened in the last 60 days)
  • CERENIA TABLETS (in the last 60 days)
  • HEARTGARD PLUS (year supply)
  • NEXGARD (at least 6 doses for the same pet on the same invoice)

ALL OF THESE PRODUCTS HAVE REBATE PROGRAMS
(and most will continue through 2024)

If you aren't sure, we can look it up for you. Only purchases in the hospital generate rebates (on line pharmacy purchases do not). For most purchases, you need to have sent in an image or copy of your receipt by March 1st so it may not be too late. Money back is always good.

For details, the 2023 Rebate page on our web site (including the necessary links to apply) can be found at:

BON VOYAGE, KAREN! ENJOY RETIREMENT!

 

Karen(Original graphic by marvistavet.com)

This month we wish a fond farewell to Karen Avines who has been working at our hospital since 1981.

Her dogs have been assistant receptionists for years starting with Panda, the little gray poodle mix that you may remember from the late 90's.

She kept us going during the pandemic and beyond and we all wish her the best in her retirement.

She will miss you all and treasures her time in the animal health business.

DID YOU KNOW ...

            ...THAT DOGS CLASSIFIED AS "NOT ACTIVE" HAVE A 6 AND A HALF TIMES GREATER CHANCE OF
CANINE COGNITIVE DYSFUNCTION (the dog version of Alzheimer's Disease)?

We've known regular exercise to help delay and prevent cognitive issues for older people but now we know it is true for dogs.

If you have an older dog, it is especially important to engage them in physical activity.

We have new treatments for arthritis if that is a barrier. Get active with your dog. It's good for both of you!
