“Happy Visit” = free trip to the vet, all the patients get are treats and cuddles! Not only does this allow them to build more positive associations with the vet, but it allows us to know what distraction technique works best for them! Do they love head scratches? Are they highly treat motivated? Do they relax when you pet their belly? Life’s greatest questions answered in a happy visit! Call your vet and see if they offer them! #apccvet #happyvisit #fearfreetechniques #petcare #animalhospital

Recreation of a real event that happened here 😭😂 had everyone STRESSIN for a minute thinking about what was about to walk in 😭 #apccvet #vetmed #vetassistant #petcare #animalhospital

Replying to @marladownss guys!!! We have the best update. After waiting almost an entire year, Chestnut was adopted 🥳🤩and he is going to the best home ever 🫶 our kennel team worked tirelessly to make sure his stay here, though not the ideal way for a dog to live long term, was the best it could be 💞💞💞 so enjoy some good news today!!! #apccvet #petadoption #goodnews #adoptionstory #petcare

Yes we got the first vid after the nail trim so Vandaal had peanut butter on her basket muzzle 😭😂 If your pet is anxious during nail trims, there are so many things our team can do to help them feel better 😊😊 Whether it starts at home with some anti anxiety meds, using a basket muzzle so they have room to pant, giving treats to distract them, gentle handling or head tapping, bringing them to a separate quiet room, we will help your pet have a stress free visit! Vandaal used to be SO anxious during nail trims but through time and patience… i think she knows she’s coming here to get a lot of treats! 💅 #apccvet #fearfree #fearfreepractices #animalhospital #petcare #rottweiler #rottie #anxiousgirl #vettech #vetassistant

Green flags: WHERE?!!!!! We love everyone, but these pet parents are just 🤌🤌🤌 And a special note: prevention is the best, and most cost effective approach, in managing your pet’s health! Many of the suggestions in this video, like teeth brushing, wellness exams, flea and heartworm preventative, are all preventative steps you can take to take the reigns on your pet’s health and prevent a lot of other issues!!! And… if you get pet insurance… you can get plans that cover lots of these things!! 🫶🫶🫶 what questions do you have??? #apccvet #greenflag #where #animalhospital #veterinarian #vettech #petparent

Y’all are never gonna guess right on this one 🙈🙈🙈 shout out to Maty for being a willing participant in this trend and if you recognize Chestnut from the video we posted a few weeks ago, have no fear he is still with his forever family, he is just boarding with us for a little bit while they are out of town 💗 #apccvet #whoseoutfit #whoseiswhose #animalhospital #petpatient

What did all that work get us? 💕A more positive experience for our patient! 💃The vet can be a really uncomfortable and fearful place for our patients, so we understand why they are apprehensive of us administering necessary treatments! Here’s some techniques we used: 🐾We separated the patient into a quiet room away from our normal treatment area. 🐾 The patient is wearing a basket muzzle, which allows them full capability to pant (which is how dogs can relax themselves) 🐾 Going Slow- we spent a lot of time petting the patient, earning their trust, so they would be more relaxed when treatments came! 🐾 Distraction! Our team both used distraction petting and distraction noises. Listening to this recording was so funny because the noises that our team made to keep our patient distraction were truly one of a kind.😂😂 #apccvet #animalhospital #fearfree #fearfreetechniques #anxiouspatient #vettech #vetassistant #rvt
