🐾❤️ Some heroes wear capes. Some wear scrubs.

Leo's family came to us during one of the scariest moments a pet parent can face, and we're beyond grateful to share that this little fighter is back home, healthy, happy, and thriving. 🎉🐱

Here's the thing—we don't just treat patients. We treat family.

That means keeping you in the loop with updates, sharing those heart-melting recovery videos, answering your questions, and making sure you feel supported every step of the way. Because when your pet is in our care, you're part of the team, too.

Hearing that Leo's family trusted us through such a difficult journey—and that they felt informed, cared for, and confident throughout the process—means everything to us.

To Leo: Keep causing adorable chaos. 😻

To his parents: Thank you for trusting Dr. Hunter and the WAG crew with your precious boy.

And to every pet parent out there: Whether it's a routine checkup, a sudden illness, or an urgent care situation, we're here when you need us most. 💙

⭐️ "If you're looking for a veterinary clinic that truly cares, goes above and beyond, and delivers exceptional results, look no further than WAG Vet."

🚨 When your pet decides to keep life interesting after hours, we've got you covered. 🐾💙

Winston stopped by for an urgent care visit, and while he may have been a little unsure at first, our team made sure he felt safe, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way.

⭐️ "Just had the best urgent care experience this evening. Had a little scare and the Doc saved the day!" - Jennifer S.

That's exactly why we're here — providing compassionate care when you need it most, whether it's a routine wellness visit or an unexpected evening emergency.

We're honored that Winston's family chose WAG Vet for urgent care and even more excited they've made us their veterinary home for everyday care, too. 🏡🐶

Thanks for trusting Dr. Hunter and the WAG crew with your sweet boy. And yes... that wall photo is pretty paw-some. 📸✨

🐾 Got a Busy Day? We've Got You. 🐾

Trying to squeeze a vet visit between meetings, school pickup, errands, and life in general? That's where drop off appointments come in. ✨

With a drop off appointment, you can bring your pet to WAG Vet in the morning, head off to conquer your day, and let our team take care of the rest.

💙❤️ Why pet parents love drop off appointments:

🐕 Less waiting around in the exam room

⏰ More flexibility for your schedule

😍 Lets your furry friends get comfortable in our space

🩺 Gives our veterinarians extra time to perform exams, diagnostics, and treatments as needed

📞 You'll still receive updates and recommendations from our team before any additional services are performed

🚗 Easy drop off, easy pick up

Whether your pet needs a wellness visit, isn't feeling their best, or needs diagnostics, a drop off appointment can be a stress free solution for both of you.

Ready to make your day a little easier? Give us a call and ask for a drop off appointment!

🐾 Busy Schedule? We’ve Got You. 🐾

Did you know WAG Vet offers drop off appointments? ✨

That means you can drop your pet off with our team and pick them up later, making it easier to fit veterinary care into your workday, errands, or “I have seventeen things to do today” kind of schedule. 😅

Bonus? Many pets actually do really well with drop offs because they have time to settle in, relax, sniff around, and get comfortable with our team before their exam or treatment. Sometimes less “walking straight into an appointment” energy = less stress for everybody involved. 💜

Whether your pet needs routine care or urgent care attention, our team is here to make the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible for both of you.

✨ Walk ins welcome
✨ Please call ahead if possible so we can be ready for you and your pet

Listen. We love a backyard cookout moment as much as the next person… but your dog absolutely does NOT need a hot dog, three chips, half a burger, and “just a tiny bite” from every guest at the party. 😅🐾

As you head into Memorial Day weekend, here are a few quick pet safety reminders from your friends at WAG Vet:

🔥 Keep pets away from grills, sparklers, and hot surfaces
🍔 Skip the BBQ scraps because fatty foods and bones can cause serious tummy trouble
💦 Columbia heat is no joke, so keep fresh water and shade nearby
🚪 Make sure collars, tags, and microchips are updated before guests start opening doors every five seconds
🎆 Loud noises and crowds can stress pets out, even the social butterflies

Basically: protect the vibes AND the pets this weekend. 💜
