From hospital milestones to community events, here is a look at what has been happening across Vets Pets.
Half Way There!
We are about halfway through our Purr-fect Pace Challenge, and the competition is heating up!
Whether you are walking, jogging, biking, or hiking your way through the challenge, every mile counts. More importantly, every mile is a little time you are giving back to yourself.
Keep moving, keep having fun, and do not forget to send us your photos along the way. We would love to share in your Purr-fect Pace adventures!
Here is your Mid-Month Leaderboard, with biking miles adjusted for a fair comparison:

Companion Pharmacy, Hayes Barton Pharmacy, and Vets Pets are partnering to provide flu shots at no cost to Vets Pets employees at practices across the state.
Please register in advance using the link below. If you have health insurance, we will file the flu shot with your insurance company at no out-of-pocket cost to you. If you do not have insurance, Vets Pets will cover the cost.
Registration is required by noon the day before your scheduled clinic. If no employees are registered for a practice by the deadline, the flu shot clinic at that location will be canceled.
