🐾💉 We’re hiring: Veterinary Assistant / Technician 💉🐾

Do you love vet med — the hands-on, fast-paced, “we’ve got each other” kind of vet med? We’re looking for someone who truly enjoys being part of a team, jumps in where needed, and cares about doing right by our patients and clients every single day.

One thing that matters a lot to us: there’s no “doctor vs. tech vs. assistant” separation here. We’re one team. We all depend on each other, we all help each other, and we all step in to make the day work — for the pets, for the clients, and for each other.

What we’re hoping you’re confident in (or excited to grow into):
🐾 Placing catheters (IV)
🐾 Assisting in surgery + patient prep
🐾 Helping during appointments and treatments
🐾 Patient handling/restraint with kindness and confidence
🐾 Has VetMed experience

The kind of teammate we’re looking for:
✨ You communicate, you show up, and you pitch in
✨ You care about good medicine and you want to keep learning
✨ You stay calm and thoughtful on busy days
✨ You love animals — and you also love teamwork (because we really mean it)

If you’re the type of person who gets excited about building skills, helping patients feel safe, and being surrounded by people who love vet med as much as you do… we’d love to meet you.

🚨 FOUND KITTEN – PLEASE SHARE 🚨

This sweet little guy was found today outside Kuramoto's Japanese Restaurant in the Village. He is a young, unneutered male with no microchip or collar.

He seems well cared for — he’s chunky, healthy-looking, and very friendly — so we believe someone is missing him and worried.

❤️ We’d really love to get this little man back home.
If you recognize him or have any information, please call us at 615-288-5630 or send us a message.

Please share to help reunite him with his family!

🦃🍁 Thanksgiving is here, WildThings family! 🍁🦃

Just a reminder that we will be closed Thursday and Friday for the holiday. We’ll reopen next week, ready to take care of all your pets’ needs.

Before the cooking (and the eating!) begins, here’s your gentle holiday reminder:
Thanksgiving food + pets = a recipe for trouble.
Even small amounts of turkey skin, gravy, buttery sides, or anything rich can lead to pancreatitis, which is extremely painful and can become an emergency fast.

👉 Best rule: Keep the feast on the table and stick to your pet’s normal diet. Those big eyes may be cute… but ER bills aren’t. 😅

If an emergency pops up while we’re closed, you can reach out to any of these trusted hospitals:
🐾 NVS – Clarksville: (931) 551-2121
🐾 Little Angels Urgent Care – Clarksville: (931) 338-1829
🐾 BluePearl – Franklin & Nashville: (615) 383-2600
🐾 VEG (treats exotics!): (629) 235-4420

From all of us at WildThings, we hope your holiday is full of warmth, gratitude, and extra snuggles from your four-legged family members.
🍂 Happy Thanksgiving! 🐾💛

📣 Meet Reagan — How a Routine Dental Uncovered Something Bigger 💙🐾

Hi everyone, meet sweet Reagan. She’s a 13-year-old mixed-breed girl who came to see us after months of reverse sneezing. Recently, she also started eating less and losing a little weight, which worried her family.

Since Reagan had never had a dental before, her owner elected to schedule one to see if dental disease might be the cause.

Once she was sedated and we prepared to intubate her, we made a discovery that we never would’ve seen on a normal physical exam: a large mass hidden deep in the back of her mouth, only visible once her tongue was fully extended. This explained the reverse sneezing, gagging, and decreased appetite.

Because of the location, this mass cannot be seen during a routine visit — it was only detectable after sedation.

To learn more, her family elected to do chest X-rays to check for spread (metastasis). Thankfully, everything looked clear.

We then discussed treatment options:
🔹 Surgical removal is possible, but it is risky due to how the mass spreads through the tissue in the mouth and how firmly it is attached.
🔹 Another option was AlphaFlo, a biologic injection we’ve had great success with for helping shrink certain masses, especially in older pets or in areas where surgery is more complicated.

Reagan’s family chose to try the AlphaFlo first.

She came back one week later. Her cough had improved, and she’d only had one episode of reverse sneezing. She was brighter and more comfortable overall. Under sedation, we rechecked the mass and found that it is definitely shrinking, which is very encouraging.

However, because of the way the mass extends through the tissues in her mouth and how strongly it’s connected, surgery would still be a complex and high-risk option. Her family is looking at all choices and focusing on keeping Reagan comfortable — and right now, she is acting like her normal, happy senior girl. They will come back for a follow up to see if the mass will shrink more.

We wanted to share Reagan’s story because:
💙 Diagnostics matter — we often find things in the most unexpected places.
💙 AlphaFlo can be an incredible option for pets who aren’t ideal surgical candidates.
💙 Every pet deserves a customized plan, and Reagan is a perfect example of teamwork between a pet’s family and the veterinary team.

Sending all our love to Reagan — the sweetest old girl with a big heart and a big spirit. 💙🐾 a prome spot

The goal of veterinary medicine should always be the same — what helps the pet the most.

That's why Elevated Care Isn’t Just a Motto… It’s Our Mission.

We believe veterinary medicine works best when everyone is working together. That’s why our team isn’t afraid to collaborate, call specialists for input, or bring advanced services directly into our hospital when it means better care for your pet.

Your pet deserves a team — and we’re proud to be part of it. 💛

What Makes WildThings Different?
We bring advanced care directly to our community.

Instead of sending you across Nashville every time something complex comes up, we’ve added specialty-level diagnostics right here in Pleasant View.

🔍 In-House Ultrasound (Pet-Friendly & Comfortable)

Our ultrasounds are:
• Safe, gentle, and painless
• Often done with light sedation so anxious pets can relax
• Reviewed by Dr. Larson, a trusted diagnostic expert with Music City Pet Internal Medicine
• Easily shared with YOUR primary vet — whether you’re a WildThings client or not

👉 You do NOT have to be a client to schedule an ultrasound with us.

🦴 Advanced Orthopedic & Specialty Surgery (Right Here at Home)

We’re honored to work with Dr. Jeff Nunley, DVM, DACVS, a board-certified surgeon with decades of experience.
By bringing Dr. Nunley to WildThings, your pet gets specialty-level surgery without long travel, crowded waiting rooms, or an unfamiliar hospital.

Procedures available onsite include:
• TPLO / ACL Repair
• Fracture Repair
• TECA
• Laryngeal Tie-Back
• Shoulder OCD Surgery
• And more

Why We Collaborate

Because when vets talk to each other, patients win.
We openly consult with:
• Your primary veterinarian - If you receive an ultrasound
• Local specialists
• Diagnostic partners

Everyone works together. Everyone communicates. Everyone has the same goal:

Helping your pet feel better as quickly and comfortably as possible.

This is Elevated Care — the WildThings way. 🐾💛

Wildlife teaches us lessons everyday if we're looking and listening...

“I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself.” - D.H. Lawrence

The whole situation was unfair. He was only 8 months old when he stepped into an illegal trap that would cost him one of his front legs.

I cried for him.
I cried for the loss of his limb.
I cried for the injustice of it all.

But he did none of that…

When he woke up from his amputation surgery, he immediately tried to stand. It took him a matter of seconds to realize that the limb wasn’t there and to adjust his weight accordingly so he could still move around.

He didn’t sulk.
He simply adjusted.

In the coming weeks, he taught himself how to dig, hunt and run all over again. Even with only three limbs, he passed all necessary tests for release back into the wild. Up until then, it was assumed that foxes in rehab in our state would not survive in the wild after an amputation. I was thankful the state allowed me the opportunity to test that theory.

He was named Phoenix and he taught us far more than we ever taught him.

We will all experience loss in our lives. Some of those losses can make us move forward in life feeling unwhole. Maybe it’s a break up, the loss of a job or a dream that just didn’t turn out how we hoped it would.

Phoenix taught me that healing doesn’t mean what’s missing comes back. It means we have adjusted. We have shifted as needed to push forward - to persevere.

We are not defined by our losses, but by our strength, our endurance and all we are willing to conquer and overcome. We are forged through the fire.
