Life at ANC – See What’s Happening

Follow us on Instagram for a closer look at our patients, our team, and the
life-changing work we do every day.

Comet made it clear who's really in charge at ANC today. While the team was getting him cozy with fresh blankets and treats, he decided Megan needed a little "quality time" in his run... and promptly shut the door on her. She was a good sport about her temporary confinement, and Comet's fan club (aka the rest of the team) couldn't stop laughing. Just another day of patient antics keeping us on our toes. 🐾 #ANC #FunnyMoments #TheAnimalNeurologyCenter
