🧤❄️ Cozy Today, Itchy Tomorrow? 🐾🍂
The weather’s getting cooler, but fleas and ticks are still active—yes, even in fall!

✔️ They don’t care about sweater weather.
✔️ They will hitch a ride on your pet.
✔️ They won’t leave without a fight.

👉 Don’t pause prevention just because the leaves are falling. Keep your pet protected through the fall and beyond!

🦔 Porcupines Are On the Move! 🐾

Fall is prime time for porcupine activity — which means we’re seeing more dogs come in with painful quills.
Why now?
🔸 It’s mating season, so porcupines are wandering more
🔸 They’re foraging like crazy to prep for winter
🔸 Cooler temps = more off-leash adventures for dogs

Unfortunately, dogs rarely learn their lesson — even if they've been quilled before. 😬

If your pup gets into a prickly situation:
🚫 Don’t pull the quills yourself
🏥 Call us and come in ASAP
🎯 Quills can migrate under the skin and cause serious damage

Let’s keep your pets safe (and quill-free) this fall! 🍂🐶

🐾✨ Did you know pets are considered “seniors” around age 7 (sometimes younger for larger breeds)? Just like people, their health needs change as they age.

Regular senior wellness exams help us:
✅ Catch health concerns early (arthritis, kidney disease, diabetes, dental issues, etc.)
✅ Adjust diet & exercise to keep them feeling their best
✅ Monitor weight, vision, hearing, and mobility
✅ Keep vaccines, parasite prevention, and bloodwork up to date

Your furry friend may be slowing down, but with the right care they can enjoy their golden years comfortably and happily. 💕

📞 Call us today to schedule a senior wellness exam!
