November is the perfect time to think about your small dog’s cold weather needs. 🍂

Smaller and short-coated breeds feel the drop in temperature much faster than larger dogs and may need a little extra help staying comfortable on outdoor walks.

A well-fitted dog sweater or coat can make a big difference in how much they actually enjoy being outside this season. 🐾

Getting your canine companion in the Halloween spirit? Before you head out for spooky strolls:
✔ Add a clip on light or reflective leash for evening visibility
✔ Keep the candy bowl far away and keep pet-safe treats on hand instead

Growing older doesn't always look old. 🐾
As dogs age, changes can happen quietly. Even when they're still playing, eating, and enjoying life, important health changes may already be starting beneath the surface.
That's why regular Annual Exams are so important. These visits help identify subtle changes sooner, giving you and your veterinary team more opportunities to support your dog's health, comfort, and quality of life.
Signs of aging aren't always obvious—but they matter:
✔ Changes in appetite or thirst
✔ Changes in weight or body condition
✔ Sleeping more or less than usual
✔ Subtle changes in behaviour or energy
✔ Changes in mobility, vision, hearing, or bathroom habits
Early detection can help us better understand your dog's health today—and support them through many healthy years ahead.

Fall is here! 🍂🐾

There is something so quietly powerful about an older dog just taking it all in. Those grey muzzles have seen things, loved deeply, and shown up every single day without fail.

October is a great reminder to slow down and cherish every single walk. 🧡

Autumn was made for dogs and they know it. 🍂🐾

Crisp air, crunchy leaves, and a pup who is absolutely living their best life. Fall walks are genuinely one of the best things about having a dog. They make you get outside even when you'd rather stay in and for that we are eternally grateful. 🧡

What's your favorite thing about fall walks with your dog?

Did you know cats can actually sense the season changing before you do? 🍂

Shorter daylight hours trigger shifts in your cat's behavior, appetite, and sleep patterns. You might notice them eating a little more, sleeping longer, or seeking out warmer spots around the house as October sets in. It's completely normal and just their body responding to the change in light. 🐱

That thick double coat is gorgeous but it comes with some responsibility! 🍂🐾

Shelties and other double-coated breeds actually shed more heavily during seasonal transitions, and October is prime time for it. Regular brushing during fall helps remove loose undercoat, prevents matting, and keeps their skin healthy going into winter. A good deshedding routine now saves your furniture later. 😂
