Understanding Cataracts: Why Early Eye Care Matters for Pets 👁️🐾

Did you know? The lens of the eye, the clear part behind the iris that helps focus vision is made of proteins that don’t regenerate. The ones we (and our pets) are born with have to last a lifetime.

That’s why early care is so important. 🐶🐱

For Our Pets, This Means:

🩺 Starting eye health habits early
👀 Scheduling regular vet eye exams
🥦 Feeding a diet rich in antioxidants
🌞 Protecting against UV light and injury

If we wait until the eye(s) is cloudy, cataracts may already be doing damage. Early detection and prevention are key to keeping your pet’s eyes bright, healthy, and comfortable for years to come. 💚

Noticing changes in your pet’s eyes or vision? Book an appt today, we’re here to help protect what matters most. 🐕🐈‍⬛

Muzzles are more than a safety tool, they’re also a wellness tool! They can protect dogs 🐕 with:

– 🥜 Food allergies or special diets

– 🤢 Sensitive stomachs who tend to pick up “street food” and garbage

– 🧦 Pica or chewing habits (sticks, rocks, socks!)

They even stop strangers from handing out treats that could be harmful to the dog. 🙅‍♀️🍪 Let’s normalize muzzle use as part of thoughtful, loving dog care to protect our pups from harmful foods, damage to their mouth and swallowing things that are indigestable! 💚 It’s a proactive way to protect dogs with medical or behavioral needs. 🐶🐾

This important message from and .muzzle.movement really resonated with our team and we wanted to share it with our community. 💛🐾

“But my dog’s never bitten anyone…”

It’s something many pet parents say and we completely understand. But dogs living with chronic pain, stress, and medical conditions can sometimes shift behaviour, even in the kindest pets. 🐶 This is why muzzle training can be an important part of care, even for dogs who’ve never shown signs of aggression:

🔹 A well-fitted, welfare-friendly muzzle allows panting, drinking, and treats

🔹 It’s not about expecting aggression, it’s about being prepared

🔹 It helps keep pets and people safe if pain ever causes a shift in behaviour

As they put it: “A muzzle is like a seatbelt: you don’t wait for a crash to buckle up.” 🦮🚗 Visit and .muzzle.movement to learn more.

July is National Pet Hydration Awareness Month! 💧 Keeping your pet hydrated is essential for their health, from supporting kidney function to regulating body temperature. Dehydration in pets can be serious, especially during the summer. It’s important to recognize the signs and symptoms early.

Common indicators include:

– Loss of skin elasticity (test by gently pinching the skin)
– Dry gums or nose
– Lethargy
– Excessive panting (especially in dogs) 🐶

If you suspect your pet is dehydrated, offer them fresh, clean water right away. If symptoms persist, contact your veterinary team or emergency hospital as dehydration can lead to serious health issues if left untreated.

Tips to help keep pets hydrated:

🐾 Always have fresh, clean water available
🥣 Add wet food or broths to meals
🚶 Bring portable water bowls for outdoor adventures
🌡️ Keep pets indoors during extreme heat

We’re here to help keep your pets healthy, happy, and hydrated! 🐶🐱

July 🎆 celebrations can be tough on our furry friends, especially with fireworks and loud noises. If your pet gets anxious during thunderstorms or festivities, you’re not alone. 🐾 We’re sharing Fear Free Happy Homes resources to help you understand and manage your pet’s noise sensitivities. 🌩️🎇Whether it’s thunder or fireworks, these vet-approved tips can help keep your pet calm, safe, and comfortable.

Shivering, shaking, clinging, or hiding during fireworks or storms can be signs of a noise phobia which is a common and distressing experience for many pets. 😟🐕 strategies can help manage and prevent this anxiety, making noisy events less overwhelming for your pets.💡💛
