Bring the p**p (we're serious).… 👀💩

Even healthy-looking pets can have hidden parasites like roundworms, hookworms, and giardia. Left untreated, parasites can cause diarrhea, weight loss, and even be passed to people. That’s why we recommend f***l testing as part of routine care!

Book your pet’s visit and bring a fresh stool sample. Contact us today!

As a reminder, summer heat can be dangerous for pets, especially dogs with short snouts like Bulldogs, Pugs, and Frenchies.

Watch for signs of overheating like excessive panting or drooling, bright red gums, wobbling, or vomiting. If you notice these signs, get your pet to a cool area, offer water, and call us immediately.
