🦠 Today is National Parvovirus Awareness Day 🐾

Parvovirus is a highly contagious and potentially deadly disease that affects dogs—especially puppies. It's preventable through vaccination, but if infection does occur, early treatment is critical.

💉 We're proud to offer Canine Parvovirus Monoclonal Antibody (CPMA) therapy as part of our treatment protocol. This cutting-edge option targets the virus directly and helps give infected dogs a fighting chance at recovery.

🛑 Know the signs:

Vomiting

Diarrhea (often bloody)

Lethargy

Loss of appetite

Fever

If you suspect your dog may have been exposed or is showing symptoms, don’t wait—contact us immediately. Early intervention can save lives.

Let’s spread awareness, not the virus. ❤️🐶

🐰🌸 Happy Easter to all our pawsome pet parents! 🌸🐰

As you're filling baskets with goodies and enjoying sweet treats this weekend, don’t forget: some of those human favorites can be dangerous for our furry friends! 🍫🐾

Chocolate (especially dark and baking chocolate) and xylitol (a sweetener found in sugar-free gum, candy, and even some peanut butters) are highly toxic to dogs—even in small amounts. Ingesting them can lead to serious health issues like vomiting, seizures, or worse.

To keep tails wagging and noses booping: 🐶 Keep candy baskets and baked goods safely out of reach
🐶 Remind guests and kids not to share with the dog (even if those puppy eyes are persuasive!)
🐶 Use pet-safe treats if your pup wants to join the fun

Let’s make this a joyful and safe holiday for everyone—two-legged and four-legged alike! 💕🐾

Wishing you all a hoppy, healthy Easter! 🐣🌷

🐾 It’s National Dog Bite Prevention Week 🐾

Any dog can bite!

Most dog bites are preventable with education, awareness, and compassion. Understanding canine body language and boundaries is key to keeping our communities safe.

Let’s work together to reduce incidents and promote responsible pet interactions. A safer world for dogs and people starts with knowledge!

🌸🐱 Lilies + Cats = A Dangerous Mix! 🐾🚫
They may look pretty in your Easter bouquet, but lilies are seriously toxic to cats—even just a lick can be life-threatening. Keep your curious kitties safe and skip the lilies this spring! 🌼💀
