Some vaccine-preventable diseases can spread before a pet ever shows signs of illness.

That is why vaccines are designed to protect pets before exposure happens, not after.

Keeping your pet current on recommended vaccines helps protect them from serious diseases and helps reduce the spread of illness within communities and between housemates.

This National Immunization Awareness Month, we're highlighting the power of prevention. A simple vaccine appointment today can help support your pet's health for years to come.

Not sure if your pet is due? Our team is happy to review their records and answer any questions.

🐾 Prevention starts before symptoms appear.

July temperatures can be brutal for our furry friends. Dehydration isn't just uncomfortable; it can be dangerous.

Here's what to watch for:

✓ Fresh water available at all times (refill bowls twice daily in hot weather)

✓ Know the signs: excessive panting, lethargy, dry gums

✓ Limit outdoor activity during peak heat (10 AM - 4 PM)

✓ Never leave pets in parked cars—even with windows cracked

Pro tip: Offer water before, during, and after playtime. Consider a fountain for pets who love running water!

When in doubt about heat-related illness, call us immediately.

Does your cat do this? 😂🐱

The post-poop zoomies are actually caused by the vagus nerve, which runs near the colon and triggers a sudden rush of energy.

So your cat is not crazy... or maybe they are a little. 😉

🕯️ Curious pets and open flames are a dangerous combination!

Opt for flameless candles and enclosed fireplace screens to reduce the risk of accidental home fires. If you do use traditional candles, never leave them unattended around your pets. Small precautions can make a big difference in keeping your whole family safe.
