✨New Year, New Me!✨

🦜This beautiful bird welcomed 2026 with a freshly trimmed beak.

💅 A bird’s beak is constantly growing, just like nails.

🍎 An overgrown beak can cause discomfort and interfere with daily habits, such as eating.

✂️ If your bird’s beak looks long, uneven, or cracked, it’s time for a visit to Sandalfoot!

📞 Contact us at (561) 488-1400 to schedule an appointment for a wing, nail, and/or beak trim, a wellness exam, or if you have any concerns about your pet’s health.

🔎 Check our website at the link in bio for a full list of services we offer.

📌 We are open Monday-Friday from 8am to 4pm, and Saturdays from 8am-12pm.

❄️Temperatures are dropping in South Florida!❄️

Tomorrow, Thursday, and Friday, we have lows in the 40s! 💨

Temperatures in the 50s and below may be too cold for your pets, especially if they are small, have a thin coat, and are not used to cold weather.

During this cold front, keep in mind the following:
🐶 Dogs: Short haired, senior, small, and brachycephalic breeds (short snout, such as pugs & frenchies), have difficulty regulating their temps. Use sweaters or coats when taking them outside, and keep a close eye to make sure they aren’t too cold.

🐱 Cats: If possible, outdoor cats should be brought inside. Check the perimeter of your car before starting it, as cats may use cars as shelter to stay warm.

🦜 Birds: Keep your pet birds indoors. Avoid drafts from windows, doors, and vents. Birds are very sensitive to the cold, so try to keep the room temperature stable.

❗️Watch for shivering, pale gums, lethargy, and decreased appetite.

📌We are open Monday-Friday from 8am to 4pm, and Saturdays from 8am-12pm.

🍼Puppies and kittens receive antibodies from their mom’s milk. Within just a few weeks, these antibodies begin to decrease. This leaves puppies and kittens vulnerable to viruses and diseases. This time period is when vaccines are especially essential.

🐶🐱Puppy and kitten vaccinations are typically given as a series, which ensures that their immune system is strengthening after maternal immunity has faded.

🦠Vaccines prevent illnesses that are highly contagious, hard to treat, and extremely serious.

🪱 Deworming puppies and kittens is also very important. Parasites are often passed down from their mother and/or their environment. Early and frequent deworming is the key to avoiding long lasting issues from parasites.

📌Do you have questions about your pet’s vaccines or concerns about intestinal parasites? Contact us at (561) 488-1400 to schedule any appointment.

📌We are open Monday-Friday from 8am to 4pm, and Saturdays from 8am to 12pm.
