It’s officially the first day of summer—and it’s coming in hot! 🌡️☀️ Summer heat can be tough on pets, and heat emergencies happen more often than you think. If your pet shows signs of overheating or heatstroke, don’t wait—bring them to VEG. No judgment, just care. 🫶

Know the signs of heatstroke:
☀️ Excessive panting or drooling
☀️ Vomiting or diarrhea
☀️ Lethargy or weakness
☀️ Collapse

If your pet is in distress, VEG is open 24/7 with immediate emergency vet care.

“Making VEG a place where all people feel heard, supported, and valued."

At VEG, our DEI mission isn’t just words on a page—it’s the heart of who we are. It's baked right into our culture. We strive every day to build a space where every voice matters, and every story is honored. If you know VEG, you’ve no doubt felt it: every one of our vet hospitals across the U.S. is a place of belonging. 🫶🏾

We pause to reflect on Juneteenth, and to celebrate the freedom and progress of African Americans. Progress is only possible when we listen, learn, and lift each other up. It reminds us why our DEI mission matters. We couldn’t do what we do at VEG without the true freedom to share your voice within a place where people are heard, supported, and valued for who they are.

🤎Today and every day, we’re committed to that mission.🤎
