Hot Pavement Alert! Protect Your Pet's Paws! 🐾🔥

Did you know asphalt and concrete can get dangerously hot for your pet's paws, even on moderately warm days? While it might feel fine to your shoes, your pet's paw pads can burn in seconds!

Here’s a simple test: Place the back of your hand on the pavement for 7 seconds. If it’s too hot for your hand, it's definitely too hot for their paws!

A little awareness goes a long way in preventing painful burns. Let's keep those paws happy and healthy all summer long!

🐾 How Pet Vaccines Build Immunity! 🐾

Vaccines are like a "training session" for your pet's immune system! They safely introduce tiny bits of disease, teaching your pet's body to recognize and fight off real threats later.

This "memory" means strong, ready-to-go protection against serious illnesses. Boosters keep that shield strong!

Protect your pet's health with smart vaccination.
