Happy National Walk Your Dog Week! Over the next 7 days, I'm going to share some useful tips to keep in mind when walking your dog. That way you can both have a rewarding, safe, and enjoyable experience every time!

🐶 Day 1: Kickoff – Celebrate the Bond
Every paw-step is a moment of connection. 🐾 This National Walk Your Dog Week, celebrate the simple joy of walking with your best friend. Whether it’s around the block or through the park, your dog loves every step by your side.
💡 Tip: Make sure your pup’s collar and leash are well-fitted before heading out—it’s a small step that makes a big difference.

Today is World Rabies Day!

Did you know that all mammals are susceptible to rabies, including your dogs and cats? This is why it is required by law for all domesticated pets above the age of 4 months to be vaccinated against it. It is 100% preventable, and depending on the life stage of your pet, we offer 1 year or 3 years vaccines. Give us a call at 773-267-1111 to make sure that your pet has their up-to-date rabies shot, or schedule your next visit with us to get them vaccinated. 🩹 🩺

Who doesn't love a good hashtag - or just a good reason to post cute kitties, am I right?

Happy !!!

Starting off strong with Mr. Binx, the perfect name for the sweetest black cat!

Black cats typically have a hard time getting out of shelters due to superstition, but tend to be some of the sweetest cats out there. 😻

Connect with one of our rescue partners if you have any questions about adopting, we are so proud to work alongside them and deliver the best possible care to all the deserving kitties out there!
