🐶🧠 Fun Fact Friday

Dogs don’t just recognize words — they can distinguish intent.

Brain imaging studies show dogs process what you say and how you say it in different areas of the brain, similar to humans.

So yes… your dog knows when you’re lying about “just one more minute.” 😅

🌸🐾 Spring into Preventive Care 🐾🌸
May is the perfect time to make sure your pet is protected for the warmer months ahead.

As temperatures rise, so do the risks of fleas, ticks, and heartworm—all of which can cause serious health issues if left unchecked. Staying up to date on preventive care now helps your pet enjoy a safer, itch-free summer.

If you have questions about parasite prevention or it’s time to schedule an exam, the team at Healthy Pets of Houk Road is here to help keep your pet healthy all season long.

📞 Call (740) 362-6414 to book an appointment today!

🐾 Fun Fact Friday!🐾

Dogs actually have a special muscle above their eyes that helps them make those irresistible “puppy dog eyes.” 🥹
Wolves don’t have it—it developed as dogs evolved alongside humans.

And yes… it’s working. Every time.💙

🐱 A handsome visit from Mylo 💙

Mylo recently came in for his COHAT (Comprehensive Oral Health Assessment and Treatment) and recovered wonderfully. We’re so happy to see him doing well after his procedure! 🦷

🦷 A great example of why dental X-rays matter 💙

In this case, we also included a normal comparison image showing the typical two-rooted tooth alongside a normal single-root tooth in a cat’s mouth.

Dental X-rays are incredibly important because extra tooth roots cannot be seen during a visual exam—they are hidden beneath the gum line. Without taking an X-ray, extracting a tooth can become more complicated and may lead to serious challenges, including leaving an extra root behind or risking fracture, which could cause pain or future infection.

This is why full-mouth X-rays are a standard part of every COHAT (Comprehensive Oral Health Assessment and Treatment) we perform. 🐾

The extra tooth in this case is known as a supernumerary tooth, which is relatively rare in cats. 😊

🐾❤️ Today Is National Rescue Dog Day ❤️🐾

Today, we’re celebrating the incredible impact of rescue dogs and the second chances they deserve. National Rescue Dog Day shines a light on the millions of dogs in shelters waiting for loving furever homes — and the unconditional love they bring once they find them.

Even small actions can have a big impact on the lives of rescue dogs:
🐶 Consider adopting a dog from a local shelter
🦴 Donate supplies like food, toys, blankets, or funds
🐕 Volunteer your time to walk, care for, or socialize shelter dogs
📣 Share your rescue story and help spread the word

At Healthy Pets of Houk Road, we’re proud to support rescue pets and the families who open their hearts to them. Thank you for helping give these amazing dogs the lives they deserve. 💙

📸 A sweet throwback for a special moment 💛

This is Isaac, a male kitten who was one of our previous Good Samaritan kittens and was adopted into a wonderful family earlier this year (February 2026). 🐱✨

We’re so excited to celebrate a new milestone—our current five Good Samaritan kittens have all found loving new homes this week! 🎉 We’re sure each of them will be just as loved and cherished as Isaac is.
