Today is National Parvo Awareness Day, marking the beginning of the parvo season, which runs from early spring to mid-summer. Parvo is one of the most contagious and deadly viruses for dogs and puppies, and it is directly linked to dog p**p. Just one sniff or lick can lead to the potentially fatal canine parvovirus (parvo). Prevention is easy when pets are appropriately vaccinated and proper disinfectant protocols are followed. For more information about Parvovirus and what you can do to protect your pups, visit https://www.avma.org/resources-tools/pet-owners/petcare/canine-parvovirus

"Every Day is Tag Day" - The first Saturday in April is used to recognize the importance of pet identification. We have been using Home Again for our microchips for decades because of their reliability and GREAT customer service! Home Again, like most other microchips, is used to identify found pets (it isn't a tracking device!). ID tags on collars are great as well, but they risk being broken or damaged if your pet goes missing. Microchips can be scanned at most animal shelters and veterinary hospitals. Once that microchip is scanned, your pet's unique identification number can be given to Home Again, who will then contact you to reunite you with your furbaby. We register all of our microchips when they are implanted, but it is up to the owners to update their contact information with Home Again if it ever changes. If you have more questions about Home Again microchips, or if you have a pet that needs a microchip, please give us a call. We would be happy to help!
