Did you know that 7 out of 10 mosquitoes near a heartworm-positive dog can carry the disease - and pass it to YOUR healthy pup? 🦟❤️

Heartworms aren't just a warm-weather problem. There are 22 different mosquito species in the U.S. that transmit heartworm, active at all different times of day and year - meaning heartworm "season" is year-round. 🗓️

Even one infected dog in your neighborhood can substantially raise the risk for every other dog nearby.

✅ The good news? Prevention is simple, affordable, and effective.
Ask us about year-round heartworm prevention at your next visit — your dog (and their neighbors!) will thank you.

Think heartworms only affects dogs? Think again. 🚨

Here are some alarming facts every cat owner should know:

🐾 Just 1 adult heartworm can kill a cat.
🏠 Both indoor AND outdoor cats are at risk.
⏱️ Cats can start showing respiratory symptoms as soon as 3 months after infection.
💊 There are ZERO approved treatments for heartworm disease in cats — only prevention.
😔 Only 5% of cats are currently on year-round prevention.

The stakes for cats are incredibly high. Since there's no treatment, prevention is the ONLY option.

👉 Talk to our team today about the 4 approved heartworm preventives available for cats. Don't wait — your kitty is counting on you! 🐱💕

Easter is almost here, and while the holiday is full of fun for the family, some of the most common Easter items can actually be dangerous for your pets! 🐾🐣

Here’s a quick reminder of what to keep away from your furry friends this weekend:

🥚 Easter eggs — Plastic pieces can cause intestinal issues, and real eggs can spoil and upset their stomach.

🌿 Easter grass — Looks pretty in a basket, but dogs and cats love to chew it, and ingesting it can be dangerous.

🍫 Chocolate & xylitol — Chocolate contains theobromine, which can cause seizures and elevated heart rate. Xylitol (found in many sweets) is also toxic. Keep that Easter stash out of reach!

🌸 Easter lilies & flowers — Especially dangerous for cats. These flowers can cause vomiting, lethargy, and worse if chewed.

If you think your pet got into something they shouldn’t have, don’t wait. Give us a call!

Wishing you and your pets a happy and safe Easter! 🐇
