Are your pets starting to slow down with the cooler weather?🥶 Are they having a harder time getting up and moving around? 🫤Not wanting to play like they used to? 😿 If you answered yes to any (or all) of these questions than it is possible that your pet is showing signs of an arthritis flare up due to weather changing.

Like us people, when the outside weather changes and starts to cool down the aches and pains that are hidden away tend to show back up again. That is why it is important as a responsible pet owner to stay on top of your pet’s pain and give them a good quality of life. 💙

If you’re unsure if your pet is showing signs of arthritis, please reach out to us so we can assist you. Remember, up to 8️⃣0️⃣% of pets over the age of 8 years old exhibit arthritis in some shape or form.

❄Happy 1st day of December folks! ❄

We cannot believe that it is officially the start of the month and that there are only 3️⃣0️⃣ more days left to go until the start of the new year. Time truly just flies by…

Please keep giving your pets their monthly preventatives for fleas, ticks, and heartworms. We know that it seems like they may not need it at this time of year, but that is unfortunately not the case. We have seen a few cases of fleas over the last few weeks just going to show that they are out there, and they are finding our pets. 😣

If you ever have questions on what preventatives would be best for your pets, please let us know! There are numerous different options whether they are topical or oral. We can find one that's a right fit for your pet. 👀

We hope you have a wonderful week. 💙

*Don’t forget*🦃

Tomorrow is the last day to pick up any food, medications, or supplements that your pets may need for the long weekend. We will be closed November 27th through November 30th to be with our families and furry friends. Also, if your pet is feeling unwell, please get them in now instead of waiting out the long weekend! It is always better to ‘safe-than-sorry’. 💛

Got any questions or concerns? Please let us know and we will gladly try to help! 🥰

As you are hustling and bustling in the kitchen preparing for the big thanksgiving feast happening in a few days, it is important to remember that some foods can be shared with your pets while others cannot⚠.

Food toxicity around the holidays is a big concern for our four-legged friends. That is why it is important for you (and your guests) to know what foods are safe and not. 🍎

Wintertime is vastly approaching us, and that is why it is important to get your pet prepared for the cooler temperatures. Here are a few things to keep in mind when making sure your pet is ready for winter:🥶

1️⃣Make sure your pet has appropriate shelter if staying outside for extended periods of time. You want them to be able to have access to get out of the elements and stay warm and dry. There are multiple different types of dog houses you can try, just find the one that is most suitable for your pet.
2️⃣Keep their food and water full at all times and prevent it from freezing. Even though the weather may be cooler, your pets still need access to drinkable water. Keep them out of the elements and monitor how full they are.
3️⃣Whether your pet is long haired or short haired, make sure your pet is able to stay warm. Some pets have the appropriate hair coat to keep them warm, while others may need a nice warm sweater or jacket even when just going outside to the bathroom.

We hope you all have a great relaxing weekend!❤
