Those Noses Know! 👃🐾

Did you know your pet’s nose can tell us a lot about their health? Dogs and cats have an incredible sense of smell, and their noses can sometimes give clues about what’s going on inside their bodies, too!

✔️ Wet and cool noses are typically normal.
✔️ A temporarily dry nose can happen after a nap or time spent in the sun.
⚠️ Persistent dryness, cracking, unusual discharge, bleeding, or color changes may be signs that your pet should be evaluated by a veterinarian.

Every pet is unique, and while nose changes don’t always mean something is wrong, it’s always better to be safe when it comes to your furry family members.

📞 If you notice anything unusual about your pet’s nose or overall health, give us a call. We’re here to help keep those sniffers healthy and happy!

🐶🐱 Remember: When in doubt, have it checked out!

🐾 National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day 🐾

Today we’re shining a light on the many pets still waiting in shelters for a place to call home.

So many amazing dogs spend their days behind kennel doors, just hoping for someone to notice them. They’re loving, loyal, and ready to be part of a family—they just need the chance. 🐶

Choosing to adopt doesn’t just give a pet a home, it gives them a whole new life—and you gain a best friend in return. ❤️

If adoption isn’t an option right now, there are still plenty of ways to help:
✨ Volunteer at your local shelter
✨ Donate food, toys, or bedding
✨ Share posts of adoptable pets to help them get seen

Every small action can make a big difference. Let’s help more pets find the loving homes they deserve. 🏡

Adopt, don’t shop. Give a shelter pet their second chance. 🐾

🐾 Dog Bite Prevention Awareness 🐾

At Hooves & Paws, we love our furry friends—but safety always comes first! Dog bites can happen when pets feel scared, stressed, or overwhelmed. The good news? Most bites are preventable with a little awareness.

Here are a few simple tips to keep everyone safe:
• Always ask before petting someone else’s dog
• Avoid disturbing dogs while they’re eating or sleeping
• Watch for warning signs like growling, stiff posture, or raised fur
• Teach children to be gentle and respectful with pets
• Give dogs space when they seem anxious or nervous

🐶 Remember: even the sweetest dogs have boundaries!
