Summer is definitely in full swing. When taking your pet for a stroll, you can protect their paw pads by:

☀️ Walking them in the early morning or evening
☀️ Walking them on the grass or in shaded areas
☀️ Having them wear protective booties

🌞What a beautiful summer day! It's important to be mindful of your pet's temperature during the hotter months, as heatstroke can be fatal. Consider walking your pet in the early morning or during the evening, and make sure water is available if they are outside for extended periods of time. If it's too hot for you, it's certainly too hot for them. Be safe, everyone! 🐕🐈

A quick PSA for pet owners 🚨

We know ordering pet medications online has become incredibly common, but not every online pharmacy is as trustworthy as it may seem. Recently, there have been reports of fraudulent pharmacies selling medications that were not actually what they claimed to be, which can be extremely dangerous for pets.

If you're ordering medications online for your pet, it's always worth taking extra time to double check the source:
✅ Make sure the pharmacy requires a valid prescription
✅ Be cautious of websites or social ads offering "easy" access to prescription medications
✅ Stick with reputable veterinary pharmacies whenever possible
✅ If something feels off, ask your veterinarian before purchasing

Giving the wrong medication, incorrect dosage, or counterfeit products can have serious consequences for your pet's health. When in doubt, always check with your veterinary team first. ❤️
