Your dog’s size and energy output determine how much you should feed them. A pup with normal activity levels should receive “maintenance energy” whereas a lap dog requires just about 10% of that. An active pupper who exercises outdoors regularly would likely need an additional 20-40% than your average dog. Adjusting portion sizes is normal as you learn your dog’s ideal maintenance amount. Keep in mind that the weather can play a role in how much your dog should eat. Be sure to consult with us to develop a feeding schedule that is best for your furry family members!

We all want our homes to smell nice and clean; however, as pet owners, we have to be extra careful that whatever we are using isn’t harmful to our fur babies. Incense is dangerous to cats as their sense of smell is 14 times stronger than that of humans and the smell can be too intense for them to handle. It also produces smoke, which can be bad for their respiratory system and increase the risk of your cat developing asthma. Opt for cat-friendly methods of keeping your house smelling fresh and clean by dusting frequently, using baking soda to absorb odors, having fragrant plants such as rosemary or sage, or simmering a pot of water with cinnamon sticks, apples, or vanilla. Stay current with your cats' healthcare needs and schedule their appointment by calling (480) 759-9721.

To prevent your pup from contracting parvo, it is essential to get them vaccinated. A puppy’s first set of vaccinations happen at 6 weeks old with another two at 9 and 12 weeks. When your dog is brought into our clinic, they will be assessed by us and we will advise you on all follow-up dates. Always look for clinical signs of parvo in your dog, and if you notice symptoms, contact us at (480) 759-9721 to book an appointment for diagnosis. Don’t leave it until its too late!

Diabetes is a disease caused by a lack of insulin, the hormone that regulates how sugar is absorbed and used by the cells within the body. It is most often seen in dogs between the ages of 5 and 7, with female dogs being more susceptible than males. Every dog is unique, but keeping an eye out for irregularities in your dog’s behavior is key to determining if your dog may be at risk. Watch out for extreme thirst, frequent urination, notable exhaustion, and lower than normal activity, and obesity. If you have noticed any of these signs in your pup, call us at (480) 759-9721 right away to schedule a thorough examination so we can help you maintain and improve your dog’s health!

BIG NEWS!!! We have a new Doctor joining our team starting August 1st 2026!

Dr. Lauren Gaines is thrilled to begin her veterinary career with the Foothills team and serve the people and pets of the community she calls home. After completing her undergraduate studies at Arizona State and earning her veterinary degree at Colorado State in 2026, she returned to her Arizona roots, devoted to a lifelong passion of caring for all creatures with a strong commitment to patient advocacy, client education, and access to care.
While Dr. Gaines values the breadth of care involved in general practice, her special interests include preventive medicine, geriatric care, surgery, dentistry, ophthalmology, and shelter medicine. Dr. Gaines especially values the relationships she builds with her patients and their families and considers it a privilege to support them through every stage of life.
When she is not in the clinic, Dr. Gaines loves to unwind with her four legged baby, Fenn. She is equally passionate about the little things in life, enjoying the open water, especially as an avid swimmer and diver, finding adventure in new places, and sharing her time with friends and family.
