Early detection can make a huge difference in treatment and recovery. Have you noticed this behavior shift in your dog? Call us at 734-954-9252.

Did you know hot pavement can burn your dog’s paw pads within seconds? During summertime walks, always do the 7-second test: if you can’t keep the back of your hand on the pavement for 7 seconds, it’s too hot for paws! Opt for early mornings, late evenings, grassy paths, or dog booties to keep your pup safe in the heat. Protect those pawprints on every adventure! Need more safety tips? Give us a call.

Did you know that cats perceive the world in a way that's somewhat similar to someone who is colorblind? While they excel at spotting greens and blues, shades of pinks and reds often remain elusive to their keen senses. This unique perspective on color highlights just how different their vision is compared to ours. It’s fascinating to think about how our furry friends experience their surroundings, navigating a vibrant world filled with hidden hues that we often take for granted!

Jabba (and his tongue 😛 )was a happy customer for his wellness visit today. We updated his lifestyle vaccines and pulled blood for his first preventive care panel. This gives us a glimpse of his organ function, electrolyte values and blood cell counts. We use this to detect early, hidden disease, even in young dogs. We can then make the best recommendations for his healthcare as he ages into his middle-aged and elder years. Great job Jabba boy! 🥰
