Crawling is such a great exercise for your pets!

Here are some reasons as to why we prescribe this one so often:
- helps your cat or dog actively extend every part of their spine when they have to crawl through
- strengthens their quads/hips when they have to pull their back leg up to help push
- strengthens their glutes & hamstrings when they have to push off their back legs
- strengthens their shoulders and triceps when they need to use their front limbs to pull themselves through

4th of July weekend is right around the corner and there’s no time to waste!

This is one of the most terrifying & dangerous holidays for our pets. Fireworks, bonfires, potentially poisonous foods on the potluck table.. all of these could set your pet off, lead to your pet getting sick, or worst of all, causing your pet to run away from being scared. Please share these tips with all of your pet parent friends! Our pets deserve to feel safe 🧑

We're thrilled to share some very exciting news πŸŽ‰

Please join us in giving Athena a warm welcome πŸ₯°
Starting today, Athena will be taking over most administrative, scheduling, & client-facing roles. In order to get to know her a bit better, we've put together a little Q&A ⬇️

Athena is a country mom who works from home as a DVM running her own online veterinary consultation for farm services in addition to now being part of team Amicus! She graduated from veterinary school in 2011 & has since gained experience in many veterinary specialty areas (research, small animal practice, food animal practice, pet insurance, technical sales)

I grew up in a small town and pets/farm animals were a part of daily life. My grandmother had about 10 cats growing up and we also raised pigs, chickens, and ducks in the backyard. We also had a childhood dog named Bully! I knew that I had a calling to not only in help animals who cannot help themselves but also to play a vital role in food security.

Yes! We have Katherine (cat), Brownie (dog), and Christian and Simba (rabbits). In the backyard, we have Abraham, Dishie, Margie, and Georgie (goats). My son also picked two hens from the flock and named them Dippy (the girl), and Chikie.

We are so incredibly grateful to have Athena on our team!

πŸ’‘Did You KnowπŸ’‘

That our pets can also develop stiffness, especially in their spine?

This could be due to a multitude of reasons, some of which include: arthritis, muscle tightness, and/or
age-related degeneration of their spine (disc, cartilage, etc.)

Because of this, they will start to show decrease in their normal range of motion especially with turning to either side or looking up/down. As you can imagine, this can significantly impact their safety as well as overall mobility and functioning.

Our sweet Mr.Ross here is demonstrating cookie stretches to help with neck extension as well as spinal side bending and spinal rotation πŸͺ
