Forget everything you've heard about removing ticks with petroleum jelly, burning, or twisting — those old tales can make things worse!

Here's what actually works: fine-tipped tweezers, grabbing as close to the skin as possible, and pulling straight up with steady pressure. No twisting!

Bring us any embedded ticks you're uncomfortable removing. What's your tick horror story?

Think your dog's a natural swimmer?

Surprisingly, many aren't! Even water-loving breeds can struggle with exit points in pools.

And did you know cats can actually swim but their tolerance for water varies by breed?

Maine C***s often enjoy splashing while Siamese typically perform Olympic-level jumps to avoid droplets.

What's your pet's weirdest water behavior?

Happy Father's Day to all the pet dads who've mastered the art of one-handed coffee drinking while holding a leash!

Share your best (worst) pet-related dad joke in the comments!

That obsessive paw-licking might not be what you think. Summer brings a perfect storm of itch triggers—new pollens, bug bites, higher humidity causing yeast, and even sunburn on light-colored pets. If your pet's scratching like they're hiding lottery tickets, it's time for some detective work. Notice patterns? Morning scratching vs. night? After being outside? Stop by and we can help relieve those allergies! https://us.vetstoria.com/booking/667dab590655c/?r=6

Let's talk cat hugs! For some cats, a full embrace means war. For others, it's bliss. Most prefer the "slow blink" love language or a gentle chin scratch. What's your cat's affection style? And how many of you have cats that only want hugs when YOU'RE busy? (We see you, lap-seeking cats who appear during Zoom calls.)
