🐾 **Happy National Dog Day!** 🐾

Today is all about celebrating the dogs who make our lives better simply by being in them. ❤️

The goofy ones. The snuggly ones. The ones who somehow take up the entire bed. The treat negotiators, professional ball chasers, expert squirrel patrol officers, and the pups who know exactly when we need a little extra love. 🐶

At **Family Pet Hospital of Shawnee**, we're lucky to spend our days caring for so many incredible dogs—and we think National Dog Day is the perfect excuse to fill our Facebook feed with them!

📸 **Show us your dog!**
Drop your favorite photo in the comments and tell us their **name** and one thing that makes them completely, wonderfully *them*. Bonus points for goofy pictures. 😄

Give your pup an extra belly rub, walk, cuddle, or treat from all of us today. 🐾💕

**Happy National Dog Day!**

"Summer adventures are fun—but Kansas heat can quickly become dangerous for our four-legged friends.

Before heading out for a walk or hike, remember:
🌡️ If it's too hot for your hand, it's too hot for their paws! Hot pavement can cause painful burns in just seconds.
💧 Bring plenty of fresh water and take frequent breaks.
🌳 Walk during the cooler morning or evening hours whenever possible.
🚗 Never leave your pet in a parked vehicle, even for a few minutes.
🐶 Watch for signs of heat exhaustion, including excessive panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, or collapse.

When temperatures soar, the safest place for your pet may be indoors with the air conditioning. They'll thank you for a cool nap instead of a hot walk!

If you think your pet may be suffering from heatstroke, don't wait—seek veterinary care immediately. Heatstroke is a life-threatening emergency.

Have questions about keeping your pet safe this summer? The team at Family Pet Hospital of Shawnee is always here to help!

❤️ Stay cool and have a safe summer!

"Summer is the perfect time to enjoy walks, hikes, and backyard adventures with your pets—but it's also prime season for bees, wasps, mosquitoes, ticks, spiders, and other biting insects.

Here are a few simple ways to help protect your furry family members:
🐾 Keep pets away from flowering plants, standing water, and insect nests.
🐾 Use veterinarian-recommended flea, tick, and heartworm prevention year-round.
🐾 Check your pet for ticks after spending time outdoors.
🐾 Watch for signs of a sting or bite, including swelling, redness, limping, excessive licking, or trouble breathing.

While many insect stings and bites are minor, some can cause allergic reactions or transmit serious diseases. If your pet develops significant swelling, facial swelling, vomiting, difficulty breathing, or seems unusually lethargic after an insect bite or sting, contact us right away.

Our team at Family Pet Hospital of Shawnee is here to help keep your pets safe all summer long. If you have questions about parasite prevention or think your pet has been stung or bitten, give us a call—we're happy to help!

❤️ Stay safe, enjoy the sunshine, and give your furry friends an extra scratch from all of us at Family Pet Hospital of Shawnee!

Fireworks may be fun for us, but they can be frightening for our pets. If your dog or cat has a history of anxiety during fireworks, **don't wait until the last minute** to get their medication.

💊 If your pet needs anti-anxiety medication, please contact us **before the holiday** so we can determine the best option and have it ready for pickup.

📅 **Holiday Hours Reminder:**

Some additional tips to help keep your pet calm:
🐾 Keep them indoors in a quiet, secure room.
🎵 Play calming music or white noise to help mask fireworks.
🏷️ Make sure their ID tags and microchip information are up to date.
❤️ Stay with them if possible and offer plenty of comfort.

We hope you and your furry family members have a safe and happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸🐶🐱
