Please microchip your pets!! Call 570-424-1060 to schedule your appointment!!!

🐾Summer is the busiest time of year for lost pets. With loud fireworks, thunderstorms, and open doors during gatherings, pets can easily slip away and get lost. That’s why July is the perfect time to raise awareness about microchipping!

Here’s why microchipping is so important:
✔️ It's a permanent form of identification
✔️ Vets and shelters can scan the chip and contact you
✔️ Collars and tags can fall off — microchips don’t
✔️ It greatly increases the chance of being reunited if your pet is lost

At The AWSOM Wellness Center, we believe every pet deserves a way back home.
Microchipping is fast, safe, and only $20 for this summer.

Give your pet the best chance of making it home safely. 🐩🐈‍⬛🦮🐈🐕‍🦺
Let’s spread awareness, not lost pet flyers. 💚🧡

Please be cautious while walking or hiking with your dogs!

🚨 3rd Snake Bite This Month – Please Read 🐍🐾

We were notified today that another local dog was bitten by a snake. Thankfully, their pup is recovering—but that makes three confirmed snake bites in our area just this month.

We’re sharing this not to scare anyone, but to help keep your pets safe.

🐾 Rattlesnakes are active in the Poconos this time of year, especially near trails, tall grass, and wooded areas. Please take extra precautions while walking or hiking with your pets.

Signs of a rattlesnake bite in dogs or cats may include:
⚠️ Swelling at the bite site
⚠️ Sudden pain or limping
⚠️ Lethargy, drooling, or trembling
⚠️ Puncture wounds or bruising

💉 Bites are a medical emergency. Immediate treatment is critical. If you suspect your pet has been bitten:
➡️ Stay calm and limit their movement
➡️ Do NOT apply ice or a tourniquet
➡️ Call your vet or go directly to the nearest emergency clinic

The closest known locations that do are:
🔹 Barton Heights
🔹 Pocono Peak Veterinary Center
🔹 Creature Comforts Veterinary Service
🔹 Smithfield Animal Hospital
🔹 Valley Central

We hope you never need this info—but we’d rather you be prepared. Please share with fellow pet parents and help us keep our community safe. 💚🐾
