Walter stopped by to enjoy a pup cup from our friends at Sherfield’s Coffee Company, and we think it's safe to say he was a BIG fan (and so are we). 😋❤️

If you haven't checked them out yet, you're missing out on delicious coffee for the humans and tasty pup cups for your four-legged sidekicks. It's the perfect excuse to treat yourself and your best friend!

Support local, sip local, and don't forget to grab your pup a little something special too. 🩵🐾

August heat is no joke.

This is often the hottest stretch of the year, and pets can overheat fast. Keep it simple:

- Fresh water and shade, always.
- Walk early morning or evening.
- Watch flat-faced breeds and seniors closely.
- Never leave pets in a parked car.

Signs of heatstroke include heavy panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting. Call us right away if you see them. This is an emergency!

Late summer is peak allergy season for many pets.

Grass, pollen, mold, and fleas can all trigger miserable symptoms:

- Constant scratching or licking.
- Red, irritated skin.
- Hot spots.
- Recurring ear infections.

Itching is not something your pet just has to live with. We can help provide relief.

Call us at (919) 375-4180 to schedule an appointment!

Senior pets deserve a little extra attention.

As pets age, their needs change. More frequent checkups and early disease detection bloodwork help us catch issues early and keep them comfortable.

Common senior pet concerns:
• Joint pain and mobility issues
• Vision and hearing changes
• A decline in kidney and liver function
• Weight management

Let's keep your senior feeling young.

Contact us today to get your pet in for a visit. https://eastwakeanimalhospital.com

A microchip is only as good as the information attached to it.

If you've moved, changed your phone number, or adopted a pet with an existing chip, now is the time to update your contact info.

Not sure if your pet is microchipped? We can check at your next visit.

If your pet has been scratching, licking, or chewing more than usual, let's take a look.
