“Did you know that a single tick bite can leave a lasting mark on your pet’s health? 🐾 Don’t let hidden dangers go unnoticed!”
“A tick bite may be small, but the risks it brings—tick borne diseases like Lyme disease and anaplasma—can be big. Even if your pet seems fine, these diseases can remain silent for weeks. That’s why we recommend a follow-up blood test 5-6 weeks after any tick bite to catch and treat issues early. 💉🐶🐱
Protect your furry friend’s future! Schedule their blood test today to ensure they stay happy, healthy, and tick-free. 🌟”

🐾♥️Happy Tuesday, Happy Gus ♥️🐾
♥️🐾Happy Labor Day🐾♥️
During Labor Day weekend (and many other holidays,) the most common cause of complication after eating something they shouldn’t. There are a number of foods that should NEVER be given to your pet, such as:
▪ Corn on the Cob
If your dog eats a corncob, he/she probably didn’t chew it into nice, small pieces. This means the cob is one large chunk that will need to be surgically removed from the intestines. Seek immediate veterinary care if your pet eats a corncob.
▪ Bones
Whether chicken, beef, or pork, bones should be avoided as they can cause an obstruction or puncture your pet’s intestines. Round bones might also get stuck around your pet’s lower jaw.
▪ Toxic Foods
NEVER give your pet chocolate, grapes, raisins, products containing xylitol, onions, garlic, macadamia nuts, and alcohol.
▪ Salty/Fatty or Seasoned Foods
Do not let your pet eat foods that are high in salt or fat. They may seem harmless, but these foods could cause an upset stomach or pancreatitis. Chips and other junk food can be a problem, as well as foods that may seem healthy like cooked chicken breast, seasoned carrots, or mashed potatoes. If your pet starts to vomit, have diarrhea, becomes lethargic or stops eating, please seek veterinary care as soon as possible.

🐾♥️Let’s check your cat for signs of arthritis pain
Cats usually love to jump, climb and pounce. But maybe you’ve noticed that your cat has become less adventurous. If your cat is spending more time resting or sleeping, or if they’re playing less than they used to, it’s not necessarily because they’re getting older. This change in behaviour may be a sign that you need to take them to the vet.
🐾♥️Take the assessment to check your cat for signs of arthritis and to detect changes in their behaviours, as these could be signs of arthritis pain.♥️🐾
