Fun animal fact for your Friday!

A reindeer’s eyes turn blue in winter! Scientists discovered the collagen fibres in their reflective layer pack together more tightly and start to reflect blue wavelengths of light instead of yellow, to help them capture more light during the dark winter months.

Did you know that preventative bloodwork can screen and monitor your pet for organ health, electrolyte balance, endocrine health, blood sugar levels, and more? The benefit of preventative versus reactionary bloodwork is that it can pick up on certain illnesses and disease before your pet becomes symptomatic. This could save you an expensive vet visit down the line!
