Let's play a game and test your knowledge-- Can you identify which intestinal parasite is which?
A. Tapeworm 🪱 (commonly associated with flea infestations)
B. Hookworm 🪱 (affect dogs more than cats, smaller than roundworms)
C. Roundworm 🪱 (most common intestinal parasite identified in dogs and cats)
D. Whipworm 🪱 (more difficult to detect)
👇 Match up the letters to their corresponding picture and put your answer in the comments👇
Is your pet currently on any type of preventative? 👀
THESE THREE TIPS will help you accustom your pet to visiting the vet:
1. PRACTICE HANDLING YOUR PET - Two of the biggest spots to focus on are your pet's face and ears! Pair gentle handling with tasty treats and high-value rewards for positive association.
2. CARRIERS ARE FRIENDS, NOT FOE - Most cats only see the carrier when it's time to go to the vet. This negative association can lead to some serious struggles when you try to get them inside. To enforce positive association, leave the carrier out as often as possible with the door open. Routinely through high-value toys in the carrier and let your cat or dog discover the goodies inside. Also, consider lining the carrier with a soft blanket to make it extra comfortable.
3. COME HUNGRY - A hungry pet will be much more treat-motivated allowing the veterinary team to provide their favorite treat as a distraction.
What do you (or your pet) struggle with *the most* during veterinary appointments? We want to help!

🤐 We can't believe we're sharing this secret with you but this is a trick you have to try! You never have to argue about where to go out to eat, again! 😆
What's your go-to resolution when you can't decide where to go to eat? Roll dice? Pick a number?
Please try this trick at home with your pet and let us know how it works for you!
It's so tempting to share our food with our pets! I mean, those eyes staring deep into your soul. That fluff! Their voices as they politely beg for a tiny morsel...so. cute.
But we urge you to think about over-sharing your snack or meal! Human food can be seriously dangerous to our furry friends.
Here is a quick list of some food items that are especially dangerous:
🚫 Chocolate & Caffeine
🚫 Grapes & Raisins
🚫 Onions & Garlic
🚫 Avocados
🚫 Macadamia Nuts
🚫 Xylitol (artificial sweetener)
🚫 Bread Dough
🚫 Raw or Undercooked Meat, Eggs, & Bones
From the swiffer to the toe beans and booper, we've outlined the basic anatomy of a Good Boy!
Did we miss anything? Would you have labeled any of these differently?
