Cooler weather means longer, more comfortable outdoor adventures!

But senior pets or those with joint issues may need modifications. Consider shorter, more frequent walks on softer surfaces like grass instead of concrete, and warming up before vigorous play.

September taught us about transitions, resilience, and the importance of routine. Our pets showed us how to adapt to change while maintaining the relationships that matter most. As we head into October, let's carry forward the lessons our pets teach us daily: patience during adjustment, joy in simple moments, and unconditional love through every season. What did your pet teach you this month?

As activity levels change with cooler weather, joint health becomes especially important for our pets. If you notice any changes in your pet's mobility or activity levels, it's worth discussing with your veterinarian. They can help you create a personalized plan to support your pet's joint health and comfort. Early conversations with your vet about mobility can help maintain quality of life as pets age. Schedule a mobility assessment if you have concerns!

Today we pause to remember the shelter pets still waiting for homes and honor those who never got a second chance. Every pet deserves love, care, and a family to call their own. While we remember those we've lost, we also celebrate the incredible rescue organizations and volunteers working to save lives every day. ❤️

Responsible dog ownership looks different for every family, but some basics remain the same: providing proper nutrition, regular exercise, veterinary care, training, and lots of love. It means understanding your dog's needs, respecting community spaces, and making decisions based on their wellbeing rather than convenience.

What does responsible ownership mean to you?

Behavior changes can signal health issues before physical symptoms appear. Increased hiding, changes in appetite and thirst, unusual aggression, excessive vocalization, or altered sleep patterns might indicate pain, illness, or stress. Don't dismiss behavior changes as "just getting older" - they often provide early warning signs that allow for prompt treatment.

It's Hug Your Hound Day!

While not every dog loves tight squeezes, most appreciate gentle affection, ear scratches, and quality cuddle time. Some prefer leaning against you, others want full snuggle sessions, and a few just enjoy being near their favorite humans.

Every dog has their own love language — what's your dog's preferred way to show and receive affection?

As outdoor time decreases, indoor comfort becomes crucial!

Ensure your pet has cozy resting spots away from drafts, adequate mental stimulation for longer indoor hours, comfortable bedding that's easy to wash, and appropriate indoor exercise options. Cats especially appreciate vertical spaces and window perches for entertainment.

What's your pet's favorite indoor comfort spot?

September is ideal for fall wellness planning!

Before weather changes and holiday busyness begin, schedule routine care like dental cleanings, pet checkups, and preventative treatments. Fall appointments are often easier to book than winter ones, and catching health issues early means better outcomes and fewer emergency situations later.

Plan ahead for your pet's health!

August flew by with summer's last hurrah!

Share your pet's favorite August memory - maybe it was a beach trip, camping adventure, new trick learned, or simply perfecting the art of afternoon naps.

As we head into fall, let's celebrate all the ways our pets made this month special.

What was your pet's biggest August accomplishment?

Cats are masters at hiding illness, making regular checkups even more important!

Today reminds us that cats need veterinary care just like dogs - they're just better at pretending they don't. Annual exams catch problems early when they're easier to treat. Indoor cats need checkups too!

Schedule your cat’s wellness visit. https://us.vetstoria.com/booking/667c4f7eb0599/?r=6

Compassion is our practice. Wellness is our goal.

What makes Burke Animal Clinic special is that we practice holistic medicine, meaning we combine traditional medicine with alternative therapies for pets. We believe that both are equally important as they work together to help us keep your pet healthy and to treat chronic conditions and provide drug-free alternatives to pain management. Our practice is focused on providing customized care and treatment plans to meet the individual needs of each of our patients.
