Not all dogs are natural swimmers! Even water-loving breeds can struggle in pools without proper supervision.

Always watch them closely! Provide life vests for nervous swimmers, rinse off chlorine immediately, and never assume they can swim just because they're a "water breed."

Does anyone else have a dog who's cautious about puddles but loves swimming pools?

Think your dog's a natural swimmer?

Surprisingly, many aren't! Even water-loving breeds can struggle with exit points in pools.

And did you know cats can actually swim but their tolerance for water varies by breed?

Maine C***s often enjoy splashing while Siamese typically perform Olympic-level jumps to avoid droplets.

What's your pet's weirdest water behavior?

That obsessive paw-licking might not be what you think. Summer brings a perfect storm of itch triggers—new pollens, bug bites, higher humidity causing yeast, and even sunburn on light-colored pets. If your pet's scratching like they're hiding lottery tickets, it's time for some detective work. Notice patterns? Morning scratching vs. night? After being outside? Stop by and we can help relieve those allergies! https://us.vetstoria.com/booking/667c4f7eb0599/?r=6

Let's talk cat hugs! For some cats, a full embrace means war. For others, it's bliss. Most prefer the "slow blink" love language or a gentle chin scratch. What's your cat's affection style? And how many of you have cats that only want hugs when YOU'RE busy? (We see you, lap-seeking cats who appear during Zoom calls.)

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.
