Heat Hurts! While hotter temperatures can cause internal injuries and illness, they can also cause external damage.

Try to limit your pet's contact with pavement, opt for shady grass areas when outdoors, and in extreme temperatures, be sure to limit outdoor time.

Other tips for hot days include ensuring your pets have access to plenty of fresh, clean water, keeping them in an air-conditioned or well-ventilated area, and consulting with your veterinarian immediately should you have any concerns about your pet's safety or wellness.

As always, chat with your veterinarian if you're concerned about increased anxiety in your pets.

It's foxtail season! This common grass can cause a slew of issues for humans and animals, though dogs seem to be their primary victims. Foxtails have barb-like heads that will burrow into your pet. They can be swallowed, inhaled, and even pe*****te the skin. Not only is this uncomfortable, but it can cause life-threatening abscesses and infections.

If you’ve been out and about, it’s always a good idea to check your pet for any injuries – and, as always, call your veterinarian with any questions or concerns.
