🦃Happy Thanksgiving🦃

As we gather around the table this Thanksgiving, let’s remember to keep our furry family members safe! Here are some tips to ensure a pet-friendly holiday:
🍗 Avoid Table Scraps: Turkey, stuffing, and pies may smell tempting, but rich or fatty foods can cause digestive upset or even dangerous conditions like pancreatitis in pets.
🧄 Watch Out for Toxic Ingredients: Common Thanksgiving foods like onions, garlic, grapes, raisins, and chocolate are harmful to pets. Make sure these stay out of reach!
🍞 Secure the Leftovers: Even a small turkey bone can be a choking hazard, or worse, lead to blockages.
🍽️ Create a Pet-Friendly Plate: If you want to treat your pet, stick to safe options like plain turkey (no skin or seasoning), small bites of sweet potatoes, or cooked carrots.
🚪 Prepare a Quiet Space: If you’re hosting, some pets can get overwhelmed. Create a cozy retreat so they have a calm place to relax.
Let's make this a wonderful Thanksgiving for all members of the family—two-legged and four! 🧡🦃🐾

It’s National Walk Your Dog Week!
October 1st-7th is the perfect time to grab that leash, lace up your shoes and go explore with your furry friend!
Did you know that 56% of dogs in the US are overweight or obese? Regular walks can improve the physical and mental health of your pet and strengthen the bond between you and your pup.

I challenge you to get out and walk your dog at least 20 min a day this week!

It seems that cats are getting the short end of the stick when it comes to veterinary care. Research has shown that cat owners are taking their cats to the vet less often. Research sponsored by the American Veterinary Medical Association determined 83% of dogs see a veterinarian annually while only 64% of cats see a veterinarian annually.

Cats are medically underserved, in part because owners are unaware how sick their cat is. Cats, being the clever creatures that they are, can hide illness until it has reached catastrophic proportions.

Our veterinarians recommend annual examinations for all healthy younger cats and for senior cats (>7 years of age) twice annual examination.

Regular vet checkups are key to keeping your cat happy and healthy!
Call us today to book your appointment- 801-298-2014.
