With the wetter weather coming through, Leptospirosis will be on the rise. Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection that can affect dogs, humans, and other animals. It can cause Kidney and Liver damage if not treated urgently. It is transmitted through contact with urine of infected animals. Avoid letting your dog swim or drink from contaminated water sources and away from the urine of other animals. Fun note, the most common transmitter of leptospirosis are ground rodents like mice, rats and Florida voles!

National Puppy Day!
Did you know that the first National Puppy Day was observed on March 23, 2006!? Today we get to celebrate all those puppies out there and the ones that are still looking for their furever home! This day was created to raise awareness about the importance of adopting puppies and celebrate their joy in our lives. Colleen Paige created this holiday in response to the growing number of puppies being abandoned, surrendered to shelters, and sold in pet stores. She believed that dedicating a day to celebrating all puppies and promoting adoption would encourage people to adopt puppies from shelters and rescue organizations instead of buying them from breeders or pet stores. So what are you waiting for? Go to your local shelter or rescue organization and finalize this special day by giving a puppy their furever home!
