While we may enjoy celebrating and popping fireworks, the loud noises can startle our pets. Fourth of July is one of the worst days for our four-legged friends. During this day we find ourselves with many lost pets trying to find their way home. As pet owners let’s do our part in making sure they are kept safe and sound. In the event an emergency presents itself please have some peace of mind knowing we will be open regular hours. For any found pets we will gladly scan and help try to reunite families 🐾♥️🐾
Another successful year in the books! Congratulations Dr. Chavarria! You truly deserve all this success and so much more 🎉🥳. Thank you for being an amazing human 🐾♥️🐾

Don’t leave your pet in a parked car!
Never leave your pet unattended in a parked car for any period of time. Your vehicle can quickly reach a temperature that puts your pet at risk of serious illness and even death, even on a day that doesn’t seem hot to you. ON A WARM DAY, the temperature in a car can exceed 120° in a matter of minutes—even with the windows partially open. Small, short-coated animals are especially susceptible. It is much better to leave a pet at home than to leave him in a car.
💥Please make note that we will be open Independence Day regular hours💥
Dogs can be subject to heatstroke and other related illnesses including dehydration, paw pad burns, and even sunburn. Therefore, it’s important to keep them safe and comfortable during your walks.
Timing is everything when it comes to walking your dog in the high temperatures. Schedule your walks during the cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late evening. These times typically have lower temperatures and a reduced risk of pavement burns.
•Avoid walking your dog between the hours of 9a.m. - 7:00 p.m.•
Just like us humans, dogs need to stay hydrated, especially in hot weather. Always carry a portable water bottle and a collapsible bowl during walks. Offer your dog water and rest breaks every 15–20 minutes. If possible choose shaded paths to protect their paw pads.
Some dog breeds are more prone to heat-related issues than others. Brachycephalic breeds, or dogs with broad, shorter skulls, such as English Bulldogs and Pugs, are especially vulnerable due to their snouts and difficulty to cool down. Additionally, dogs with thick coats or underlying health conditions may also struggle in high temperatures.
Heatstroke is a life-threatening condition that can occur when a dog’s body temperature rises too high too quickly. Symptoms include excessive panting, rapid heartbeat, weakness, vomiting, and collapse. If you suspect heatstroke, move your dog to a cool area, wet their body with cool water, and contact your veterinarian immediately.
As a reminder we will be closed today in observance of Easter. We hope everyone has a wonderful and safe Sunday!
