🎆🐾 Keep Your Pets Safe This 4th of July! 🐾🎆

While we’re celebrating with fireworks and BBQs, our furry friends may be feeling scared or stressed. Here are some tips to keep your pet safe and calm this Independence Day:

🔹 Exercise early – Get your pet’s energy out before the festivities begin.
🔹 Keep them indoors – Fireworks can frighten pets and cause them to bolt.
🔹 Create a safe space – A quiet, cozy area with familiar items helps them feel secure.
🔹 No BBQ scraps – Many foods can be dangerous or toxic to pets.
🔹 Talk to your vet – Ask about anxiety meds or calming options now, before the big night.
🔹 ID tags & microchips – Make sure your pet’s info is current, just in case they get spooked and run.

Let’s make this a holiday that’s fun and safe for everyone—humans and pets alike! ❤️🐶🐱

🌧️ Dear Washingtonians: Yes, the sun does still exist — and it’s dangerous for dogs in cars! 🐶🔥

We know, we know… Washington isn’t exactly known for its sunshine. But when that big bright orb does show up, your car can heat up faster than the Starbucks line.

Cracking the windows? Not enough. Parking in the shade? Not safe.

Leaving your dog in a hot car, even “just for a minute,” can be deadly. Dogs can suffer heatstroke before you even finish your latte. ☕🐾

💡 So if your pup can’t come inside with you, leave them at home with a fan and a treat. It’s the coolest choice you’ll make all summer. 😎

🐈‍⬛ Cats may have nine lives, but none of those should be spent in the shelter. 😽 June is not only National Adopt a Cat Month, its also National Adopt a Shelter Cat Month. This encourages us to remember our feline friends when considering a new pet. Take your time when deciding what pet is right for you. Us animal lovers know that an animal will touch your heart, so be sure to find a life-long love with your new adoptee!

🩺🐶 Pet Cancer Awareness Month 🐾
Did you know that 1 in 3 dogs will be affected by cancer in their lifetime?

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in pets—but early detection can save lives. That’s why regular wellness exams and cancer screenings are so important, especially as your dog gets older or if they’re a breed at higher risk.

🧬 What is a Cancer Screening?
A cancer screening is a proactive way to look for cancer before symptoms appear. Screenings may include:

✅ Physical exams to check for lumps or abnormal signs

✅ Blood tests to detect organ function changes or cancer markers

✅ Urinalysis to identify issues in the urinary tract or kidneys

✅ Imaging (X-rays, ultrasound) to find internal masses

✅ Biopsy or fine needle aspiration of suspicious growths

These tests can help detect cancer early—when treatment is more likely to succeed and your pet has the best chance at a longer, healthier life.

💛 Be proactive. Stay informed. Love longer.

👉 Schedule a check-up with your vet.
👉 Ask about cancer screenings, especially for senior pets.
👉 Share this to spread awareness and support other pet parents.
