As summer is in full-swing, we are all excited to enjoy some outdoor fun with our pets. However, these higher temperatures mean increased heat and burn risks for pets.
Surfaces like asphalt retain heat extremely well and can burn paw pads. Always check the asphalt with your bare hand or foot before allowing your pet to walk on it. If it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for them!

Below are a few safety tips to keep your pet cool and healthy this summer ☀️🕶

Osteoarthritis is a common and painful condition affecting millions of dogs and cats, causing joint stiffness, pain, and a reduced quality of life. Watching your pet suffer through the discomfort of arthritis can be heart-wrenching. Fortunately, research in this condition has led to two revolutionary treatments that are changing the game for pets with arthritis: Solensia for cats and Librela for dogs.

Solensia and Librela, are the first and only FDA-approved treatments that work by using a monoclonal antibody to target and neutralize nerve growth factor, a key player in the pain pathway of arthritis.
The benefits of Solensia and Libreal for your arthritic pet include:
1. Targeted Pain Relief: By focusing on nerve growth factor, they provide direct relief from the pain associated with arthritis. It may even allow us to reduce the use of other medications commonly used to manage arthritis.
2. Improved Mobility: With pain under control, pets can move more freely and enjoy a more active lifestyle.
3. Long Lasting and Ease of Use: Both Librela and Solensia are designed to provide a full month of pain relief from a single injection. It’s convenient and stress-free for both you and your pet!

Don’t let osteoarthritis diminish your pet’s zest for life. If you’ve noticed changes in your pet’s mobility or signs of joint discomfort, contact us to schedule a consultation. Our team can help determine if Solensia or Librela is the right choice for managing your pet’s arthritis pain.
