-Never leave your pet unattended in a car
-When hot/humid, keep your pet’s time outdoors limited ​
-Keep your pet hydrated​
-Ensure your pet has ventilation and a cool environment​
-Dogs with short noses are at higher risk due to their condensed facial anatomy and restricted ability to cool themselves​

Did you know that less than 10% of the pets that are unchipped will return home each year?

A microchip is a secure, reliable, permanent identification for your pet and the process is simple and affordable. Microchipping your pet can help ensure that if your pet goes missing, they can be identified and find their way back to you.

If your pet is chipped, make sure their information is up to date. To help keep pets close to their loved ones, share this post and remind your friends to !

Hello everyone! We wanted to give an update on food at the clinic.

We appreciate everyone’s patience the last few months while we worked on shipping and consistency in stock issues.
After careful review, we have made a few changes to what we will be keeping in stock and our ordering timeline. Please review the changes below:

ORDERING– we will be ordering food every other week and it will take approximately 1 to 2 weeks for delivery. Please keep this in mind when reviewing your food stock and let us know as soon as possible if you need something ordered.

ROYAL CANIN – Breed specific food (i.e. Lab, Golden Retriever, German Shepard, etc.) will now be special order only.

ACANA – We will be reducing the number of flavors we keep in stock to just Lamb & Apple, Duck & Pear, Free Run Poultry, and Red Meat for adult dogs.

TASTE OF THE WILD – We will no longer be carrying this brand in clinic.

CANINE CAVIAR – We will continue to carry this food but in limited stock.

Thank you again for your patience and please let us know if you have any questions.

Is your pet scooting or licking their rear? It could be their a**l glands.

A**l glands are located on the rear of dogs and cats. The glands produce an oily, fishy-smelling fluid that helps with scent marking. Sometimes these glands can get impacted or infected.

Soft, consistent stool, as well as allergies, are common causes of irritation. If your pet is scooting, licking excessively, or showing signs of discomfort around their rear end, contact us! We will help to identify the cause and determine the best course of treatment.

With tomorrow being Hairball Awareness Day, we wanted to remind our cat parents about the importance of preventing hairballs.

Accumulated from excessive grooming, hairballs can build in your cat’s digestive system and either get coughed up or in some cases, need surgical removal.
If your cat is excessively vomiting, lethargic, loses their appetite, or has diarrhea or constipation, these may be signs of a blockage and you should contact our team immediately.

April is – and with instances on the rise – we are sharing what you need to know as a pet owner!

Heartworms are life-threatening parasites, transmitted by mosquitoes, that can live in your pet’s system and can lead to heart failure, liver damage, or worse. Heartworm disease is 100% preventable. Annual testing and year-round prevention can provide a lifetime of protection.

If your pet is due for their annual heartworm test or needs a refill on prevention, contact us today! For more info on heartworms, click here: https://bit.ly/3Tpuo7L
