Keep Pets Cool & Stimulated This Summer!

Hot weather can mean less outdoor time for pets—but that doesn’t mean they have to be bored!
Environmental enrichment keeps your pets mentally and physically active, which helps prevent anxiety, destructive behavior, and summertime blues.

Fun ways to keep your pet happy (and cool!):
🍦 Frozen Treats:

Stuff a Kong with wet food, peanut butter, or plain yogurt + freeze

Freeze low-sodium broth with treats or kibble inside ice cube trays

Make DIY pupsicles with banana, pumpkin purée, or blueberries

Indoor Games & Toys:

Use treat-dispensing puzzle toys or snuffle mats

Rotate toys every few days to keep things fresh

Practice new tricks or obedience training with small rewards

🐾 For cats:

Freeze tuna water into ice cubes for play & licking

Hide kibble in paper rolls or puzzle toys

Create cool hideouts near fans or in shaded rooms

Keeping pets enriched doesn’t have to be complicated—it just takes a little creativity (and maybe a freezer)!

HEAT WARNING: Keep Your Pets Safe This Weekend!
Temps are rising and this weekend is going to be hot. Remember—your furry friends feel the heat more than you do!

🐾 Tips to Keep Pets Cool & Safe:

* Never leave pets in a parked car—even for a minute. Temps can soar to deadly levels in moments.

*Walk early or late in the day to avoid hot pavement and high temps. If it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for their paws!

*Provide plenty of fresh, cool water and shade if your pet is outdoors.

* Limit exercise, especially for brachycephalic (short-nosed) breeds like Bulldogs, Pugs, and Persians.

* Watch for signs of heatstroke: excessive panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, or collapse. Call us right away if you see these signs!

*Stay safe, stay cool—and don’t forget to keep those pets hydrated and in the shade!

🐾Microchipping Your Dog is Essential for Their Safety.🐾

Your dog is a beloved member of the family, and keeping them safe is a top priority. Whether they’re a couch potato or an energetic explorer, microchipping is one of the best ways to ensure your dog is protected.

Why Microchip Your Dog?
- **Unexpected Escapes:** Even the most well-behaved dogs can slip out of a gate, get spooked, or run off during a walk. If they get lost, a microchip provides a permanent ID that can help reunite you.
- **Travel and Adventures:** Whether you’re on a road trip or just a trip to the park, having your dog microchipped adds an extra layer of security in case they get separated from you.
- **Collars Can Be Lost:** Unlike collars and tags, which can break or be removed, a microchip stays with your dog for life, ensuring they can always be identified.

How Does It Work?
A microchip is a tiny device implanted just under your dog’s skin, containing a unique ID number. If your dog is found, veterinarians or shelters can scan the chip and connect them back to you.

Simple, Safe, and Effective:
Microchipping is a quick, virtually painless procedure that can provide lifelong protection. It’s a small investment with a huge return—your dog’s safety!

Make sure your furry friend is always able to find their way home. Get them microchipped today! 🐾

Leptospirosis: A Hidden Risk for All Dogs—Even in Your Backyard

Did you know that leptospirosis isn’t just a concern for dogs who hike, hunt, or swim in lakes? While those pups are certainly at risk, city dogs are too—just by spending time in the backyard or on a walk around the neighborhood.

Leptospirosis is a bacterial disease spread through the urine of infected wildlife like rats, raccoons, and squirrels. Dogs can become infected by drinking contaminated water or having contaminated water come in contact with an open wound (like a simple cut or a sore). This means even the most urban pup can be exposed.

Leptospirosis can cause serious illness in dogs and is also a zoonotic disease, meaning it can spread to humans.

The good news? It's preventable.

We strongly recommend the leptospirosis vaccine for all dogs—whether they're weekend adventurers or backyard loungers.

If your dog isn’t protected yet, give us a call to schedule their vaccine or ask if they're due for a booster!

Did you know a single mosquito bite can put your pet at risk for heartworm disease?
Heartworms live in the heart and lungs and can cause severe damage—or even be fatal.

The key to protection? Consistent, on-time prevention.
Missing doses can leave your pet vulnerable.

Heartworm prevention is simple, safe, and effective—make sure your pet is protected every single month.

If your pet is not protected, schedule a heartworm test and get your pet on a regular prevention plan today!

We love seeing pets enjoy the water—but safety comes first! Here are some top tips for boating and water fun with your furry companion:

• Always use a pet life jacket—even strong swimmers can tire or get caught in currents.
• Provide shade and fresh water—lakes and rivers aren't safe for drinking!
• Never leave pets unattended on the boat or dock.
• Watch for signs of overheating like heavy panting or lethargy.
• Rinse off after swimming to remove algae, bacteria, or chemicals.
• Be cautious of blue-green algae—it’s toxic and can be deadly.
• Don’t force nervous pets onto boats—it’s okay if your dog prefers dry land!

Let’s make summer memories safely—on land or water!

Questions or concerns? Give us a call before you go.
