Chocolate is a Human-Only Treat!

Did you know chocolate can be incredibly dangerous for our pets? While it might be a delicious treat for us, it contains two harmful chemicals—caffeine and theobromine—that our furry friends simply can’t handle. These can cause everything from an upset stomach to heart issues, dehydration, and even more serious problems.

To keep your pets safe, always store chocolate out of their reach, especially during holidays like Christmas, Halloween, or Valentine’s Day, when sweets are everywhere. Instead, treat them to pet-safe snacks made just for them—they’ll feel just as loved, and you’ll have peace of mind.

👉 Remember: Prevention is key! Chocolate is a human-only treat, no exceptions.

🎄Busy with last-minute Christmas chores? Don’t worry, we’ve got your furr babies covered! 🎄

Give us a call at 📞 830-964-3551 to get your pet on the schedule today. We’re here to make sure your pets are feeling their best for the holidays! 🐶🐱

Pets can’t advocate for their needs like us humans can, and many owners fail to recognize signs of osteoarthritis (OA), often chalking it up to pets “slowing down with age.” OA is common in dogs and cats ages six and up, so to help champion their health, we’re sharing the key signs of this degenerative joint disease so that you know when it’s time to seek veterinary support.

If your pet is . . .
• Struggling to climb up or down stairs
• Having trouble jumping up or down
• Slow to rise from a resting position
• Lagging behind on walks or during play . . you should discuss these concerns with us.

The good news is highly effective treatments exist to help manage the chronic pain associated with OA and increase their mobility. With the right pain management, your pet can get back to being themselves again!

Kidney (or renal) disease is very common in dogs and cats, and it may be reversible or permanent based on underlying causes. The disease could be a result of age-related changes to the kidneys, acute injury or toxin ingestion, congenital defects present from birth, or in rare cases, a side effect of some medications. To prevent kidney disease or slow its progression, it's vital to stay regular with wellness visits so that together, we can monitor renal levels with blood work and urinalysis and catch any changes ASAP.

Warning:️ this post is about p**p! 💩 If you’ve ever wondered why you’re asked to bring in a f***l sample as part of your pet’s annual wellness exam, the answer is to check for intestinal parasites.

There are a variety of parasites that thrive inside of otherwise healthy pets, so having them routinely tested is essential to their well-being. Your pet's p**p will be checked for evidence of hookworms, roundworms, giardia, and more. 🔬
These parasites can not only make pets uncomfortable and irritable but can also lead to many more serious issues if left untreated. Several parasites can even be transmitted to people, so by having your pet’s f***s examined, you are protecting humans in your household, too!

To learn more about what intestinal parasites we test for in f***l exams, visit:
