"Should I stop giving my pet flea medication in the winter?" Is a common question we get asked this time of year. Unfortunately, fleas can survive in temperatures as low as 33 degrees for up to five days, so these back and forth warm and cold temps can keep them around for a while and help them invade your home longer.

So the simple answer is: YES! We recommend you still treat your pet during these colder months, just to be giving the best protection. We sell a variety of different products, so feel free to call us about which products might be best for your pet.

Everyone please keep this in mind as we take on the next few days!!❄️💙

With the wintry weather on our doorstep we wanted to provide additional information regarding the county ordinances pertaining to sheltering, particularly for this time of year. See below for definitions regarding shelter as well as what constitutes weather that canines would need to be brought inside for.
Please keep in mind that we can only enforce the ordinances and definitions below; even if the circumstances are not ideal for the canine, as long as the below conditions are met there is unfortunately nothing for us to act upon.
SECTION 90.01 DEFINITIONS:
ADEQUATE SHELTER. Shall be provided to any canine(s) that remains outside. The shelter must be suitable for the species, age, and condition of the animal, The shelter shall:
(1) be structurally sound, with a solid floor, enclosed sides or walls, and must be properly ventilated. The shelter shall be sanitary and weather/waterproof. Suitable drainage must be provided so that water is not standing in or around the structure;
(2) be small enough to allow the animal’s body heat to warm the interior of the structure but be large enough to allow the animal to stand up, turn around, and lie down without touching the walls;
(3) be made from suitable, appropriate, materials to prevent harm or injury to the animal(s);
(4) provide access to shade from direct sunlight and regress from exposure to inclement weather conditions, hot or cold, but which does not exacerbate existing weather conditions; and
