Happy rainy Friday!!! The fall leaves have been just beautiful around here!!🍁🍂🍁Hope you get a chance to notice them in your busy day☺️ Halloween is fast approaching🎃. Make sure you have a plan for your inside animals so they don't dart out the door during trick o treating times!! Also keep the candy bins and bags up high and behind closed doors so the 4 leggeds don't over indulge🫢🐈🐕!! Finally, be mindful of your costumes.. why you might they they look amazing - your dog or cat might find you terrifying 🙀 And they may not what to go along with you playing dress up. Have a great weekend ya'll☺️🍁

Many people think a bird that can fly away after a window collision is okay. The unfortunate fact is that birds often sustain serious unseen injuries, such as bruising, eye ulcers, and fractures. Tragically, collisions are often fatal.

In fact, American Bird Conservancy and collaborators recently published research in PLOS ONE showing OVER 1 BILLION birds die annually from building collisions in the U.S.— far more than previously thought.

Save this image to remember some subtle signs that indicate a bird is injured and requires immediate medical treatment. Contact your local wildlife rehab center or visit https://flap.org/finding-an-injured-bird/ for further advice on how to help.

We have been loving watching the Olympics and all the amazing athletes of the world!! 🏅🏅Probably staying up too late to keep watching!!😜😴😴
Wanted to give a heads up - our office will be closed the week of August 12-18th, there will still be limited medication pick up options available but if you know you are going to need something; it would be best to get this week!! That is the week of the Berrien County Fair so all you fair goers 👋listen up 👂- make sure you have your coggins and proof of vaccination letters accessible NOW!! We won't be able to get them the week I'm gone.
Keep hydrated and cool out there🥵drink plenty of water and get in the shade whenever possible. Make sure your animals are drinking plenty of water💦💦 and they have access to some shade - a fan would be nice too!

Be sure to watch out for this in these hot days!!

It's HOT out there! ☀️ 🔥 Please be cautious about having your dog accompany you to outdoor events (especially if they are on pavement!) and be sure they have lots of shade and fresh water when they do need to be outside. Do you know how to recognize signs of heat stroke in dogs?

If you observe these signs, get your dog out of the heat and to a veterinarian immediately - heat stroke can escalate fast!
