Good Shepherd Pet Hospital

From the doctors and management team at Good Shepherd we wanted to remind our Flock families about Veterinary Employee Appreciation week, October 12-18th.

Our veterinary team along with all veterinary teams everywhere, work hard and are dedicated to giving the best care to all the fur babies. The veterinary team often get forgotten in the "Thank you" and appreciations, but they are the ones on the front line making sure every pet is safe and taken care of. Your veterinary technicians, receptionists and assistants do so much more than what you see when you come in for your visit.

When you come in for your visit any day next week, or whenever your visit may be, even if you just stop in for supplies or are passing by, remember to give your veterinary team a note of thanks. Because those "Thank you" and "You are appreciated" go a long way, and mean so much.

We could not do what we do everyday without them.

Cooler weather means longer, more comfortable outdoor adventures!

But senior pets or those with joint issues may need modifications. Consider shorter, more frequent walks on softer surfaces like grass instead of concrete, and warming up before vigorous play.

How does your pet's exercise routine change with the seasons?

September taught us about transitions, resilience, and the importance of routine. Our pets showed us how to adapt to change while maintaining the relationships that matter most. As we head into October, let's carry forward the lessons our pets teach us daily: patience during adjustment, joy in simple moments, and unconditional love through every season. What did your pet teach you this month?

As activity levels change with cooler weather, joint health becomes especially important for our pets. If you notice any changes in your pet's mobility or activity levels, it's worth discussing with your veterinarian. They can help you create a personalized plan to support your pet's joint health and comfort. Early conversations with your vet about mobility can help maintain quality of life as pets age. Schedule a mobility assessment if you have concerns!

Today we pause to remember the shelter pets still waiting for homes and honor those who never got a second chance. Every pet deserves love, care, and a family to call their own. While we remember those we've lost, we also celebrate the incredible rescue organizations and volunteers working to save lives every day. ❤️

Life changes affect pets more than we realize! Moving, new family members, job changes, or even furniture rearrangement can cause stress. Help your pet cope by maintaining feeding routines, providing familiar comfort items, introducing changes gradually when possible, and offering extra patience during adjustment periods. If they just can't seem to adjust, we're here to help with expert advice.

Responsible dog ownership looks different for every family, but some basics remain the same: providing proper nutrition, regular exercise, veterinary care, training, and lots of love. It means understanding your dog's needs, respecting community spaces, and making decisions based on their wellbeing rather than convenience.

What does responsible ownership mean to you?
