Fall calls for all kinds of autumn decorations around the house to kick off the season! But many decorations can look like fun new toys or tasty treats to your pets. Be mindful this season when putting up new décor around the house and do what you can to proactively prevent accidents!

Keep what you can out of reach and double-check that any new plants, foods, and household products are pet safe before bringing them into your house: https://www.aspca.org/pet-care/animal-poison-control

We hope your fall season is fun and safe for all family, friends, and pets! 🐕🐈🍂

Gracie Lu, a 17-month-old Boxer, had an unfortunate run-in with a wasp nest that caused severe facial swelling. 😢

Thanks to her owner acting quickly and bringing her in for care, Gracie Lu received prompt treatment and is now on the road to recovery. This is a great reminder: if your pet experiences swelling, difficulty breathing, or unusual behavior after a sting or bite, contact your veterinarian or emergency clinic immediately. 💙

Tomorrow, we “fall back” an hour! ⏰
That means one more hour of sleep... or extra cuddle time with our pets. 🐾💕
Just remember — our pets don’t know the clocks have changed, so mealtime and bathroom routines might be a little off for a few days.

Dogs may have noticeable seizures causing their bodies to convulse. They may also exhibit more subtle signs such as facial tremors, sudden movements, or unusual barking. If your dog ever experiences a seizure, here are some things to remember:

-Stay calm and focused to help keep your pet at ease.
-Track the length of the seizures and note the symptoms.
-Do not attempt to restrain or stop the seizure.
-Always call your vet or emergency vet after an occurrence.

If the seizure lasts longer than 2-3 minutes or if your pet has more than one seizure in a 24-hour period, seek medical attention.
