Did you know 40% of dogs and cats experience some level of pain due to Osteoarthritis (OA)?

OA is arthritis that develops when protective tissue in the joints deteriorates, leading to friction between the bones. Pain from OA can decrease your pet’s willingness to play or exercise.

Take the Pain Checklist quiz to see if they could be showing signs of OA: https://bit.ly/3Z5m7u6

If you suspect your pet may have signs of OA, please contact us so we can help them feel their very best!

September is , and as a pet owner, you know that you are your pet’s advocate when it comes to pain.

Can you imagine what it would be like to not be understood when you’re in pain? This video, produced by Canine Arthritis Management, illustrates exactly that:

Nobody should suffer in silence. 80% of dogs over 8 years old have arthritis, which is a major cause of elective euthanasia.

Here's a couple cuties that were in recently.
Arlo was an absolute love that we couldn't get enough of and we think he's going to be a big boy when he grows up!
Macy is such a little peanut and we just wanted to cuddle with her all day!
We can't wait to see them at their next appointment!

September is Leukemia & Lymphoma Awareness Month, and we want to remind our pet parents the importance of wellness visits, no matter the pet’s age.

Attending a wellness visit 1-2 times a year, along with routine bloodwork, helps our team to identify potential problems early and provide timely intervention.

Kittens are irresistibly cute with their tiny eyes, wispy fur, and playful antics. However, their first year requires patience, dedication, and understanding of feline development. Like human babies, kittens go through specific stages needing different care levels. Preparing for these milestones will help you raise a strong, healthy, and happy cat.

Cats are so laidback that people often think they are low-maintenance and don't need to go to the vet as often as dogs. In honor of National Take Your Cat to the Vet Day, we want to remind you of the top reasons our feline friends need regular exams, too!

If your cat is due for a visit, or if you have noticed any changes in their health or behavior, contact us today to book a visit. We want to keep them purring!

August is Itchy Pet Awareness Month, and we know that treating skin allergies is not one-size-fits-all. Treatment depends on the underlying cause, such as allergies, parasites, bacterial or fungal infections.

If you notice your pet excessively scratching, licking, biting or scooting, contact us so we can determine the cause and treatment plan – then give them a little scratch of love behind the ear! 😊
