Cold weather can be tough on pets!

Here’s how to keep them safe:
• Limit outdoor time (even for thick-coated breeds)
• Use sweaters or booties for small or short-haired dogs
• Always wipe paws to remove salt, ice melt, or antifreeze
• Be cautious with space heaters and cold-weather hazards
• Watch for frostbite or hypothermia: whining, shivering, weakness
• And never leave pets in a car, no matter the season

Stay warm, stay safe!

November is Pet Diabetes Awareness Month

Did you know pets can develop diabetes just like people? It’s more common than many realize, especially in older pets, those who are overweight, or certain breeds.

Here are a few signs to watch for:
• Increased thirst and urination
• Unexplained weight loss
• Increased appetite
• Low energy or lethargy

If you’ve noticed any of these in your dog or cat, it’s worth giving us a call. Diabetes in pets is manageable, especially when caught early. With the right care plan, many diabetic pets go on to live happy, healthy lives.

Keep Halloween fun, not frightening for your pets! Here are a few common Halloween hazards to watch out for:

⚠️ Treats & candy – Chocolate, xylitol, and raisins can be toxic.

⚠️ Decorations – Cords, candles, and fake cobwebs can cause burns or injuries.

⚠️ Costumes – Ensure they’re comfortable, breathable, and don’t restrict movement.

⚠️ Noise & door traffic – Trick-or-treaters can stress pets out or lead to escapes.

Tip: Keep pets in a quiet, safe room during the busiest hours, and always supervise them if they’re wearing a costume.

If your pet gets into a Halloween scare, call us right away. We’re here to help. 🐶🐱👻

Fall is a great season for walks and play—but it also brings some risks:

🌙 Darker evenings – Use reflective gear to stay visible.
❄️ Cooler temps – Seniors and small breeds may need a jacket.
🦝 Wildlife activity – Keep pets leashed to avoid surprises.
🍁 Leaf piles – Fun to jump in, but can hide ticks, mold, or sharp sticks.

👉 If your pet gets injured or spooked, we’re just a call away.
