🐴 Fun Fact Friday🐴

Did you know horses can sleep both standing up or lying down?

Thanks to a special system of tendons and ligaments called the stay apparatus, horses can lock their legs and rest without falling over — a survival trait developed to stay alert to predators in the wild.

Snakes are a vital part of our ecosystem — controlling pests, maintaining balance, and often misunderstood.

✔️ Learn before you handle
✔️ Provide species-specific care
✔️ Never release non-native snakes into the wild
✔️ See a vet trained in exotic animal care

Fireworks may be fun for us—but they can be frightening for pets. Here’s how to keep them safe and calm this holiday:

🐾 Create a safe space: Keep pets indoors with their favorite blanket or toy.

🎶 Muffle the noise: Use white noise or calming music to drown out fireworks.

📛 ID check: Make sure your pet’s microchip and ID tags are up to date.

🚪 Prevent escapes: Secure doors, windows, and gates before the festivities begin.

🥳 Skip the scraps: Keep human food and glow sticks away from curious pets.

Your yard might be your pet’s favorite place — but is it safe?

Gardens and lawns can hide hidden dangers for pets if we’re not careful.

A few small steps can help prevent big problems. Safe yard = happy paws!

Bad breath isn’t just unpleasant — it’s a red flag. 🦷

Dental disease is one of the most common (and overlooked) health issues in pets. Just like us, they need regular dental care to stay healthy!

Healthy teeth = a longer, happier life. Show your pet some love — don’t skip the dental care!

It’s the First Day of Summer — is your pet ready for the heat? 🐾🌞

Warm weather means more time outside, but it also brings real risks for our furry companions. Here’s how to keep them safe, cool, and comfortable all season long:

🧊 Be Prepared
✔️ Provide fresh water & access to shade
✔️ Stay on top of flea, tick & heartworm prevention
✔️ Know the signs of heat stress

🚫 Leave Pets at Home
✔️ Never leave pets in cars — even with windows cracked
✔️ Keep them indoors during errands

🐕‍🦺 Exercise Smart
✔️ Walk during cooler hours
✔️ Avoid hot pavement — it can burn paws
✔️ Take breaks & pack water for both of you

If it’s too hot for you, it’s even hotter for your pet. Let’s make this summer a safe and happy one! 💛

We can’t think of a more deserving person!
