A feral cat in northeast Harris County has tested positive for rabies — a serious reminder of how important it is to keep your pets protected.

Rabies is a deadly virus that can spread to pets — and people — through bites from infected animals like raccoons, bats, skunks, coyotes, feral cats and unvaccinated domestic animals.

The rabies vaccine isn’t just important — it’s the law in Texas.

Keep your pets safe. Keep your family safe.
Outdoor pets are especially at risk, but all pets need protection. Don’t wait — make sure your pet is up to date on their rabies vaccine!

We’re excited to announce that we now offer Bravecto Quantum—a convenient injectable that protects your dog from fleas and most ticks for a full YEAR!

No more monthly reminders, messy topicals, or pills to hide in treats. Just one quick injection from your vet, and your pup is protected for 12 months. It’s stress-free for you and your dog!

And remember—fleas are a year-round problem here in Texas. Our mild winters don’t get cold enough to wipe them out, so year-long protection is the best way to keep your pet itch-free and healthy.

Stop by or give us a call to learn more or schedule your pet’s appointment.

Fireworks can be fun for us, but they’re often stressful for our pets. If your dog or cat uses anti-anxiety medication, now’s the time to call in those refills!

🐾 Please don’t wait until the last minute — we want to make sure your pet stays calm, safe, and comfortable during the celebrations.

Happy Veterinary Receptionist Week!
This week, we’re celebrating the friendly faces at the front desk—the heart of our clinic!
From scheduling appointments to comforting pet parents, our veterinary receptionists do it all with a smile (and usually a treat or two!).
Thank you for your kindness, patience, and the care you bring to every furry friend that walks through our doors.
We couldn’t do it without you!

Good morning!

We are looking to find a forever home for two sweet Persian cats whose owners have sadly passed away. They are both fully vaccinated, spayed, and neutered.

Ideally, we'd love to re-home them together to keep them comfortable during this transition, but we're open to discussing options. They deserve a loving family to care for them, and we hope to find a new home where they can thrive.

If you're interested or know someone who may be, please reach out!

Cutest bundle of joy alert!

These little Boston Terrier puppies came in for their first exam and stole our hearts!
From their floppy ears to their little paws, they are all about cuddles and playtime. Who could resist this cuteness overload?

Did you know that February is Dental Month? Just like us, our furry friends need good dental care to stay healthy! Regular brushing, dental treats, and check-ups with the vet can help keep their teeth and gums in tip-top shape. Don’t forget—bad oral health can lead to bigger problems like heart and kidney issues. Let's show our pets some love by making their dental health a priority this month!

Meet Chloe! She's here for her very first groom with our experienced and talented groomer, Maria. It's so important to get puppies used to grooming at a young age for several reasons:

Reduces Anxiety: Early grooming experiences help puppies feel more relaxed and comfortable during future visits.

Prevents Matting: Regular grooming keeps their coat healthy and prevents tangles or mats from forming.

Promotes Healthy Skin: Grooming helps remove dirt, debris, and excess hair, promoting better skin health.

Establishes Positive Associations: Early grooming ensures that your pup doesn’t associate grooming with stress or fear.

Keeps Nails Trimmed: Regular grooming helps maintain appropriate nail length and reduces the risk of painful overgrowth.

We're excited to help Chloe get started on the right paw!

Call us at 281-342-7770 to schedule your pet's grooming appointment!

Piper is getting some much-needed relief with laser therapy as we manage her suspected IVDD. We're hopeful that this non-invasive treatment will help ease her discomfort and support her recovery journey.

Laser therapy is a great option to improve your fur baby’s quality of life!
