🌈Whether fur, feathers, scales, fins, or more - a special day to remember those cherished pets we have lost but not forgotten is celebrated on August 28 as Rainbow Remembrance Day🌈

🎉HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUBREY!🎉
Please help us wish our youngest employee Aubrey a happy birthday! You may not see Aubrey much as she is a kennel aid and works mostly behind the scenes! Aubrey is a great asset to the team!

Here’s a little bio about Aubrey:

“I have been working at HVC for almost a year as a kennel aid. One of my favorite parts is the animal snuggles.

I have four horses, two dogs and a cat. I enjoy riding horses, working on robots, and traveling.

I am currently a senior in high school and I am going to college for Computer Engineering. I want to work as an engineer on military aircraft in the future.”

🩷💙pet pics of the week featuring some furry puppy friends!🩷💙
• Zeus the 13 week old Rottweiler
• Lexi the 17 week old ShihTzu Mix
• Ruby the 16 week old lab

These puppies owners are taking the right steps to maintain a healthy lifestyle for their little loves!

Here’s some tips on keeping your puppies up to date on preventative care:
•Core Vaccines (including Distemper, Adenovirus, Parvo, Rabies) help keep your puppy from contagious diseases that may affect their health!
•Spay/Neuter, getting your pet spayed or neutered at the correct age decreases health risks for females like breast/mammary cancer. In males it can lower the risk of prostate cancer and can improve behavioral issues like aggression! In addition to health benefits, spay and neuter services help eliminate unwanted litters and reduce overall behavioral concerns
•Quality Diet which supports your puppies overall wellness. Grain free diets are not recommended!
• Exercise is critical to maintaining energy, health, weight, and more.
• Microchip may not be an obvious part of preventative care but is a great way to help you avoid something scary in the future. A microchip is a small device implanted under your pets skin that allows them to be identified and reunited with you if they are ever lost!
• Regular flea and tick treatments (purchased at your veterinarian office) is the best way to prevent animal parasites from wreaking havoc on your puppy
• Check ups and wellness exams are a HUGE part of supporting all the preventative care discussed above!

Preventative care not only lowers your puppies risks but also helps them live a long, happy, healthy life!

If you have a new puppy or any questions regarding any of the above described preventative care please feel free to reach out to us! 🐾

‼️‼️Attention dog owners‼️‼️

We are seeing more PARVO cases this summer than we have in years. If you have a puppy, please be careful. Do not take your puppy out and about until 7-10 days AFTER finishing their ENTIRE vaccine series given BY A VET. Not just one vaccine. Not a feed store vaccine you bought and kept in your center console for an hour.

Complete and properly administered vaccines against parvo are highly protective against this extremely contagious and deadly virus.

More information regarding parvo can be found at: https://www.avma.org/resources-tools/pet-owners/petcare/canine-parvovirus
