🐾 Reminder: Flea & Heartworm Prevention is Key! 🐾

Protect your pets from pesky parasites! Fleas and heartworms can cause serious health issues for your furry friends. Here's why prevention is essential:

🗓️ Stay on Schedule: Consistency is key! Mark your calendar to ensure you never miss a dose of flea and heartworm prevention.

🏥 Call the office at 858-271-1152 if you need a refill or want to get your pet on a flea, tick, and heartworm preventive. Or to find out what our favorites are.

Keep your pets happy and healthy—prevent fleas and heartworms today!

🐾We offer happy visits at Center Veterinary Clinic🐾
Happy Visits are a Fear Free technique that we love to implement for puppies or dogs who may need a little more confidence at the vet. This is a free, non-medical visit that involves your pet coming into the clinic, getting cookies or lots of love, maybe sitting on the scale, or going back into treatment without mom and dad, and then leaving.

This helps to create positive experiences that aren’t focused around scary or painful things. It helps build your dog's confidence and creates trust between the veterinary clinic staff and your pet! We like to put these visits on the schedule to ensure we have enough time, so give us a call to find out when your pup can come in for some extra lovin'.
