✨ Red Laser Therapy for Dogs ✨

Did you know that red laser therapy can help your dog feel better, move easier, and heal faster? 🐾

This safe, non-invasive treatment uses gentle light to:
✅ Relieve pain from arthritis and injuries
✅ Reduce swelling and inflammation
✅ Speed up healing after surgery or wounds
✅ Improve mobility and comfort

Most pets find laser sessions relaxing—and many even nap through them! 😴💡

If your pup is slowing down, recovering from surgery, or just needs a little extra comfort, ask us about how laser therapy could help. ❤️🐶

📞 Call us today to learn more or schedule a session!

This little guy had a nice little bump on his after head playing with a friend so we used laser therapy to encourage healing and reduce swelling! How cute are these “doggles”?

September is Animal Pain Awareness Month, and our pets can't always tell us when they're hurting.

Did you know cats and dogs are masters at hiding pain? Watch for these subtle signs:
● Changes in eating or sleeping habits
● Reluctance to jump, play, or go on walks
● Unusual aggression or withdrawal
● Excessive grooming of one area
● Changes in posture or gait

If you've noticed any changes in your furry friend's behavior, it might be time for a check-up. Our team at Parkway Veterinary Center is trained to recognize and treat pain in pets of all ages.

Don't let your pet suffer in silence. Call us today at (941) 351-8888 to schedule an appointment, or you can also request an appointment online. Together, we can keep your best friend happy,
healthy, and pain-free!

📍 July is National Lost Pet Prevention Month
Each year, millions of pets go missing—and not all of them make it back home.
This month, take some simple steps to protect your furry loved ones:
🔍 Make sure your pet’s microchip information is current (we can scan and verify this for you!)
🐾 Check that your pet wears ID tags with a legible phone number and address
📱 Consider a GPS collar or smart tag for extra security
🛠️ Double-check gates, fences, and screens to prevent accidental escapes
Prevention is always easier than searching. If you’re not sure whether your pet’s microchip is active or want to update your information, we’re here to help.
📞 Call (941) 351-8888 to schedule a quick chip check

🎆 4th of July: Make It a Safe Celebration for Your Pets
As Independence Day approaches, remember that while we love the fireworks, pets often don’t. Loud bangs and flashing lights can cause extreme stress or even lead pets to run away.

Here’s how to help your pets feel secure this 4th of July:
🛑 Keep pets indoors and away from windows
🎧 Use background noise like music or white noise to mask fireworks
💊 Ask us about calming products if your pet struggles with anxiety
📍 Ensure your pet’s microchip and ID tags are up to date—just in case
A little preparation goes a long way in protecting your furry family members during the festivities.

📞 Call us at (941) 351-8888 for calming support or ID tag checks.

🌀 Hurricane Season is Here: Is Your Pet Prepared?

Living in Florida means always being ready for hurricane season—and that includes preparing for your pets.

Just like your family, pets need a disaster plan. Here’s how to get started:
✅ Create a Pet Emergency Kit: Include food, water, medications, leash, ID tags, medical records, and a photo of your pet in case you’re separated.
✅ Microchip Your Pet: It’s one of the best ways to be reunited if they get lost during an evacuation.
✅ Find Pet-Friendly Shelters: Research in advance so you know where you can go if needed.
✅ Stay Informed: Keep our phone number and local emergency contacts saved in your phone.
We’re here to support you and your pet year-round, especially during storm season.

🌞 Beat the Florida Heat – Protect Your Pets This Summer!

Florida summers are no joke, and our furry friends feel the heat just like we do—sometimes even more. Dogs and cats can easily overheat in hot, humid weather, which can quickly turn dangerous.
☀️ Here are a few essential tips to keep them safe:

• Avoid walking your pet during midday heat—early morning or evening walks are safer.
• Always provide cool, fresh water and access to shade when outdoors.
• Never leave pets in parked cars—even a few minutes can be life-threatening.
• Use your hand to test pavement before walking: if it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for them.
Some breeds are more prone to heatstroke, so if you’re unsure, we’re happy to offer personalized advice. Let’s keep those tails wagging all summer long!
