Did you know that dogs communicate primarily through body posture and facial expression? It's important to observe their entire body, not just one isolated part, to interpret their non-verbal messages accurately. Consider the context, including their environment and recent events, before drawing any conclusions.

πŸ‘œπŸš« Pet owners, beware of leaving your bags and purses lying around!

🐾 If you typically carry medications or other harmful substances, such as sugar-free gums or hand sanitizers, your furry friends could be in DANGER.

😿 In fact, human medications are some of the top offenders on the ASPCA APCC's pet toxins list. Keep your bags and purses out of reach and secure to prevent accidental exposure to harmful substances!πŸ™

🐢🐱 Good oral health is essential for your furry friend's overall well-being!

To prevent dental problems and expensive surgeries, start taking care of their teeth at home. Brush their teeth daily with special toothpaste and consider using VOHC-approved dental products.

And don't forget about dental diet food to prevent plaque and tartar buildup!

🐾🦷🧻 Did you know there's a way to clean your dog's teeth without using a toothbrush? Enter: dog dental wipes! Here's why you should consider them:

πŸ‘‰ Dental wipes are a convenient alternative to toothbrushes and toothpaste, especially if your furry friend doesn't tolerate brushing well.

πŸ‘‰ They are designed to help remove plaque from your dog's teeth by being rubbed against their teeth and gums.

πŸ‘‰ Dental wipes are especially great for dogs with smaller mouths or those who won't sit still for a traditional brushing session.

πŸ‘‰ While they can't clean as deeply as a toothbrush, they are still an effective way to promote your pet's dental health and prevent dental disease.

Have you tried dental wipes for your furry friend? Let us know in the comments below! 🐾🦷

🌲🐾 Vaccines = Protection for Outdoor Adventures! 🐾🌲

As the weather warms up, many of us are excited to hit the trails with our furry friends! Whether it’s hiking, camping, or just enjoying the great outdoors, it’s important to remember that certain illnesses can be more common in dogs during outdoor activities. That's where vaccines come in!

πŸ’‰ Vaccines help protect your dog from illnesses they may be exposed to in outdoor environments, like:

🦠 Leptospirosis: A bacterial infection spread through water or soil contaminated by animal urine. Hiking near lakes or streams can put your dog at risk.

🐾 Lyme disease: Ticks can transmit Lyme disease, which can lead to joint pain and other serious issues.

πŸ• Kennel Cough: Highly contagious respiratory disease, often spread in areas where dogs gather like parks, trails, or boarding facilities.

πŸ’‘ Why Vaccines Matter:
They prevent diseases that are common in the wild or in public spaces.
Help ensure your dog can enjoy outdoor adventures safely without the risk of serious illness.
Protect your dog and other pets in the community from the spread of contagious diseases.
Before you and your dog embark on your next adventure, make sure their vaccinations are up to date! 🐾 Ready to schedule a check-up or vaccination appointment? Give us a call today!

🦟 Lyme disease is a vector-borne bacterial infection caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi. The blacklegged tick (i.e., deer tick) is the primary Lyme disease carrier, and can be found throughout many areas. The disease is transmitted when an infected blacklegged tick attaches and feeds on a warm-blooded mammal, including dogs, horses, and humans.

The bacteria enter the general circulation and trigger chronic health issues, including joint swelling and inflammation, heart damage, kidney failure, and neurologic problems. Protect your pet and yourself from this debilitating condition by contacting us at (817) 523-7210. Stay informed, stay safe, and keep your furry friend healthy! 🐾
