Did you know that just one bite from an infected mosquito can give your dog or cat heartworms? This disease is serious, potentially deadly, and completely preventable.

Why do we recommend heartworm prevention? Because we've treated heartworm disease, and it's not an easy process - it's very painful and costly. Year-round heartworm prevention ensures your pet is protected from this horrible disease.

When it comes to Heatstroke in pets, it's important to ACT FAST! Heatstroke is a life-threatening condition that can affect pets quickly during warm or humid weather. Dogs and cats can’t regulate their body temperature as efficiently as humans, making them more vulnerable to overheating. Flat-faced breeds, older animals, overweight pets, and those with thick coats are particularly at risk. If left untreated, it can lead to organ failure or death within minutes.

Below are signs of anxiety and some tips to help your pet ride out the storm. It's good to keep in mind to avoid scolding your pet for being scared.

🐾 Spring and summer are prime time for ticks, and these little pests love to hitch a ride on our furry friends. To keep your dog safe and comfortable, it’s important to check them regularly for ticks—especially after outdoor adventures! Ticks can be tiny and hard to spot, so use your fingers to carefully feel through your dog’s fur. If you find a tick, don’t panic! Call us or ask about safe tick removal techniques.

Regular tick checks + prevention = happy, healthy pups!
