Unfortunately, dogs can’t simply say, “Hi. I have allergies.” We have to know what to look for. While home with your dog, be on the lookout for these common signs. Notice any? Contact us for help. Left untreated, allergies can lead to infection.

This is Atlas, a 13 year old boxer weighing in at 75lbs. Atlas is enjoying his first hike in TWO YEARS thanks to an amazing new osteoarthritis treatment for dogs: Librela.
Librela is a monthly injection that targets Nerve Growth Factor, a messenger protein found in arthritic joints, which tells the brain OUCH. Librela stops the signaling which provides dogs with much needed comfort. Many dogs feel more like puppies after starting on Librela. Just ask Atlas! He's been getting Librela for 3 months and is so happy to be with his mom in the great outdoors.
We know it's cold out but we bet your pup still wants to go outside for a walk 🐕🦺 Check out these 5 benefits of walking your pup outside 🌳 #getoutside #goforawalk #WalkYourDog #itsadogslife
It's going to be cold out tomorrow! Consider putting your pup in a sweater or jacket before potty breaks to help them stay warm until it's time to go back inside by the fire.

UPDATE: Harry and Niall have been tested with kids and the result is that THEY ARE KID-FRIENDLY! A two year old can carry them and they will turn into absolute marshmallows. They loved playing with Pet Resort Supervisor Sarah's youngest kid.
Active boys Harry and Niall are looking for their furrever home.
They are two months old, neutered, and current on age appropriate vaccines. They also tested negative for FIV/FeLV.
Harry and Niall are so playful and have a LOT of energy. They don't mind being handled so they may do well in a house with kids, but they haven't been tested.
We'd love for them to go to a new home together but they can be split up if they have other cats to play with.
If you are interested in meeting Harry and Niall, please call or stop by the office.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Don't forget that we have urgent care hours this evening. Give us a call if your pet has an urgent or emergent need.
When puppies and kittens are spayed or neutered before they finish growing, their calorie needs drop, but their nutrient needs for healthy growth remain the same. Ask us about how VETERINARY HPM® Junior Diets support growth, while avoiding excess calories.
Harley with Zoetis' Solensia Injections
STORY TIME! Many of you are used to seeing our resident cats Jo and Kira playing up on the balcony and dropping toys down so that everyone has to throw them back up there. However, you might not be so familiar with our other cat Harley.
Harley came to us a little over 2 years ago after her owner passed away and she's been living with Jo and Kira since then. Harley is older, almost 8 years or so, and was just not as active as Jo or Kira. Oftentimes we see the younger ones jumping up onto the cat perches or sitting in the windows, running around, chasing each other. Harley just wouldn't. It took a while, but we realized that she may have been suffering from feline osteoarthritis. This can make normal cat things like walking, jumping, playing, even grooming... painful for them. One time, Harley had to have her back shaved down because it was matted from her not grooming herself regularly.
Late last year, a new injection was released to help ease the pain and discomfort of feline osteoarthritis. This drug is called Solensia. We decided to give it a try on Harley to see if it would help her feel better. Take a look at the video of her playing! She's almost acting like a kitten again, and this is only after 2 of the monthly injections! It's made a world of difference for her and we are so excited to see how much more it can help.
If you believe that your cat may be suffering from osteoarthritis, schedule an exam to see if Solensia is the right choice for them.

Chiquilla (white/gray female) and Oso (gray male) are a bonded pair of doodles looking for a home together. They actually came from the same litter, so they've spent their whole lives together! As you can see, they are fun and playful, and they're able to keep themselves entertained.
Chiquilla and Oso are two years old and current on vaccines. They have also been spayed and neutered already. They did test positive for heartworms and will need an owner that is committed to keeping them on prescribed heartworm prevention (Advantage Multi) even after they no longer test positive.
If you are interested in meeting Chiquilla and Oso, call or stop by The Pet Resort at Pamlico Animal Hospital!
*All three have been adopted!*

Olivia was really enjoying playing with Kira this afternoon. I think the feeling was mutual.
