🐾❤️ Maggie's Journey: A Story of Hope and Healing ❤️🐾

Meet Maggie, a very special senior mixed-breed dog adopted from PCAPS last year. This May, Maggie developed an illness that started with just a little limp and rapidly progressed to extreme pain, being unable to walk or eat over two days, kidney disease, and a bleeding disorder. Maggie had contracted LYME disease.

Happily, with aggressive treatment, Maggie made it through the worst days and survived. While her kidneys sustained damage that will likely require life-long medications and a special diet, she is doing so much better!

Thankfully, not all cases of tick-borne illnesses are this severe. As Benjamin Franklin wisely said, "an ounce of protection is worth a pound of cure."

Maggie’s story is a powerful reminder of the importance of preventive care. Ensure your pets are vaccinated and protected. 🐶💉

Take Action Now! Schedule an appointment with us to vaccinate your pet and refill their preventative medication to shield them from LYME Disease and other preventable illnesses.
