The devastation caused by the California fires is truly heartbreaking. Casey Colvin, whose home was completely destroyed, is seen here reuniting with his dog, Oreo. Thanks to the heroic efforts of firefighters, both of Caseyโs dogs were rescued before they could be trapped inside the burning home.We are incredibly grateful to the firefighters who have worked tirelessly to save both human lives and animals. Thanks to the incredible @pasadenahumane for their extraordinary efforts in taking in over 400 animals, providing emergency boarding for displaced pets, and reuniting them with their families once itโs safe.We deeply admire all the organizations, volunteers, and rescuers who have stepped up to support both humans and animals during this unimaginable crisis. Your compassion and dedication are truly inspiring.๐ฅ: NBC News ๐๐พ@globalstrays#globalstrays #palisades #fire #wildfire #prayforcalifornia #dogrescue #rescue

84 horses, 84 families. ๐ Last month, we held our free horse clinic in rural Nicaragua, and the turnout was greater than we expected. These horses are not just animals; they are essential lifelines for many of the families we serve. Weโre committed to continuing this life-saving work, but we need your help. Please consider donating today. Together, we can change lives, one horse at a time. ๐๐ด๐ซ

Did you know: 60% of pets today are considered overweight or obese! ๐ฑ And as an actively practicing integrative vet, Dr. Zac sees the health consequences of excess weight on a pet every dayโobesity is one of the biggest risks to your petโs long-term comfort and well-being ๐ The good news? Weight is one of the few factors pet guardians have almost complete control over.
Today, on National Pet Obesity Awareness Day, weโre revealing 3 simple ways to prevent pet obesity:
1๏ธโฃ Work with your vet to calculate your petโs specific daily nutritional and caloric needs.
2๏ธโฃ Stick to scheduled meal times with pre-measured portion sizesโonce or twice daily meals are both safe options.
3๏ธโฃ Keep them active! ๐๐ Regular exercise is key for both cats and dogs regardless of age or weight.
Got questions? Drop them in the comments! Letโs keep our pets happy and as healthy as can be! ๐ช๐ถ๐ฑ
