☀️🐾 Hello, Summer! 🐾☀️

Tomorrow is the first day of summer, it is finally here, and that means more sunshine, outdoor adventures, and time spent making memories with our pets! 🌻🐶🐱

As temperatures rise, don’t forget to keep your furry family members safe while enjoying the season:

💧 Always provide plenty of fresh water
🌳 Avoid long walks during the hottest parts of the day
🔥 Never leave pets in a parked vehicle — even for a minute
🐾 Watch hot pavement temperatures to protect sensitive paw pads
🦟 Stay current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention
🏖️ Bring pets along for safe summer fun like hikes, lake days, camping trips, or backyard BBQs
😎 Make sure pets have access to shade and cool resting areas

Signs of heat exhaustion can include excessive panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, or collapse. If you notice these symptoms, seek veterinary care immediately.

We hope you and your pets have a safe, healthy, and adventure-filled summer season! ☀️❤️🐾

🌿 Wellness Wednesday: Calf Scours 🐄

Calf scours is a common but potentially serious condition that causes diarrhea in young calves. It can be caused by viruses, bacteria, parasites, poor nutrition, or environmental stress. The biggest concern isn't just the diarrhea itself—it's the rapid dehydration and loss of electrolytes that can quickly become life-threatening if left untreated.

Early recognition and prompt treatment are key to helping calves recover and continue growing strong and healthy.

Check out our graphic to learn more about the causes, signs, and prevention of calf scours!

Noise aversion in pets is more common than many owners realize—especially during fireworks, thunderstorms, or other loud, unpredictable sounds. What may sound like background noise to us can feel overwhelming and frightening to our pets.

Signs can include pacing, trembling, hiding, panting, drooling, barking or meowing excessively, or trying to escape. The good news is there are ways to help—ranging from safe space setup and calming aids to veterinary-supported anxiety management plans.

If your pet struggles with noise sensitivity, talk with us before the next big storm or holiday. We can help you build a plan that keeps them more comfortable and safe.

🐐✨ Pet of the Week: Delilah! ✨🐐

Oh, Delilah… when life gives you the opportunity to make a grand escape and turn the entire hay bale into your own personal luxury mattress… you absolutely take the nap. 😴🌾

This queen knows how to live her best life—soft hay, sunshine, and zero regrets. Delilah reminds us all that sometimes the best thing you can do is slow down, get comfy, and enjoy the moment.

We’d say she’s hard at work, but clearly she’s mastered the art of relaxation instead! 💛

Thanks, Delilah, for showing us how to truly rest in style.

☀️ Heat Stroke in Pets is a Serious Emergency ☀️

As temperatures rise, our pets are at risk for dangerous overheating—especially brachycephalic breeds (like Bulldogs and Pugs), senior pets, overweight pets, and those with heart or breathing issues.

Signs of heat stroke can include:
🐾 Excessive panting
🐾 Drooling
🐾 Weakness or collapse
🐾 Vomiting or diarrhea
🐾 Bright red gums
🐾 Difficulty breathing
🐾 Lethargy or disorientation

How to help prevent heat stroke:
💧 Always provide fresh water
🌳 Make sure pets have access to shade
🚫 Never leave pets in parked cars
🌅 Exercise during cooler morning/evening hours
❄️ Avoid hot pavement and excessive outdoor activity

If you suspect heat stroke, move your pet to a cool area immediately, offer cool (not ice-cold) water, and contact your veterinarian right away.

Heat stroke can become life-threatening very quickly—prevention is key! 💙
