๐Ÿพ What's one thing your pet does that always makes you laugh, no matter how many hundreds of times you've seen it?

We'll go first: we've had patients who fully commit to hiding behind a curtain that clearly doesn't cover their entire body, fully convinced it's working. Drop your favorite quirky pet moment in the comments!

๐Ÿ“ž Call (256) 353-4339 or visit osborneanimalclinic.com to schedule.

๐Ÿ“š September is Rabies Awareness Month, and it's worth explaining why we take this vaccination so seriously: rabies is essentially 100% fatal once symptoms appear, in both animals and humans, and there is no treatment after that point. The vaccine is the only real protection.

In Alabama, rabies vaccination isn't optional or a suggestion โ€” it's required by state law for dogs and cats, and it protects not just your pet but your family and anyone your pet comes into contact with.

Not sure when your pet's rabies vaccine is due? Give us a call and we'll pull up your records. Consult your vet.

๐Ÿ‚ That's a wrap on August! This month we covered back-to-school routines, the real math behind flea and tick prevention, dental disease progression, and celebrated both International Cat Day and National Dog Day along the way.

As we head into September, cooler weather (eventually โ€” this is still Alabama) means more time outdoors, which is exactly the moment to make sure your pet's wellness and parasite prevention are actually current, not just assumed to be fine.

What would you like us to cover in September? Tell us in the comments!

๐Ÿพ As August winds down, we're reflecting on another season of first puppy visits, senior wellness checks, boarding stays for family vacations, and everything in between. Every single one of those appointments means something to us, even the routine ones.

What's been the highlight of your pet's summer? We'd genuinely love to hear it โ€” the good, the ridiculous, all of it.

Decatur, we've been your neighborhood vet since 1979 โ€” and we genuinely don't take that trust for granted after all these years. Wellness exams, vaccinations, dentistry, grooming, boarding, and Lucky Dog Daycare, all at one location, all delivered by a team that treats this work as more than a job.

If you're due for a visit, we'd love to see you and your pet soon.

๐Ÿฆท With fall approaching and school schedules about to fully lock in, it's a good window to knock out your pet's dental cleaning before calendars get busier with after-school activities and homework routines eating up every open evening.๐Ÿฆท

A professional cleaning does what home brushing can't reach โ€” the area below the gumline where the real disease progresses. Left unaddressed, it can lead to tooth loss and, eventually, bacteria affecting organs beyond the mouth.

Ask about scheduling a dental cleaning at your next visit.

๐Ÿพ Happy National Dog Day! ๐Ÿพ

Today is a good excuse to celebrate the dogs who make us laugh, keep us company, greet us like weโ€™ve been gone for a yearโ€ฆ and somehow always know when we have a snack. โค๏ธ

Give your dog an extra belly rub, a favorite treat, or a little more time together today. They give us so much loveโ€”today is all about giving some back!

๐Ÿ• Happy National Dog Day!

Whether your dog is a couch potato, a trail-running partner, or somewhere chaotically in between, today's the day to celebrate everything that makes them part of the family.

We're grateful for every dog who's walked through our doors since 1979 โ€” and every one we'll get to meet in the years ahead. Fifty-some years of tail wags in this lobby, and it genuinely never gets old.

Show us your dog in the comments โ€” we want to see them!

Water troughs, farm ponds, and slow-moving creeks can quickly become lethal during August heatwaves due to toxic blue-green algae blooms. These blooms often look like green pea soup, spilled paint, or a thick scum on the water's surface.

Ingesting even a small amount of contaminated water can cause severe, life-threatening liver or neurological toxicity in dogs, horses, and cattle alike. To protect your animals, ensure livestock troughs are regularly dumped, scrubbed, and kept free of stagnant buildup, and never let pets swim in or drink from scummy natural water.

If you suspect any of your animals have been exposed, rinse them immediately with clean water and seek emergency veterinary care right away.
