🐾✈️ Pet Travel Tips From Your Furry Co-Pilots 🐱🚗

🐶 Dog says:
“Please don’t wait until the night before the trip to see if I fit in my harness anymore. I’ve been stress eating treats.”

🐱 Cat says:
“If you’re taking me somewhere, I demand a carrier with soft blankets and absolutely ZERO loud country music.”

🐶 Dog says:
“Pack my snacks, water bowl, leash, and favorite toy. Emotional support squeaky dinosaur = essential travel item.”

🐱 Cat says:
“Bring my litter box. I am not ‘holding it’ for 6 hours just because you forgot.”

🐶 Dog says:
“Roll the windows down a little… not enough for me to attempt a dramatic movie-style escape.”

🐱 Cat says:
“Please make sure my microchip and tags are updated. If I vanish at a rest stop, I will absolutely join another family.”

🐶 Dog says:
“Take breaks so I can stretch my legs and sniff every blade of grass in Tennessee.”

🐱 Cat says:
“And NEVER leave us in a hot car. We overheat much faster than humans!”

🐾 Before your summer adventures, make sure your pets are up to date on vaccines, heartworm prevention, and flea/tick protection so everyone can travel safely! ☀️🚙

🚨 Holiday Closure Reminder 🚨
Our office will be CLOSED on Monday, May 25 so our team can spend Memorial Day with their families. 🇺🇸
🐾 Please make sure to pick up any needed food or medication refills for your pets by Saturday.
🎆 Fireworks season is also approaching! If your pet struggles with anxiety during fireworks, please call us ahead of time to request medication. Some pets may require an exam if they have not been seen recently.

🌞🐾 Adventure season is HERE! 🐾🌲
Road trips, lake days, hiking trails… your pet wants in on every moment!
But before your furry sidekick joins the fun, let’s make sure they’re protected for the journey ahead. 🐶💛
The best way to keep your canine companion safe is by staying up-to-date on vaccines and consistent with flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.
Because nothing ruins an adventure faster than unwanted hitchhikers (we’re looking at you, ticks 👀) or preventable illness.
📅 Don’t let your pup miss out on the memories—schedule their appointment today and keep them adventure-ready all season long!

Who doesn't love 2 puppies in a stroller?! These two stopped in for there next round of puppy vaccines.

Did you know that puppies require a series for 4 to 5 vaccines to be protected against viruses like distemper and parvo. Both viruses are common in our area.
