🦟 Summer Isn't Over Yet!

Fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes can still be active while temperatures remain above freezing and during warmer days. Even as temperatures begin to cool, parasite activity can continue.

Keep your pets protected with consistent parasite prevention throughout the season. 🐾

🐾 What’s Your Pet’s Itch Level? 🐶🐱

Is your pet scratching, licking, or chewing more than usual? Let’s play! 👇

A. 🐾 A few scratches here and there seems normal
B. 🐾 Scratching more often, licking paws, or rubbing on things
C. 🐾 Constant itching, red skin, hair loss, sores, or keeping you up at night

If you picked B or C, it may be time to have your pet checked out. Itching can be caused by allergies, parasites, infections, or other skin concerns and your veterinary team can help find the cause and provide relief. 💙

Comment your pet’s itch level: A, B, or C! 🐾

Grapes, raisins, and even currants can be more dangerous to dogs than most pet parents realize. Even only a few grapes have been linked to sudden kidney failure that may not show up for days, and homegrown or organic grapes carry the same risk.

Veterinary medicine hasn't pinpointed why some dogs react and others don't, or confirmed what makes grapes so toxic, which is exactly why any known ingestion is treated as a potential emergency, not just the large ones.

If your dog gets into grapes, raisins, currants, or anything made with them, call or chat with our veterinary professionals at 800-213-6680.
