Valentine here — Happy International Friendship Day (Pet Edition)!
July 30 is all about celebrating the wonderful friendships we share with our animal family members. Whether they greet you at the door, curl up beside you after a long day, or always know when you need a snuggle, our pets show us what true friendship looks like every day.
How you can celebrate today:
- Carve out extra bonding time — longer walks, extra play, or cozy cuddles.
- Treat them to a healthy snack, a homemade treat, or a new enrichment toy.
- Let them join in an activity they usually miss — picnic, movie night, or a relaxing drive.
What shelters and clinics are doing:
- Sharing heartwarming photos of human‑animal friendships to inspire others.
- Reminding pet parents that keeping up with wellness checks and vaccinations is one of the best ways to be a true friend to your pet.
- Saying thank you to veterinary staff and shelter volunteers who care for animals every day.
A special shoutout to our amazing veterinary team at East Coast Animal Hospital — Dr. T and his entire staff — we appreciate your compassion and dedication!
