💊 Medication Refill Reminder! 🐾

Just a friendly reminder that we kindly request 24–48 hours’ notice for medication refills. This includes prescription requests placed through Chewy and Vetsource as well!

We do our best to approve requests as they come in, but sometimes there can be delays depending on our schedule or the team member's availability.

Planning ahead helps make sure your pet’s medications are ready when you need them! 🐶🐱💙

Thank you for your understanding and for helping us keep things running smoothly! 😊

🍫 Happy World Chocolate Day! 🍫

While we're celebrating one of our favorite sweet treats, it's also the perfect time to remember that chocolate is toxic to both dogs and cats.

Chocolate contains theobromine and caffeine, which pets can't process the way we do. Even small amounts can lead to serious illness, especially dark chocolate and baking chocolate.

🐾 Signs of chocolate toxicity may include:
• Vomiting or diarrhea
• Restlessness or hyperactivity
• Tremors
• Increased heart rate
• Seizures

If you think your pet has eaten chocolate, don't wait for symptoms to appear. Contact your veterinarian or an emergency veterinary hospital right away. Prompt treatment can make all the difference.

Enjoy your chocolate—but keep it safely out of paw's reach! ❤️🍫🐶🐱

☀️🔥 The heat is here — and our pets feel it too! 🐾

Heat waves can be dangerous for dogs and cats, and sometimes the signs that something is wrong can be subtle. If your pet seems off, is acting unusually tired, panting excessively, not eating, vomiting, having trouble walking, or just not acting like themselves… don’t wait. ❤️

Trust your instincts — you know your pet best. Contact us right away so we can help keep your furry family member safe.
