🐾 Myth-Busting Monday!

You can absolutely train a cat! With patience, treats, and positive reinforcement, many cats can learn tricks, respond to commands, or even walk on a leash. 🐾

Cats are smart - and sometimes stubborn - but training is possible (and fun)!

😸 Have you trained your cat? Drop a photo or tell us what they’ve learned in the comments!

🥣 How much should I feed my pet?

It’s not one-size-fits-all! Age, size, and activity level all play a role.

Start with the label, but check in with us for a personalized feeding plan to help your pet stay healthy and at their ideal weight. 🐾

If cats could text you from the vet...

📱 “Please advise: I am being held against my will.”
📱 "Knocked a jar off the counter to protest this betrayal. 10/10 would do it again."
📱 “Plotting revenge. But also kind of enjoyed the attention.”

🐾 Myth-Busting Monday!

While tail wags can mean excitement or friendliness, they can also signal stress, uncertainty, or even a warning. It all depends on the speed, height, and stiffness of the wag - and the rest of the dog’s body language.

A loose, wiggly wag? Probably happy.
A stiff, high tail with fast wagging? That might mean tension.
Low and slow? Possibly nervous.

👀 Always read the full picture before approaching a dog, especially one you don’t know!

🚫🐱 Why is my cat avoiding the litter box?
It could be a dirty box, stress, or even a medical issue like a UTI. Always rule out health concerns first, then make sure the box is clean, quiet, and filled with litter your cat likes!

There have been a few cyanobacteria blooms in the area. Please make sure to check the water before going swimming or letting your dog have a drink! Cyanobacteria is highly toxic and can be fatal for our pets!

Things to watch for if your dog comes in contact with blue-green algae:

1️⃣ Vomiting or diarrhea
2️⃣ Weakness or tremors
3️⃣ Trouble breathing

If your dog has been near algae-covered water and shows any of these signs, seek veterinary care immediately. Stay safe and avoid still or scummy water this summer! 💧

🏇 Is Your Horse Off Their Game?

Not jumping like they used to? Hard to keep weight on? Just not quite themselves?
Gastric ulcers might be the blame - and they're more common than you think.

A gastroscopy gives us a clear answer - it’s the only way to know for sure if your horse has gastric ulcers and how severe they are, so we can treat them appropriately before they cause further issues.

Now through July 31st, if ulcers are diagnosed and treatment is recommended, you’ll receive:

✅ 3 FREE GastroGard syringes
✅ A tub of Equitop Pronutrin to support healing
🎯 Help your horse feel and perform their best.

📞 Call us today to book their gastroscopy appointment!

💊 Time for a Refill? Let’s get ahead of the game!

To make sure your pet’s medications are ready when you need them, we kindly ask for 24 - 48 hours notice on all refill requests.

This gives our team time to review, prepare, and ensure everything is accurate for your pet. 🐾

Thanks for helping us keep your pet’s care running smoothly!

Some pups simply enjoy the texture or taste. As long as it’s not excessive and they’re otherwise healthy, it’s nothing to worry about!

🎁3 FREE GastroGard syringes + a tub of Equitop Pronutrin when ulcers are diagnosed and treated.
