Don't forget hydration in winter! 💧

Indoor heating dehydrates pets just like summer heat. Ensure fresh water is always available. Check outdoor bowls for ice.

Signs of dehydration: dry gums, sunken eyes, lethargy, poor skin elasticity.

Try room-temperature water or a fountain to encourage drinking.

Holiday parties can be overwhelming for pets! 🏠

Some pets love the excitement; others need quiet space.

Help anxious pets by creating a calm retreat with their bed, toys, and water. Maintain routines. Consider calming supplements or pheromone diffusers.

Watch for signs of stress: hiding, panting, appetite loss, aggression.

If your pet struggles with severe anxiety, we can discuss medication options.

Holiday feasts smell amazing — but they can be dangerous for pets! 🍽️

Dangerous foods include chocolate, xylitol, grapes, raisins, onions, garlic, cooked bones, alcohol, and unbaked yeast dough.

Even small amounts can be life-threatening. Keep human food out of reach and remind guests not to share.

Winter is here, and it's the perfect time for a wellness check-up! ❄️

Cold weather can amplify arthritis and joint pain. Indoor heating dries out skin leading to itchy skin and discomfort.

Our winter wellness exams are comprehensive and are the first step in ensuring your pet is comfortable all season long.

Don't let winter slow your pet down. Schedule your winter wellness visit today!

Holidays disrupt routines, causing pet anxiety!

Maintain regular feeding and exercise schedules. Create a quiet retreat space away from guests. Use calming pheromone diffusers before parties.

Never force shy pets to interact with visitors. Watch for stress signs: hiding, decreased appetite, or bathroom accidents. We can help with anxiety management strategies!
