The crackle and boom of fireworks can be a nightmare for our sensitive pups. 💔 As the 4th of July approaches, we're here to help you ensure your dog has a calm and safe holiday!

If your canine companion gets anxious during fireworks, remember to pick up their Sileo or other anti-anxiety medications from Green Forest Veterinary Hospital in advance. We want to make sure you have everything you need to keep them comfortable this summer!

A quick heads-up on our holiday schedule:
Our office will be closed on Friday, July 4th, and Saturday, July 5th. We'll be back bright and early on Monday, July 7th, to serve you and your beloved pets.

Wishing all our clients and their furry families a safe and peaceful Independence Day!

Leo is missing!!! Leo went missing in Sea Cliff, near the fire department on Roslyn & Maple Ave on November 2nd. He is 12 years old, neutered, very friendly and talkative. He unfortunately has no collar on and takes medication, so his mom Sarah would really like to have him home as soon as possible!!
Sea Cliff neighbors, please be on the lookout for Leo!

This adorable cream puff named Prince needs a home! His elderly owner passed away with no one to take over his care, and he's been in the streets since April of 2024. He's at least 12, maybe older, and so sweet! He’s quiet and loving, and purrs as soon as you talk to him. He'll be a devoted pet companion to anyone who is lucky enough to have him.
He'd be great with an older person who wants to be adored by a calm, sweet cat, or anyone who will pour love and adoration on this gorgeous boy. He was an only cat, so it might be best for him to remain that, but it's possible he may take to another pet as long as they are calm and sweet.
Please let us know if you want to visit with him and we’ll connect you to the guardian angel who is fostering him.
It's a tragedy when pets lose homes due to moves or illness. Please keep this in mind when taking in a pet ❤
Older animals make wonderful pets. Their love and devotion is not used up. On the contrary. They are so grateful for a second chance!

Today is Feline Leukemia Day, dedicated to raising awareness about the Feline Leukemia Virus.

If your cat is not vaccinated against FeLV, now is the time to make an appointment! Not only does getting your cat vaccinated help prevent them from getting sick, but it also helps stop the spread of the illness. Most vets recommend testing unvaccinated cats for FeLV, as well. It can take several years for symptoms to develop, but early treatment is important.

Did you know that July is National Pet Hydration Awareness Month?

Our four-legged friends are not as equipped to deal with extreme heat as we are; they lack sweat glands and rely on panting to stay cool. As a result, they’re very quick to overheat—and require a lot of water to stay healthy.

Remember to never leave your pets unsupervised in hot, poorly-ventilated areas in addition to being able to recognize the signs of dehydration!
