🌈🐾 August 28 is Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day.

Some pets stay with us for a season.

Others stay with us for a lifetime...
..and all of them leave paw prints on our hearts forever.

Today, we honor the companions who greeted us at the door, curled up beside us after a long day, celebrated our happiest moments, and quietly comforted us through our hardest ones.

The love we share with our pets never truly ends. It lives on in the routines we still remember, the photos we can't help but smile at, the toys we can't quite put away, and the countless memories that make us laugh through the tears.

As a veterinary team, we know saying goodbye is one of the hardest parts of loving a pet. It's also one of the greatest privileges to have known a love so deep that their absence is still felt.

Today, we invite you to take a moment to remember the pets who helped shape your life. Whether they crossed the Rainbow Bridge recently or many years ago, they'll always be part of your story.

Until we meet again. ❤️🌈

Not necessarily! All suspicious lumps and bumps should be assessed to determine if they are benign or malignant. Cancerous dermal tumors may be localized and treated to prevent internal spreading. Bring your dog in for a non-invasive HT Vista scan if you notice lumps and bumps. In fewer than 5 minutes we can determine if your dog’s lump needs treatment.

📚🐾 Back to School... Is Your Pet Ready for the New Semester?

While the kids are getting ready for class, it's the perfect time to make sure your pet is ready for the season ahead, too!

Think of this as your pet's Back-to-School Report Card:

✅ Vaccines up to date
✅ Flea, tick, and heartworm prevention current
✅ Annual wellness exam completed
✅ Dental health checked
✅ Microchip information up to date
✅ Excellent attendance at veterinary visits

Just like routine checkups help children stay healthy and ready to learn, preventive veterinary care helps your pet stay happy, healthy, and ready for every adventure the season brings.

If your pet has a few boxes left unchecked, don't worry—there's still time to get them caught up before the busy fall season begins.

After all, the best students are the ones who come prepared... and we think your pet deserves an A+ in health! 🎓🐶🐱

😂🐾 It's time to lovingly roast our pets...

We'll go first.

🐶 "He's lucky he's cute because he's definitely not helping with the mortgage."

A few more we've heard over the years...

🐱 "She acts like she's never been fed... immediately after finishing breakfast."

🐶 "He has two hobbies: shedding and supervising."

🐱 "She screams until I fill the food bowl... then walks away."

🐶 "He'll bark at a leaf but welcome the delivery driver like an old friend."

🐱 "She knocked it off the counter just to see what would happen."

🐶 "His recall is excellent... unless there's literally anything more interesting."

🐱 "She pays rent exclusively in attitude."

🐶 "He's an emotional support animal... for himself."

🐾 Your turn... Roast your pet in one sentence. Keep it playful—we can't wait to hear what your furry little freeloaders have been up to. 😂

🐾 Has your pet become your full-time shadow this summer? They may notice when your routine changes.

As summer comes to an end and families head back to school, work, and their regular schedules, many pets suddenly find themselves spending more time home alone.

For some dogs—and even some cats—that transition can be stressful.

Signs of separation anxiety or stress may include:
🐶 Excessive barking or vocalizing
🚪 Scratching at doors or windows
🛋️ Destructive chewing or digging
💧 Accidents in the house
🐾 Pacing, panting, or following you everywhere when you're home

The good news? A little preparation now can make the transition much easier.

Here are a few ways to help:
✔️ Start adjusting your pet's routine gradually before schedules change.
✔️ Increase daily exercise to help burn off excess energy.
✔️ Provide puzzle toys, treat dispensers, or other enrichment activities while you're away.
✔️ Practice short departures to help your pet build confidence being alone.

If your pet experiences severe anxiety or their behavior suddenly changes, don't assume they'll "grow out of it." Separation anxiety is a real behavioral condition, and we're here to help. Together, we can discuss strategies and treatment options to help your pet feel more relaxed and confident.

A smooth transition back to routine starts with a little planning—and a lot of patience. ❤️

🐾 August is the perfect time to catch up on your pet's vaccines.

As summer winds down, it's a great reminder to make sure your pet is protected for the months ahead. Whether your pet is due for a booster or has fallen behind on their vaccination schedule, now is the perfect time to get back on track.

Vaccinations help protect your pet from serious, preventable diseases and are one of the simplest ways to support a long, healthy life.

If you're not sure what's due, our team is happy to review your pet's vaccination history and help you create a plan. 💙
