August is National Immunization Awareness Month! Just like us, it’s important for our pets to stay on top of their vaccines and immunizations.

Giving your pets their regular vaccinations is the key to a long and healthy life. Regardless of whether you keep your dog inside or not, vaccines are essential in ensuring your pet’s health.

Many contagious diseases can be airborne, meaning your pet could contract a disease through an open window. Pets are also prone to slipping out of the house on occasion, which could lead to risk of disease.

Additionally, places you may frequently visit such as boarding kennels, dog parks and grooming salons are high-risk environments.

Making sure your pet is vaccinated before visiting such places can give you peace of mind. Remember that vaccinations can take a few days to a few weeks before becoming effective – check with your vet before taking your recently vaccinated pet to any of these places!

Today is International Cat Day! 🐱🐱🐱

Here are some ways to raise awareness for cats:

Adopt: Consider adopting a cat from a shelter or rescue organization instead of shopping. Adopting a cat makes room for another animal in need.

Support brands: Buy products from companies that support animal welfare organizations.

Volunteer and donate: Donate or volunteer your time to local animal shelters and rescue groups.

Use social media: Use social media platforms to raise awareness about animal welfare and cat adoption.

❗️ TRIGGER WARNING ❗️

PYOMETRA - One of the most common emergencies is a condition called pyometra. As intact female dogs age, the hormones during each heat cycle change the uterus. These changes make the uterus especially prone to developing infection and quite poor at fighting off infection.

The best and only prevention for pyometra is to have your dog SPAYED. Spaying removes the hormonal stimulation that causes both heat cycles and the uterine changes that allow pyometra to happen.

The photo on the left is a normal size uterus, the one on the right is a pyometra.

🐾Do you have a hairy Houdini? 🐾
Repeat attempts to keep your pet confined to the yard may be frustrating, but every escape opens up the possibility of TRAGIC CONSEQUENCES.

• SO WHY DOES MY DOG ESCAPE? •

✨Social isolation / Frustration ✨
Your dog may be escaping because they are bored and lonely, especially if:
•They are left alone for long periods of time without opportunities for interaction with you.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
✨Expand your dog's world and increasing their "people time" in the following ways✨
•Walk your dog daily.
•Teach your dog to fetch a ball or Frisbee™

•SEXUAL ROAMING•
✨Dogs become sexually mature at around 6 months of age & have a strong drive to seek out females if intact.✨
RECOMMENDATIONS:
•Have your dogs spayed/neutered.

AND HERE ARE A FEW MORE OTHER FACTORS WHY YOUR DOG MIGHT BE ESCAPING:
•Fears and phobias
•Separation anxiety

🐾 May 20th is National Rescue Dog Day🐾

National Rescue Dog Day was founded by Lisa Wiehebrink of Tails That Teach to bring awareness to the countless number of amazing dogs in shelters waiting to be adopted, to promote humane education for young children, and to encourage spay/neuter. The day was inspired by Cooper (pictured below) who was rescued in 2009 and now the main character in the Tails That Teach book series that teach children how to be and kind and gentle to their pets.

How to observe:
Get involved in the lives of rescue dogs! There are a variety of ways to share the puppy love…

ADOPT: If there is room in your life for a dog, consider adopting and giving one a forever home.

FOSTER: Many dogs abandoned to shelters benefit from socialization, or would just thrive better away from the shelter environment. Others may be in need of some medical care or rehabilitation in a home setting before an adoption can take place.

HELP A SHELTER: Shelters always need support. In addition to financial donations, shelters have a list of much needed items such as blankets, toys, treats, and leashes. You can also host a bake sale, car wash, or other event to raise funds for the shelter.

VOLUNTEER: Help out at your local shelter. Taking dogs for walks, grooming, and giving them plenty of affection improves their socialization.

SPAY/NEUTER: Be responsible for your pets. Overpopulation is the number one reason shelters exist.

EDUCATE: Teach young children the importance of kindness, unconditional love, and responsible care of all animals.

May is National Chip Your Pet Month, which serves as an important reminder to have your pets microchipped if you haven’t already. Microchips help increase the chance of being reunited with lost pets. 🐾

•Benefits of Microchips•
Microchips offer another way for other people to contact you if they find your lost pets. Although your pets might wear collars with ID tags, these collars can fall off or break. Having a microchip means that your pets can be brought to a clinic or shelter that has the right scanning device for these implants.

•Where to Get Microchips•
Veterinary clinics usually provide microchipping services and Laredo Animal Care Services 5202 Maher Ave. Expect to pay a small fee.

Microchips offer important benefits, but they shouldn’t replace ID tags. Making sure that your pets have both ID tags and microchips gives them the best chance of being returned to you if they get lost.

🌷🐾Happy National Dog Mom’s Day🐾🌷

A day for all pup-loving women across the country to celebrate their special kind of motherhood.

We adopt them as puppies, adolescents, or fully mature with a bit of baggage, and yet, we find common ground, a connection, and a bond women share. When they humor us, charm us or even when they are naughty, they are like any other child to us.

Celebrate by making sure to get some extra cuddles. Bake up some yummy homemade puppy treats. Plan for some double pampering – a pedicure for you and paws for the puppers .

Then take an extra special selfie with your fur baby to mark the occasion, and post below.
