๐ฃ Today is National Pet Obesity Awareness Day!
A rotund Rover or Felix can be a cute, but just like humans, that extra layer for lovinโ can have some serious consequences.
Obesity leads to reduced life expectancy, diminished quality of life, chronic inflammation, orthopedic disease, kidney dysfunction, respiratory disorders, cancer, and more.
To give our pets the best life possible, we have to help them avoid packing a few extra pounds. If you have questions or concerns about your pet's weight, give us a call at 941-922-0756 to schedule an exam. We're here to help you determine how much food to feed, how much exercise to give, and keep your pet healthy!

Emergencies come in many forms: fires, hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, violent storms and even terrorism. In the event of extreme weather or a disaster, would you know what to do to protect your pet? Leaving pets out of evacuation plans can put pets, pet owners, and first responders in danger. Even if you try to create a safe place for them, pets left behind during a disaster are likely to be injured, lost, or worse. Be prepared: make a plan and prepare a disaster kit for your pet.

๐ฃ November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month!
If youโve been thinking about adding a four-legged-friend to your family, consider opening your home and your heart to an older dog or cat in need.๐
While small kittens and puppies may be adorable, older pets are just as loving and loyal as their younger counterparts. Not to mention, adopting a senior animal companion comes with some cool advantages:
๐พ Grown-up pets donโt require the constant monitoring and training that puppies and kittens do.
๐พ Many are already house-trained.
๐พ Since senior pets are fully grown, youโll be immediately aware of important information like personality type and grooming requirements, making it easier to choose the perfect pet for your family.
