Heartworm disease, spread by mosquitoes, damages the heart and lungs and can cause serious, lasting illness in dogs. Year-round prevention and annual testing are the safest and most effective ways to protect your pet.

Discovering Heartworm Disease in Dog's

Pet birds - from parakeets to finches - need proper nutrition, enrichment, and safe housing to stay healthy and happy. Because they hide illness well, any change in behavior should prompt immediate veterinary attention.

The Five Most Common Pet Birds and What It Takes to Care for Them

Storms and hurricanes can separate pets from their families, making emergency planning essential. Keep medical records accessible, ensure microchipping, and maintain a stocked pet emergency kit with basic supplies, food, and water.

Including Your Pets in Disaster Preparedness

Overgrooming often appears as broken, fuzzy hairs - especially on the belly and inner thighs - and can stem from medical issues like parasites, allergies, or endocrine disease. Stress can also be a major trigger, but with proper diagnosis, most cases resolve successfully.

Overgrooming in Cats

Intervertebral Disc Disease causes spinal pain and mobility issues, especially in long-backed breeds, and requires prompt veterinary attention. With proper diagnosis, treatment, and careful home support, your involvement is key to helping your pet recover comfortably.
