During September, we want to recognize Animal Pain Awareness Month by teaching pet parents how to recognize signs of pain in cats and dogs.

You might think it’s funny, cute, or even gross that dogs sometimes scoot their behinds along the carpet or grass.

More than half of dogs and cats in the United States are classified as either overweight or obese. If you’re unsure whether your pet is maintaining a healthy weight, you can always ask your veterinarian to determine a healthy weight range for your pet based on species, breed, age, and size.

While our pets love to play outside in the pleasant weather, it’s important to keep an eye on their ears to make sure they stay healthy and free from bacterial and fungal infections – especially if they enjoy swimming and rolling around in the grass.

There’s almost nothing more stressful than losing a pet. In the event your pet escapes the yard or breaks off his leash, you’ll want him to have a microchip.
