Summer adventures often mean new places for our pets–from hotels and vacation rentals to visiting friends and family.
Before letting your pet explore, take a few minutes to pet-proof the space:
✔️ Check for unsecured medications, cleaning products, and food
✔️ Inspect balconies, decks, and fences for escape risks
✔️ Secure electrical cords and small objects that could be chewed or swallowed
✔️ Locate exits and keep doors closed when possible
✔️ Bring familiar items like beds, toys, and food bowls to help reduce stress
Remember, a space that's safe for people isn't always safe for pets. A quick walkthrough can help prevent accidents and make your trip more enjoyable for everyone.

As temperatures rise, so does the risk of heatstroke in pets. Unlike people, pets have limited ways to cool themselves, making them especially vulnerable during warm weather and exercise.
Knowing the warning signs and acting quickly can help protect your pet from a life-threatening emergency.
If your pet is excessively panting, weak, vomiting, collapsing, or showing other signs of overheating, contact your veterinarian or an emergency veterinary hospital immediately.

This pup took the game of hacky sack a little too seriously and decided to keep it all to himself. 😅
Fortunately, our team was able to use an endoscope to retrieve it without surgery, ending this game of keep-away once and for all.
The verdict?
Hacky sacks: 0
Endoscope: 1
