'The Chimp Who Loved Me' Available at All Three Clinics

We have copies of 'The Chimp Who Loved Me' by our very own Annie Greer and Tim Vandehey available at all three of our clinics. 'The Chimp Who Loved Me' is a collection of true stories from the life and times of Annie Greer, a veterinary chiropractitioner, animal healer, radio host, speaker, farmer's wife and all-around magnet for bizarre animal behavior. When Annie and Tim Vandehey, a professional writer, met in 2006 and began talking about Annie's endless trove of strange and funny tales, a book was born. Come into any of our three clinics today and pick up a copy of 'The Chimp Who Loved Me' and 20% of the proceeds will go to the ASPCA! View the video of the book trailer below!

Humidity Warnings

This has been one of the hottest summers in a long time, so it’s important to remember that we’re not the only ones who feel hot. Our pets do too! When you’re headed out for the day, make sure you leave the air conditioning running for your pet, and leave them plenty of cold water to drink throughout the day. Also, it’s important to avoid taking your pet for walks in the hottest parts of the day, so that they don’t get too overheated!

Pets In Cars

During the hot, summer months, please consider the safety of your pet when you take them for a ride in the car. Remember that even if you’re planning on running into a store for just a minute, it’s too dangerous to leave your pet in the car. Just a few minutes in a car during the summer months can raise the temperature to unbearable levels. Exposure to such extreme heat can result in heatstroke, which can cause brain damage or even death. Leave your pets at home in the air conditioning this summer if it gets too hot.

June is Social PETworking Month

June is Social PETworking Month! This is a month designated to help pair families with homeless pets. The campaign allows Facebook, MySpace and Twitter addicts to put their hours online to good use by advertising adoptable pets to their networks to help get them seen and into loving homes. So if you know of any pets in need of good homes, take to Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and get the word out this June!

Pets & Easter Chocolate

Chocolate is delicious to most of us, but for your pet, it's a different story. Chocolate can contain high amounts of fat and methylxanthines (a caffeine-like ingredient), which can cause flu-like symptoms in your pet if eaten. Some of these symptoms could include vomiting and diarrhea, panting, excessive thirst and urination, seizures and in severe cases it can be fatal. Avoid endangering the life of your pet...give them pet-safe treats instead!
