Pet - Vet related events/observances for August
Immunization Awareness Month - let your vet help assess and educate you about the specific risks for your pets.
Itchy Pet Awareness Month - pets have allergies too, both seasonal and environmental. As about how we can provide relief for our furry family members. Sometimes as simple as antihistamines and sometimes utilizing drugs such as Apoquel or Cytopoint injections.
International Assistance Dog Week - help us celebrate and give thanks for those who help those who need companion animal assistance.
National Check the Chip Day - August 15th - microchips help get lost and stolen pets home safely. Please ask your veterinarian about getting one placed and registration. Placement is extremely well tolerated and can easily be done during a routine appointment. Registration takes less than 5 minutes.
National Bring Your Cat to the Vet Day - August 22nd - remember that cats need care too. Legally, every cat needs to be vaccinated for Rabies. Just like their human and canine counterparts, they are susceptible to aging changes and respective diseases. "Prevention is key"
