Welcome to our all new blog! We hope you will enjoy our posts and find them both informative and entertaining. This blog gives us just one more opportunity to connect with those people who share the same love of animals that we do.

As I look out the window and see parts of the grass and sidewalk that we have not seen in months; I think about how our pets will just be “itching” to get outside again in the next few weeks. The sun is setting later and we have already had a few days that have been warm enough to open our windows and allow us all a taste of what’s to come. With the official start spring right around the corner and (hopefully) following that some consistent warm weather – we are happy to let everyone know we now carry the first and only chewable that kills both fleas and ticks for dogs. It is called Nexgard and is a once monthly chewable treat that begins working within 24 hours. Unlike topical treatments, that can be oily, messy, and your dog’s coat cannot get wet for days surrounding application; dogs can go swimming or get a bath immediately after eating the chew. Nexgard does not prevent against heartworm disease so, as always, we recommend keeping your dog on heartworm prevention monthly. The good news is that, for a limited time, if you purchase a 6 month supply of Nexgard plus a 12 month supply of Heartgard, there is a $50 mail-in rebate offer!
