Are your pets on year-round tick prevention? 🧐 January is supposed to be cold, but sometimes we get these warmer days (that ticks love)! Make sure your pets and family are protected from Lyme and other tick borne diseases all year!

Happy New Years from the gang here at Hastings Veterinary Hospital.
Our good friend K4Paws Dallas has been recalled. She will be moving on to the next steps in her training to become a service dog.

We are wishing sweet Dallas best of luck in her new adventure and hope we get to hear about how she is helping someone.

Every Child Matters

Every child deserves the sun,
to feel its warmth upon their skin,
to run freely in the fields
where the earth remembers their name.

Every child deserves a song,
sung by ancestors in the wind,
a heartbeat of the drum
that tells them: you belong.

Every child deserves the dance,
feet wrapped in moccasins,
moving in circles of tradition,
their laughter echoing
like rivers that never end.

Every child deserves love,
arms that hold,
voices that soothe,
a place where tears are healed
and dreams are given wings.

For they are the fire yet to rise,
the guardians yet to grow,
the blossoms of tomorrow’s meadow—
and every child matters,
every single one.

It's officially summer, and while we love the sunshine, it’s important to remember that hot weather can be dangerous for our pets.

🚫 Never leave your pet in a parked car, even for a few minutes. On a warm day, the temperature inside a vehicle can soar to deadly levels in just moments—even with the windows cracked. If you see a pet in a hot car in distress, call 911.

Signs of heatstroke in pets include excessive panting or drooling, lethargy or confusion, and rapid heartbeat. If you think your pet has heatstroke, take them to your veterinarian immediately.

Help spread the word! Share this post to keep our furry friends safe all summer long.
