Tick vigilance doesn't end in fall! 🍁 In Minnesota, ticks can still be active in November. If it's over 30 degrees outside, ticks could be active and looking to hitch a ride! Regularly check your pets — some of their favorite hiding spots include ears, between toes, and around the neck. Stay informed to keep your furry friends safe! 🐾

Thanksgiving is a time for gratitude, good company, and great food, but not every holiday dish is safe for your pet. Foods like turkey skin, onions, garlic, grapes, raisins, and desserts containing xylitol can be toxic, while plain green beans, carrots, and pumpkin are safer options in moderation.

If your pet gets into something they shouldn’t, don’t wait for symptoms to appear, contact or visit us right away. Quick action can make all the difference. Keep the feast joyful and your pets safe this Thanksgiving!
