This morning we had to remove over 50 scam comments from our page. Please do not click any links, even if you are tagged in a comment.

We’re working to remove them as quickly as possible, but unfortunately several new ones tend to appear for every comment we delete.

Thank you to everyone who has been reporting them; it really does help!

⚠️ Parvo Alert for Pet Parents ⚠️

Over the past couple of weeks, our team has seen a noticeable increase in cases of canine parvovirus (parvo) in our community. Parvo is a highly contagious and potentially life-threatening virus that primarily affects puppies and unvaccinated dogs.

One important thing many people don’t realize is that parvovirus doesn’t just spread through contact with other dogs. The virus can live in the environment for years, surviving in soil, grass, sidewalks, and on surfaces. Dogs can become infected simply by sniffing, licking, or walking through contaminated areas - even if no other dogs are present.

The best protection against parvo is routine vaccination. If your puppy or dog is due (or overdue) for vaccines, we strongly encourage you to schedule an appointment with your veterinarian.

To help protect your pet:
• Make sure your dog is up to date on vaccinations
• Keep unvaccinated puppies and dogs out of public places such as dog parks, wildlife trails, pet stores, and other high-traffic pet areas
• Avoid contact with dogs whose vaccination status is unknown

Common signs of parvo include:
• Vomiting
• Diarrhea (often bloody)
• Lethargy
• Loss of appetite

If your dog shows any of these symptoms, please seek veterinary care immediately.

Staying proactive with vaccinations and being mindful of where unvaccinated pets go can help keep our pets and our community safe. 🐾
