Regular grooming isn’t just about looks — it's preventive healthcare!

Brushing prevents painful mats, distributes natural oils, and lets you check for lumps or skin issues. Nail trims prevent joint problems. Make grooming a bonding experience with treats and praise.

Cold weather can amplify aches and pains associated with arthritis!

Help your pet stay comfortable with cushioned beds, gentle exercise to maintain muscle tone, and ramps instead of stairs.

Swimming is excellent low-impact exercise. Weight management is crucial — extra pounds mean extra joint stress.

Ask us about supplements and pain management options to keep your pet moving comfortably!

November brings unique seasonal dangers! Antifreeze tastes sweet but is deadly — even small amounts can cause kidney failure.

Fall mushrooms pop up in yards after rain. Holiday decorations like potpourri and essential oil diffusers can be toxic. Store chemicals securely, check your yard daily, and pet-proof your holiday décor.

With Thanksgiving approaching, let's keep your pets safe from holiday hazards!

Turkey bones can splinter and cause serious injuries. Rich, fatty foods may trigger pancreatitis. Onions, garlic, grapes, and chocolate are toxic.

Create a pet-safe celebration by setting aside plain, cooked turkey (no skin!) as a special treat.

Your furry family members can enjoy the holiday safely!

Did you know that we can see livestock in the office at Mount Rock Animal Hospital? If you can fit your goat, sheep, pig, calf, or mini horse in your personal vehicle, we can see them at the hospital!

Spike the goat came to see us last week, and he arrived in style with his own personal suite in the back of his owner's truck!

Our hospital team had a lovely Halloween Potluck on Friday complete with “devil”ed eggs, a sandwich platter with skull-shaped rolls, and a graveyard cake.

Our resident cake boss even took the time to decorate the gravestones with preventable ailments that we are working to help eliminate in our patients.

All were as fun to look at as they were to eat!

Happy National Cat Day! Today we celebrate the cats who choose us, train us, and somehow convince us that 4 AM is an acceptable breakfast time. From lap warmers to independent spirits, from chatty companions to silent observers - every cat brings their own special brand of magic to their families. What makes your cat wonderfully unique?

As pets age, medications often become part of daily routines. Create systems that work: pill organizers for multiple medications, smartphone reminders for dosing times, treat-dispensing methods for difficult pill-takers, and clear communication with all family members about who's responsible for what. Consistency in medication timing can significantly improve effectiveness!
