Zoinks! It's Scooby-Doo Day! 🐾🕵️‍♂️

Ruh-roh! Did you know today we celebrate everyone's favorite mystery-solving Great Dane? We love how Scooby and the gang always give those pesky "monsters" (who always turn out to be humans in disguise) another chance!

In honor of Scooby, here are some fun facts about Great Danes:
🦴 They're known as gentle giants
🍖 They have huge appetites (just like Scooby!)
❤️ They're incredibly loyal to their humans

Does your pet have any Scooby-like qualities? Maybe they're always hungry, super brave, or even a bit of a scaredy-cat? Share your pet's Scooby-esque traits in the comments!

Remember, whether your pet is as big as Scooby or as small as Scrappy, we're here to keep them happy, healthy, and ready for their next adventure!

National Day of Encouragement: Take That First Step! 🐾

"Nothing is impossible when you put one foot in front of the other and take a step." This applies to our furry friends too!

Whether it's helping a rescue pet adjust to a new home, supporting an older pet through physical therapy, or cheering on a puppy learning new tricks - every journey begins with a single step.

Today, we encourage you to:
- Celebrate your pet's progress, no matter how small
- Take on a new challenge with your furry companion
- Offer words of support to fellow pet parents

Purr-fect news: It's Happy Cat Month! 😺🎉

September is all about celebrating our feline friends – those adorable, sometimes aloof, always entertaining companions who have stolen our hearts (and probably our favorite chair).

Whether your cat is a playful kitten, a dignified senior, or somewhere in between, this month is the perfect time to show them some extra love. How about a new toy, a cozy bed, or just some extra cuddles?

Don't forget about the cats still waiting for their forever homes! Consider supporting your local shelter or maybe even adopting a new furry friend.

Share a pic of your cat in their happiest moment in the comments. Let's spread the joy of Happy Cat Month!

Quality eats for quality lives! 🌟 Choosing the right food for your pet isn't just about taste—it's about supporting their health, energy, and happiness. Optimal nutrition promotes longevity, boosts immunity, and enhances coat shine. Treat your pet to the best for a healthier, happier life! 🐾

For the month of September, when you bring your pet in for a mobility assessment they will receive their first cold laser therapy session for free! And if you purchase a package of 5 laser sessions, you will receive 10% off! 🐾🐶🐱

Photobiomodulation, commonly called therapeutic or “cold” laser emits a low level intensity beam of infrared light that can pe*****te through the skin into the joint or muscle below without overheating or cutting the tissue. When the light enters your pet’s cells, it triggers a reaction which increases rate of healing, opens blood vessels to increase blood flow to the treated area, decreases inflammation, and controls pain through the release of endorphins.

Laser therapy can be used to treat muscle strains, joint pain, orthopedic and neurological injuries, and even wounds and skin conditions. It is a wonderful Modality that is useful in a wide range of cases, and many clients will attest to its immediate and lasting benefits.

Contact us to book your pet in for their mobility assessment today! 🐶🐱🐾
