Join us in celebrating Juneteenth!

Juneteenth commemorates the freedom of enslaved people in Texas—two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. Recognized as a federal holiday in 2021, Juneteenth is an important reminder of both freedom and the injustices faced by Black Americans, past and present. Today, we reflect, honor, and commit to the ongoing fight for equality and justice for African Americans in the United States.

Help us celebrate Pride Month with these featured pieces of art from LGBTQ+ artists!

Summer is a wonderful time to be outdoors with your pets. However, it's crucial to keep an eye on your pet's exposure to high temperatures. Heat exhaustion and heatstroke can be life-threatening.

As the days heat up, keep your pets cool and comfortable! 😎

🚗 🐶 Here are some tips for traveling with your pet:

1. Bring a Travel Kit
Make a travel kit that includes a water bowl, some pet food, a leash or harness, a toy or a blanket from home for comfort, and any medication they might need.

2. Consider Documentation That You Might Need
If you are going to be crossing state or country borders, you will need to have the right documentation for your pet.

3. Have a Carrier or Crate
A carrier or crate can help your pet feel safe and ensures you have control over their environment.

4. Don’t Leave Pets in Parked Cars When It’s Hot
Temperatures in cars during warm months can reach deadly levels extremely fast. Never leave your pet in the car unattended.

5. Make Sure Your Pet Has a Collar and ID Tag
Ensure your pet has a well fitted collar and ID tag. If your pet gets lost, an ID tag will help get them returned to you faster. Getting your pet microchipped will also ensure their safety while traveling!
