Pet of the Month: Denver

Denver the Sheltie is happy to be chosen for Edmonds Veterinary Hospital's August Pet of the Month! Going to the Edmonds Vet is one of his very favorite things to do!!  As soon as Denver arrives he is eager to get behind the front desk to charm the staff out of pets, hugs and espceially good 'treats'!

Today is Take Your Cat to the Vet Day

Did you know that your cat should be in to see us at Edmonds Veterinary Hospital once a year all their life, and sometimes twice a year when they’re over seven years of age? Today is National “Take Your Cat to the Vet” Day—if your cat is due for a visit, call and schedule one today. Regular visits can help your cat live longer, because we can identify and treat problems sooner.

August 18 is National Homeless Animal Day

Did you know that August 18 is National Homeless Animal Day, honoring pets in shelters? If you’re looking for a new pet, we encourage you to visit the shelter to consider adopting an animal in need. There are many great dogs in shelters, just waiting for a second chance.

Pets & Camping Safety

Camping with your pet can be a fun adventure, but also a dangerous one! It’s important to be fully prepared for bringing a pet with you into the woods BEFORE you go. Make sure your pet is up-to-date on all parasite prevention, and be sure to pack plenty of food and water. If you’re filtering your water, don’t forget your pet needs filtered water too! And most importantly, check campground rules where you’ll be staying, because some campgrounds don’t allow pets because of the danger of large wild animals, like bears! Make sure you keep your pets and family safe, and have a great trip!
