We’ve had an awful lot of togetherness lately. People’s reactions to the lockdown provisions differ wildly, but we feel confident when we say that for most of the nation’s pets, all of the extra walks, snuggles, and playtime over the past several months have been delightful.

Pets thrive on a daily routine, and as these orders have lifted (and reinstated, and lifted again in some areas), it’s natural for them to be affected. At Summeridge Animal Clinic we are experts at helping our patients and their family deal with separation anxiety in pets, and we have some strategies and tips designed to ease this transition for your furry friend.

Whole foods, organic meals, Keto, vegan, raw, the list goes on when it comes to the many diets that are trending. It’s hard to know which diet is the best for us with so many options. The same is true for pet owners now, when there are several fad diets that profess to be the best and most nutritious for our fur friends.

It can be overwhelming to discern the right diet best suited for your special pet, we understand. This is why the team at Summeridge Animal Clinic is here to separate fact from fiction when it comes to fad diets for dogs, so you can feel informed about your decisions.

Indoor-only cats enjoy longer, healthier lives, but that doesn’t mean they’re the happiest they could be. Without a doubt, destructive cat behavior can stem from boredom or loneliness. The good news is that you can stay in front of developing problems by enriching their indoor environment.
