We are saddened to hear of Queen Minnie’s passing. We are thinking of all of our friends at Adventure Pets - Mandeville LA and missing her sweet face dearly!

Fireworks may be fun for us, but they can be frightening for our four-legged friends.

This Fourth of July, help keep your pets safe by bringing them indoors, creating a quiet place where they can relax, and making sure their ID tags and microchip information are up to date. A little preparation can make all the difference if loud celebrations leave them feeling anxious.

Let's make sure everyone, two-legged and four-legged, has a safe and happy holiday.

We’re thrilled to share that Northshore Humane Society had 11 adoptions at this year’s Krewe du Pooch!

Nothing makes us happier than seeing rescue dogs find loving forever homes, and we’re so proud to have played a small part in helping these pups start their next chapter. Congratulations to the entire Northshore Humane Society team for their incredible work!

Don’t forget to support NHS again at on Saturday, September 27 at the Castine Center in Mandeville.

These are all very important to remember!

☀️🐾 Summer fun is better when pets stay safe! 🐾☀️
Warmer weather means more outdoor adventures, but it can also bring an increase in summertime pet emergencies. 🌡️🐶🐱

Here are a few common warm-weather dangers to watch for:
🔥 Heatstroke & overheating
🚗 Hot cars (even for a few minutes!)
🐾 Burned paw pads on hot pavement
🦟 Fleas, ticks & mosquitoes
💧 Dehydration
🌽 BBQ foods and summer treats that aren’t pet-safe

Signs your pet may be overheating can include:
⚠️ Excessive panting
⚠️ Drooling
⚠️ Weakness or stumbling
⚠️ Vomiting
⚠️ Bright red gums

If your pet ever seems distressed or overheated, contact your veterinarian right away. 🩺💙
A little extra caution can help keep summer safe, fun, and full of tail wags! 🌴🐾
