Meet Snoopy, Our November Pet Of The Month!

 

World, meet Snoopy, our November Pet Of The Month!

In honor of Senior Pet Awareness Month, we are shining the spotlight on Snoopy! This sweet girl is 19 years old - she has been a part of Sabal Chase Animal Clinic longer than the Kupkees have. But why call her senior - we prefer the term "vintage."

Despite her vintage status, Snoopy is always bright and aware during her veterinary visits. While she deals with some of the same challenges common to older humans (read, arthritis and exercise intolerance), her family has always stayed up to date with her wellness care, and treats her like the princess she knows she is. If your pet is a large breed dog over the age of seven, a small breed dog over the age of nine, or a cat over the age of eleven, ask about our senior wellness bloodwork discounts, available from now until the end of the year.

Congratulations, Snoopy and share with all your friends - like a fine wine, you just get better with age. That's why you're our Pet Of The Month!

This sassy senior is 19 years old - and only getting better with age!

It's Senior Pet Awareness Month!

 

November is Senior Pet Awareness Month - and thanks to advances in veterinary care and nutrition, our pets are living longer lives than ever.  But like their human counterparts, pets require additional routine wellness checks to ensure they age as gracefully as possible. 

As our furry friends grow older, they are more susceptible to diseases of the kidneys, liver, thyroid and cardio-vascular systems. Pet parents are advised to be more diligent about dental care, as some of these problems are directly linked to advanced dental disease. Older pets are also more prone to arthritis and cognitive decline. Senior pets should be thoroughly examined by your family's veterinarian at least twice per year.  From now until December 31st, we are offering a 20% discount on our canine and feline senior wellness packages. Call us today to schedule an appointment for your senior friend - and for what it's worth, we prefer the term "vintage."

Vintage and fabulous!
