Celebrating the Human/Animal Bond!

May 5th - May 11th is National Pet Week!
We'll be celebrating the entire month of May!

Your relationship with your pet enriches your life.

Check out the ways to keep your family and your pet healthy for a long term relationship by going to 10 Steps for Responsible Pet Ownership provided by The National Center for Infectious Diseases. This article will benefit all pet owners or future pet owners.

Let's face it. Pets do get lost! Maybe they wandered off or maybe displaced during a major storm, many pets end up in animal shelters with no way to identify them or get them back home to their family. We can help with the HomeAgain® microchip implant. Read more at Microchipping Your Pet.

AND it's RABIES CLINIC TIME!!
Rabies is still an on-going problem in our area and the best way to prevent rabies in your pet is to vaccinate!
Our Rabies & Your Pet page will explain more about this dreaded disease!

Mark your calendars to attend one of the Cherokee County Rabies Clinics going on through the month of May.
Check out the dates and locations at Rabies Clinic Schedule and choose the one that works for you!


IS YOUR DOG FAT??
Just like any member of your family, you should be mindful of your dog's weight. Before you know it, your dog is huffing and puffing to climb the stairs and is having trouble running and playing. Even worse, the extra weight may put your dog at risk for some serious health problems.

Read about the signs and solutions to your pet weight gain at Is Your Dog Fat?


REMEMBER - the Holcomb Hilton is the place to pamper your pets in our "Home Away From Home"! First class pet boarding! Be sure to make your reservations early!
