Seasonal Pet Care Tips

Each season brings unique challenges for your pet. Here's how to keep them safe and comfortable year-round. Summer Never leave pets in a parked car. Walk early or late to avoid hot pavement, and always provide shade and fresh water. Fall Watch for mushrooms, antifreeze spills, and seasonal allergies. Keep up with flea and tick prevention — they're still active. Winter Limit time outdoors in extreme cold. Wipe paws after walks to remove salt and ice melt. Provide a warm, draft-free place to sleep. Spring Beware of toxic plants, lawn chemicals, and an uptick in parasites. Schedule a wellness check and update vaccinations.
