Spring into Safety

Springtime is in the air, and at The Ark Pet Spa and Hotel, we're here to help you ensure your furry friends enjoy the season to the fullest! As the flowers bloom and the days get warmer, it's essential to prepare your pets for the joys and challenges that come with spring. In this blog post, we'll cover two critical aspects of pet care during the season: managing seasonal allergies and ensuring outdoor safety.

• Understanding Seasonal Allergies: Just like humans, pets can be affected by seasonal allergies. Keep an eye out for common signs such as excessive itching, sneezing, watery eyes, or changes in behavior. Consult with your veterinarian if you suspect allergies, as they can provide guidance on effective treatments and allergen management strategies.

• Grooming for Success: Regular grooming is key during springtime. Brushing your pet's coat helps remove excess fur and reduces the chance of mats, which can harbor allergens. Consider scheduling a professional grooming session at The Ark Pet Spa to ensure your pet is fresh, clean, and ready to embrace the season.

• Safe Outdoor Adventures: Spring invites outdoor escapades, and it's crucial to prioritize safety. Check your yard for any hazards that may have emerged after winter, such as sharp objects or toxic plants. Keep an eye out for pesky pests like ticks and fleas – our experts at The Ark can recommend effective prevention measures.

• Allergy-Resistant Bedding: Ensure your pet has a comfortable and allergen-free place to rest by investing in allergy-resistant bedding. This can provide relief for pets with allergies and contribute to their overall well-being.

• Regular Veterinary Check-ups: Schedule a spring wellness visit with your veterinarian. This allows for a thorough examination, vaccinations, and discussions about preventive measures tailored to your pet's needs.
• 
  
• Stay Hydrated: As temperatures rise, it's crucial to keep your pets hydrated. Ensure they have access to fresh water at all times, especially during outdoor activities.
