Spring Safety & Heartworm Awareness

As we welcome longer days, warmer weather, and more time outdoors, March is the perfect time to focus on your pet’s health and safety. At Mission Veterinary Hospital, we’re here to help you stay ahead of seasonal risks while keeping your pets happy, healthy, and protected.

With spring comes more outdoor playtime, blooming plants, and unfortunately… more exposure to hidden dangers. As your pet spends more time outside, it’s important to be mindful of what they may come into contact with.

Keep an eye out for:

• Toxic plants and flowers
• Lawn chemicals and fertilizers
• Increased exposure to fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes

A little awareness goes a long way in preventing unexpected trips to the vet.
