Dr. Ann was graced with the incredible cuteness of these two brothers today, Enzo & Rocco Perrone. Being the hit of the day, these two Chichi’s were all puppy, and that’s how we like it around here. Both were champs for their vaccines and nail trim; of course, the sugar-free whipped cream was flowing. They both received Dr. Ann’s Healthy Puppy Approval, and we can’t wait to watch these boys grow. Welcome to the Family: Enzo, Rocco, Mom, and Dad!

Heartworms are not just for dogs! It's actually worse for cats. Feline heartworm disease is a lung disease rather than a heart disease as it is in dogs. The parasite is the same but because the heartworm's natural host is not a cat, the interaction between worm and host creates a very different condition. It isn't good for either the cat nor is it good for the worm. #HeartwormAwarenessMonth #heartworms #felineheartworm #catsgetheartwormstoo
