Here at Virbac, we understand the importance of mental health and as such, we have expanded our wellness program to include more than just physical wellness but also mental health wellness.

August is Itchy Pet Awareness Month, but we all know that dogs and cats sometimes itch, scratch, rub, bite, lick and chew on their fur year-round. 

For many, July means a dip in the pool, barbecue cookouts and summer vacations. But the middle of summer also means the onset of dangerously hot temperatures that can easily soar into triple-digit territory.

For many of us, summer is all about fun in the sun. But sometimes summer temperatures can be dangerous, especially for the four-legged friends in our lives. We at Virbac want to remind you to please keep a close eye on your pets for signs of overheating.

As you prepare for your 4th of July festivities on Monday, remember, this holiday can be a little overwhelming for pets. Some pets tend to be anxious or nervous around large gatherings of people and/or loud, unexpected noises, such as fireworks. 

The summer season is here and, for many of us, temperatures are already soaring to scorching triple digits. As it turns out the “dog days of summer” aren’t the most friendly of times for our canine companions, who cannot tolerate heat like us humans.
