Maintenance tips for spring
SUMMARY: Spring is the perfect time to tackle essential home maintenance tasks. Angie Hicks, co-founder of Angie, recommends tuning up your air conditioner to ensure efficiency and reduce utility bills. Inspect your roof for loose shingles and clean gutters to prevent water damage. Check your yard for debris, clean patio furniture, and inspect your deck for loose boards. Fertilize your lawn and ensure your mower works well. Inside, clean appliances like your washing machine, dryer, and refrigerator. Check for cracks in your foundation and address them early. These tasks help save money and prevent future issues.

Protecting your dog against diseases
SUMMARY: As warmer weather approaches, respiratory diseases in dogs increase, peaking between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Diseases like canine influenza, parainfluenza, and bordetella bronco spread through dog-to-dog contact, contaminated surfaces, and secretions from coughing or sneezing. To protect pets, veterinarians recommend vaccinations such as the Novivvac Intrat oral BBPI and Novivvac Next K9 Flu H3N2. These vaccines help prevent illnesses like kennel cough and dog flu, which can lead to pneumonia in severe cases. Pet owners should consult their vet to discuss their dog’s risks and vaccination options to ensure their pets stay healthy during this high-risk season.

As the weather warms up, dogs are out and about more, and respiratory diseases increase as well.
