Every pet deserves a loving home – and every family deserves the support they need to keep their best friend by their side, the Arizona Humane Society (AHS) says. With that in mind, the organization offers a range of resources designed to keep pets and people together.

Among its many services, AHS now offers online veterinary appointments for pets located in Arizona. The medical team can answer questions about a pet’s health through a convenient video call. Thanks to the Patricia L. Fontana Family, AHS offers these services at a reduced fee for a limited time. Visit www.azhumane.org/online-vet-care.

In addition, the knowledgeable veterinarians and caring staff at AHS’ two full-service clinics strive to keep your pet healthy and happy, offering wellness care, vaccinations and medical exams. Using state-of-the-art equipment and diagnostic tools while continuing to offer affordable pet care for the community. Visit www.azhumane.org/all-veterinary-services.

Finally, with high temperatures in Phoenix already hitting the 100-degree mark in March, AHS offers guidance to families to help keep pets safe over the summer months.

From breaking down the dangers of tethering dogs outside (scorching summer temps turn deadly quickly and tethered dogs can easily become tangled, trapped without water, food or shelter) to explaining the signs of heat stroke in pets and providing guidance on how to prevent paw burns on Phoenix’s hot sidewalks (if it is too hot for bare feet, it is too hot for bare paws), AHS offers practical and helpful guidance to pet parents.
