May brings flowers, sunshine… and a whole week dedicated to celebrating our furry family members! National Pet Week (May 4–10, 2025) is a time to recognize the unconditional love and companionship our pets give us—and the responsibility we have to care for them in return.
At Pearland Animal Hospital, we believe every week should be Pet Week… but we’re not passing up the chance to spotlight some key ways you can give back to your best friend this month.
Here are 7 meaningful ways to celebrate National Pet Week:
1. Schedule a Wellness Exam
Prevention is the best medicine. Whether your pet is due for vaccines, a dental check, or bloodwork, regular wellness visits help us catch issues early and keep tails wagging longer.
2. Focus on Dental Health
Bad breath isn’t just a nuisance—it could signal gum disease or infection. Ask us about dental cleanings and at-home oral care options to protect your pet’s smile.
3. Update Parasite Prevention
Fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes are in full swing this time of year. Make sure your pet is protected with a monthly preventive. Not sure what’s best? We’re happy to help you choose.
4. Exercise Together
Take a walk, hit the dog park, or play a new game in the backyard. Exercise keeps pets physically healthy and mentally enriched—and it’s good for humans too!
5. Microchip Check
Already microchipped? Take five minutes to make sure your contact info is current. Not chipped yet? Give us a call. It’s a quick and easy way to keep your pet safe if they ever get lost.
6. Treat Them (the Healthy Way)
Celebrate with new toys, a puzzle feeder, or a special low-calorie treat. Need recommendations? Our team knows the good stuff.
7. Show Your Pet Some Love on Social
Post a pic of your pet living their best life and tag us on Facebook or Instagram. Use #PAHPets or #NationalPetWeek so we can see your adorable fur-babies!
