Happy Valentine's Day

February 14th is a day for all to show our loved ones how much we care.  This inevitably means gifts of food and flowers.  Our pets are rarely far from our sides, so Midlands Veterinary Practice wants to remind you to be careful when you get your Valentine's treats.  Be sure to keep all food items out of reach of your pets, especially chocolate items.  Also be careful that any small ribbons or wrapping material is placed in the waste or out of reach of pets.  Be aware that some flowers and plants are toxic to our pets (especially the lilly family), so it's best to keep them placed away from the reach of our four legged friends.  Help make this a happy and safe day for all our loved ones.
