We believe an informed pet parent is a great pet parent. Here is practical advice from our in-house vet to help you raise a happy and healthy companion.

With the festive season approaching, our vet Dr. Anubhav answers common questions, like how to keep pets calm during fireworks and which festive foods to strictly avoid. Your pet's safety is our top priority.

For new pet parents, deworming and vaccination are the two most critical first steps. Dr. Mishra explains the correct schedule for puppies and kittens to ensure they have a healthy start in life.

Should pets be allowed around kids? I share my strong belief that growing up with pets teaches children invaluable lessons in empathy, kindness, and responsibility, contributing positively to their mental health.

A clear and direct infographic to start our series on fruits that are not safe for dogs. We believe in providing simple, easy to understand information to help pet parents make safe choices.

Grapes and raisins are extremely toxic to dogs and can cause kidney failure. This is a critical piece of information that every dog owner should know.

Did you know avocado contains persin, which can cause vomiting and diarrhea in dogs? It's best to keep this creamy fruit away from your furry friend.

Cherries, especially the pits, stems, and leaves, contain cyanide and are toxic to dogs. They also pose a choking hazard. This is another important fruit to avoid.

Citrus fruits like oranges and lemons are highly acidic and can upset your dog's stomach. The peels and seeds also contain oils that are toxic.

While ripe tomatoes are generally okay in small amounts, the green parts of the plant are harmful. This infographic explains the dangers of solanine for dogs.

After sharing what to avoid, we also provide a list of safe fruits for dogs. Apples, bananas, and watermelon can be healthy treats in moderation.
