HAIR LOSS AND SCALY SKIN? IT MAY NOT BE FUNGUS! When your pet develops hair loss, dry skin, or scaly patches around the eyes and mouth, a skin condition may seem like the obvious cause. But sometimes, the problem starts with something much smaller: zinc deficiency. Zinc may be needed only in small amounts, but it plays an important role in skin, coat, and immune health. When intake or absorption is inadequate, changes in your pet’s skin may be an early warning sign. ⚠️ Don’t rush to give zinc...

WHY ARE NEWBORN PETS BORN WITH CLOSED EYES? Seeing a newborn puppy or kitten with tightly closed eyes can be worrying. But this is actually a normal part of early development. At birth, their nervous system and vision are still immature. Their eyes need more time to develop, while scent and warmth help them find their mother. ⚠️ Never force their eyes open, as this can cause injury or eyes’ infection. 👉 When should their eyes normally open? Why are they born this way? And when should delayed...
