Sileo for Noise Phobia
Just in time for thunderstorms and fireworks, we are happy to announce a new product (for dogs only) called Sileo that helps with noise aversion and noise phobias. It is the first and only FDA-approved treatment for canine noise aversion caused by events such as fireworks, thunder, construction noise and traffic noise. It calms without sedating—so your dog can interact and enjoy time with your family.
Want to find out more? You can read the brochure for Sileo, see 13 Common Signs of Noise Aversion in Dogs or watch a video on how to administer Sileo to your dog!
Come by the clinic today to talk to us about the benefits of using Sileo for your dog!

Rest In Peace, K9 Obi
K9 Obi and his Handler, Officer Pat Womack Obi, a K9 officer for the Covington Police Department, passed over the Rainbow Bridge last week. We’ve known Obi since he first came to CPD and have enjoyed his visits over the years.
It has been a sad week for us, but we know that his passing has been so much harder on his family at CPD, for his handler and the handler’s family where he enjoyed his retirement.
Obi’s memorial service is Wednesday, April 22nd at the Covington Police Department at 2:30 pm. We will be closing the clinic for an extended lunch break (1-4pm) in order for all of us to attend his service.
We wish Obi many rides in patrol cars, treats, spa days and playing to a dog that is one of our own. Please keep his handler and family in your thoughts.

Rest In Peace, K9 Ringo
K9 Ringo Ringo, a dedicated K9 officer for the Covington Police Department, passed over the Rainbow Bridge last week. Today was his memorial ceremony. Ringo has been one of our favorites over the years and while we know it’s been a sad week for us, we know how much harder his passing is on his family – both his work family at CPD, his handler, and his home family where he was able to enjoy retirement.
Prior to today’s service, Ringo had a police escort through the Covington Square to the Covington Police Department where an honor guard as well as other K9’s and handlers lined the sidewalk while his remains were carried into the station. While there were some words, and some tears, there was also this video tribute. We hope that it helps everyone who was not touched by his special personality, or those who missed the service, to understand how much personality and how great of a dog he was – both in service and in life.
We wish him many rides in patrol cars, belly rubs, sunbathing, treats and spa days to a dog that became like one of our own over the years. Please keep his handler and family in your thoughts.
