Welcome to Companion Animal Clinic Veterinary Clinic

A reminder for all those traveling with their canine companions 🐾

As we are amid our busy season here in the desert, we want to share an important reminder for our community and visitors traveling with pets.

With increased travel to the Joshua Tree area—especially from Los Angeles County—we’re seeing a higher risk of exposure to canine influenza (dog flu). This highly contagious respiratory illness can spread quickly anywhere dogs gather, including parks, trails, pet-friendly lodging, and rest stops.

We strongly recommend that all dogs—especially those socializing with other pets—be up to date on the canine flu vaccine.

If you’re planning a trip anywhere with your dog:
• Make sure vaccinations are current (including canine influenza)
• Avoid close contact with unfamiliar dogs when possible
• Monitor for symptoms like coughing, sneezing, nasal discharge, or lethargy

As most locals know, we are a small, single-doctor practice, and our availability can be extremely limited—prevention is key to keeping your pets safe and healthy!
