First Visit. New patients only. Offer

DEAR READER,

an you feel that? That’s the hope

that accompanies the beginning

of every new year. The drive to

do better, be better, love better, and

get more out of life is overwhelming

at the start of the new year. Yet, all too

often one day turns into the next, and

then a week, and then a month is nearly

gone. At the end of the month, you sit

there thinking, “What happened to this

month? It’s gone.”

How about, collectively, we don’t do that

this year? How about we go into every

day with intention and a plan, and end

every day feeling a sense of fulfillment

knowing we gave it our all? And on the

days we fall, we give ourselves the grace

to get back up and start fresh in the

morning.

This year, my wish for all of you is that

you go into each new day with new

hope. Leaving yesterday’s failures in the

dustbin of history. We know

we can’t change yesterday

but, God willing, we will open

our eyes again tomorrow

and get another crack at

accomplishing

our

goals.

As I begin this year, my 15th

year of publishing Pet Junction,

I have set some pretty high

goals. Those goals include bringing you

the best information and reliable advice

I can find for both you and your pets.

Finding the absolute most kick-ass local

businesses to serve you. And to bring joy

and love into your life through this fun

little book that I love so much!

I hope you will come along for the

adventure, and support our advertisers

our

sponsors

who

make

this

all

possible. But most of all, I wish you a

beautiful, prosperous and hopeful 2025!

Now sit back, relax, put your feet up,

grab some coffee or tea, maybe even

a drink, and enjoy this issue of Pet

Junction. I’ll be back in a few months

with another fantastic issue. Until then,

visit our website and sign up for your free

community membership! I’d love to see

you there!
