" Chance " has been limping today but the medicine should make him feel much better very soon. Time for a ride in the cab Chance.

Sometimes puppies have emergencies too!

Summer is an exciting time for the entire family...but exploding fireworks, loud booming music and other noises, like thunderstorms, are terribly frightening to pets. We recommend keeping your pets inside in a room farthest away from the fireworks or noise. Never let pets near exploding fireworks which can burn and severely injure them. Our office can offer suggestions or medication to help ease your pet’s anxiety during this season.

I need a shot where?

Pets & Heat

Now is a wonderful opportunity to have fun and frolic with your pets…but be careful. While exercise is important for pets, overexertion during hot weather can commonly cause heat stress. Make sure your pet has an ample supply of fresh drinking water at all times and a shady spot to retreat to for protection from the midday sun and heat. 

Dental Reminder

Could you imagine how your mouth would feel if you never brushed your teeth? Dental care for pets is the most neglected of all pet health care. We recommend bringing your pet in for a dental cleaning and polishing. Periodontal disease is the most common disease among cats and dogs…so don’t let your dog be miserable. You can also help your dog by brushing their teeth daily. Don’t let bad breath stand in the way of you and your pet, give them fresh breath and pearly whites.

 

Pets and Trucks

Did you know that riding in the back of trucks is not safe for your pet and in some states it’s actually illegal?  While any dog would love the wind blowing through its fur, other things are blowing through that wind too.  This increases the risk for you dog to get hit with flying debris which might cause injury that you might not even be aware of.  Keep your pet in the cab of the truck, preferably in a crate that will not slide around with sudden stops.
