Medicine Monday 🩺 Zoonotic Diseases A zoonosis (zoonotic disease or zoonoses) is an infectious disease that is transmitted between species from animals to humans (or from humans to animals). It is important to protect your pet, and in turn, you and your family, with parasite prevention. #medicinemonday #parasiteprevention #zoonoticdisease #apsleyveterinaryservices

Wait for it....POUNCE!

Another Librela success story!

Librela ~ The first injectable monthly antibody therapy to alleviate osteoarthritis pain. #librela #osteoarthritisrelief #zoetisanimalhealth

🩺Medicine Monday💩 It is very important to check your pet's poop at least once a year for intestinal parasites. Unlike the tapeworms seen squirming around in this sample, many creepy-crawlies are not visible and can cause mild to no visible signs in your furry friend. Some parasites are zoonotic, meaning they can be transmitted to you and your family! #parasiteprevention #fecaltesting #tapeworm #zoonoticparasites #protectyourpet #protectyourfamily #apsleyveterinaryservices

Medicine Monday🩺 ~ Dental Health🦷 Did you know that bad breath isn’t normal for pets? Dental disease is the most common condition among our pets. By the age of three, most dogs and cats have some degree of dental disease, which only worsens as they age if preventative measures aren’t taken. Periodontal disease doesn’t just affect your pet’s mouth, it is also associated with other health problems such as liver, kidney and heart disease. Milo is seen here demonstrating his daily dental routine. His Mom, Narcisse (one of our Veterinary Assistants), has been brushing his teeth since he was a kitten, which is the best time to start. But it's never too late to start brushing. If your pet won't tolerate brushing, there are other alternatives we would be happy to discuss with you. #medicinemonday #dentalhealth #periodontaldisease #brushyourpetsteeth #startthemyoung #itsnotjustabouttheteeth #apsleyveterinaryservices

🩺Medicine Monday💩 Boot Scootin' Boogie Edition Normally when dogs and cats poop, they express their glands naturally, releasing anal gland fluid. However, when this does not happen, the sacs become full and impacted, causing pain and discomfort. This can easily be treated by one of our Registered Veterinary Technicians. If your pet has one or more of the following symptoms, please contact your veterinary team: - Scooting - Frequently licking or biting their hind end - Straining to poop - Showing discomfort when pooping - Not wanting to sit - Anal discharge - Crying or whimpering - Swelling or redness in the anal area #medicinemonday #letstalkaboutbums #bootscootingboogie #vetmed #themoreyourknow #analglandexpression #scooting #bumlicking
