Did you know…. Blacklegged ticks (the ones that can transmit the Lyme disease bacteria) can survive freezing temperatures? One way is that they create their own “anti-freeze” that helps them tolerate the cold!

However, a new study showed that when they are infected with certain bacteria, like the one that causes Lyme disease, they may be even BETTER at surviving our cold winters! Call your veterinarian to discuss the best tick control options for your pet.

Le saviez-vous? Les tiques à pattes noires (celles qui peuvent transmettre la bactérie de la maladie de Lyme) peuvent survivre à des températures glaciales? Elles créent leur propre « antigel » qui les aide à supporter les températures inférieures à zéro!

Par ailleurs, une étude récente a montré que les tiques qui sont infectées par certaines bactéries, comme celle qui cause la maladie de Lyme, résistent MIEUX aux rigueurs de l’hiver que les tiques non infectées! Appelez votre vétérinaire pour discuter des meilleures options de protection contre les tiques pour votre animal.

🧀 Cheese doesn’t really sound like an object that can break teeth until we heard about the new trendy ‘yak cheese’ chews at the pet store. Recently we have seen multiple dogs for treatment of fractured teeth caused by chewing on these yak cheese chews.

🦷 Xena, a 1.5-year-old Sheltie, was one of them. She had a complicated crown-root fracture of tooth 108 and an uncomplicated crown fracture of tooth 208. Her owner believes the culprit was the yak cheese chew she was chewing on. Unfortunately, due to the extent of the fracture, her 108 required extraction.

🦴 Out of curiosity, one of our RVTs went to a local pet store to meet these ‘yak cheese chews’ in person. Although they are ‘cheese’, these things are almost as hard as bones and antlers! You cannot bend it, you cannot dent it with a fingernail, and it will definitely hurt if you get hit in the kneecap with it. No matter whether they call it cheese or tofu or marshmallow, when picking a chew toy for your dog, make sure you always follow The Kneecap Rule -http://www.toothvet.ca/PDFfiles/The_Knee_Cap_Rule.pdf
