🍦🐾 Happy National Ice Cream Sandwich Day 🐾🍦

Today is the perfect day to treat yourself and your pups to something special, and we’ve got a cool idea for a dog-friendly twist on this classic treat! While ice cream sandwiches are a human favourite, why not whip up a doggy version? 🐶🍪

Here’s a simple recipe for a pup-friendly ice cream sandwich:

Dog-safe Peanut Butter: Spread a thin layer on a dog-friendly biscuit or treat.
Frozen Yogurt: Scoop a little plain, unsweetened yogurt on top.
Another Biscuit: Sandwich it all together and freeze for a cool, tasty delight!
Remember to keep the treats safe and healthy—no chocolate or xylitol! 🐕🍦

Pet Fire Safety Awareness Day. Dr. Jenna and Mindy's top three tips:
1. Remove Stove K***s - Be sure to remove stove k***s before leaving the house
2. Invest in Flameless Candles - These candles contain a light bulb rather than an open flame, and take the danger out of your pet knocking over a candle
3. Secure Young Pets - keep them confined away from potential fire-starting hazards when you are away from home

The temperatures are rising and we want to keep your pets cool as a cucumber. Here are some tips:
1. Keep pets inside in extreme heat and use cooling mats to prevent overheating.
2. Check the pavement before taking your pet for a walk - hot asphalt can cause burns to the pads.
3. Swimming and wading are a great way to cool off. Be sure to dry them well afterward to prevent skin problems.
4. Keep lots of fresh water available.
5. Keep healthy frozen dog treats available for your pooch (see Tuesday's post for a recipe).

Reminder! With the hot weather this week, remember to keep your pets safe. Pets have a limited capacity to deal with the heat and they can become quickly overwhelmed leading to heat stroke. If you see an animal left in a hot car in distress, call 911. Learn more about signs and symptoms of heat stroke at www.ovma.org/petcare/pet-safety-tips

Next week is looking a bit more promising for spring weather. Hang in there! Post a picture of your muddy pets in the comments. #rvt #dvm #aprilshowers #vetclinic

Even with the snow on the ground, it’s important to start thinking about tick and flea prevention for our pets! Let’s ensure we keep our beloved pets protected and healthy by starting your tick and flea prevention now! Call the clinic today to get started! 🐾

Ticks are active

In the past week, we have diagnosed five patients with a tick-borne disease. Ticks are active any time the temperature is above zero degrees Celsius. We now recommend using tick prevention every month of the year in our area. Call us if you need to discuss the best options for your pet. #rvt #Veterinarian #dvm #ParasitePrevention #parasiteprevention #ticks

Flynn

Our buddy Flynn was in during Pet Dental Health Month for a COHAT (complete oral health assessment and treatment). This can only be properly performed under general anesthesia in a veterinary office. During his treatment, we discovered a painful tooth root. We were able to remove the root to alleviate the disease and he is recovering well at home with his family. If you're concerned about your pet's oral health, call us. #DentalHealthMonth #toothbrushing #catsofinstagram #rvt #dvm

Dental fractures are a common, painful injury in dogs. Did you know that most fractures are entirely preventable? Dogs have powerful jaws, but the enamel on their teeth is not strong enough to withstand the trauma of chewing on hard objects like bones, Nylabones and other hard chews. Please avoid giving these objects to your dog to chew and use safer alternatives like Kongs or durable rubber chews. If you have questions or concerns about your pet's oral health, call us. #DentalHealthMonth #dvm #rvt #veterinarian #petoralhealth

Here's a good one to start off your Monday! 😆 #rvt #dvm #dadjokes

We just can't get enough of these knee-slappers! #veterinarian #rvt #dvm #dadjokes

February is National Dental Health Month in the Veterinary industry! To kick it off, we want to highlight how to brush your pet's teeth! This is one of the best preventative measures you can do to fight dental disease. If you are concerned about your pet's oral health or would like more information on how to get started with brushing your pet's teeth at home, give us a call to speak to one of our Veterinary professionals here at the clinic! 🐾🦷 #odvs3818 #orillia #RVT #oralhealth #dentistry #veterinarian #toothbrushing #DentalHealthMonth

To round out our month of pet training, let's give Marty a big "GOOD BOY" for all the fun stuff he's learned from his mom. Tammy is very interested in training and behaviour and knows how important it is to keep our pets engaged to prevent boredom. #rvt #dvm #puppytraining #veterinarians

🤣 Here's your Monday Funny! #dadjokes

This month we are focusing on training your pet. Socialization is a big part of training. Taking your dog to the park or pet-friendly retail store can be a great way to socialize and expose them to different environments. Wilson had a great time picking out his new toy at the pet store today. What a good boy! Be sure to have a well-fitting leash and harness or collar to ensure safety. #dvm #rvt #frenchbulldoglife #puppytraining

Today is the late Betty White's birthday. To honour this hilarious lady's legacy we encourage everyone who is able to donate $5.00 to a local animal shelter in her honour. #bettywhitechallenge2024 #rvt #dvm

Thanks for the chuckle Sheri! Happy Monday! #dadjokes
