The olympics might be over but we couldnโt help ourselves ๐. Can anyone else with cats relate?
๐Taking patient care to the next level๐
At FRAH, our hospitalized patients get close monitoring and lots of TLC. Little Penny was recovering from a serious illness in our isolation ward. This is the only ward we canโt see from our main treatment room, so we set up a baby monitor.
Good thing too! When she started to feel better she decided to be a monkey and climb the bars of her run ๐

Our team wanted to share this short clip of a puppy who presented with pain and lameness. Milo was diagnosed with Lyme disease during this visit with Dr Cook. Thankfully his treatment was successful and he made a complete recovery.
Sadly, this isnโt the case for all of our patients. We have lost a few of our precious patients in the past few years to complications from Lyme. We are shocked at how many dogs are being diagnosed with Lyme and now we are also seeing other diseases from ticks (weโve had multiple patients with Anaplasmosis and also Ehrlichia).
What would our team wish for all of our canine patients to keep them as safe as possible?
โ
An effective monthly prescription tick medication
- 12 months of the year
(No gaps or breaks as our province has ticks year round)
โ
Lyme vaccine - we are now recommending this for most of our canine patients due to the high risk in NS
โ
Tick checks - we know Anaplasma is a disease that can be transmitted within a few hours of a tick bite - and there is no vaccine for this disease. Check for ticks daily if possible.
โ
Testing - if you have removed an engorged tick from your dog, a 4Dx Test is readily available at your vet. It checks for 4 diseases with just a small blood sample (Lyme, Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, Heartworm)
Please reach out with any questions or to book in for Lyme vaccination or testing. We also have our parasite medication promotion on until end of May.
