As some of you may have seen, Bear Creek Park has put a "swim at your own risk" advisory up after concerns of algae blooms. Blue green algae can cause Cyanobacterial Hepatotoxicosis in dogs which is an acute and often fatal condition caused by swimming in or drinking from water containing toxins. Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic, prokaryotic organisms that exist in fresh, brackish, and salt waters.
Clinical signs include vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, collapse. Other signs may include anorexia, anxiety, nervousness, seizures. If you have been to this park recently and your pet starts showing any of these symptoms please book an appointment with your vet.

Does anyone know who this cat belongs too? She was found in someones backyard in Crawford area.

Checked for a microchip, but was not registered😢

She is safe for now, but her family probably misses her!

Tips to keep your dogs cool with the hot weather coming up!

Keep your pet well hydrated and avoid walks during the hot hours of the day.
Hot pavement can burn your pups feet, check the pavement with the back of your hand before taking them for a walk.
Cool, wet towels can help your fur babies cool down after walks.
Let your pups rest during the hot hours of the day to keep them cool longer.

Happy summer!
