It’s Lyme Disease prevention month - a disease transmitted by ticks!

We highly recommend the Lyme vaccine for dogs who live in or frequent areas known for Lyme disease, or potential tick exposure.

Areas such as hiking trails, wooded areas, long grass, campgrounds

Symptoms of Lyme Disease in dogs:
Most common symptoms are lameness, swelling of lymph nodes and joints, fatigue, and loss of appetite

*note that dogs may not show signs of illness for weeks or months after becoming infected
If detected early, antibiotics can dissipate symptoms, however the dog will remain Lyme disease positive for the rest of their life

We talk a lot about heartworm in dogs, but what about cats?

Cats are resistant hosts to heartworm, and often the symptoms are difficult to diagnose, as the clinical signs are similar to several other diseases. There is unfortunately no treatment for heartworm in cats, however there is prevention options readily available!

Talk to one of our veterinarians to find the right prevention for your cat!

🪱administering heart worm preventatives to a dog infected with adult heart worm, may be harmful or deadly - but causing a shock-line reaction to your pet

It’s time to schedule your pets heart worm test in preparation for heart worm medication start (around June 1). 📞 call the clinic to schedule!

Did you know that you have the option to swap out a cone for a pet medical shirt on a number of procedures? Zoey here is an excellent model!

Medical shirts are light-weight, breathable, and can help prevent stress and anxiety compared to a typical cone, while still providing the important benefit of avoiding infection by the surgical area being licked, or environmental factors such as dust and dirt!

Ear mites can cause intense ear irritation and discomfort. These tiny parasites feed on wax and oils in your pet’s ear canals and can result in head shaking or scratching, rubbing of the ears and secondary ear infections. As with all parasites, prevention is better than cure when it comes to ear mites. Simple monthly dosing helps keep your furry friend healthy by treating and controlling ear mite infestations. Talk to your veterinarian about which prevention is best for your pet!
