Friday fact!
These microscope images are of a urine sample from a dog with a suspected urinary tract infection. The owner noticed a blood tinge to the urine, and a really foul smell! Upon examination under the microscope, we can see:

đź’Ž Struvite crystals
🩸Red and white blood cells
🔬Two kinds of bacteria and epithelial cells

It's always important to run a complete urinalysis if a pet is showing symptoms of a UTI, because we never know what we might be dealing with!

Coming to the vet can be a very stressful time for dogs and cats, and we want to make that easier! We would love for all of our patients to have a positive time here, and some pets need a bit of medication to help. Pre-visit pharmaceuticals, or PVPs, help to lower the levels of stress and anxiety our pets can be feeling prior to vet visits!

"Sassy" greatly benefits from some Gabapentin and Trazodone, which are given the night before and 2 hours before her vet visits!

Dental health is important to all of us, but especially to our dog and cat friends who don't brush their teeth twice a day like we do. This kitty was in for a Comprehensive Oral Health Assessment and Treatment, aka COHAT or dental, last week. These before and after pictures show the plaque and tartar buildup on the teeth prior to cleaning, and the clean teeth afterwards. With the help of dental x-rays we were able to determine that this girl needed to have 13 teeth removed, and that she had a few teeth missing already! Cleaning teeth, and removing any diseased teeth, helps to remove the dental disease from the mouth. We always recommend dental homecare for our cat and dog patients! There are lots of options for dental homecare!

Meet "Sassy", short for "Sasquatch"! This fluffy girl will be a frequent face on our socials going forward!
"Sassy" started her work at Owen Sound Vet Clinic by updating her weight! At 0.21 kgs, we can tell she is mostly fluff. We've started using kilograms for all of our patients which makes drug calculations so much faster for our veterinarians! An easy way to convert pounds to kilograms is to multiply by 2.2! So if 1 kilogram is 2.2 pounds, this makes "Sassy" 0.46 pounds!
