Cassie update!

I'm so excited to share with you all that our sweet friend, Cassie is doing incredibly well! She was diagnosed with Lyme disease on Friday, and started her treatment right away. The difference in her since then is absolutely remarkable! I can't wait for many more adventures to begin with this amazing little girl! 💗

One of my favourite little furry friends was diagnosed with Lyme disease today. I thought I'd share her story so that anyone who notices symptoms may be familiar with Cassie's experience and can prevent or treat their pup quickly as well. Cassie had an engorged tick on her in early Spring (early enough that most owners wouldn't think to prevent for ticks yet). Her mom removed the tick right away and started treating her with a veterinary recommended tick prevention (side note - I'd strongly recommend veterinary approved medications as there are several toxic preventions in the pet stores, especially for cats). Cassie has been doing great! No symptoms at all until yesterday. She went out for a p*e and started limping on her front paw. She had a visit to the vet to be sure that nothing had been fractured on her little backyard adventure, and the vet gave her pain medication to return home with. This morning she couldn't walk. She was completely lame, lethargic, and felt feverish. Cassie was taken back to the emergency vet where they tested her for lyme and she was positive. At this point, because Cassie's owner recognized the symptoms right away, she is being treated with long term antibiotics, and she has a great chance at recovery. Prevention and being aware of symptoms can certainly save your pup! Please keep Cassie and her parents in your thoughts. 💗🐾

It's HOT! And that means Fido may be spending a lot of time in the water. But do you know about the dangers of water toxicity?

Water toxicity happens when a dog just doesn't know when to call it quits. Water play - fetch in the lake, biting the spraying hose, lots of swimming- can result in the accidental ingestion of too much water. And although lots of water on a hot summer day can seem like a good thing, the problem of toxicity arises when the dog simply swallows far more than they should, leading to a severe imbalance of electrolytes.

What you might see : changes in personality, "drunken" behaviour, wobbly gait, collapse. Often a dog will continue to play even as these symptoms are emerging, so it's important to know when to tell Fido that he's had enough.

This is a condition that can lead to death if not treated promptly. If your dog has been playing excessively with water and is displaying any of the signs of water toxicity it is necessary to seek immediate veterinary care.

So in summary : a moderate amount of water play...great! Fun! But like a lot of things in life, there is sometimes too much of a good thing. Know when enough is enough and play again another day :)
