We know it’s hard to resist puppy dog eyes, but be careful when it comes to sharing table scraps. Did you know that garlic and onions, in any form, are toxic to pets? And check those labels for Xylitol found in desserts, peanut butters, candies and condiments. Xylitol is very toxic even in small amounts.

From all of us here at Alhambra Veterinary Hospital, we want to wish you and your pets and your family a happy holiday season 🤎

Here’s the scoop—we’ve got a cool new scope! An endoscope allows our veterinarians to do a minimally invasive inspection of the inside of hollow organs like the stomach, esophagus, and parts of the lower GI tract. It’s incredibly useful in addressing issues like GI upset, foreign body blockages/ingestion, and collecting tissue samples for biopsy. We’re proud to offer this service to our clients and know that it will allow us to take even better care of your furry friends.

If you have any questions about endoscopy and how it can benefit your pet, or you’d like to make an appointment, please call us today at (626) 289-9227.

Did you know that dogs and cats have three eyelids instead of the two that we have? This nictitating membrane is usually hidden inside the corner of each eye. If your pet’s third eyelid is constantly visible, this could be a sign of illness.
