Managing your pet's weight is essential for their overall health and well-being. We know those puppy eyes can be hard to resist, but staying strong and keeping them on a healthy diet is key. Just like in humans, carrying extra weight can put a strain on their body and lead to serious health problems. Overweight pets are at higher risk for conditions like diabetes, arthritis, heart disease, and even joint problems. In addition to these issues, being overweight can reduce your pet’s lifespan and quality of life. By keeping them at a healthy weight, you’re not only helping them feel better and move more freely, but you're also ensuring they live a longer, happier life. If you're having a hard time determining if your pet is at the correct weight, bring them to your vet, where they can assess their health and recommend weight loss solutions and food. Let’s give our pets the best chance for a healthy future by managing their weight carefully and consistently!

VET TECH of the WEEK 🎉 Meet Aerial, without a doubt, one of the sweetest people you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting. Her gentle nature and soft-spoken voice are only matched by the warmth of her smile, which lights up any room she enters. Aerial's favorite part of working as a Vet Tech is, "being able to observe a patients health improve is my favorite aspect of working as a tech. Even though it is unfortunate and challenging to see a patient who is ill or injured. Seeing the final outcome after treatment is such a relief. One of the most important aspects of my career is communicating with the owners regarding treatment options and medication. In addition to offering solutions that are most convenient for the patient and owner, I always want to ensure that the client and pet receive the best quality of care within their means." We love Aerial and we are so incredibly blessed to have her as a part of our team!!

A**l glands are small sacs located near your pet's a**s that produce a thick, oily, and smelly fluid, often described as having a "fishy" odor. In wild animals, these glands are typically emptied voluntarily for purposes like scent-marking or defense (similar to how a skunk sprays). However, domesticated pets often need assistance in emptying their a**l glands, and some may not be able to do it on their own. When this happens, the glands can become impacted and cause discomfort. Dogs with impacted a**l glands may scoot their bottoms on the ground, lick the area, or chase their tails to try to relieve the discomfort. If you notice any of these signs, it's best to take your pet to the vet to have their a**l glands expressed. Some pets may need more frequent visits for this procedure than others. https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951501

Pyometra is an infection that can happen in female animals due to hormonal changes. After a female goes into heat, her body produces a hormone called progesterone, which keeps the lining of the uterus thick, as if preparing for a baby. If she doesn’t get pregnant over a few heat cycles, this lining keeps getting thicker and can form cysts. This thick lining starts to produce fluids, which makes it easy for bacteria to grow. Also, high levels of progesterone make it hard for the uterus to contract and push out these fluids or bacteria, leading to infection. We recommend SPAYING your pet if you do not plan to breed them, as this will prevent the potential development of Pyometra in the future.
