It’s certainly heating up 🔥🥵. Make sure to keep ur furry friend cool 😎 during these hot days.

We're experiencing a heat wave with excessive heat and high temperatures over the next few days. 🔥☀️

This can mean the following dangers for your furry best friend:
- Dehydration💦
- Overheating🥵
- Scorched paws🐾

Know the signs of overheating (excessive panting, increased heart rate, and weakness) and bring your pet indoors or to a cool shady place. Remember that asphalt can reach 135 degrees even on an 85-degree day. Limit your outdoor walk or play time and bring water along for your four-legged friend and for yourself too.✅

Women's Animal Center encourages pet owners to seek Veterinary help immediately if your pet shows signs of heat stroke and has mobility problems. Our Veterinary Hospital can be reached at: 215-750-5252.

Losing a pet is difficult, no matter how long you had them. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) created this holiday to remember all of our pets that have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Pets hold a special place in our hearts and are part of the family for most people. During this time of mourning, pet owners might experience guilt, denial, and depression. Eventually, however, pet owners will feel acceptance and resolution. It’s important to talk about your pet with others and share fond memories, which can help bring joy instead of sadness for all the wonderful times you spent together.

Here are some meaningful and comforting ways to celebrate World Pet Memorial Day:

Create a memorial stone for your pet and place it in your garden or walkway.
Plant a tree or flower in memory of your pet.
Donate to your local humane society or animal rescue group in honor of your pet.
Gather photos of your pet and make a photo album.
Draw or paint a picture of your pet or have a picture painted by a local artist.
Get a tattoo in memory of your pet.
If you are helping your child cope with the loss of a pet, you may want to read them “The Goodbye Book” by Todd Parr or “I’ll Always Love You” by Hans Wilhelm.
Please share a picture of your pet with us. .

Beach safety tip:
Sand impaction ­­— an accumulation of ingested sand that causes a blockage in the intestines — can happen when dogs repeatedly ingest sand while retrieving balls, sticks, or other objects from on the beach. Other scenarios that can lead to sand ingestion or impaction include digging in sand and flinging it, drinking beach water with sand in it, or licking or eating sand with palatable spills on it.

“So many products contain caffeine at various strengths, that it’s difficult to know when something is dangerous, “The reactions that humans feel from consuming caffeine, such as an increased heart rate, are intensified in pets. In addition to an increased heart rate, if the dose is too high, caffeine can lead to an elevated blood pressure, abnormal heart rhythm, tremors, seizures, and in extreme cases, death.” Although most people consume caffeine in a drink, or in treats like chocolate or chewing gum, caffeine pills are also still heavily marketed and purchased.

What are the signs of leptospirosis in dogs?

The signs of leptospirosis in dogs vary, depending on the strain of the infecting bacteria, the dog's immune response, and other factors. Some infected dogs have no signs of illness; some have a mild and transient illness and recover on their own; and others develop severe, life-threatening illness.

For dogs that do become ill, the signs tend to be non-specific. These are the most common signs:

Loss of appetite
Vomiting
Lethargy
Abdominal pain
Diarrhea
Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and mucous membranes)
Dehydration
Drinking or urinating more than usual
Weight loss
Stiffness or muscle pain
The disease can progress to kidney and/or liver failure. Some dogs may develop severe lung disease and rapid, difficulty breathing. Damage to the heart muscle has been suspected in some cases.

Leptospirosis also can cause bleeding disorders, which can lead to blood-tinged vomit, urine, f***s (stool), or saliva; nosebleeds; and pinpoint red spots on the gums or other mucous membranes, or on light-colored skin. Fluid can build up in the body, causing swollen legs or excess fluid in the chest or abdomen.

Leptospirosis may be suspected based on the exposure history and signs shown by the dog, but many of these signs can also be seen with other diseases. In addition to a physical examination, your veterinarian may recommend a number of other tests such as blood tests, urine tests, radiographs (x-rays), and an ultrasound examination.
