🌸 Spring Allergies or Flea Allergies? Know the Difference! 🚫🐾

Is your pet constantly scratching, licking, or sneezing? It can be tough to tell whether it's seasonal allergies or flea allergy dermatitis (FAD). Here's what to look for:

🌿 Spring Allergies:
- Itching, sneezing, watery eyes, and skin irritation
- Excessive scratching, licking, or chewing on paws or skin

🚫 Flea Allergy Dermatitis (FAD):
- Intense itching, redness, and inflammation (especially near the tail and back)
- Possible flea dirt (tiny black specks) on skin or fur

🐶🐱 Prevention is key! Make sure your pet is on a vet-recommended flea prevention regimen. If you're noticing any of these symptoms, give us a call at 📞 724-793-1779 to schedule an appointment!

🦷🐾 Even the healthiest-looking gums can hold surprises beneath the surface! This dog’s dental radiographs revealed the roots of a broken tooth that didn’t need any intervention. At East Market Veterinary Center, we include full mouth radiographs with every dental cleaning, because most of the tooth lies below the gumline—just like an iceberg. Regular dental check-ups help us keep your pet’s smile healthy, inside and out! #PetDentalCare #HealthySmiles #EastMarketVet

🚨 Blood Warning 🚨🐾 Ever wondered how a spay/neuter tattoo is done? Watch our quick guide and learn why this small mark is so important for your pet’s health! 🐶🐱🔍 This tattoo helps veterinarians identify spayed or neutered pets, preventing unnecessary surgeries. It’s a simple, quick, and safe procedure done while your pet is already under anesthesia for their spay/neuter surgery.🔑 Why is this important? 1. Avoid Unnecessary Surgeries: If your pet is ever lost and then found, the tattoo informs other vets that your pet has already been spayed/neutered. 2. Health Benefits: Spaying/neutering reduces the risk of certain cancers and infections, contributing to a longer, healthier life for your pet. 3. Population Control: Helps reduce the number of unwanted pets, contributing to fewer animals in shelters.📞 Have questions or need to schedule an appointment?

After those fun bloopers, let’s focus on the importance of pet safety. With July 4th being the #1 day for missing pets, microchipping is more crucial than ever. Each year, 10 million pets are lost in America, and millions end up in shelters. Sadly, only about 15% of unchipped dogs and 3% of unchipped cats make it back to their owners. In honor of Chip Your Pet Month, we encourage all pet owners to get their pets microchipped! Studies show that microchipped pets are over THREE times more likely to be reunited with their families. If your pet is already chipped, make sure your contact information is up to date to avoid any delays in reuniting with your furry friend. 🐾#chipyourpetmonth #chipyourpet #microchipyourpet #microchip #petsafety

Who says microchipping can’t be fun? Enjoy these behind-the-scenes bloopers at East Market Veterinary Center! 🐾 #PetBloopers #MicrochipMoments
