Winter Tip: During walks, your dog's feet, legs and belly may pick up de-icing products, antifreeze, or other chemicals that could be toxic. When you get back inside, wipe down (or wash) your pet's feet, legs and belly to remove these chemicals and reduce the risk that your dog will be poisoned after (s)he licks them off of his/her feet or fur. Consider using pet-safe de-icers on your property to protect your pets and the others in your neighborhood.

➡️More staff pets all dressed up for the cold 🥶
If your dog has a short coat or seems bothered by the cold weather, consider a sweater or dog coat. Have several on hand, so you can use a dry sweater or coat each time your dog goes outside. Wet sweaters or coats can actually make your dog colder. Some pet owners also use booties to protect their dog's feet; if you choose to use them, make sure they fit properly.

Some of our staff pets ❤️
Has your pet had his/her preventive care exam (wellness exam) yet? Cold weather may worsen some medical conditions such as arthritis. Your pet should be examined by a veterinarian at least once a year, and it's as good a time as any to get him/her checked out to make sure (s)he is ready and as healthy as possible for cold weather.

A warm vehicle engine can be an appealing heat source for outdoor and feral cats, but it can be deadly. Check underneath your car, bang on the hood, and honk the horn before starting the engine to encourage feline hitchhikers to abandon their roost under the hood.

Happiest patient award goes to....Luca! The most amazing, magical boxer in all the land! As our last appointment of the day, we were granted with extra playtime before we had to give her back to her mom. It's patients like Luca that remind us why we all chose veterinary medicine 🩺 ❤ 🐾

Here’s Oliver feeling good after his dental cleaning today! We love this little pup perhaps TOO much. Scratch that. There’s no such thing as TOO much when it comes to Oliver!💕💕

Shelter in Place tip of the week: 🎼Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming! 🐠

🎼”She works hard for the money...so hard for it, honey..”

As we head into the festive holiday season, pumpkin candles, cinnamon sticks, diffusers and sprays may be making their way into your home. While these scents do smell delicious, remember that your cat’s sense of smell is about 14 times stronger than your own. This means that these smells are even stronger and problematic to our feline friends. Instead—opt for more natural ways to introduce yummy smells into your home. Bake a pie, have fresh apples out, or even open a window. These alternatives can help ensure that both you and your furry friend enjoy the holidays this season! /\ /\ O O > ¥ <

Impervious to the pain of stepping on a lego...more evidence that cats can’t possibly be from this planet.

Why do dogs howl at sirens? We know dogs can have "howl and response" cues from other dogs, but why is the frequency of a siren so predictably able to get a dog to howl? Clearly dogs can tell the difference between their brethren and an ambulance. But what if the howl is involuntary, like a triggered heartbeat? Scientists at Tufting University Veterinary Collage think that is the answer. Dr. Lupe Hurley and Professor Hawley N. Atchall have been studying the howling behavior of wolves and dogs for decades. "This breakthrough has shown that the heart is not just a pump, but a reactive and communicative organ, with unrelated involuntary functions, keeping both the beat and the harmony to life's songs," says Dr. Hurley, his voice resonating a deep southern Louisiana French twang. Auditory acumen in the canids is well known, but we now know that they listen with their hearts too. This frequency of sounds act in the heart "as if they are in a fluid filled echo chamber. They are not only repeated but magnified," opined the British Prof. Atchall. As the sirens draw near, the urgency for response is transmitted down the vagus nerve to trigger the vocal response. The sonic frequencies of most ambulance sirens vibrates in opposition to the heart valve fiber vibration creating a specific major seventh chord. This classically dissonant combination creates a tension/vibration with each repeated modulations of the canine mitral valve heart beat. Because of the sonic connection the vagus nerve reacts to the heart valve fimbriae -- the trembling "heartache" --stimulating an irresistible and sympathetic howl. Oddly, this mechanism was only found by mistake. Scientists were evaluating the howling reactions to the light energy of moon and noted several recordings with this harmonic frequency with sirens passing by. Dr. Atchall claimed he "felt his own heartstrings being tugged by the vibration in the sounds." The study now has brain activity data from June Thru April
