Lymphoma is a relatively common cancer, accounting for 15-20% of new cancer diagnoses in dogs. It is most common in middle-aged and older dogs, and several breeds are predisposed, suggesting that there may be a genetic component to lymphoma, although this has not been confirmed.

Thousands of pets go missing each year. Sadly, with no identification to reunite them with their owners, they find themselves in shelters placed for adoption with new families, or worse. To ensure your pet has the best chance of finding their way home after escape, emergency situation or natural diaster, have them microchipped and keep your contact information up to date. Tags, collars and harnesses can fall off, and accidents can happen anytime! This is one easy way to help keep them safe.

Pets can be super sensitive to unfamiliar costumes and busy sidewalks full of trick-or-treaters, which is why we suggest leaving them at home. If ringing doorbells may upset your pet, create a safe space for them in a separate room with white noise.

Ask your VCA veterinarian for more Halloween tips and tricks.

It's crucial to make sure that your pet's medication is not expired. Drugs may not be safe or effective beyond the specified expiration date.

Decorate your home with your pet in mind this Halloween. While pumpkins are non-toxic, they can cause upset stomachs if consumed in large quantities and if lit, can cause burns. Hang decorative lights out of reach, as cables can cause electrocution.

Consult your VCA veterinarian for more holiday tips.

It's hard to leave your pets at home when you have errands to run, but being separated could cause your pet to become overly anxious. It's important to be aware of separation anxiety to help your pet overcome it.
