4th of July is coming! This means a few thing!

1. Pets commonly run away due to fear of fireworks, please make sure you plan ahead to keep your pets secured during that time. Additionally, you may want to make sure they have microchips so if they do get lost they can be returned easily. Make sure you have your pet's collar with identification on it on them for the holiday.
2. Some pets are so afraid that they may need calming medicine - please contact us if you are interested in this.
3. Pets can commonly get very sick when they try to partake in our holiday foods, so please avoid sharing with them.

Due to the holiday, we will be closed Thursday and Friday (July 4th/5th). We will be unavailable to come in for emergency, but you can always call the on call cell phone if you have questions.

Happy 4th of July!

We may want to stick to our veterinary careers, but we had a blast at our late clinic Christmas party!

01/19/2024

February is National Dental Month! We are providing a 10% discount on every dental cleaning in the month of February.

Here are some dental disease facts:
1. Dental disease starts early - most pets by the age of 3 have some degree of dental disease - bad breath, yellow tartar buildup, and red/swollen gums.
2. Dental disease can be the source of major pain - If not detected early, years of tartar, plaque, and bacteria buildup can be the cause infection, inflammation, and diseased teeth. Your pet will be experiencing significant, chronic, life-changing pain.

Good news: We provide thorough dental exams, dental x rays, and scaling/polishing here at CAC. Dental x rays allow us to see pathology under the gum line that isn't seen to the naked eye. This allows us to help stop the source of pain sooner.

Call and schedule your appointment for February today! (979)732-5758!

01/15/2024

We will be closing today at noon due to the weather. Please call our emergency line if you have an emergency. (979)733-2956! Stay warm!!

Some people do not know, but one of Dr. Austin's passions is orthopedic surgery. Here are 2 examples of some orthopedic procedures done by Dr. Austin Sherman and Dr. Bryan Sherman.

The first is an example of a Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO). This is performed due to the rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament (CrCL) or in human medicine known as the ACL. CrCL disease in dogs is a chronic, progressive degeneration of the CrCL. Owners will report occasional to constant hindlimb lameness, worse with activity or at the end of the day, sits weird, and acutely non-weightbearing. CrCL disease can be diagnosed with a thorough physical exam and sedated x-rays. Treatment is what is seen in the first image. Once healed, dogs can return back to normal activity with great success!

The second and third images are from a traumatic hindlimb fracture that was fixed with plate and screws!

Both dogs healed amazingly and are back to running and playing just like they were before.

Don't forget to call us for your pet's orthopedic needs! (979) 732-5758!

This is Jake! He is a 13 year old lab whose arthritis was so bad that he couldn’t walk around the house without rugs down. Additionally, he would wake up frequently at night panting. He received his first Librela injection November 28th and this is him now! He is running now, no longer needs the rugs, and isn’t waking up at night! We are so happy to see him feeling better!

Librela is the first monoclonal antibody injection for arthritis pain in dogs! This video is just one example of the success we have seen in our patients! Arthritis gets worse during the winter months, so we are so happy to carry something to help our patients out!

Dental disease is very common in our pets. The best way to prevent dental disease is by brushing their teeth daily and by having a dental cleaning once or twice yearly. Pets won’t let us do dental cleanings awake, so they have to be anesthetized. We created a video on how we do dental cleanings here at Columbus Animal Clinic. Bella is Drs. Austin and Carissa’s 4.5 year old mixed breed dog. We do dental procedures on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday mornings. February is our dental month. We are offering a 10% discount on our dental cleanings. *Pre-anesthetic bloodwork and IV fluids are additional to the dental procedure package, but are at a discounted rate. Call today to schedule your pet’s dental! (979) 732-5758.
