They’re creepy… they’re crawly… and they’re NOT gone for the season.🕷️
We are asked often during the winter/colder months: “Aren’t ticks dead by now?”🥶☃️❄️
They’re not—and they can still spread disease during the colder months, we removed this one from a patient just today.
This is why we recommend keeping your pets on prevention all year long! 🦊🐶🩺💙

On this Giving Tuesday, we’re lending a paw to the shelter pets who need us most. Our tree has pets from Animal Welfare League Of Montgomery County Indiana, Cats Limited, and Home for Friendless Animals available for sponsorship and adoption!
Thank you to those you have donated and sponsored already; your generosity helps fill their bowls, warm their beds, and support the care that keeps them healthy.

Shelter pets don’t ask for much — just love, safety, and a chance.
This Giving Tuesday, your kindness helps make that chance possible. ’Tis the season to give back — and what better way than helping a shelter pet feel loved and cared for? 🎄🐾❤️💚

🐱Did you know?🐱Cats must eat regularly to avoid hepatic lipidosis (fatty liver disease). When a cat stops eating, even for a short period, their liver can become overwhelmed.
Feeding tubes provide a safe, controlled method of delivering nutrition and medications to cats that are unable or unwilling to eat. They support recovery by ensuring consistent caloric intake and reducing stress during feeding. 🩷
If your kitty isn’t eating, don’t wait—prompt veterinary care is essential.

🐶What Is a Cryptorchid Dog?🐶

Did you know some male dogs are born with one or both testicles that never make it to the sc***um? This condition is called cryptorchidism.
Definition: cryptorchidism = undescended testicle(s).
Can be unilateral (one testicle retained) or bilateral (both retained).

Common Retention Sites:
📍Inguinal canal (just under the skin in the groin area)
📍Abdomen (near the kidney or along the path of descent)

⚠️ Why It Matters⚠️
🐾Genetic condition – dogs with cryptorchidism should not be bred, as it can be passed on.
🐾Health risks – retained testicles are more likely to develop testicular cancer.
🐾Torsion (twisting of the spermatic cord, which can be painful and dangerous).
🐾Hormonal behavior – retained testicles can still produce testosterone, so neutering is still needed to prevent marking, aggression, or roaming behavior.

🩺 Treatment
Surgical removal (neuter/castration) is recommended.
If the testicle is abdominal, it may require a slightly more invasive surgery than a standard neuter.
Both the retained and descended testicle are typically removed.

Our patient below was cryptorchid, however we are happy to report his neuter with Dr. Karlin was successful and he is recovering well at home! 🐶❤️

Everyone help us congratulate our Star of the Month, ✨Dr. Breitenwischer!! ✨
She was nominated with the following statement: "Dr. B. is a rockstar on Saturdays, busting out appointments left and right! She always does everything she can for her patients and clients, and they appreciate it as much as we do!! She is willing to help out the technicians by getting her patients in a room and started when they are swamped, and always ready to answer the front staff's questions. We appreciate everything she does 🙂"
We are so blessed to have Dr. B as a member of our family; she truly makes an impact and difference in all she does.
