🥶As temperatures drop, antifreeze exposure becomes a major risk for pets. ⚠️

Ethylene glycol has a naturally sweet taste, making small spills attractive to dogs and cats.
Even minimal ingestion can lead to severe toxicity and life threatening kidney damage within 24 to 72 hours.‼️

Common early signs include ataxia, vomiting, increased thirst and urination, or sudden lethargy. Because ethylene glycol is absorbed quickly, rapid veterinary intervention is essential.

Winter safety practices for pet owners include regularly checking for vehicle leaks, cleaning spills immediately, securing antifreeze containers, and preventing unsupervised outdoor drinking.

Awareness and fast action are key to preventing a tragic outcome.❤️

💩Key Reasons F***l Tests Are Important:
✅Early Parasite Detection: Many parasites don’t show symptoms until they’re well-established, but a f***l exam finds them, allowing for quick treatment.
✅Prevent Serious Illness: Untreated parasites can cause anemia, weight loss, vomiting, and other severe problems
✅Protect Your Family❤️: Parasites like roundworms and hookworms can spread from pets to people (zoonotic risk), making testing vital for household health.
✅Establish a Baseline: It helps your vet understand what’s normal for your pet’s gut health.
✅Diagnose Other Issues: Can reveal bacteria, viruses, or poor nutrient absorption.
✅Targeted Treatment: Newer antigen tests can find infections missed by traditional methods, leading to better outcomes

Thank you Mobile Veterinary Specialists for joining in on our friend, Bear’s care!
So appreciative of all you do! 🐾

Our team, board-certified internist Dr. Linda Okonkowski, and her technician, Sam, had such a lovely visit with Bear during his ultrasound appointment at the always welcoming Pet Health Center. From the moment he arrived, Bear showed off his sweet, gentle personality, and he quickly became the highlight of our day.💙

He was incredibly cuddly, patient, and full of love which completely melted our hearts. Encounters like this remind us why we cherish the work we do. We hope he starts feeling better very soon. ✨

We also want to extend a big thank you to the entire team at DeWitt Pet Health Center for their warm hospitality and continued partnership. We appreciate you all so much and look forward to many more visits together! 🐾🤍
