Precious Brie and Blue, need dental cleaning, x-ray and CT to check for tooth resorption. If tooth resorption is present, may need gum biopsy to confirm lymphocytic plasmacytic gingivostomatitis. They are young, but Brie was having GI issues from possible gum infection.

😢 Cost with our rescue discount is still high: $1,711.00 for both cats. Surgery early next week. Donations are greatly needed and very appreciated to help Brie and Blue. All these high vet cost wipe out our donation funds.

Warning.

DAMNED IF YOU DO AND DAMNED IF YOU DON'T 💦🐕🛋️🛏️🤰🏻

Pesticide💦 exposure in and around homes raises long-term health concerns, especially for children. It has been linked to chronic conditions such as cancers, diabetes, reproductive and neurological disorders, and birth defects. These risks extend to veterinary health as well.

Spot-ons💦 like Fipronil & imidacloprid are highly toxic pesticides⚠️ that are no longer approved for use in outdoor agriculture but continue to be widely used in pet flea treatments, typically applied to the back of the pet’s neck (known as spot-ons) and used in poison baits for ants🐜 and cockroaches.

Studies show that households with pets treated for fleas and ticks may increase pesticide exposure in humans, particularly children👧, through direct contact or contaminated dust.

One study found that Fipronil can transfer from mother to unborn baby via the placenta, and exposure to fipronil’s toxic breakdown product, fipronil sulfone, during pregnancy🤰🏻 has been associated with reduced thyroid function in newborn babies as well as lower Apgar scores, a score used to test the health of a newborn.

Last week, our expert panel shared the chemical preventive options they would recommend if they had to choose just one. We also discussed how to safely integrate these treatments along with testing methods and detox protocols to keep your pet healthy and protected.

This week, we’ll explore how balancing your dog’s internal health—through the skin, liver, kidneys, gut, and immune system—can create a more flea/tick-resistant environment. You’ll learn how specific herbs and essential oils can support organ health and help naturally defend against fleas and ticks. Plus, we’ll share practical tips, recipes, and dosage guidelines for both internal and external herbal remedies.

Join our new panel of experts this Sunday on the Inside Scoop as they share expert insights on preventing flea and tick infestations while boosting your pet’s overall health.

In this episode we're covering:

🦟 Why some dogs attract fleas more than others

🦟 Herbs that support organ health

🦟 Essential oils for flea and tick prevention

🦟 PLUS: Download our episode guide with recipes for herbal rinses, infusions, sprays, a DIY flea powder, and much more!

Be sure to join us Sunday at 12pm EST for expert advice from our panel and remember over the next several weeks, we’ll continue bringing in expert insights on different aspects of flea and tick prevention!

Comment SCOOPERS and we'll message you the link to join Inside Scoop, a Planet Paws monthly subscription group, where all live podcasts are available to watch at any time. Plus, over 5 years of content including: past live podcasts, interviews, ebook downloads, and more!

New rescue sweetie, Gemma, 9 months. 🥰 Maybe Affenpincher and Schnoodle mix, 12 lbs She was at a shelter for many weeks and out of time Gemma is very skinny and has long legs so tall. She is gentle and friendly but with all the changes today, transport, vet care and new people, she was nervous. She was very dirty with urine and extremely stinky. Thanks to Tama Veterinary Hospital for bathing her Gemma needs time to relax and feel safe She seeks comforting and cuddling. Warming up fast at her foster home. 💜🥰 Will get her groomed soon.

🥰 Sweeties, Pumpkin and Tater, are waiting for their forever adoption homes.
One needs a foster home for one on one training and social outings so Tater can gain some confidence vs following Pumpkin. Both did well at showcase when sep with new handlers. Once comfortable, they are very friendly, cuddly and affectionate. All part of learning to socialize, training and meeting new people and dogs in new places for their adult life. Their siblings are all doing great in their adoption homes. All very smart and learn quickly.

Meanwhile, they enjoy adventure hikes and beach time with their dedicated foster home.

Oakland Animal Services is over-whelmed. 😢 They contacted us but we are full and juggling foster home high vacation time. We have no open puppy foster homes.

Please share. Need rescues, adopters and foster homes for over 50 puppies with ore coming in daily. This is happening at other city shelters. Lack of low cost or free spay and neuter. Accidental breeding and then the pups get dumped. More difficult with large breed pups and no large orgs have been helping. Volunteer Rescues groups are full and juggling foster home vacations.

Contact Oakland Animal Services for more details and info.
