We’re back again with the doggie dynamics. Today’s episode has some great tips & tricks to get your dog prepared for a visit with us!
When planning a hike or visit to a state park with your pet, here are three top tips to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience:
🏕️Check Park Regulations: Before heading out, make sure to check the specific rules of the state park you plan to visit. Some parks may have restrictions on where pets are allowed, and others may require pets to be on a leash at all times.
🐕🦺 Prepare Your Pet: Ensure your pet is physically ready for the hike. This includes having all necessary vaccinations, being in good health, and having a sturdy 6-foot leash. It’s also wise to bring along a pet first-aid kit, dog booties for rough terrain, and a portable water bowl.
🚮 Practice Responsible Pet Ownership: Always clean up after your pet by carrying p**p bags. Respect wildlife and other hikers by keeping your pet under control and away from sensitive areas. Also, be mindful of the environment by not allowing your pet to drink from standing water sources
Remember, these tips are just a starting point. Always prioritize the safety and well-being of your pet and the natural surroundings you’re enjoying together.
Happy Caturday PAH family!
It's Woof Wisdom Wednesday! Join Dr.
Clark and returning guests Corine & Pita as they explore the wonders of a settle mat. 🐶
This episode is packed with tips on how to utilize a place for your dog to go and settle when company arrives or during stormy weather and fireworks. You won't want to miss it! 😎
Summer is in full swing! ☀️Don’t forget these important tips:
1. **Never leave your pet in a parked car**:
- Even for a minute! The temperature inside a vehicle can rise rapidly to dangerous levels.
- On an 85° day, a car’s interior can reach 102° degrees within 10 minutes and 120° degrees after 30 minutes.
- Irreversible organ damage or death can occur. Always take action if you see a pet left inside a hot car
2. **Watch the humidity**:
- High humidity amplifies the negative impact of high temperatures on pets.
- When animals pant, moisture from their lungs evaporates and helps reduce body heat. However, high humidity hampers this process, leading to rapid increases in body temperature.
3. **Limit exercise on hot days**:
- Adjust the intensity and duration of exercise according to the temperature.
- On scorching days, limit exercise to early morning or evening hours.
- Be especially cautious with short-nosed breeds (difficulty breathing).
- Avoid walking pets on hot asphalt to prevent burns on their paws. Grass is a better option.
- Always carry water to keep your dog hydrated
4. **Provide ample shade and water**:
- Whenever your pet is outside, ensure they have protection from heat and sun.
- Add ice to water during heatwaves.
- Tree shade and tarps are ideal because they don’t obstruct airflow.
- Avoid relying solely on fans; they don’t cool pets as effectively as humans
Stay safe & cool this summer!😎

⚠️ Trigger Warning: Surgery ⚠️ Our Customer Service Reps don’t often get to see the surgical action, so we caught their reactions as they watched an aural hematoma being zapped away with our CO2 surgical laser! (For those wondering, an aural hematoma is a blood-filled swelling on the ear, often caused by trauma or ear infections.)
