Kanab Veterinary Hospital’s ‘First Aid for Pets’ Event – A Great Success! (Video has sound)
It was standing room only at last week’s First Aid for Pets event presented by Kanab Veterinary Hospital and generously sponsored by Kanab City Library.
The evening began with Dr. Breanna Isom DVM, and Dr. Tara Timpson, DVM, deftly tag teaming as they presented information about the most common ailments and accidents a pet owner may face. The presentation, at times dotted with a little appropriate humor, discussed what pet parents should be watchful for, the appropriate response to take and when it is time to seek professional help. The audience learned first aid basics addressing a wide range of conditions and situations such as how to bandage an open wound, how to perform CPR, which foods and common household products are poisonous to pets, what to do in the event of a rattlesnake bite, and the right and wrong way to address foxtails that have invaded your dog’s nose and/or ears, to name a few.
After the formal presentation, attendees were encouraged to visit the hands-on demonstration tables arranged around the room. The tables, hosted by Kanab Veterinary Hospital staff, supported each segment of the presentation with practical demonstrations and questions answered by experienced members of staff. Dr. Patti Patterson, DVM, hosted an “Ask The Vet” station for any questions not covered at the demonstration tables.
Our community’s enthusiasm and engagement during the demonstrations was infectious. One lady was overheard to say, “I am so glad to have learned the right way to do CPR on my dog, should I ever have to. I didn’t realize how hard I need to press on my large dog’s chest.” Another person remarked he didn’t know grapes are poisonous to dogs. Other comments heard from participants, affirmed that all the new information was much appreciated and it was nice to have existing knowledge affirmed.
Kanab Veterinary Hospital would like to thank
PET SAFETY – USE PET FRIENDLY CLEANING SUPPLIES
It’s almost spring-cleaning time, but household cleaning products introduce a number of toxins to the home. Soaps, bleach, polishes, and cleaners can irritate your pet’s skin and damage their gastrointestinal tract. Cleaning supplies, like a sponge or pipe cleaner, can also present problems when ingested by a curious pet.
🐾🐾🐾🐾
To thwart troubles before they start, opt for pet-safe cleaning supplies, store unsafe chemicals out of paws’ reach and consider child locks on cupboard doors. Be sure to keep your pet away from the areas where you are cleaning.
Have a happy and pet-safe spring clean!
I wonder what this young man will be when he grows up?😏😍

HAILEY NEPPL – GRADUATION CONGRATULATIONS AND BON VOYAGE
Kanab Veterinary Hospital is proud to announce that a highly valued member of our veterinary staff, veterinary technician Hailey Neppl, has recently graduated with a certificate in Equine Fascial Integration Therapy*, with an emphasis in Equine Biomechanics and Science. We are over-joyed for Hailey and for the opportunity offered to her in Greeley, Colorado, to work at a large animal, surgical and preventive care center. There, Hailey will begin as an equine technician where she will continue her education with hands-on learning and growth in the horse community. Hailey’s goal is to collaborate with veterinarians, farriers, trainers, and owners to be a part of the supportive care team for horses.
It is too, for all of us at Kanab Veterinary Hospital, a bittersweet moment of parting with Hailey. We are so proud of Hailey’s accomplishments and fortunate to have had her work alongside us for the past few years. We ask everyone to join us in congratulating Hailey and to wish her every success as she continues her journey in her chosen career.
*Fascial integration therapy helps the connective tissues release and reorganize, release compensation patterns and create more fluidity and "openness" in the body. Bodywork usually has tremendous results in reducing pain as the body can move more freely.
