๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿพ Halloween Pet Safety Tips! ๐Ÿพ๐ŸŽƒ

Halloween is full of fun and treats โ€” but it can be a little tricky for our pets! Keep your furry friends safe and stress-free this spooky season with these reminders:

๐Ÿ‘ป Practice costume safety: Costumes should never limit movement, hearing, vision, or breathing.
๐Ÿซ Keep sweets out of reach: Chocolate and other candies can be toxic โ€” ASPCA Poison Control (1-888-426-4435) if your pet gets into any treats.
๐Ÿšช Watch the front door: Trick-or-treat traffic and costumes can cause stress and lead to escape attempts.
๐Ÿ—‘๏ธ Throw wrappers away: Foil and cellophane can cause serious digestive issues if eaten.
๐Ÿ”– Double-check IDs: Make sure collars and microchips are up to date in case your pet slips out.

๐Ÿ’Š If your pet needs a refill of their anxiety medication (like Trazodone or Gabapentin), please call the office today before 4PM so our team has time to get it filled for you before the evening festivities.

Stay safe and have a pawsitively spook-tacular Halloween! ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ•ธ๏ธ๐Ÿˆ

๐Ÿฉธ Why Do We Recommend Annual Bloodwork & Parasite Testing? ๐Ÿฉบ

Your pet canโ€™t tell you when something feels โ€œoff,โ€ but routine testing can! Annual bloodwork helps us check vital organs like the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and thyroid, while a CBC gives us insight into infection, inflammation, and overall health.

We also recommend f***l PCR testing, heartworm testing, and tick-borne disease screening to keep your pet protected inside and out.

Learn more about what these tests tell usโ€”and why early detection mattersโ€”in our latest blog post ๐Ÿ‘‡
๐Ÿ“– https://www.southpawac.com/why-pets-need-bloodwork

As your petโ€™s healthcare team, our goal is to help them live a long, healthy, and happy life. One of the most important ways we do that is through annual bloodwork and parasite testingโ€”even if your pet seems perfectly healthy.

๐Ÿ“ฃ What Is a Veterinary Technician? Why Titles Matter ๐Ÿพ

Just like CNAs arenโ€™t nurses, nurses arenโ€™t doctors, and pharmacy technicians arenโ€™t pharmacists, a veterinary technician is not a veterinarian.

In Alabama, โ€œLicensed Veterinary Technician (LVT)โ€ is a protected title under the Alabama State Veterinary Practice Act. That means the legal title of LVT is reserved only for those who have:
๐ŸŽ“ Completed an AVMA-accredited program
๐Ÿง  Passed the VTNE and state boards
๐Ÿ“š Maintain continuing education

The correct and legal title for someone assisting in a clinic without those credentials is unlicensed veterinary assistant.

Every role in a veterinary hospital matters โ€” and each has a specific scope of practice to keep your pets safe. ๐Ÿ’™

Ask yourself:
โ“ Who is monitoring your petโ€™s anesthesia?
โ“ Who is performing your petโ€™s dental cleaning?

If the answer isnโ€™t a Licensed Veterinary Technician, those procedures are being done outside of Alabama law.

Title protection isnโ€™t about ego โ€” itโ€™s about safety, accountability, and the advancement of veterinary medicine.
