Cheaper, quicker, and designed to catch emergent issues, a point of care ultrasound (POCUS) looks at your pet's bladder, kidneys, spleen, and gall bladder to see what care they might need. Dr. Lisa breaks it down.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month - a time to raise awareness, show support for those impacted by breast cancer, and remind people about ways to detect and fight breast cancer as early as possible. We can do these things for our pets, too!

We most often see breast cancer (called "mammary gland cancer") in female pets who haven't been spayed until later in life. The easiest way to reduce their risk of mammary gland cancer (and many other health issues!) is to get them spayed when they're young. For most cats, that's about six months. For dogs, timing can depend on their breed and size, so it's best to discuss the ideal spay timing with your primary care veterinarian. Together, you can make the best plan for your pet's long-term health.

Ultrasounds pass soundwaves through your pet and create an image based on how fast or slow those soundwaves return to our machine. We get a super detailed look at what's going on inside your pet, with no health risks!

Corn cobs? Nerf darts? Plastic? An ultrasound can quickly find some objects an X-ray can't, for when your pet ate something they shouldn't.
