Do's and Don'ts for your pets regarding warm summer temperatures:

* Do not leave your dogs unattended in a vehicle. Even on a 70-degree day that doesn't seem hot to you, that's 110 degrees inside your vehicle! Your vehicle can quickly reach a temperature that puts your pet at risk of serious illness and even death. Cracking a window does NOT make a difference.

* If your pet has to be outdoors, make sure it has plenty of shade throughout the entire day and plenty of fresh, cool water. Add ice cubes to the water throughout the day. Some dogs enjoy chewing on ice cubes so you may want to offer a few on the side also.

* Do not walk your dog unless it is early in the morning or early evening. Test the walking surface. If you are unable to hold the palm of your hand on the walking surface for less than 10 seconds, you will end up burning your dog's pads of his feet. Let your dog walk on grass as much as possible. Also, limit your pet's exercise. Especially brachiocephalic (pushed in face) dogs, overweight dogs, and dogs with heart conditions.

* Do not shave your pets coat if they are a breed that is not meant to be shaved. Even though a thick coat seems warm to you and I, it does provide insulation for your dog. Also, they can get sunburned after being shaved.

* SIGNS OF HEAT STROKE INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:

- Heavy panting and unable to calm down, even when lying down
- Brick red gum color
- Fast pulse rate
- Unable to get up

* IF YOU SUSPECT YOUR PET HAS HEAT STROKE:

- Take their temperature rectally.
- If the temperature is above 105 degrees, cool the animal down
SLOWLY. Place the dog in a tub of cool, NOT COLD, water and
place damp, cool towels on the dog. Bringing the dog's
temperature down too quickly can cause it to go into shock.
- Stop cooling the animal when the temperature reaches 103
degrees Fahrenheit.
- Seek immediate medical attention as soon as possible as heat stroke can lead to severe organ dysfunction and damage.

Bayshore Vet Clinic's PET OF THE MONTH, for March, is.... "EDDIE"

Eddie is a Black Domestic Shorthair Feline who happened to show up on his owner's front porch one day. The best decision Eddie ever made! He is approximately 2 years old. His "girlfriend" Valarie, also a stray, moved in with Eddie one year later. It has been true love ever since. When he is not at the gym or walking with his mom, his other hobbies include chasing and snuggling with Valarie and mom. Eddie isn't one to indulge in human food. He likes to maintain a steady diet of food for cats only. Another good decision!
In Eddie's spare time he enjoys being brushed, almost to the point of becoming a hairless cat. He also enjoys hiding in boxes and testing the laws of gravity by batting anything and everything off the counter. Eddie's mom says that he is the sweetest cat ever! He never leaves her side, stays in the yard when he's allowed outside, and is very kind to all humans. Eddie loves his mom and Valarie very much.

Congratulations Eddie on being Bayshore Vet Clinic's Pet of the Month. We hope you enjoy your prizes!!! 😻

BAYSHORE VET CLINIC'S PET OF THE MONTH IS 🎉 "LUNA" 🎉

Although we have had a previous Pet Of The Month named "Luna", this "Luna" is our very first FELINE Pet Of The Month.

Luna is a Calico, Domestic Shorthair who was adopted from the Menominee Animal Shelter. She has a sister named "Muffin" who is also a Domestic Shorthair and was also adopted from the Menominee Animal Shelter. Luna is approximately 10 years old. Her hobbies include sitting on top of the sofa and watching birds at the bird feeder. In her spare time she enjoys playing tag with her sister and following her owner into the kitchen to supervise his cooking. Luna's favorite human treats include: cheese, cream cheese, ice cream, and occasionally a little taste of braunschweiger. She follows her owner everywhere, like a puppy, and tries to race him to the favorite chair and claim it for her own before he sits down. Luna's favorite toys include a bouncy ball, a feather on a stick, and chasing small balls around the house.

Her owner adds, "We just got her at Christmas but already she has given us joyful spirit in our retirement years".

Congratulations Luna on being Bayshore Vet's Pet Of The Month! We hope you enjoy your prizes! ❤😻😽

Today, February 23rd is International Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day!!!

They say every dog has its day, and guess what? That day has finally arrived. Every year on the 23rd of February, International Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day is celebrated. “Dog treats/biscuits” originally consisted of old food that humans simply didn’t want. Moldy bread, bones from some meat or other scraps. It wasn’t until the 19th century that treats made just for dogs became a thing.

One way to celebrate this day, even if you aren’t a dog owner, is to make a donation of dog biscuits to a local animal shelter.
Another way to celebrate your dog’s special day is to make them homemade biscuits, cuz “Nothin says lovin like somethin from the oven”. We asked our technician Debbie, if she would share her homemade dog biscuit recipe with us. She agreed, so please check it out. Your dog will be happy you did!

DEBBIE’S HOMEMADE DOG BISCUITS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees & spray cookie sheet with cooking spray

1 Container of chicken livers (if your dog is allergic to chicken,
can use beef)
½ Container (that livers came in) of water
3 Eggs
½ tsp Cloves
1C Flour
1C Cornmeal

Blend chicken livers, water, eggs, and cloves in a blender until smooth. Pour into bowl. Add flour and cornmeal to liver mixture and mix well. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Let cool, then cut into squares & freeze. When you want to give one to your dog just pop it in the microwave for approximately 10 seconds.

Remember biscuits and other snacks should only make up 10% of a dog’s daily calorie intake or dogs can become overweight. 🐾❤

Today, February 19th, is International Tug-Of-War Day

Tug is a great game to play with your dog, but it’s important to keep a few rules in mind. Here are a few basic rules to follow when playing tug with your dog:

Your dog must know a “drop it” or release command. This will help you stop the game if necessary.
Use a dog toy that is long enough to keep your dog's teeth away from your hands. The toy should also be flexible and durable.
Keep the toy put away when you’re not using it. It’s a game that you initiate when you want to play.
Teach your dog that he can only grab the toy when you give permission. Hold the toy up or off to the side; only begin the game once they sit. After they sit and wait you can encourage him to “take it”. If your dog hasn’t played tug before he might be reluctant. Let him grab onto it and gently move the tug from side to side encouraging him to pull.
Don’t pull upwards; only tug from side to side. Pulling up on the tug can injure your dog’s spine.
As your dog gets more excited he might begin to growl; this is normal behavior. If you feel that your dog is getting too excited or intense, take a break.
If your dog’s teeth come in contact with you, the game should stop immediately. Say “Ow” or let out a yelp and tell the dog to release the toy. Once your dog is calmly sitting down and waiting to begin again you can tell them to “take it” and start tugging again. If they let their teeth touch your hand again it’s ok to stop the game for the day. They will eventually learn to be extra careful when grabbing the tug.
Do not let children play tug with your dog unless you are supervising to watch for signs of over excitement.

Some people ask, “Will playing tug with my dog make him/her aggressive?” The answer is no. It will also not make your dog think that you are weak or less dominant if you let him win. If you let your dog win an occasional game it will make her enjoy it even more, and it’s a great confidence builder for them. No one wants to play a game that they can never win.

It also satisfies prey instincts. It’s a great way for your dog to get some physical exercise and use excess energy, either inside or outside the house. The collaboration in the game helps build and support a good relationship with your dog. For some shy dogs, playing tug-of-war helps build confidence and trust in people.

So be sure to take some time out of your day today and play tug with your dog. They will be glad you did.

Bayshore Vet Clinic's PET OF THE MONTH is "STELLA"!!!

Stella is a 20 month old Husky/German Shepherd mix who was adopted from the Menominee Animal Shelter last June. She has 2 fur siblings, "Kodiak" & "Peaches", who were also adopted from the Menominee Animal Shelter. (Kodiak, a 3 yr old Lab/Husky mix & Peaches, a 5 yr old Calico Cat) Stella's hobbies include playing with Kodiak, leaning against "her people" to get attention, and escaping into the woods. Her favorite forbidden human food includes pizza crust and meat scraps. She also likes to eat any bird seed that the birds and squirrels are willing to share. As far as any "quirky" habits, Stella likes to announce the arrival of her favorite people by howling. Her favorite toys are any toy that
Kodiak happens to be playing with and hard chew toys, such as Benebones and antlers. Her mom would like to add that Stella's favorite outdoor game is "hiding" behind trees and bushes, then leaping out at Kodi as he runs by.

Oh Stella...You are quite the character! Congratulations on being our PET OF THE MONTH! We hope you enjoy your fabulous prizes.

WINTER TIP OF THE DAY...

ANTIFREEZE...ANTIPLEASE...
Antifreeze has the highest fatality rate of any toxins seen in pets. Only a small amount is needed to be lethal. 1 Tbsp of antifreeze can cause severe, acute kidney failure in dogs. 5 Tbsp can kill a medium sized dog. For cats, 1 tsp can be fatal. Antifreeze can leak from your vehicle without you even knowing. Check where your vehicle is parked to make sure there isn't any fluorescent fluid on the ground. If you notice any, try to rinse it away or cover it up. Please do no let your dog drink out of puddles or walk through any bright colored liquid, as it can also be ingested by pets licking their paws. It also has a sweet taste which attracts pets.

Winter is a great time to play outside in the snow with our pets, as long as we are aware of the surroundings and temperature. It's also a great time to stay inside and be warm and cozy. Maybe invent indoor games or teach your pet some new tricks. Whether you're an outdoor enthusiast or prefer not to deal with cold and snow, your pet is always the happiest when they are with you.
🐾🐾❤

02/02/2024

WINTER TIP OF THE DAY...

SKIN & COAT CARE: With the furnace running more often you may notice your pets itching and scratching more. The dry air tends to dry out the skin and coat. Keeping a humidifier running will help with this. Also, keep bathing to a minimum during the winter months. You may also want to add Omega 3 or Fish Oil to your pet's diet. Please check with your pet's doctor before doing so. 🐾🐾❤

01/29/2024

WINTER TIP OF THE DAY....

"Talk To The Paw"

Pet's paws are another area that need to be addressed during the winter months. Salt and other chemicals used to melt snow and ice can irritate a pet's paws and mouth, if they lick their paws. Paws may also bleed from snow or encrusted ice.

"What Steps Can I Take To Keep Their Steps On Track"? 🐾🐾

You can start by only using pet safe salt around your home. If your pet may have potentially walked on a salted surface either dip their paws in a bucket of shallow, warm water or use a damp cloth to wipe the pads and between each toe. You can also use petroleum jelly or booties to protect sensitive paws before you go on a walk.

01/26/2024

WINTER PET TIP #3

Never let your dog off leash during a snowstorm. Dogs rely heavily on their strong sense of smell to get their bearings and know where they are. During a storm or when snow and ice blanket the ground, these smells get covered up and it's easier for your dog to get disoriented. They can become easily lost. More dogs are lost in the winter than any other season. This is one more reason to make sure your pets are microchipped.

Another problem that snow and ice present for dogs are cruciate ligament injuries. Often dogs, when off leash, will wander into terrain that their owners are not walking on. If there is ice under the snow, a slip, turn, or pivot can cause re-injury or a first time injury to the cruciate ligament. Be aware of the surface your dog is playing on, especially off leash. 🐾🐾

Sedation vs Anesthesia

01/22/2024

ARE HYPOTHERMIA & FROSTBITE THE SAME THING?
Hypothermia is more serious than frostbite. When exposed to cold temperatures, your pet's body begins to lose heat faster than it can be produced. Prolonged exposure to cold will eventually use up your pet's body's stored energy. Frostbite is harder to detect and may not be fully recognized until a few days after the damage is done.

IF MY PET BECOMES HYPOTHERMIC, WHAT SHOULD I DO UNTIL I CAN GET IT TO A VETERINARIAN?
First of all NEVER submerge the pet in warm water or use heating pads. You do not want to raise the body temperature too quickly. Wrap them in blankets as soon as possible. Throw more blankets and towels in the dryer to warm them and keep replacing as needed. If you are able, check their temperature every 10 minutes. Keep applying warm blankets until the pet's temperature reaches 100 F. Seek professional care as soon as possible.

Please share your pictures, in the comments, ways that you keep your pets warm in the winter months. Maybe decked out in their winter jacket or just all snuggled up under a blanket. We'd love to see them! 🐾❤

01/19/2024

WINTER SAFETY TIP OF THE DAY...

Please keep your pets indoors. Once the temperature falls below 32F, cats, small dogs, dogs with thin coats, young, old, or sick dogs could be in danger if they spend too much time outdoors. Frostbite can occur in as little as 15 minutes. Do not leave dogs in cars, as cars can act as refrigerators that hold in the cold and cause animals to freeze to death. Also, bang on the hood of your vehicle or toot the horn before starting it to make sure there aren't any feral cats trying to keep warm under the hood.

Keep checking our page for more helpful winter tips for your pets.

01/12/2024

Bayshore’s Pet Of The Month is River!!!

River is a 6 year old Golden Retriever who came from a breeder in Escanaba, MI. She has two Golden Retriever siblings. “Jasmine” who is 12 years old and “North” who is 15 months old. River’s hobbies include: Dock Diving (she has a Dock Diving Senior Title), swimming, playing fetch FOR HOURS, running with the four wheeler, and taking walks with her dad. Her favorite human food is ice cream.

Cute things that River does is suck on her big stuffed animals. Her dad refers to this as her stress ball. She also likes to rest her head on his leg while he’s eating, hoping that something good might drop her way! River is also very fond of her chuck it ball and chewing on Benebones.

Oliver is a 7 year old, English Springer Spaniel. He is a beautiful boy! His owner got him from a breeder in Traverse City, MI. Oliver is an only fur child. His hobbies include being chased by his human dad and going for car rides with him. Oliver's dad tells us that his favorite human food is animal crackers and that he likes barking at EVERYTHING.

WERE THERE DOGS AT THE VERY FIRST THANKSGIVING??? 🐾🤔

There were two dogs that came over with the pilgrims. One was a Mastiff and the other, an English Springer Spaniel. The Spaniel was used for hunting and the Mastiff was used as a guard dog.
