The great outdoors can be a wonderful place to be! Let’s talk about some camping and hiking safety tips for your furry companion:
Drop a photo of your camping/hiking buddy ⬇️
🦟 Fleas, Ticks, & Mosquitoes… oh my!! These pesky pests can cause serious diseases in our pets and most can be prevented. Every pet should be on a heartworm, flea, and tick preventative year round. We carry many options, so reach out and see what would be best for you and your pet!
🦠 Blue-Green Algae can be very toxic or even fatal to dogs. This can be found in many different bodies of water like ponds, rivers, or lakes. It’s important that you don’t let your dog drink or swim in water that contains it. DNR often has a list of parks or water sources where it has been tested for.
🐝 Bees, Wasps, or Hornets (sometimes referred to as “spicy sky raisins”) seem like a fun idea to our dogs to try and catch, until the consequences of that action occur. These can be very painful, and can cause swelling of the face or body. If facial swelling is ever noticed contact a veterinarian immediately so we can help make sure your pets airway is safe and clear!
🌷Some plants & even wild mushrooms can be toxic to our cats and dogs. They can range in side effects from stomach upset to seizures, or even be fatal in some cases. It’s best to prevent them from taking any bites off any plants.
🐍 Snakes & other wild animals can pose serious harm or injury to our pets. Always be sure to do your research on your location for what could be venomous or what wildlife could be around on your adventures. Bite wounds can be painful and cause infections in our pets, with snake bites some can be fatal if they’re venomous.
⛺️Camping Tips ⛺️
🌲 Pack in & pack out, whatever you bring into nature make sure you take home with you or dispose of appropriately.
🌲Bring a first aid kit for you & your furry friends, you never know what you’ll end up needing
🌲Follow all leash laws! This helps keep your pet safe & other animals safe.
🌲Make sure your pet has their ID: make sure their microchip is up to date on your contact information & they’re wearing their dog tag

🌊 Pet Pool Safety 🐾
☀️As the summer heat continues to rise in our area, it's natural for our furry friends to join in on our summertime fun. However, it's important to ensure their safety, and today we’re talking about water safety!
Check out the tips below & share a photo of your water loving pet in the comments ⬇️
🧪Chlorine & other chemicals that pools are treated with can be harmful. Ingestion can lead to stomach upset, vomiting, and even severe health issues.
🚿Skin & coat health can be affected with prolonged exposure. This can cause skin irritation because it dries out your pet's hair coat. Remember to rinse them off with fresh water after swimming to reduce residual chemicals.
💧Risk of ear infections increase due to moisture that gets trapped in your pet's ears. Use a veterinary recommended cleaning solution with a drying aid after each swimming session.
🛟Always supervise them around the pool! Not all pets are natural swimmers, and even experienced swimmers can tire and then struggle to exit the pool. Make sure your pool has easy entry and exit points.
🏝️While saltwater pools are generally safer for pets than chlorinated, ingesting large amounts of saltwater can still be harmful leading to salt poisoning which requires immediate veterinary attention.
🦺Consider using a pet life jacket for those who are not strong swimmers, when on a boat, or for long swim sessions. A life jacket can make it easier to spot and grab your pet if they fall overboard.
💦 Always provide fresh drinking water to discourage pool water consumption, and help with hydration in the summer temps
🩺 Monitor your pet for signs of distress or illness during and after swimming, seek veterinary care immediately with any concerns
Have fun, stay cool, and follow us for more tips on keeping your pet safe this summer! ☀️

🚨 Hot Weather = Hot Pavement 🚨
Did you know that asphalt and concrete can heat up higher than the temperature outside?
Here's a quick test: hold the back of your hand on the pavement for 7 seconds. If it's too hot for you, it's too hot for your dog's paws! 🐾
Tips for Keeping Your Dog's Paws Safe:
✅ Walk earlier or later in the day when it's cooler outside
✅ Use paw protection like dog booties can help protect paw pads.
✅ Walking on the grass only instead of the pavement.
✅ Check your dog's paw pads daily for signs of irritation.
✅ Try indoor enrichment games. (Keep an eye out for our post this week with fun ideas 👀)
✅ Opt for activities in or near water.

🐾🌟 National Heartworm Awareness Month 🌟🐾
Did you know that heartworm infections aren't limited to any particular season? 😲 That's right! Mosquitoes, the carriers of heartworm disease, can be active all year round, putting our furry friends at risk regardless of the weather outside.
But here's the good news: prevention is key! ❤️🔑 Investing in year-round heartworm prevention is not only crucial for your pet's health, but it's also much more affordable compared to the costly and harsh treatment that follows if your pet becomes infected.
At Lincolnway Veterinary Clinic, we're committed to keeping your furry companions safe and healthy. Reach out to us today to learn more about the importance of heartworm prevention and how we can help you keep your pets protected all year round. 🐶🐱
To shed some light on this important issue, we're sharing an insightful infographic courtesy of the American Heartworm Society. Check it out below! 👇

It's National Siamese Cat Day! Show us your Siamese if you please!

Oh my goodness! look at this friend, they have a heart! 😍
With it being heartworm awareness month, we want to remind you why it's important to have your pet's heart protected!
Heartworm disease is a serious disease that results in severe lung disease, heart failure, other organ damage, and death in pets, mainly dogs, cats, and ferrets. It is caused by a parasitic worm called Dirofilaria immitis. The worms are spread through the bite of a mosquito.
Myth: Heartworm isn't an issue unless you live in a warm climate.
Fact: Heartworm is transmitted by mosquitoes – so warm, muggy areas are certainly hotbeds, but infection has been reported in all 50 U.S. states. If a mosquito carrying heartworm larvae bites your dog – one bite is all it takes!
As HEARTWORM Awareness Month is here, we want to remind everyone to give your dogies/puppies their preventive medicine for heartworms.
8 weeks is when you typically start their preventative care for heartworms.
The American Heartworm Society recommends that puppies and kittens be started on a heartworm preventive as early as the product label allows, and no later than 8 weeks of age. Puppies are started on a preventive when they weigh at least two pounds. The dosage of a heartworm medication is based on body weight, not age.
Although there are fewer mosquitoes in the winter, there is still a risk that your pet could get heartworms if you stop giving heartworm prevention medication during this season. That's one reason veterinarians strongly recommend pets receive heartworm prevention medication year-round.
Keep your babies safe everyone!! Heartworms are no fun. 🪱🙃
