Hi friends!

The heat out there is going to be extreme these next couple of days! Please be cautious of how much you are outside with your pets. Their health and yours is at risk.

Don’t leave your pet in your car- if you have to run errands leave them home!

Don’t walk your pet on the pavement unless it is early morning or late at night!

Please make sure your pet (and you!) have fresh cool water available.

Happy summer!

Though it is not yet National Pet Dental Health Month (February!) we wanted to share some images from a recent dental procedure we did.

Our sweet Papillon friend, Elton came in for a routine dental cleaning due to a buildup of tartar on his teeth. During his pre-cleaning radiographs a tooth root abscess was discovered (see image below). Elton was showing no symptoms of this infection - but dental infections can wreak havoc in the body affecting both kidney and heart functions.

Luckily we were able to eliminate this risk to Elton’s health due to his owners diligence in routine yearly dental cleanings. Elton went home with one less tooth, but a happy clean mouth!

Our staff had a visitor early this morning when they arrived for work! Our friend hung around for a bit before wandering off down behind Tractor Supply.

As a follow up from yesterday, we wanted to share a reminder of the dangers of walking your dogs on hot asphalt.

If you cannot hold your bare hand on the asphalt for at least seven seconds, then it is too hot for your dogs bare paws!
Paw pads can burn easily, much like the image we've shared below. We recommend walking your dog at the coolest parts of the day (sunrise and sunset) and opting for walks or hikes in grasslands. Ensure they have fresh water available at all times and the ability to rest in the shade if you are out and about!
