We are thrilled to announce that we are now offering Synovetin OA® ( OA), a revolutionary new treatment for canine elbow osteoarthritis!

This procedure can only be performed by licensed veterinarians at veterinary hospitals permitted to use internal radiation therapy. Discomfort in the treated elbow of some dogs has been reported, and can last up to 72 hours after treatment. Short-term home-care instructions must be followed after treatment to minimize extended close contact such as co-sleeping.

Common Pet Skin Issues in the Summer and How to Manage Them ☀️

1. Hot Spots 🔥
- Symptoms: Red, inflamed, moist patches on the skin, often painful and itchy.
- What to Do: Keep the affected area clean and dry. Trim the hair around the hot spot to prevent further irritation. Use a vet-recommended topical treatment to soothe the skin. If the hot spot doesn’t improve, consult your vet for further treatment.

2. Allergies 🤧
- Symptoms: Itching, redness, hot spots, hair loss, ear infections.
- What to Do: Identify and avoid allergens (pollen, grasses, certain foods). Bathe your pet regularly with hypoallergenic shampoo to remove allergens from their coat. Consult your vet for allergy testing and treatment, which may include antihistamines or steroids.

3. Flea Infestations 🍃
- Symptoms: Intense itching, redness, hair loss, presence of flea dirt (black specks) on the skin.
- What to Do: Use flea prevention treatments regularly (topical or oral medications). Treat your home and yard to eliminate fleas. Ensure all pets in the household are treated simultaneously to prevent reinfestation. Consult your vet for the best flea control plan.

Regular vet visits can help catch skin issues early and keep your pet healthy and comfortable all summer long. https://norwayvet.com/contact/
