With heat waves sweeping across the country, blue-green algae is appearing in new areas and posing an increased risk to pets.

Found in lakes, ponds or any source of standing water, it’s extremely toxic and consuming it can be fatal. The best way to prevent accidental poisoning is to keep a close eye on pets when they’re around water.

If you think your pet has been exposed, take them to the nearest emergency veterinary hospital and contact the ASPCA Poison Control at 888-426-4435.

Hello! I am Kooda, a four-year-old Frenchie partially paralyzed in my hind legs. My previous owners surrendered me because they could not cover my medical expenses. I'm a sweet and loving girl who loves zoomies and tummy rubs. I require specialty care before going to a new home. And I need help paying for my slipped disk surgery and MRIs.
I am currently under the care of VCA Silver Lakes Animal Hospital, and they're working very hard to find me a loving home. Any amount helps and I'm very grateful for your donations! WOOF https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-kooda-pay-for-surgery?utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link_all&utm_source=customer

Has your dog had a change in their behaviors? Changes can mean there could be a problem with summer season infections that are easily spread. Leptospirosis in dogs is a bacterial infection that spreads through the bloodstream. Dogs can get leptospirosis from puddles or bodies of water that carry urine from infected wildlife. Dogs that are most at risk for getting canine leptospirosis include:

- Hunting and sporting dogs

- Dogs that live near wooded areas

- Dogs that have spent time in a kennel

Canine leptospirosis can be a serious, life-threatening disease so call us at VCA Silver Lakes Animal Hospital (954) 441-1001 to make an appointment if you suspect your pet needs to be diagnosed.

Known for our industry-leading medicine, at VCA we don’t just use cutting-edge tools and best practices, we develop them!

Does your dog suffer from arthritis or nerve damage? Cold laser therapy is a non-invasive and pain free treatment. Cold laser therapy uses beams of light to stimulate cell regeneration and increase blood circulation.

Following treatment, pets experience less pain and swelling of the affected area, allowing for an increase in range of motion, mobility, and healing.
