Happy National Dog Day!🐾
In honor of National Dog Day here are pictures of our team's dogs. Let's see if you can match the team member to the dog!
Team members:
Dr. Mack, Dr. Still, Dr. Tori, Niki, Lakyn, Amber, Logan, and Amy.

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN!!
Bring your farm cats to the clinic by 9am and we will spay or neuter them, all cats get a Rabies vaccine (flea/tick prevention, dewormer, and additional vaccines available upon request for added cost). Cats will be good to go home at the end of the day.
No proof of vaccine or sterilization will be provided.
Must call to reserve a spot!
We hope everyone is having a great first week back at school! Dr. Mack has gone back to school too. She will be teaching a class at Fort Hays State University this semester!! Have a good school year to all students and to Dr. Mack!
We had a fun start to our week with PUPPIES on Monday!!
Charlie is an adorable Irish Setter pup who loooooves cuddles.
Taya is an 8 week old Boerboel who already weighs 20 pounds!! Looks at those feet!!
We love seeing your puppies and helping you get them started to live a long healthy life!!
We want to thank the Rooks County Fair Board and Rooks County 4H clubs for having a great fair this week!!
Our team members went over whenever we had a chance to watch kids showing, enjoying the entertainment and exhibits and all had a great time!!
Dr. Still was busy again judging rabbits and poultry on Wednesday (thank you Rooks County 4H Facebook for the pictures!)

The new chart helps ag producers detect signs of heat stress in cattle, often before it gets serious

Anxiousness
Excessive panting
Restlessness
Excessive drooling
Unsteadiness
Abnormal gum and tongue color
Collapse

The summer heat and sun won't be letting up any time soon, so make sure your equine friends are adequately protected from harmful UV rays. ☀️
Hot summer weather puts horses at risk not only for dehydration and heat stress but also the skin damage and discomfort that accompany a sunburn— just like humans.
A lot of equestrians love some chrome on a horse, but it's important to remember that those beautiful white markings and the non-pigmented pink skin underneath are more likely to suffer from sunburn, especially in areas where the skin is more sensitive — like around the eyes and the nostrils.
In addition to the pain and discomfort, horses that are prone to recurrent sunburn may also face other long-term consequences, like the increased likelihood of developing squamous cell carcinoma (a common cancer).
If your horse is susceptible to sunburn, contact your veterinarian for more information about sun damage and recommendations to keep your horse protected this summer.
Charcoal Covered?!
Logan had the distinct pleasure of assisting one of our more energetic patients with charcoal.
We feed charcoal to certain patients in intervals to help bind toxins (usually that the pet or stock ingested). In this case, some moldy plant material led to a suspect Penitrem A ingestion, which causes tremors, weakness and can lead to dangerous or fatal seizure activity.
Combinations of oral activated charcoal, medications, intralipid therapy, muscle relaxants and supportive care is determined by our doctors....and this patient did so well....Logan wore some of the charcoal!
We are hiring in Phillipsburg!
Full or part time hours.
Our operating hours are 8:30a-5:30p Monday through Friday and 8:30a-12p Saturdays.
We are looking for motivated individuals who love animals and want to be part of a team.
Please send resume and cover letter to [email protected] or apply at the link!

Beware!
Fireworks season is upon us! We are all for celebrating Independence Day...but we ask everyone to be conscious of the noise and debris!
We found the below item blown into our cattle facility - which definitely is a hazard for moving cattle, the safety of our team and not exactly safe for eating - which cows would try!
Nothing beats the summer heat like a lake trip with the whole family!!
Be sure to check before you head out to see if the lake is in a watch or warning status for a Blue Green Algae bloom. https://www.kdhe.ks.gov/777/Harmful-Algal-Blooms
As of June 21st Webster Lake is in a Warning and the Rooks Co State fishing Lake is in a Watch.
Swimming in or drinking in water contaminated with blue green algae can be toxic to dogs. Symptoms appear within 15 minutes to 1 hour after exposure and can include: vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, pale gums, collapse, drooling, difficulty breathing, disorientation or confusion, seizures, and can lead to death.
If you have been or are at the lake and notice any of these symptoms starting please call!!
Everyone can enjoy the lake just be sure to keep your dog from drinking contaminated water and rinse off well with clean water once exiting the lake from short swims. Have a safe, fun time!!
NOW is the time to get your pet in if these tactics do not work for keeping them calm on the days before and after fourth of July.🎆🎆🎆
We have appointment spots available, just give us a call!

Cheetgrass/Foxtail Problems?
This invasive plant can be a serious pain, literally!
The seeds imbed and bury themselves in toes, ears, noses and all other unpleasant places!
This poor pup had a draining tract between her toes that required removal, bandaging, and care. She is on the mend!
Preventative care includes picking those buggers off your pets and shaving fuzzy feet clean...especially anything with wire hair.

Easter FUN! A little late on the posting, but we had some Easter Egg Hunt FUN last week.

No worries, docs are proud and monitoring the yet to be found eggs! #vet #vettechlife #vettech #vettechsofinstagram #veterinarian #ruralliving #mixedanimalvet #eastervibes easter
