With the weather getting warmer here’s an important reminder that once the temperature reaches even just 70 degrees dogs or cats could be at risk of heat stroke.
What is heat stroke you may ask?
It is a life threatening condition where the body temperature increases to a point where organ failure, and even death could occur.
Signs of heat stroke can include…
~Panting
~Restlessness
~ Red gums and or tongue
~ Increased heart rate
~Vomiting and or diarrhea
~ Lethargy
~Confusion
~Collapse
~Sezuires
Please do not leave your animals in the car with the weather getting warmer especially without the windows down or the AC going for your animal.
When walking your animal on hot pavement it’s a good idea to touch your hand on the pavement and see if it is too hot. (If it’s too hot for you to walk barefoot on the pavement, than it’s too hot for your animal.)
Make sure during the hot weather your pets have access to fresh water and shade. That is the best way for animals to stay cool and hydrated.
Happy Friday!
Porcupines are out! 2 weeks ago we had 4 dogs who got quilled all before 11 AM! Please keep your dogs on a leash. 🐶 🐕🦺🦮🦔
The porcupines do most of their activity at dawn and dusk so be aware!
~ Please do not cut the quills it makes it harder to remove them.
~ MYTH … (Quills will work themselves out.) NO they will not, they have tiny barbs on the shaft of the quill making them easier to move into the skin rather than outward.
~ Please do not remove the quills yourself. It is extremely painful for the animals without sedation. Attempting to remove them can result in your pet struggling, which can push the quills in deeper.
~ If your animals gets quilled do your best to prevent your animal from rubbing its face. Rubbing can cause the quills to become deeper making it difficult or sometimes impossible to remove them. If you happen to have a e collar try that until you can get to your local veterinarian.
~MYTH… Lastly a lot of pet owners think that if your animals get quilled once they will learn not to do it again… Unfortunately that is not the case most animals do not learn from their mistakes. The best thing to do is to not let your pet free roam around dawn and dusk.
Happy Thursday!
Look at this little cutie who came into visit us a few weeks ago for her routine visit her name is Nahla!
Can you guess her breed?!??
We don’t see to many of these dogs in the practice. So we were very excited to see Nahla!
…. If you guessed Shiba Inu you were correct!
In 2004 in Japan there was a Shiba who by the name of Mari saved her 3 puppies, and woke up her owner from an earthquake that had just happened! They ended up making it a movie called “ A tale of Mari and her three puppies.”
Dogs are pretty amazing creatures 🤩
We will be closed for Memorial day on Monday the 27th! Make sure to get your food and medications before then! Happy holidays ☺️ 🐶 🐱
Happy Saturday everyone!
Look how cute Holly is! She is a Basset Hound who came in for her yearly check up 🐶
FUN FACT
There is a reason why Basset Hound’s ears are so floppy! 🤪 As they trot across the ground their ears waft the smell they are tracking directly back in their face. While the loose skin helps to trap the smell.
Neat right?!
“Hey …. ahhh… Im Kellie the Boxer and I’m here and ready to check in for my appointment today!” 😂
Kellie was to cute 🖤
One fun fact about Boxers is one holds the world record in 2002 for having the LONGEST TONGUE in the WORLD! 🌎 The dogs tongue was 17 inches long!
Crazy! 🐶
Toddy came in to work today to get her routine blood work checked which was perfect! She is a very confident cat who loves the attention, and to strut her beautiful self around the exam room. We just love her🖤 If you guessed she was a Maine C**n cat you would be correct!

Good morning everyone! We wanted to show you all one of the coolest breed of dogs that come into the clinic! 🐶
This is Pig and Pepperoni! (And family)
These two dogs are called Xolo’s. Or full name Xoloitzcuintli. These are “hairless” dogs but some like these two do have some hair.
FUN FACTS
Back in the olden days people used to think these dogs had “healing powers” ☺️ They were believed to be infused with a healing type of energy that could be passed on into humans. Since they are a hairless type of dog they emit more body heat than a dog with fur, and back then the warmth could feel like magic on a cold day or night. Fascinating right?!
There are not to many dogs like these that walk into our clinic so we wanted to share them with you all!
One of our technicians Kylie just loves to see them when they both come in!
Hey guess what?! YES we are accepting NEW CLIENTS!
We have 3 great Veterinarians who offer quality care and services to each pet and client.
We are booking out a few weeks for routine visits. We do ask if you could bring your pets records with you to your appointment, or tell us which veterinary clinic to call so we can get your records for you before your appointment.
We can’t wait to see you and your pets🖤🐶🐱
Hope everyone enjoyed the eclipse! ☀️ 🌕 We sure all did here at work!
