Tonight a woman was bit on the leg by a coyote while walking her dog on the golf course nearby being built out for housing. Coyotes don’t usually bite people especially adults but be careful out in their territory at night.

Does anyone remember Basil? He turned 15 on Sunday. Happy birthday to him woof woof :)

Happy Easter! We are here for you if your critters get into mischief today.

Always supervise your pets around their favorite toys. Even if the sign says durable and indestructible, these toys can still be chewed apart and become an intestinal obstruction.

Does anyone know what's wrong with this puppy?

03/23/2023

Please don't assume your dog will automatically pass the sock just because he's done it before. Bring them in ASAP to induce vomiting.

We don't do ear cropping at our hospital, but we do fix the ones that end up infected.

Have you met our visitor? He normally strolls out in the early morning near the fountain.

Coyotes are prevalent right now. Please ensure that your dogs and cats are safe! Do not let cats outside. Do not let dogs outside without immediate supervision. Coyotes will jump into backyards.

‘Tis the season for dogs to eat your chocolate so keep it locked up out of reach.

Blood can look opaque pink when it contains fat like after eating a meal. If it stays opaque then fat is not being processed which can happen with pancreatitis. If blood is yellow and clear that can happen when no food has been ingested in a long period and bilirubin is not being processed by the liver. Normal plasma is clear as shown on left.

Avoid access to bones that can get stuck on jaw. Anesthesia may be necessary to remove the object.

11/19/2021

Avoid any toy your pet can chew apart. Many chunks do not pass well through intestine and need surgery to remove.

11/01/2021

Avoid candy, wrappers, candles, glow sticks, raisins, grapes, beads, strings, metal with zinc and lead, cars, overeating sugar, choking, caffeine, and of course chocolate.

Happy Halloween! Be safe, keep pets away from chocolate, candles and cars.

10/21/2021

Halloween is less than 2 weeks away! Here are a few safety precautions you should take during this time of year!

Chocolate poisoning poses a serious danger to dogs, especially at Halloween. Many dogs are attracted to the smell and taste of chocolate. In general, the darker and more bitter the chocolate, the more toxic it can be. Two to three ounces of Baker's chocolate can make a 50lb dog very sick. It can take upt to 1lb of milk chocolate to cause toxicity in that same 50lb dog. White chocolate rarely causes true chocolate poisoning because it contain lower amounts of methylxanthines; however, its high fat content may result in pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas).

If you think your dog may have ingested chocolate, call your veterinarian immediately. Untreated chocolate poisoning in dogs can result in vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, agitation, increased thirst, an elevated heart rate or seizures. These clinical signs usually occur within 6/12 hours of ingestion.

With Halloween chocolate and candy comes another hazard to cats and dogs: candy wrappers! Ingestion of foil or wrappers can cause life threatening bowel obstruction, which may require surgical intervention. Watch for vomiting, decreased appetite, no defecating, straining to defecate, or lethargy.

October is here and with that means Halloween! We will be posting frequent safety precautions that are prevalent during this time of year!

Pets can easily overeat and ingest large amounts of sugary, high-fat candy that can then lead to pancreatitis. This is a potentially fatal problem and one which results in severe abdominal pain. Pancreatitis may not show up for one to four days after the pet ingests the candy. Signs include decreased appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, abdominal pain and possibly kidney failure or organ damage.

Toe nails can grow into the pad. The mail can also keep growing and enter the nail bed. Trim the nail and remove embedded pieces of nail. Keep nails especially dew claws trimmed to prevent pain and breaking. Broken nails can bleed a lot. Use powder and pressure to stop bleeding. Some nails must be trimmed under anesthesia. #nails #dognails #dognailtrim #ingrowntoenail #brokennail #sandiegovet #emergencyvet #er4pets
