If you think ticks are not out this time of year, think again!
These guys can be very annoying to your pets, but they also carry some serious diseases for them and potentially you too!
The good news is we have great preventatives to help protect your pets. And many ways to help you save cost as well! Give us a call or stop by.
We had front row seats for the Siloam Springs Christmas parade last night. What a great turn out!
We are just going to leave this here to brighten everyone's day.
We are excited to be getting a facelift at our front entry today! Our little pug friend on the wall looks a little bit concerned about the power tools, dust, and giant hole in the wall. Remember, if you are doing loud construction projects at home, to be sure your pets are safely removed from the area so they aren't breathing the dust and being scared by the sounds.
Here is a little reminder we found in our hallway after a tick-covered dog walked to an exam room. The ticks are bad out there! They are not only gross and creepy but they do also carry a lot of diseases. Examples include Lyme disease in dogs and Bobcat Fever in cats which is a particularly deadly disease! They carry diseases for you and your family too. Please let us know if we can help your pets with ticks and fleas. Prevention is our thing!
We had a patient test positive for heartworms on Wednesday. This video is a view through our microscope. In the middle area, the movement you see is a baby heartworm, called a microfilaria, in a drop of blood. Many times people decline to do the blood test for their dogs though we always recommend it. For dogs that test negative, we can start them on a monthly heartworm preventative so they don’t get this deadly disease. Bonus—the preventative also helps control fleas and prevents 4 intestinal worms!!
Pretty sure it doesn’t get more cute than these 3 week old kitties. We can’t wait to see you guys back in a few weeks for your immunizations!
Tick season is in full swing! These things are gross but they are also dangerous. Did you know ticks carry diseases that affect dogs, cats, and you too? Let us help you prevent them!
We thought everyone could use a pick-me-up.
We have precious patients!
Our patient Savannah had 2 beautiful Bengal babies. Congratulations momma!
The Christmas Parade tonight, right past the clinic, was great! We hope everyone had a fun time.
