⚠️After five years our post about the dangers of corn on the cob is still circulating on social media🌽‼️
The photo below were corn cobs that we surgically removed from a patient of ours five years ago. It’s not pretty to look at but it’s a reality that happens way too often in veterinary.
We cannot stress enough the importance of discarding corn cobs in the trash far away from your pets‼️
Dogs love the corn but it's the cob that causes the issues. These cob chunks can hang out in the stomach for some time before moving into the small intestines where they usually get stuck.
So please keep these as far away from your dogs as possible, especially with the holiday this weekend!

Another day, another reminder❤️💙
Keep your pets safely indoors during fireworks!!

Did you know that more pets go missing on July 4th than any other time of the year? They bolt from yards, homes, cars, backyard BBQs, and firework celebrations. Let’s change this now!

Join me in reimagining the way we celebrate! While fireworks may dazzle some, they pose a tragic risk for many, from our beloved pets to veterans and others who suffer from PTSD.

Keep your fur kids safe:

First and foremost, if you are attending firework displays—LEAVE your pets at home where they feel most secure. Or better yet…

Stay home and snuggle up indoors (don’t forget pet ID tags!) and shield them from the overwhelming noise.

Pets might resort to desperate measures to find safety, so take precautions—don’t leave gates and doors open, shut pets behind closed doors when answering the front door, crate and use a leash for more control.

Increase the ambient noise with soothing music or white noise to help drown out fireworks.

Close curtains to create a cozy and serene environment.

There are many natural calming remedies to help soothe an anxious pet’s nerves without reaching for pharmaceuticals with harmful side effects. It is very hard to recommend any particular one because every pet is unique. I’ve personally given my pups L-theanine, Bach’s Rescue Remedy, Melatonin, and CBD with varying degrees of success. I encourage you to do some research on any of the following: Valerian, L-Theanine, Bach’s Rescue Remedy, Calming treats and biscuits with a combination of calming supplements, CBD /H**p oil (which can also help with joint pain), and Melatonin. And PLEASE share your suggestions in the comments below!

Extreme anxiety cases may call for professional guidance‚ consult your veterinarian for prescription sedatives if necessary.

Let’s create a world where every celebration includes the happiness and security of EVERYONE, including our cherished pets. Together, we can make a difference. Choose love, choose safety, and make this year’s festivities a joyous occasion for all, both big and small! x0Amy

ATTN CANINE PARENTS🐶🐕🐕‍🦺🐩
Our clinic is excited to announce that we are now carrying Credelio Quattro!!

✅This product is an all-in-one preventative for flea, tick, heartworm, tapeworm, roundworm, hookworm (the only thing it does not cover is whipworm). It's a chewable tablet, beef flavored and allergen free, given monthly (for dogs only, and there is no topical version). It can be used in puppies starting at 8 weeks and at least 3 pounds.

✅The product covers lotilaner (flea and tick), moxidectin (heartworm), praziquantel (tapeworm), and pyrantel (roundworm, hookworm).
✅It's safe for ivermectin sensitive dogs (collies, herding breeds, etc) and dogs that are already heartworm positive, and it is the most comprehensive product on the market. It does have to be given with food, which increases the bioavailability of the lotilaner.

✅It also has the fastest rates of tick kill. It starts killing fleas within four hours and ticks within four, and in 8 hours is 98.7% effective for ticks and >99% effective for fleas. 100% reduction in fleas and total household elimination in 60 days. It's 100% effective at preventing heartworm in one dose, >97% effective for hookworms and roundworms and 100% effective for tapeworms in one dose.
✅This is proven safer and more effective than other all-in-ones like Simparica Trio or Nexguard.

✅There are instant point-of-sale rebates of $30 off a 6 pack and $65 off 12 doses.

✅The company gives a satisfaction and efficiency guarantee. They will replace or reimburse for vomited doses within 2 hours, if the dog doesn't like it or won't eat it, etc. They also will pay for any testing or treatment if the dog comes down with anything it covers, and will also pay for whipworm cases.

✅We will be offering free puppy doses (this promotion has no end date), free single doses if you switch from another product and buy your first 6 pack (this promotion is only until the end of August), and free second 6 packs if your dog is oversized and needs two sizes (this promotion is only until the end of august).

If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to us at 834.1636☎️
