GeniusVets Your trusted pet health resource created to educate and unite pet owners and veterinarians.💛
(5)

Our mission is to create better pet health by providing a platform that educates and unites pet owners and veterinarians. Today, pet care starts online – pet owners are seeking real-time information. Unfortunately they don't always find the best information, from the most trustworthy sources. While we respect the efforts of independent bloggers, product companies, and others who want to tell their

story to pet owners, we've found that one of the most important voices in pet care is being drowned out – the voice of the DVM who has the knowledge, training and experience to ensure the best care for pets. Through GeniusVets.com and our network of independent veterinary practices using our technology in their local areas, our platform reaches millions of pet owners – educating them, empowering them, and connecting them with their local veterinarian for the best possible care.

While a pet’s departure can leave behind a silence that's both deafening and deeply felt, the impact that they have on our lives can last long after they’ve passed on – our pets truly leave a paw print on our hearts. 🐾With the inevitability of our pets passing on one day, many choose to embrace their pet’s memory and imagine the next step of their journey: The Rainbow Bridge.🌈

Did you know that 15% of all dogs will experience hot spots at some point in their lives? If you own a dog, you've probably heard of the term "hot spot." A hot spot, also known as acute moist dermatitis or pyotraumatic dermatitis, is a localized area of inflamed, infected skin. These red, oozing, and often painful lesions can appear suddenly and spread quickly, so getting your pup into the veterinarian as soon as you see any irritation is important!

When you adopt a dog or cat from a shelter, they have most likely already received some degree of medical care. But there’s no guarantee on what procedures or vaccines your new pet has received. It is crucial to follow up with your veterinarian soon after adoption as a thorough veterinary examination is necessary to establish a comprehensive health baseline for your new pet and will help identify any underlying health issues. 🐾

Within their first few months of life, puppies are rapidly growing and expending quite a bit of energy to do so, which means they need more calories, protein, fats, vitamins, and minerals. 💛⁠ ⁠ Size and breed considerations are important during the puppy stage, as larger and smaller dogs can benefit from specially formulated diets to ensure proper development of their bones, muscles, and joints. ⁠ ⁠ But again, there won’t be a singular solution to what you should be feeding your puppy, as there isn’t a “one-size-fits-all” nutrition plan. During your first few vet visits with your new puppy, be sure to ask your veterinarian for recommendations on types of food and feeding schedules to dial in your puppy’s nutrition and set them on a path for good long-term health.⁠ ⁠ #geniusvets #pethealthresource #pethealth #petcare #doghealth #dogcare #dogfood #dognutrition

Urinary blockages in cats can turn a routine day into a critical emergency. Alarmingly, it is estimated that up to 10% of male cats may experience a urinary blockage at some point in their lives. ⁠ ⁠ Urinary blockages, or urinary tract obstructions, are like a clogged pipe within your cat’s urinary tract. When a blockage or clog occurs, it prevents urine from exiting the bladder, leading to an accumulation of urine that can't escape. ⁠ ⁠ This buildup increases pressure within the bladder and can cause it to become distended and, in severe cases, even rupture. The resulting backup of urine also leads to an increase in toxins within the cat's system, which would normally be filtered through the kidneys and expelled via the cat’s urine. This toxic buildup can lead to a dangerous condition known as uremic poisoning.⁠ ⁠ If left untreated, the increased pressure and toxins can cause rapid deterioration of the cat's health. Kidney damage can begin, further complicating the cat's ability to remove wastes from the blood. Without intervention, this situation can lead to kidney failure, severe metabolic disturbances, or even fatality within 24 to 48 hours if not treated immediately. #geniusvets #pethealthresource #cathealth #catcare #cattips
