Dog Owners: You are probably hearing a lot about the mysterious respiratory illness that is affecting dogs across the country. Here are a few things our veterinarians want you to know to keep your pets safe:
• Be vigilant in monitoring your dogs for signs of illness after boarding, holiday travel, or other activities where pets may have commingled with others. If a dog develops a cough or lethargy, a veterinary visit should be recommended.
• Make sure all of your dogs are up-to-date on all of their recommended vaccines including distemper combination (distemper, hepatitis, parainfluenza and parvo), Bordetella, and canine influenza.
• Reduce contact with large numbers of unknown dogs when possible. Just like with other respiratory diseases, dogs that are co-mingled may be at greater risk for developing the illness.
• Keep sick dogs at home whenever possible (unless taking them to the veterinarian for examination or treatment). Social settings carry inherent risks of disease spread.
• Avoid communal water bowls shared by multiple dogs.
• Be aware that brachycephalic breeds (those with flat faces) seem more susceptible to the negative effects of this illness.

Meet Emma
This poor girl was found along the roadway. Middle age Schnauzer Mix. She looks like she had a hard life. Mammary tumors, matted hair so tight and bad teeth. Right now she is at the vet to start the process of getting better. Bloodwork will tell us more. We will do our best to make her feel better. Hopefully we can help her and she can live a pain free life full of love and happiness. We will keep you updated.

If you are cold, your pets are too! Keep them inside as much as possible as temperatures go down.

Bundle them up when you take them outside and wipe their paws after walks.
