🛑Let’s talk about PET ALLERGIES with nurse Jen & our beautiful patient Ruby!

💀What is an allergy?
An allergy is a state of over-reactivity or hypersensitivity of the immune system to a particular substance called an allergen. Most allergens are proteins from plants, insects, animals, or foods.

Types of Allergies in Pets:

🌳Environmental (Atopic Dermatitis):
Just like with people, dogs and cats can be allergic to grasses, trees, weeds, molds, dander, dust.

🐤Food Allergies:
Food allergies or hypersensitivity most commonly develop in response to the protein component in the food (chicken, beef, dairy, eggs, and other sources of protein). Food allergies can develop at almost any age.

🚬Air Pollution in Cats:
Cats are particularly sensitive to air quality and can develop respiratory issues like wheezing or difficulty breathing. This is known as feline asthma and can be caused by cigarette smoke, aerosols, fragrances, or poor air quality.

🕷Fleas:
Flea bites can be itchy to most animals. However, some are very sensitive and develop flea allergy dermatitis.

❗❗Does your pet have allergies?
Here are signs to look out for indicating your pet might be suffering from allergies:

• Itchiness
• Hives and swelling of the face,
ears, lips, eyelids, or earflaps
• Diarrhea and vomiting
• Itchy, runny eyes and sneezing
• Chronic ear infections

If your pet has any of the above symptoms, please consult with our veterinarians. There are many causes of the symptoms mentioned above, including and excluding allergies. Our vets can help you determine the cause and will help you come up with a treatment plan so your pet can live a happy and healthy life🐶😺.

🥰💕Our lovely patient Wednesday getting a much needed TLC from nurse Jen! Wednesday receive a dental cleaning today and is ready to show off her pearly whites!🦷

Have you ever wondered why pets need dental cleanings? As it turns out, there are several reasons why regular dental cleanings are so important for your pet's health. Keep reading to discover the most important benefits of dental cleanings for pets 🔽

◾Preventative Care:
Dental cleanings are the best way to prevent dental diseases and other oral health issues like gingivitis, periodontal disease, and tooth decay. By removing plaque and tartar buildup from your pet's teeth, their chances of developing oral health problems will be greatly reduced.

◾Pain Relief:
Dental cleanings can also help to relieve any pain your pet may be experiencing due to an existing dental issue. During the cleaning, any infected or diseased teeth will be removed and the remaining healthy ones will be polished. This will help reduce inflammation and improve your pet's overall comfort level.

◾Improved Overall Health
Regular dental cleanings can help improve your pet's overall health in several ways. For example, tartar buildup can cause bacteria to enter the bloodstream, leading to infection and other serious medical problems. By removing this buildup, your pet will be less prone to these types of issues.

🐶😺Overall, regular dental checkups and cleanings are essential for keeping your pet's teeth and gums in good condition – and their whole body too! So, make sure to take your pet for regular checkups to help ensure they stay healthy and happy.

Say Hi to Flash and nurse Estef! 🐶🤗

Taking care of a pet is a huge responsibility, and it's important to make sure you're doing everything you can to ensure your furry friend is healthy and happy. Here are seven tips to help you be a responsible pet parent:

✅Provide Proper Nutrition:
Make sure your pet always has access to fresh water and food that meets their specific dietary needs. Talk to your veterinarian about what type of food is best for your pet, based on their age, size, and activity level.

✅Give Them Plenty of Exercise:
Exercise is crucial for our pets! Make sure you give your pet plenty of opportunities for physical activity each day. Walks, runs, trips to the dog park, or even a simple game of fetch in the backyard. And if you're a cat parent, interactive toys and games like laser pointers, puzzles, and feather toys can help keep your kitty entertained and active.

✅Groom Them Regularly:
Grooming keeps your pet looking great while also helping them stay healthy. Brushing your pet's coat regularly not only prevents mats and tangles, but also removes dirt, debris, and excess fur.

✅Schedule Regular Vet Visits:
It's important to bring your pet for regular check-ups so any health issues can be detected and addressed early on. Make sure you stay up to date with vaccines and other preventive care measures to keep your pet healthy and safe.

✅Train Them Well:
Training your pet ensures that they understand boundaries and basic cues such as "sit" and "stay". This helps keep them safe and makes life easier and more enjoyable for both of you.

✅Make Sure They're Properly Identified:
If your pet ever gets lost, proper identification is key to getting them home safely. Make sure they always have a collar with up-to-date contact information and that microchip is registered and contain current info as well.

✅Give Them Love and Attention: Spend quality time with them, playing, snuggling, or just hanging out together. This will help you create a bond that lasts a lifetime.

With these seven tips, you'll be well on your way to raising a happy and healthy pet! 🥰🐶😻

Our sweet patient Baloo got neutered recently and since February is Spay and Neuter Awareness Month, we want to remind you that getting your pet fixed is one of the best things you can do for your furry friend!🤗

🐶BETTER BEHAVIOR:
One of the best benefits of getting your furry pal spayed or neutered is better behavior. Pets tend to be much calmer after being fixed. Spaying and neutering can also reduce aggressive behavior in both dogs and cats. Plus, pets that have not been fixed are much more likely to spray.

😺LOWER CHANCE OF CANCER:
Your pet will reap several health benefits after having been spayed or neutered. Getting your furry friend fixed will reduce or eliminate the risk of certain cancers, such as ovarian and testicular cancer. Studies have also shown that animals that have been fixed tend to live longer than intact pets.

🐶LESS ESCAPE ATTEMPTS:
If your dog or cat is intact, they are much more liable to try to run off in search of a mate. This can be very dangerous, and is one reason many beloved pets get lost. On the flip side, your furry pal also won’t be attracting unwanted attention from other animals.

😺REDUCE UNWANTED LITTERS:
There are thousands of sweet, adorable pets in shelters who desperately need loving homes. Making sure your pet doesn’t contribute to those numbers is one way that you can help promote good animal welfare.
