E-collar PSA! We recommend E-collars after surgery and other procedures. They prevent the pet from licking at the incision, which can lead to infection or delayed healing. We also carry alternatives, such as soft donut collars and body suits! Your pet will be able to run, play, eat and drink, and use the litter box even with an E-collar. Incisions and wounds take 2 weeks to heal, so we recheck the incision to give you the all clear that your pet is fully healed.

Freckle, pictured here, got neutered today and he is back to playing already! Scroll to the last photo to see his demonstration of how NOT to wear an E-collar

April is Heartworm Awareness Month: It is springtime here in Astoria, which means many people are remembering it is time to start their dogs and cats on flea and tick prevention. We all know fleas AND ticks are bad here, but there is another parasite. People should be just as concerned about their dogs and cats getting, which is heartworm disease. Heartworm disease is spread by a mosquito bite, and it only takes one bite for a dog or cat to become infected. Even a 45-day gap in heartworm prevention can allow a heartworm infection!

It is vital that all dogs receive prevention year-round to block infection. Signs that your dog may have heartworms are coughing, labored breathing, and exercise intolerance. A blood test is needed to diagnose the disease. The old adage that prevention is better than the cure is true! Heartworms can be treated successfully if caught early. However, they usually cause irreversible damage to the heart. Our goal at Modern Vet Care is that every dog is on heartworm prevention year around to prevent this horrible disease.  ❤️
