Bear is a puppy who is known for ingesting all types of things around them home - when his parents became suspicious that he ingested an entire Nylabone he was rushed here for evaluation. Our doctor order radiographs which did not reveal any obvious ingestion but we advised them to be cautious as not all materials are visible on X-ray images. Bear was sent home to monitor for signs of sickness such as vomiting, diarrhea, and lethargy. Bear was a pleasure to work with and a reminder that puppies are always keeping us at the edge of our seats. Have you ever had a puppy or dog ingest something that may not have been considered digestible?

🚨Toxicity Tuesday🚨
Year after year one of the most common toxicities continues to be chocolate. The most common time of year to be extra mindful is always going to be holiday seasons where chocolate is gifted, especially Halloween where the volume of chocolate may be greater than another holiday.

July is national lost pet prevention month. This is a good chance to learn about some ways to keep your pet safe under the roof of their home and off of the scary streets searching for food and shelter.
🐶Microchip Your Pets: A microchip contains your contact information and can be scanned at shelters or veterinary clinics to reunite lost pets with their owners
🐾Collar and ID Tags: Ensure pets wear collars with up-to-date identification, including phone numbers and addresses
😺Supervise Pets Outdoors: Always monitor pets when they are outside to prevent them from wandering off
🐶Secure Enclosures: Check fences, gates, and doors to prevent pets from escaping
🐾Use GPS Trackers: Devices like Tractive allow real-time tracking of pets, enhancing recovery chances if they go missing
😺Keep Current Photos: Regularly updated photos help identify pets quickly if they are lost

If you have lost a beloved pet to the wide world of outside be sure to check with your local humane society often. Leave something with your scent on it outside so that they can smell their way home if they are close by. Go out searching frequently and be sure to search at night. Pets may scavenge for food when it is dark out and there are less scary things around. Be careful leaving food out as this may attract predators that will scare your pet away. Call around to local vets to get the word out and a good old fashioned "have you seen my cat" flyer works well too.

We hope you never experience not knowing where your pet is but hopefully this helps if you do. 🥰

National KITTEN day is celebrated today annually to bring awareness to kittens in need of homes. With how many stray cats are out there the overpopulation of kittens and cats in shelters is a very real. Today we encourage you to go to your local shelter and meet all the kittens out there that could be yours. At a minimum they would apricate the company and the opportunity to meet someone new.
We would also like to take the chance to remind everyone to SPAY and NEUTER your cats to ensure that we are not adding to the overpopulation epidemic.
😻😻😻

🚨Toxicity Tuesday🚨
This week's toxicity case features a cute French Bulldog named Coco. Coco ingested a block of bromethalin- a common household toxin used for mouse control. Bromethalin is a neurotoxin that if ingested and absorbed can cause symptoms such as hyperexcitability, confusion, tremors/seizures, hyperthermia, coma, and in the worst cases, death. There is NO ANTIDOTE for bromethalin. Luckily Coco's care takers found the incident quickly and brought her to our facility for us to induce vomiting. She vomited up a large portion of bright green fluid- an indicator that she did in fact ingest the poison. Coco was not allowed to absorb most of the toxin after this and she was discharged with a single dose of activated charcoal to prevent absorption by whatever might be left over after vomiting. We are so happy for Coco that her ingestion of poison did not end up being significant and she was able to go home to her family. Look how cute she is while eating her charcoal 😀
