Feel Good Friday ❤️

One of the best parts of veterinary medicine is helping pets feel better and improving their quality of life.

Whether it is managing chronic pain, treating infections, helping a diabetic pet stabilize, or giving a senior pet a comfortable mouth again after a dental cleaning — these moments matter.

Thank you for trusting us with your pets and allowing us to be part of their journey. 🐾

Wound Care Wednesday 🩹

Not all wounds are “just a scratch.”

Even small punctures or cuts can trap bacteria beneath the skin and lead to painful infections or abscesses.

Things to monitor:
🩹 Swelling
🩹 Redness
🩹 Drainage
🩹 Limping
🩹 Licking at the area

Please avoid using peroxide repeatedly, as it can delay healing. If your pet has a wound you are concerned about, let us take a look before it becomes a bigger problem.

Ear Infection Awareness 👂

Is your pet shaking their head, scratching at their ears, or developing a funky smell? It could be an ear infection.

Ear infections can be extremely uncomfortable and are common this time of year due to allergies, moisture, and swimming.

Signs to watch for:
👂 Head shaking
👂 Ear scratching
👂 Red or swollen ears
👂 Odor or discharge
👂 Sensitivity when touched

Please do not use over-the-counter medications without an exam. Some ear issues can worsen if the wrong medication is used.

Let us help get those ears feeling better. ❤️

Hot Spot Alert 🔥

Hot spots can appear FAST and become painful before you know it.

These irritated, moist skin lesions are commonly caused by:
🐾 Allergies
🐾 Fleas
🐾 Moisture trapped in fur
🐾 Excessive licking or scratching

If you notice red, inflamed skin, hair loss, odor, or your pet constantly chewing at one area, do not wait. Hot spots can spread quickly and become infected.

The sooner we treat them, the easier they are to manage. ❤️

Senior Pet Spotlight 🐾

As our pets age, their needs change too. Did you know that dental disease is one of the most common conditions we see in senior pets? Bad teeth can lead to pain, infection, difficulty eating, and even impact the heart, liver, and kidneys.

A dental cleaning can dramatically improve your pet’s comfort and quality of life. We often hear owners say their pet acts years younger after a dental procedure. ❤️

Signs your senior pet may need a dental evaluation:
🦷 Bad breath
🦷 Difficulty chewing
🦷 Dropping food
🦷 Pawing at the mouth
🦷 Decreased appetite

Let us help keep your senior pets comfortable and happy in their golden years.
