Here at BVC, we've had a number of amazing veterinary assistants over the years who have worked hard in the field and at school to go on and pursue careers as veterinarians. It's always bittersweet to see them go, and today we said goodbye to Allie as she heads for vet school in Kansas! Please join us in congratulating Allie in this big but exciting change!

Wishing you happy trails, happy tails, and all the luck, Allie! We will miss you! 🐾

Wait!!! Before you head out for the fireworks and evening activities, did you remember to:

🎆 Update your pet's ID and microchip information?
🎆 Make sure all doors, windows, and fences are properly latched?
🎆 Provide your pet with a safe spot to retreat to that has a running AC, loud TV, or a noise machine?
🎆 Give your pet their "fireworks" medications?
🎆 Secure all trash and BBQ scraps away from your pet?

More pets go missing on the 4th of July than any other day of the year, so if you plan on attending fireworks displays or setting some off yourself, please think of your pets. They don't know what those loud noises are and may try to run if they're frightened enough. If your pet doesn't tolerate loud noises, please keep them home and in a space where they can safely retreat to. Also make sure that BBQ scraps are properly disposed of away from your pet, especially if you had anything with bones or corn cobs!

Happy 4th of July to all!

Brewer Veterinary Clinic will be closed today so our staff can celebrate America's 250th Birthday with their friends, families, and pets. If your pet needs true emergency care, please call ahead to Eastern Maine Emergency Veterinary Clinic in Holden at 207-989-6267 to see if they are able to take in any more patients. They have had a very busy morning already, so please be patient and kind. They may not be able to help your pet or may have to divert your pet to another clinic south of us.

We're coming at you today with a triple threat of information. It's hot out there. Oppressively hot. It's not just the temperatures, but the humidity in combination with the high temps make it feel warmer than the thermometer indicates. It's currently 90 degrees, but feels like 98 degrees.

Today is not the day to go for a hike, take your dog for a car ride, or enjoy a walk on the asphalt. It's a day where everyone should be drinking lots of water, trying to stay cool, and conserving energy. You should also be keeping an eye out for signs of heat stroke, especially in dogs that are young, old, obese, or brachycephalic (short nosed).

Everyone stay cool out there. Drink lots of water. Take breaks if you have to be outside. Stay in the shade. Treat yourself to something cool (and your pup too, in moderation).

And don't forget to call a veterinarian if something seems off with your pet today. Stay safe, everyone!

We're entering into a stretch of potentially dangerous weather over the next few days where the chances of heat stroke for humans and pets is very real. Temperatures will be pushing or exceeding 90 degrees with high humidity depending on your location, so please be sure to take extra precautions to avoid an emergency trip to the ER or vet clinic.

Things not to do:
❌ Leave your pet in the car (yes, even with the AC running)
❌ Decide the next few days are a good days to take up hiking with your pet
❌ Keep your pet outside without access to water and shade for long periods of time
❌ Walk your pet on pavement, concrete, or any other hot surface
❌ Forget your secret bag of M&Ms in the center console. Again.

Things we suggest you do:
✅ Leave your pets at home where they can lounge on the couch
✅ Look at reels of people hiking with their pets for inspiration to go hiking with your pet when the weather is safe to do so
✅ Limit outdoor time and potty breaks (and no zoomies!)
✅ Keep your pet in shady, grassy areas to protect their sensitive toe beans from burns
✅ Bring your favorite veterinary team ice cream sandwiches when you stop at the store to get yourselves a lil' treat too

(The last one is optional, I guess... but *highly* encouraged)

Our biggest thing on our list of suggestions, though, is to educate yourself on the signs of heat stroke and what to do if you suspect your pet is suffering from heat stroke. It takes *less than 15 minutes* for a dog to die from heat stroke, so please monitor them closely over these next few days!

Happy Monday! We had some visitors from the Brewer Fire Department come to teach your favorite veterinary staff about fire safety, how to use a fire extinguisher, and when it is safe to use one. Some of our team even got the chance to use an extinguisher to put out a fire under the supervision of the Brewer FD team! Just another way our team is dedicated to keeping each other and your pets safe while they're in our care.

Thank you to the Brewer Fire Department for helping our team and patients stay safe!

Deceased kitty found in Brewer. A black and white, intact male with no microchip was brought in by a good samaritan. He was found near the Day Rd. If you think he may be yours, please give us a call, 207-989-6531.

Just a careful reminder before all the dog parents head out on a walk this afternoon and evening - be mindful of your dog's paws and where you're walking!

Temps are a bit on the steamy side and looks like they will be for this evening, so please be sure to keep your dogs away from asphalt and concrete. It *will* burn their paws!

If you can't walk down the street or even to the end of your driveway without feeling like you're walking on hot coals, your dog can't either. Stick to grassy areas tonight or stay closer to home. No big hikes, backyard zoomies, or strenuous walks, either. Temps like these can cause heat stroke to creep up faster than you think!

Each year, the second Tuesday in June serves as a bittersweet reminder of the animals we've shared our lives with and are no longer with us.

Today is World Pet Memorial Day, a day for us to reflect on the joy our animal companions brought us when they were by our sides. They may no longer be with us, but the memories of muddy paws, tail wags, soft purrs, whisker kisses, and all the happy days spent together will live on in our hearts.

May the memories of your beloved animal friends keep their spirits alive until we are reunited with them at the Rainbow Bridge 🐾🌈

If you have any stories or photos of pets you would like to honor today, please share them with us in the comments below.
