Our staff had a great time today at Cornell Vet School open house. What a great event for kids and anyone wanting to learn more about vet school. The kids got to dress up as veterinarians, suture up their stuffed animals in the Teddy Bear ER, operate an endoscope to remove objects from a dog that ate things he shouldn’t, pet and learn about all kinds of animals and much more. We also got to attend a tick race!

Good info to know should your dog be choking.

Many don’t know this information! Remember every second matters during a choking incident.
1. Place the dog on their back. Brace the back against the floor. Straddle the dog while adjusting yourself based on the size of the dog. Position the head in “in-line position” with the airway parallel to the floor.
2. Make an open diamond shape with your hands. Place your thumbs on either side of the trachea below the ball or object. Grip the “V” of the jaw using lip/cheek to protect fingers.
3. Push with a J-stroke down and out against the ball until it ejects from the mouth.
Both this method and the Heimlich method has been proven to work in these scenarios so don’t hesitate to save your dog.

Sharing this info can save a life. This is more common than you would think and is heartbreaking.

With the holidays coming, our glass ornaments can be a nice way to memorialize your pet. Your pet’s actual paw or nose print can be engraved on the ornament.

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed the lovely weather! Before we purchase new items, we wanted to share that we are in need of large towels, blankets, or comforters for our patients. Don’t worry about stains or frayed edges; we’re prioritizing comfort and warmth. If you have any to spare, please feel free to drop them off with Katie at the front desk on Monday, Wednesday, or Thursday. Thank you for your generosity!
