You may have seen recent news reports about the New World screwworm, a parasite that has recently been detected in parts of the southern United States. While this parasite can affect livestock, wildlife, pets, and, in rare cases, people, there is currently no reason for pet owners to panic.

New World screwworm is the larval stage of a fly that lays eggs in open wounds or body openings. The larvae feed on living tissue, which can lead to serious infections if left untreated.

The good news is that there are several steps pet owners can take to help reduce risk. Certain veterinarian-recommended parasite prevention medications may provide an added layer of protection against the New World screwworm for pets. While no preventive product can guarantee protection against New World screwworm, parasite control, along with prompt attention to wounds and skin issues, are among the best ways to help protect your pet.

We recommend regularly checking your pet for wounds, skin irritation, or signs of discomfort, especially if they spend time outdoors. If you notice a wound on your pet, please contact us immediately.

This serves as a good reminder of the importance of routine wellness exams, especially during the summer months when your pet is spending more time outside. If you notice anything unusual or have concerns about your pet's health, don't hesitate to bring them in for a check-up. When in doubt, our team is here to help.

🐾 Curiosity Drives Better Vet Care 🐾

Curious Bam Bam being captivated by fish on a computer screen is a fun reminder of something we value every day at SNCC: curiosity.

At our clinic, curiosity helps us look beyond the obvious, ask the right questions, and better understand each pet’s unique needs.

Whether we’re investigating subtle changes in behavior, exploring the cause of a health concern, or finding the best treatment plan, a curious mindset leads to more thorough and compassionate care.

Just as pets explore the world around them, we stay curious so we can continue learning, growing, and providing the highest quality care for our patients.

Because in veterinary medicine, curiosity isn’t just a trait—it’s an essential tool for helping pets live healthier, happier lives. 💙🐾

Why are dental radiographs such an important part of a Comprehensive Oral Health Assessment and Treatment (COHAT)?

Because what we see above the gumline is often only part of the story.

In these images, the tooth appeared completely normal during the oral examination. There were no obvious signs of damage visible to the naked eye. However, dental radiographs revealed significant disease hidden beneath the surface that would have otherwise gone undetected.

Studies show that a large percentage of dental pathology in pets is found only on dental radiographs. This is why full-mouth dental X-rays are considered the standard of care during a COHAT. They allow us to evaluate the roots, surrounding bone, and structures below the gumline to identify painful conditions that cannot be seen during a visual exam alone.

By combining a thorough oral examination with dental radiographs, we can diagnose and treat hidden disease, helping pets live more comfortable, healthier lives.

And after treatment? Plenty of comfort, cuddles, and recovery support from our team ❤️

Dental disease is often silent, but advanced diagnostics help us uncover problems before they continue causing pain.

Schedule a dental consult with us today to discuss your pet’s oral health. Early detection and treatment can make a big difference in your pet’s comfort and quality of life. 🦷❤️
