☀️🐶🐱 As the temperatures rise here in Chattanooga], PetMedic Urgent Care wants to remind all pet parents about the often-overlooked danger of hot concrete! 🌡️ Your pets paw pads are sensitive, and those seemingly harmless surfaces can cause painful burns.

Imagine walking barefoot on a blazing hot day – that's what it can feel like for our pets! Even a quick walk can lead to injuries.

Simple ways to keep those paws safe:

Test the pavement: If it's too hot for your bare hand for 5-7 seconds, it's too hot for their paws!

Opt for grass or dirt paths whenever possible.

Schedule walks for the coolest parts of the day.

Paw balm or protective booties can offer an extra layer of defense.

Prevention is key! But if your pet does show signs of discomfort, limping, or licking their paws excessively after being on hot surfaces, don't hesitate to reach out to PetMedic Urgent Care. Your pet's well-being is our top priority!

☀️🐶🐱 Summer is officially here, and while we love the sunshine, it's crucial to protect our pets from the heat! At PetMedic Urgent Care, we see the dangers of heatstroke firsthand, and we want to help you prevent it.

Here are our top tips for keeping your pet cool and safe:

Always provide shade and fresh, cool water. Consider a kiddie pool for water-loving pups!
Walks & Playtime: Stick to early mornings or late evenings when it's cooler. Pavement can burn paws!
Cars are Death Traps: Even on a mild day, temperatures inside a car can skyrocket. Leave pets at home!
Know the Signs: Heavy panting, lethargy, drooling, uncoordinated movement, or vomiting are all signs of heatstroke.
If you're worried about your pet, don't hesitate to visit us. Your pet's well-being is our priority! ❤️

⚠️ A heads-up from PetMedic Urgent Care: Keep your furry friends safe around the Tennessee River! ⚠️

As the weather heats up and we all enjoy the beautiful Tennessee River, PetMedic Urgent Care in Chattanooga wants to remind all pet parents about potential water safety concerns for our beloved companions.

While a dip in the river might seem like fun, certain conditions can make the water unsafe for pets. We're particularly concerned about:

Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) / Blue-Green Algae: These can appear as green, blue-green, or even reddish-brown scum, mats, or spilled paint on the water's surface, especially in warm, stagnant areas. Even if not visible, toxins can be present. Ingesting water with HABs can be extremely toxic and even fatal to dogs, causing severe neurological and liver damage. When in doubt, keep your pet out!
Leptospirosis: This serious bacterial disease can be found in contaminated water and soil, often spread through the urine of wildlife. Dogs can contract it by drinking or swimming in affected water, especially after heavy rainfall or in marshy areas. Symptoms can range from lethargy and vomiting to severe kidney and liver failure.
Here are some crucial tips from PetMedic to protect your pet:

❌ Avoid areas with visible algae: If you see any suspicious discoloration, foam, or scum on the water, keep your pet far away.
🚫 Prevent drinking river water: Always carry fresh water for your pet and offer it regularly. Don't let them drink directly from the river.
🧼 Rinse thoroughly: If your pet does come into contact with river water, rinse them off with clean, fresh water as soon as possible.
⚕️ Know the symptoms: Be vigilant for signs like vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, weakness, jaundice (yellowing of skin/gums), increased thirst, muscle pain, or seizures after water exposure.
💉 Consider vaccinations: Talk to your regular veterinarian about the Leptospirosis vaccine, especially if your dog frequently plays outdoors or near natural water sources.
Your pet's health is our top priority! If you suspect your pet has been exposed to contaminated water and is showing any signs of illness, don't hesitate to seek veterinary care immediately. PetMedic Urgent Care is here for those urgent moments when your regular vet isn't available.

Stay safe and enjoy Chattanooga's natural beauty responsibly with your pets!
