Could your pet survive the heat today?

Heat stroke can escalate quickly and become life threatening before you even realize something is wrong. In this video, Dr. White from Animal Emergency Clinic of Northeast walks through what to watch for and how to act fast.

Early signs can include heavy panting, excessive drooling, vomiting, lethargy, or trouble walking. Some pets are at higher risk, especially flat faced breeds like Bulldogs and Pugs, senior or overweight pets, and those with thick coats.

If you’re concerned, move your pet to a cool area, offer small amounts of water, and use cool not cold water to help bring their temperature down while you head in to see your local emergency care team.

Prevention goes a long way. Avoid peak heat hours, never leave pets in a car, and make sure they always have access to shade and water. If you think your pet may be experiencing heat stroke, seek emergency veterinary care immediately.

Don’t Touch Wildlife!!

Wildlife may look cute or injured, but it’s important to admire from a distance. 🦌🦝🦅

Touching or approaching wildlife can put both you and the animal at risk for injury, disease transmission, and unnecessary stress. If you find injured or orphaned wildlife, contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator for guidance instead of handling them yourself.

Let’s help keep our wild neighbors safe by giving them the space they need. 💚

Most pets with arthritis don’t limp.

You might notice slowing down on walks, hesitation to jump, stiffness after rest, or just “not acting like themselves.” These small changes can be early signs of joint pain. The good news is there are ways to help support your pet’s comfort and mobility.

Have you noticed any of these changes in your pet? Let’s talk. Our team is here to help.

Seeing is believing… 👀🦟

This video shows microfilaria — the microscopic baby stage of heartworms — found in a patient recently diagnosed with heartworm disease at Culpeper Animal Hospital. Heartworm disease is spread by mosquitoes and can lead to serious heart and lung damage if left untreated.

The good news? Heartworm disease is preventable with monthly prevention and yearly testing. ❤️🐾

If your pet is due for heartworm testing or prevention, give us a call to help keep them protected year-round!

🚨 WE ARE OUT OF SPACE 🚨

This is the reality animal shelters everywhere are facing right now.

The stray dogs keep coming in.
Owner surrender requests are nonstop.
Rescues are full.
Kennels are full.

As a county facility, we cannot turn away stray animals or animals brought in by animal control. When there is nowhere else for them to go, they come here.

And when shelters run out of space and no one is adopting, heartbreaking decisions begin getting closer and closer.

These dogs deserve homes, not deadlines.

We are desperately asking our community to step up right now.

If you have been thinking about adopting, please come meet our dogs. We have goofy dogs, calm dogs, hiking buddies, couch potatoes, and everything in between waiting for their chance.

If you foster for a rescue and can help, please reach out to your rescue and let them know you may be able to take one of our dogs.

Please share. Please adopt. Please help us create space before we run out of options.

Available dogs:

It’s heating up outside, and so are the risks for your pets.

As temperatures rise, we start to see more cases of heat exhaustion, and it can escalate quickly if you’re not watching for the signs. Panting is often the first clue, especially when your pet is struggling to cool themselves. You may also notice excessive drooling, bright red gums, vomiting, or weakness. If gums turn purple or gray, or your pet has trouble standing or collapses, it’s time for immediate emergency care.

If you notice any of these symptoms, get your pet out of the heat right away. Move them into shade or air conditioning, offer room temperature water, and avoid ice or very cold water, as that can make things worse.

Heat exhaustion can quickly turn into heat stroke, so acting early matters. If you suspect your pet is experiencing heat exhaustion, don’t wait. Seek emergency veterinary care right away.
