With summer in full swing -- please keep in mind to be cautious about your dog around water. Many people love to take their dogs along on hikes and let them enjoy swimming in lakes and ponds, but there is a danger associated with these activities.
Leptospirosis is a spirochete bacteria that can be contracted through contaminated water. This bacteria attacks the kidneys and liver and can cause your dog to become very ill.
According to the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), leptospirosis, commonly referred to as “lepto,” is now considered a core vaccine for all dogs, meaning every dog should be vaccinated against it, regardless of lifestyle or location, as it is a potentially life-threatening disease that can be transmitted to humans (zoonotic) and is prevalent across North America. Vaccination is the best way to protect your dog and yourself from leptospirosis.

June is National Pet Preparedness Month🌪️🚨
Pets can’t prepare for an emergency, but you can!

Here’s some tips you can use to prepare:
• Have an evacuation plan for your pet. Many public shelters and hotels do not allow pets inside. Know a safe place where you can take your pets.
• Develop a buddy system. Plan with neighbors, friends, or relatives to make sure that someone is available to care for or evacuate your pets if you are unable to do so.
• Have your pet microchipped. Make sure to keep your address and phone number up-to-date and include contact information for an emergency contact outside of your immediate area.
• Contact your local emergency management office or animal shelter to get additional advice and information if you’re unsure how to care for your pet in case of an emergency.
Build a Go-Kit for Your Pet and review your kits regularly to ensure that their contents, especially foods and medicines, are fresh.
• Food. Keep several days’ supply of food in an airtight, waterproof container.
• Water. Store a water bowl and several days’ supply of water.
• Medicine. Keep an extra supply of the medicine your pet takes on a regular basis in a waterproof container.
• First aid kit. Talk to your veterinarian about what is most appropriate for your pet’s emergency medical needs.
• Collar with ID tag and a harness or leash. Include a backup leash, collar and ID tag. Have copies of your pet’s vaccine information and other relevant documents in a waterproof container and available electronically.
• Traveling bag, crate, or sturdy carrier, ideally one for each pet.
• Grooming items. Pet shampoo, conditioner, and other items, in case your pet needs some cleaning up.
• Sanitation needs. Include pet litter and litter box (if appropriate), newspapers, paper towels, plastic trash bags, p**p bags, and household chlorine bleach to provide for your pet’s sanitation needs.
• A picture of you and your pet together. If you become separated from your pet during an emergency, a picture of you and your pet together will help you document ownership and allow others to assist you in identifying your pet.
• Familiar items. Put favorite toys, treats, or bedding in your kit. Familiar items can help reduce stress for your pet.
