Fun Fact Friday: The "dog days of summer" originate from ancient astronomy, specifically the star Sirius in the constellation Canis Major, the "Greater Dog". The phrase refers to the period of hot, sultry weather in late summer, traditionally from late July to early August. Ancient Greeks and Romans believed that Sirius, rising with the sun during this time, added its heat to the sun's, making the days particularly hot.

Elizabethan Collars. E-Collars. Cones of Shame. It has a multitude of names and causes stress for many. But an e-collar, or similar product, is essential for pets to heal. They prevent your pet from licking, chewing, or scratching at surgical sites, wounds, or injuries which can delay healing or cause infections. There are a variety of e-collar types as well as "inflatable donuts" or surgical suits that can keep your pet from reaching or interfering with the healing area. It is important to keep these on at all times during the healing process, even if they become a "bull in a china shop". We have seen some pretty creative attempts to keep pets from licking, from dixie cups to cardboard boxes. 😆

Ticks are in full force. 😖 They thrive in warm, humid weather and we've had plenty of that in our area lately. They are often found on the tips of grasses and shrubs and will crawl onto a host as they pass by. Ticks carry diseases that can affect cats, dogs, and humans.

The most common tick borne diseases in pets are:
◾️ Lyme Disease - Symptoms include fever, lameness, swollen joints, and lethargy

◾️ Ehrlichiosis - Symptoms include fever, lethargy, loss of appetite, swollen lymph nodes, and bleeding problems

◾️ Anaplasmosis - Symptoms include fever, loss of appetite, lethargy, and joint pain

◾️ Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever - Symptoms include fever, swelling, and in severe cases, seizures

Fortunately, there are a variety of medications that prevent and kill ticks before they have a chance to transmit these harmful diseases. And while no effective prevention is completely without possible side effects, the risk of your pet contracting a severe disease generally outweighs the risk of a side effect occurring. Ask your veterinarian which prevention is right for your pet.

Fun Fact Friday: A bloodhound's sense of smell can be used as evidence in court. The sense of smell of a trained bloodhound is so precise, it can be admitted into evidence in a court of law. Bloodhounds can follow tracks over 300 hours old and can stay on a scent trail for over 130 miles.
