🚨🐶 Keep your pets safe from rabies! 🐱🚨

Rabies is a viral disease that can be deadly for both pets and humans. It's transmitted through bites from infected animals like bats, skunks, raccoons, and foxes. The virus attacks the brain and spinal cord, leading to severe symptoms such as aggression, excessive drooling, and seizures. Sadly, there's no cure for rabies, and it's almost always fatal once signs appear.

Protect your pet from rabies by keeping them up-to-date on their rabies vaccine. Don't forget to keep your distance from wild animals, and always supervise your pet when outside. If you're concerned about rabies or need to schedule a vaccine appointment, give us a call at (615) 444-4422 to speak with a veterinarian.

🐶 If your furry friend has been diagnosed with heartworm disease, it's important to restrict their exercise.

😢 Physical exertion can exacerbate the damage the heartworms cause to the dog's heart and lungs. Treatment for heartworm disease is also risky, as the medication can cause life-threatening complications when the dead worms break apart. Before treatment is started, the dog's condition must be stabilized, and close monitoring is required during and after treatment.

Providing year-round heartworm prevention is an important part of your pet’s health care plan. If you would like to discuss the various preventives, contact our team by calling (615) 444-4422, so we can determine what protocol would best fit you and your pet’s lifestyle.
