Meet Lexi! She was here for surgery to get spayed, and she was the bravest and ever so cutest girl!! 🎀
Here at Breton Vet, we do all kinds of surgeries from spay/neuter to dentals and mass removals!
Whether routine or complex, your pet’s procedure will be our top priority. From the moment you arrive, we’ll be there to answer your questions and help keep your pet calm and relaxed.
Once safely sedated, our team will work to complete the surgery as efficiently as possible. Depending on the type of surgery, we may use a CO2 Surgical Laser which helps reduce post-surgical swelling, pain at the site, and tissue trauma. During your pet’s surgery, our dedicated support staff will be present at all times, assisting with surgery and closely monitoring your pet’s wellbeing.
Surgery doesn’t have to be a source of anxiety, especially if you’ve got the right team in your corner. Contact Breton Veterinary Hospital today and let’s discuss how we can help with all of your companion’s surgical care needs. 🐾

Swimming is a great way for dogs to cool off and get exercise—but a little prep goes a long way in keeping it safe. 🌊🐶

Not all dogs are natural swimmers, so always supervise and consider a life jacket—especially in open water.

After the fun, don’t forget about their ears.
Water trapped in the ear canal can lead to irritation or infections (aka “swimmer’s ear”), especially in dogs who swim often or have floppy ears.

A quick ear check and gentle drying after swimming can help prevent discomfort later on.

And as always—fresh water, shaded breaks, and a rinse-off help keep your pup happy and healthy.

Because the goal is simple: more splashing, less stressing. 💛

🐾💡 10 Seconds Now… or $$$ Later?

Sometimes the smallest habits make the biggest difference when it comes to your pet’s health—and your wallet.

⏱️ 10 seconds:
A quick paw check after a walk
Refilling monthly preventatives
Noticing a small change in behavior

💸 Can save you:
Treating an infected paw
Dealing with preventable parasites
Managing a bigger issue that started small

Preventive care isn’t just about health—it’s about catching things early, when they’re simpler (and less expensive) to manage.

Because a few seconds of attention today can help avoid a much bigger problem tomorrow. 💛

Skye wants to know if your pet is up to date on their exams and vaccines? Look at those eyes, she knows when you are lying. 🧐😆
Pet wellness is important because healthy pets cause slightly less chaos. Regular checkups, good food, and exercise help them live longer, happier lives — and reduce the chances of your dog eating a sock or your cat plotting revenge at 3 a.m. A well-cared-for pet means more cuddles, fewer vet surprises, and only the normal amount of household destruction. 🐶🐱
Give us a call if your pet is due for any wellness and to schedule an appointment!
New to us? We are always accepting new fur-babies to care for!

🐾⏳ Why Do Pets Age So Fast?! (Dog Years vs. Cat Years)

We’ve all heard “1 dog year = 7 human years”… and maybe wondered—what about cats? 😅

🐱 Cats age fast early on
Year 1 ≈ 15 human years
Year 2 ≈ 24 human years
After that, each year ≈ 4 human years

🐶 Dogs aren’t one-size-fits-all
They also age quickly at first—but size matters:

Small dogs:
Year 1 ≈ 15 → Year 2 ≈ 24 → then ~4–5/year

Medium dogs:
Year 1 ≈ 15 → Year 2 ≈ 24 → then ~5–6/year

Large/giant dogs:
Year 1 ≈ 15 → Year 2 ≈ 24 → then ~7–8+/year

So… why do they age faster?

Pets go through rapid growth and development early in life—their bodies mature much faster than ours. For dogs, especially larger breeds, faster growth and higher metabolic demands can also contribute to earlier aging and shorter lifespans.

🇺🇸🐾 Memorial Day: Honoring Those Who Served—On Two Legs and Four

Today we remember the brave men and women who gave everything in service to our country.

And alongside them, we honor the military working dogs who served with equal courage and loyalty. 🐶

These dogs are more than companions—they are trained to protect, detect, and support in ways that save lives. From patrol and detection to search and rescue, their role is critical—and their bond with their handlers is unmatched.

They don’t understand the meaning of sacrifice—but they show us what loyalty looks like every day.

This Memorial Day, we remember them all. ❤️

🐾💛 Arthritis Awareness Month: The Science Behind Subtle Changes

Osteoarthritis is a progressive, inflammatory joint disease—and in pets, it often begins long before obvious lameness appears.

Early changes are typically biomechanical, not dramatic. You may notice decreased range of motion, altered gait patterns, or reduced willingness to perform high-impact movements like jumping or running.

After activity, mild inflammation within the joint can lead to stiffness or delayed soreness—especially following hikes or longer periods of exercise. Monitoring how your pet moves after activity can be just as important as during it.

Consistent preventative care and routine wellness evaluations play a key role in early detection. Identifying joint changes sooner allows for more effective intervention strategies to support mobility, reduce inflammation, and slow disease progression.

Because with arthritis, what you catch early can significantly impact long-term comfort and function. 💛
