Please join us Friday, May 29th in celebrating Barb's 48 years of dedication to the Lewiston Veterinary Clinic. It's hard to put into words what Barb means to our work family. Through every season, transition, and milestone Barb has been a constant source of wisdom and dedication. If you have done any work on our large animal side chances are you have ran into Barb one way or another.

Thank you for your nearly 5 decades of hard work, outstanding service, and incredible contributions to LVC. We are beyond grateful for you and everything you have done. You will still see Barb in the clinic on occasions, but spending time with all her amazing grandchildren is her top priority now. Thank you again, Barb, for your unparalleled loyalty and being apart of our family for nearly half a century.

Please stop in between 7:00am and 5:30pm Friday, May 29th to wish her well.

Dogs and cats don’t see the same way we do. Dogs tend to see fewer colors—mostly blues and yellows—while cats are excellent in low light, making them natural nighttime hunters. Both species rely more on motion detection than sharp detail, which is why even small movements quickly grab their attention.

So why does this matter?
Understanding your pet’s vision can help explain behaviors like chasing moving objects, hesitating in dim lighting, or missing treats right in front of them.

If you ever notice changes like bumping into objects, cloudy eyes, or reluctance to move around, it’s worth having their vision checked. Eye health is an important part of overall wellness.

Rabbits’ teeth never stop growing.
Because of this, proper diet—especially access to hay—is essential to help wear their teeth down naturally and prevent painful dental issues.

Helpful tips for rabbit owners:
• Provide unlimited high-quality hay
• Offer safe chew toys
• Schedule regular veterinary checkups

Dental problems in rabbits can develop quietly, so prevention is key.

Routine dental care helps keep your horse performing and feeling their best.

If your pet starts limping, even occasionally, it’s worth paying attention.
Limping can be caused by anything from minor injuries to joint issues or more serious conditions. Waiting too long can sometimes make the problem worse.

Watch for:
• Favoring one leg
• Difficulty getting up or lying down
• Reduced activity or play

Early evaluation helps us determine the cause and get your pet comfortable again.

Call us at (208) 743-6553 if you notice any changes in movement.

There’s no one-size-fits-all diet for pets.

Age, breed, activity level, and health conditions all play a role in choosing the right nutrition. What works well for one pet may not be ideal for another.

Things to consider:
• Life stage (puppy/kitten, adult, senior)
• Portion size and feeding schedule
• Prescription diets when needed

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by pet food options, you’re not alone—we’re here to help guide you.

Ask us about nutrition recommendations tailored to your pet.

A new cardiac diagnosis comes with a list of medications that can feel overwhelming at first. Pimobendan, furosemide, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers: each one addresses a different piece of how heart disease affects the body, and combination therapy is what extends quality time most effectively. Lewiston Veterinary Clinic has the full breakdown on what each medication does, what to watch for at home, and how home monitoring of resting respiratory rate plays a key role in catching changes early.

Dental health plays a bigger role in your pet’s overall wellness than many people realize.

Infections in the mouth can spread to other parts of the body, affecting organs like the heart and kidneys over time.

At-home habits that help:
• Offer dental chews approved for pets
• Brush regularly with pet-safe toothpaste
• Schedule professional cleanings when recommended

Even small steps can make a big difference in long-term health.
