In case you didn't know: Pets become dehydrated MUCH faster than humans.

Dehydration can happen for a variety of reasons, including vomiting, diarrhea, heat exposure, or simply not drinking enough water. Left untreated, it can quickly become a serious health concern.
If your pet seems lethargic, has dry gums, or isn't acting like themselves, it may be time for an evaluation. Early treatment can help prevent more serious complications.

Remember that a sudden limp, excessive scratching, or changes in appetite may seem minor at first, but small symptoms can point to larger health concerns. Westlake Veterinary Urgent Care is here to help pet owners get answers when something does not feel right.

Vomiting and diarrhea are common reasons pets need urgent care, but they can also be signs of something more serious. If symptoms persist, worsen, or your pet seems unusually tired or uncomfortable, it is important to seek veterinary attention quickly.

Not sure? We’re here to help.

As the weather warms up in Florida, seasonal allergies are becoming more common in pets. Excessive scratching, licking, chewing at the skin, irritated ears, and hot spots can all be signs your dog is dealing with environmental allergies.

Ozzy recently visited Dr. Lanie after struggling with constant itching and discomfort. After receiving a Cytopoint injection, he’s now itch-free and feeling much more comfortable. Cytopoint is a targeted allergy treatment designed to help control itching caused by environmental allergies, with many dogs experiencing relief within 1 day.

If your pet has been scratching more than usual, Westlake Veterinary Urgent Care is here to help your pet feel their best.

Teach me Tuesday: Bufo Toads 👩‍🏫 🐸

It’s that time of year again… **Bufo toads** (also known as cane toads) are active, and they can be *extremely toxic* to pets 🐸🌴

If your dog or cat gets curious and tries to lick or mouth one, it can be fatal, so staying aware goes a long way!

This is just a little seasonal reminder to help keep your furry friends happy and healthy 💛
