Hydration is Health — Especially for Seniors 🐕‍🦺🐈‍⬛
Did you know senior pets are more prone to dehydration?
As pets age, they may not feel as thirsty — but their bodies still need plenty of water to stay healthy.
💧 Keep water bowls easily accessible
💧 Encourage drinking with flavored water or broths
💧 Monitor water intake and bathroom habits

Let’s keep our golden oldies feeling their best!

🦷 Preventative Care Starts with a Clean Slate 🐾

Daily brushing and dental chews are great for maintaining your pet’s oral health — but once tartar builds up like this, it’s gone beyond what at-home care can fix.

⚠️ Thick, yellow tartar = trapped bacteria
⚠️ Gum tissue gets pushed away from the tooth
⚠️ Roots become exposed to infection
⚠️ This leads to painful dental disease

At this stage, a professional dental cleaning under anesthesia is the only way to safely remove tartar below the gum line and prevent further damage.

✨ Once your pet has a fresh, clean slate — that’s when brushing and home care can really shine!

📞 Call Oakhurst Veterinary Hospital at 559-777-6777 to schedule a dental evaluation and keep your pet smiling for years to come!

Indoor Cats Get Lost Too
🐱 Think your indoor cat is safe from getting lost? Think again.
Cats are curious, quick, and great at slipping through open doors or windows.

Keep them protected:
✔️ Microchip your indoor cats
✔️ Make sure all windows have secure screens
✔️ Use breakaway collars with ID tags
✔️ Consider leash training for outdoor enrichment

Even the most “homebody” kitty can wander off—let’s make sure they can always find their way back. 💙

Prevention Starts with the Leash
🐕 Off-leash adventures = higher risk of snake bites.
Even the best-trained dog can surprise you when faced with wildlife.

✔️ Keep dogs leashed in brushy or wooded areas
✔️ Stick to trails — no sniffing into rocks or holes
✔️ Be extra cautious during dawn and dusk (prime snake times)

Protect your pup, keep them close.

Don’t Wait on a Foxtail
⏱️ When in doubt, call us!
If you suspect your pet has a foxtail stuck in their skin, ear, nose, or anywhere else — do not wait.

The longer it stays embedded, the deeper it travels and the worse it gets. 😣

🚨 Embedded foxtails can lead to:
❌ Painful infections
❌ Abscesses
❌ Surgery

📞 Early treatment = less pain, faster healing. Call Oakhurst Veterinary Hospital at 559-777-6777 for quick relief.

Hydration = Health
Dogs and cats can become dehydrated quickly in the heat.
Make sure fresh, clean water is always available — at home and on the go.
💦 Bring a water bottle and collapsible bowl on walks
🧊 Add ice cubes or pet-safe broths for picky drinkers
🐕 Watch for signs of dehydration: dry gums, lethargy, excessive panting

Summer + Dehydration = A Risky Combo ☀️
As temps rise, so does the risk of dehydration.
Always bring water on walks or trips and never leave pets in the car — even for a few minutes.
Hydration saves lives. Let's keep them safe this summer!

🦷 Anesthetic vs. Non-Anesthetic Dental Cleanings 🐾
What’s the difference — and why does it matter?

✨ Non-Anesthetic Dental Cleanings:
✔️ Tartar removed from the surface
❌ No thorough oral exam
❌ No polishing (which leaves teeth rough!)
❌ No dental X-rays
👉 Primarily cosmetic and may miss serious issues

🩺 Anesthetic Dental Procedures:
✅ Full oral exam by a veterinarian
✅ Scaling and polishing
✅ Dental radiographs to check beneath the gum line
✅ Helps detect hidden pain, infection, or bone loss
✅ Promotes long-term oral health

💬 While anesthetic procedures may cost more, they offer real medical benefits that protect your pet’s comfort and health.

📞 Call Oakhurst Veterinary Hospital at 559-777-6777 to learn more and schedule your pet’s dental consultation today!
