If your pet is licking, chewing, or scratching more than usual, schedule a visit to prevent hotspots.

Hotspots are painful skin infections that can spread quickly if untreated. Learn what causes them—like moisture, allergies, and flea bites—and how you can reduce your pet’s risk.

Not all flea and tick prevention methods are safe or effective.
We often hear about natural remedies, but some can do more harm than good. Here’s what we don’t recommend for flea and tick prevention:

📌 Methods to avoid:
• Garlic
• Essential oils
• Cinnamon
• Coconut oil
• Living in a gated community as “protection”

While well-intentioned, these natural flea remedies for pets aren't backed by science and may be unsafe. When it comes to protecting your pet from fleas and ticks, vet-approved flea and tick treatments are the safest bet.

💬 Need help choosing the right product? Let’s talk about what’s best for your dog or cat.

📞 Call or book online with our veterinary clinic to discuss safe, effective flea and tick prevention.

Know the difference between urgent care and emergency services before a crisis happens.

Some pet health concerns need immediate attention, but not every situation requires the ER. Understanding where to go and when can save time, money, and stress during urgent moments.

Summer Dog Safety: Outdoor Playtime Tips

Worried about outdoor play in the heat? Here’s what every pet parent should know about summer dog safety before heading outside.

As temperatures rise, summer care for dogs becomes more important than ever. High heat can lead to overheating, burnt paws, and other serious health risks. Whether it’s backyard fetch or a trip to the dog park, a few smart precautions can keep playtime fun and safe.

• Plan playtime smartly. Opt for early morning (6–9 AM) or after 7 PM when the ground and air are cooler.
• Check the ground temperature. If it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for paws—stick to shaded, grassy areas or use protective booties.
• Hydrate and rest often. Make sure your dog has plenty of fresh water and access to shade between bursts of activity.
• Watch for heat stress. Signs like heavy panting, drooling, or slowing down are red flags, bring playtime to a stop and help your dog cool off.
• Tailor to your pet. Older dogs, brachycephalic (flat-faced) breeds, and those with health conditions are more sensitive to the heat and need lighter activity.

If you’re ever unsure whether your pet is showing signs of heat-related illness, reach out to your primary care vet, or visit our emergency clinic. We're here when you need us.

Starting as a CVT over 40 years ago, Kim’s journey has taken her from the treatment floor to leading hospitals across multiple states. Her leadership style? Rooted in empathy, positivity, and respect for each hospital’s unique culture.

“I’ve had to make tough calls, but I hope people remember me as a kind, caring leader - someone who made their practice better, not just operationally, but emotionally too.”

Leaving a pet in a hot car, even for a few minutes, can be extremely dangerous and potentially fatal. The temperature inside a parked car can skyrocket quickly, reaching deadly levels within minutes, even with the windows cracked open. Pets can suffer from heat stroke, organ failure, and even death in these conditions. It is crucial to never leave your pet unattended in a hot car, ensuring their safety by keeping them at home or bringing them along with you if necessary.

Help Animals Impacted by the Texas Flooding 🐾💙

The recent flooding in Texas has displaced countless families and their pets. Kerrville Pets Alive is working tirelessly to rescue, shelter, reunite, and care for animals affected by this disaster — but they can’t do it alone.

We’ve set up a fundraiser through our Instagram and pages, and 100% of the funds will go directly to Kerrville Pets Alive to help provide food, medical care, and safe shelter for pets in crisis.

To amplify your impact, Lakefield Veterinary Group will match donations dollar-for-dollar, up to $10,000. Your gift will go twice as far to help animals who need us most. Please share!
