With the summer heat upon us, remember to allow plenty of shade and fresh water to your pets that go outdoors. Every summer we treat pets for hyperthermia after being out in the heat for too long, often associated with exercise and activities. Cats are susceptible too.
Simple steps can help ensure a safe summer for our furry family members.

Jolene is a one-year-old Redbone Coonhound who thought it would be a tasty idea to swipe a BBQ skewer on 4th of July. This had catastrophic effects but thanks to our surgeon Dr. Andrew Levien, Jolene has survived and is thriving. Read her story here:
Jolene presented in critical condition to our emergency services department as a transfer from a local referring veterinarian on July 17th for suspected pyothorax (the presence of fluid or pus within the chest cavity). Jolene had not been feeling well for a couple of weeks with progressive lethargy, cough, and inappetence.
After intensive supportive care and a chest tap to stabilize Jolene, advanced diagnostic imaging was performed with a CT scan which revealed a kebab skewer had perforated through the esophagus and was lodged in the diaphragm. Dr. Levien successfully removed the wooden skewer and the healing journey began. Jolene remained hospitalized and in critical condition while her body slowly recovered. The skewer had been lodged in her for 2 weeks!
Thanks Dr. Levien for his dedication and expertise which helped get Jolene back home to her family!
Saving lives, one pet at a time!

This sweet girl Bailey is living the dream of every Labrador! Not so long ago, this cute 17-week-old puppy ate neurotoxic rat bait. Bromethalin is a neurotoxic rodenticide that damages the central nervous system. If a beloved pet accidentally eats this, quick and aggressive treatment is highly recommended; the effects may be catastrophic! Luckily, Bailey's family knew what to do. She was treated in our emergency department and hospitalized to help ensure her full recovery. Without treatment there may be permanent neurologic damage. If your pet has ingested any toxin or unknown substance, please contact your veterinarian, our emergency services or ASPCA Poison Control at 888-426-4435.

How Do You Know If Your Dog Has a Foxtail?
• Pawing or Scratching: Especially around the ears or nose, where foxtails often lodge.
• Persistent Sneezing or Nasal Discharge: A potential sign of foxtails in the nasal passages.
• Excessive Licking: Particularly of the paws or between the toes.
Thanks to its shape, which is intended to burrow seeds into the soil, once the foxtail is in the body it cannot reverse direction and come out on its own. These pesky little seedlings can cause serious harm if left untreated.
The symptoms of a potential foxtail can also be caused by many other ailments. If your pet has a persistent, abnormal health concern, please contact a veterinarian.
