It is July, and for the majority of the United States it is HOT outside. It also happens to be National Pet Hydration Awareness Month. Dogs and cats, even more so than humans, are prone to dehydration in the summertime heat as their sweat glands are primarily limited to the paw pads and the nose. Heat dissipation is virtually all via panting. Under most circumstances, healthy dogs and cats will keep themselves adequately hydrated if provided plenty of fresh water and kept in an appropriate (e.g. not too hot) environment. Given these factors are met, dehydration is commonly secondary to an underlying illness that needs to be addressed. Some signs of dehydration may include the following:
• Lethargy
• Loss of appetite
• Excessive panting
• Thick saliva
If you suspect that your pet has severe dehydration, you should immediately seek veterinary care for your pet.

🐶🐱April is Heartworm Awareness Month 🐶🐱
This is an important reminder for all pet owners to act against a potentially deadly but preventable disease. Heartworm disease is caused by parasitic worms that live in the heart and blood vessels of infected dogs, leading to serious health complications if left untreated.
Heartworms are spread through mosquito bites. When a mosquito bites an infected dog, it picks up microscopic heartworm larvae. These larvae are then transmitted to another dog through the next bite. Because mosquitoes are present in many regions, heartworm prevention is essential for all dogs, even those that spend most of their time indoors.
If your dog is not currently on heartworm prevention, or if you have missed doses, it is important to book a consultation. Testing is required before starting prevention to ensure your dog is not already infected. Early detection and prevention are far safer and more affordable than treating advanced heartworm disease. With routine testing, consistent prevention, and guidance from your veterinary team, you can protect your dog from this life-threatening parasite.
Your pet’s health depends on proactive care, and our team is here to help keep your dog happy, healthy, and heartworm-free all year round.

FEBRUARY IS NATIONAL PET DENTAL HEALTH MONTH
Dental health is a very important part of your pet’s overall health and dental problems can cause, or be caused by, other health problems. Your pet’s teeth and gums should be checked at least once a year by your veterinarian for early signs of problems and to keep your pet’s mouth healthy. Have your pet’s teeth checked sooner if you observe any of the following problems:
• Bad breath
• Broken or loose teeth
• Extra teeth or retained baby teeth
• Teeth that are discolored or covered in tartar
• Abnormal chewing, drooling, or dropping food
• Reduced appetite or refusal to eat
• Pain in or around the mouth
• Bleeding from the mouth
• Swelling in the areas surrounding the mouth
Prevention of the most common oral disease in pets consists of frequent removal of dental plaque and tartar that forms on teeth that are not kept clean. Regularly brushing your pet’s teeth is the single most effective thing you can do to keep their teeth healthy. Daily brushing is best, but it’s not always possible and brushing several times a week can be effective. Most dogs accept brushing, but cats can be a bit more resistant patience and training is important.
There are many pet products marketed with claims that they improve dental health, but not all of them are effective. Please contact us if you have questions about any dental products, treats, or dental-specific diets you’re considering for your pet – we are happy to give recommendations.

Schoolcraft Veterinary Clinic is excited to welcome Dr. Jacob Bloom, DVM, he will be joining our veterinary team on January 19, 2026. Dr. Bloom is a newly graduated veterinarian from Midwestern University College of Veterinary Medicine (Class of 2025). Born and raised in Michigan, he developed a love for animals at a young age and became inspired to pursue veterinary medicine after accompanying his family dog to a veterinary appointment. His passion continued to grow through hands-on experiences, including working in a veterinary clinic during high school and spending many years shadowing small animal practices throughout his education.
During veterinary school in Arizona, Dr. Bloom immersed himself in a wide range of clinical experiences, caring for both small and large animals. He discovered a strong interest in small animal general practice, where he enjoys building relationships with clients while providing compassionate, high-quality care to patients.
Dr. Bloom values collaboration, mentorship, and a supportive team environment. He believes that excellent patient care is achieved through teamwork among veterinarians, technicians, and client care staff, and he brings a consistently positive, inquisitive attitude to everything he does. He also has a strong background in client communication, having received extensive training through communication labs and clinical experiences at Midwestern University.
As he begins his career, Dr. Bloom looks forward to continuing to grow his medical and technical skills through mentorship, collaboration, and continuing education. While his long-term career goals remain open, he is excited to build a strong foundation in small animal general practice and to become a lasting asset to our clinic and community.
Please join us in welcoming Dr. Jacob Bloom—he is looking forward to meeting you and your pets.
