Hello! Let’s talk about Benadryl (Diphenhydramine) - this is an antihistamine with many uses - allergies, insect bites, motion sickness, sleep aide for example.

Kids on Tic Tok have started taking it as part of a tic tok challenge and literally dying!

If you want to use Benadryl for your pets - remember the Golden Rule: 1mg/# = 25# pet = 25mg tab. You can use liquid children’s Benadryl for smaller pets.

Happy birthday to me! 🎈 I’m taking the rest of the day off ~ hoping hurricane Laura calms down before the day is over and spares our southern neighbors from any further hardships. I also want to thank all of you for entrusting us with the care of your fur babies ~ It feels like I recently hit my “10,000 hours” and have a renewed love for veterinary medicine ~ a state of flow if you will 🕉 . ❤️ #peaceandlove #doodle #seattle #puppylove #veterinarymedicine

Wow! The day stated off with this amazing bundle of love causing me major cuteness aggression. 😻 Then we made the decision to send my friend’s lovely dog to join all his dog 🐕 cousins and George Floyd in heaven 🌈 ~ and our hearts ♥️ communally ache for his family, and all the families that have experienced loss, their beloved pets, the Corona virus, Police Brutality. Just a lot of loss and it feels so heavy sometimes.

Then, still feeling out of sorts, I backed up and hit a car with my car. The guy was super nice about it, and said “At least it’s not that bad” and my faith in humanity was momentarily restored.

Remember to be kind to your fellow humans, more now then ever.

Looks like grooming 🐩 is coming BACK (we will contact you!)

Stay safe and be kind ~ we are open 8:30-3 this week!

Hello 👋 All ~ peace ☮️ and health to you this week.

First Corona 👑 🦠 now riots 🚔 🔥?!

If it gets to be too much: here is a breathing exercise 🧘🏽‍♂️ ~ breathes in for 6️⃣sec, hold for 2️⃣sec, exhale for 4️⃣sec ~ repeat 3 times or as many as you need.

This week clinic is open daily: 9am-3pm ~ Safety first

Today I spoke with a nice lady police officer 👮🏽 about kneeling 🧎🏽‍♀️ as a sign of unity for justice ~ she liked the idea 💡 but would have to speak with her superiors ~ Dr. Mona

Otis and Rayson ~ just a little cuteness for your morning ☀️ 🐶

05/17/2020

Hi 👋 Everyone!

Normal, not normal, who knows anymore! 😷🦠💭

Vet Clinic 🏥 schedule this week:
Monday: Closed
Tuesday: Rayson in for pharmacy 💊 pickup and reception ☎️
Wednesday: Dr. Mike 👨🏻‍⚕️
Thursday: Dr. Mike👨🏻‍⚕️
Friday: Dr. Mike👨🏻‍⚕️
Weekend: Closed

I am in Palm Springs 🌵until June 1 at which point I am hoping the clinic can come roaring back: Reception ☎️ grooming 🐩and all! 😻

I know everyone has been asking about 🐩 grooming ~ and our hands are currently tied. Let me tell you a little story. We receive an email from King County Department of Health that grooming can’t open until Phase II (June) ~ I wonder 💭why Starbucks can sell coffee ☕️ , bars can sell cocktails 🍹 to go ~ but we can’t groom pets 🐩. I call King County and ask about the scientific basis for this decision

~ I speak with a frustrated King County Public health official who says something along the lines of “This order came directly from the Governor’s office - we have no direct line of communication with anyone in the Olympia, they did not reach out for our input. We agree it makes no sense from a public health standpoint. If you think it’s necessary go ahead”

I would go ahead but our pet stylists prefer to follow the Governor’s order and that is where we stand with that: grooming closed until Phase II

June 1st maybe? Will keep you all posted.

~ Dr. Mona 🌍 ❤️

Ok ok, I can tell by the number of likes, that you guys prefer puppy 🐶 and 😷 photos more than surgery before and afters!! Can’t relate... !Please meet the sweetest #chihuahua #puppy girl Samantha

Here at the clinic? Well, it is starting to feel like Seattle is waking up from the corona 👑 fog... or is it just me?

Ashely @sparkle_grooming says she is on target to start grooming April 27th ~ this could change of course! @seattle.pet.stylist when should we start booking grooms again? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Next week we are open Tues, Wed, Thurs for veterinary services. I will be hiding away in Palm Spring taking pictures of cacti 🌵 while some amazing relief veterinarians hold down the fort ~ ❤️ Dr. Mona

Hey everyone, this is a video about proper coat maintenance in between grooms. Its very important to keep your dog clean and combed out! The style of brushing used in this video is great for medium - long coated breeds. Below I'll have a list of the grooming products/ tools I used in this video:

Espree Hypo-Allergenic Shampoo - I really like this shampoo because it had a very mild formula, it cleans well, and you can use it as face shampoo because its tearless. Retails for around $12.

Tropiclean Blueberry Facial - This is my favorite face shampoo ever! It smells amazing and it cleans great. I use this face shampoo at the salon too. Retails for about $11.

Bio Groom Ear Cleaner - It cleans ears! Retails for about $16.

Chris Christensen Big G Slicker Brush - This is a wonderful brush!! It gets through longer hair with ease. I highly recommend this brush to dog owners with Doodles, Poodles, Bichons, etc. It does come with a $65 price tag, but its a good investment for someone with a dog who needs regular brushing. Alternatively, if you can't afford that much for a brush I do recommend the Show Tech Transgroom Tuffer Than Tangles Slicker Brush with regular pins. They retail for about $20.

Chris Christensen Buttercomb 000 fine/ course - I love this comb! This is what I use every day at the salon. It is great for checking your work and leaves a good finish. It does retail for about $35, which isn't bad for how high quality it is. A cheaper alternative is an Andis metal comb for dogs. They retail for about $10 and the work. They just don't have the same comb magic the Buttercomb has.

Best Shot Ultra Vitalizing Pet Mist - This is the brushing spray that I use. It has a nice scent and work well. It retails for about $15.

I believe you can buy all/ most of these products on Amazon. If you can though, please support your locally owned pet businesses!

Hello All 👋

How is your week going so far? Lots of hand washing 🧼 and alone time? Us too.

Please email if you need anything - it is the best way to get ahold of us right now.
[email protected]

It’s hard to plan anything right now so we are taking it week by week. While we have established that veterinary medicine is an essential business - Our Governor has put a moratorium on all dentistry and non-urgent procedures to save personal protective equipment for those health care works on the front lines.

Soooo that means us at Third + Stewart don’t have a lot of services to offer until we reach the downside of the infection curve!

For now we are keeping hours Tuesday, Wed, Thursday if you need to pick up meds or need to chat about something. I will be offering tele-medicine visits to established clientele 📱 as well.

“There’s one thing the history of evolution has taught us, it's that life will not be contained. Life breaks free, it expands to new territories, and crashes through barriers painfully, maybe even dangerously, but, uh, well, there it is. Life will find a way.” ~ from Jurassic Park

Please email if you need anything!
[email protected] and keep your eye out for rainbows 🌈

Hello friends:

How are you all doing? We hope in excellent health.

Here at the clinic, we are business as usual. All of our doctors and staff have temperatures at or around 98.6F 🌡 ~ so we are good!

These are uncertain time in the world 🌎, but here at Third + Stewart, we are not panicking - we are taking it day by day, week by week and following news from our public health officials closely.

From our understanding of virology 🦠 this is a very contagious 😷 virus which causes mild illness in most healthy individuals and serious illness in elderly/debilitated individuals.

Isolation and hand washing 🖐🏼 🧼 are our best defense.

If anyone has a fever 🤒 Staff or Client: please stay home! That is our plan as of today Friday, March 13 2020.

I would recommend everyone listen to Dr. Sanjay Gupta’s podcast for science based information on Corona. Panic is not knowing - learning more about the biologic activity 🧬 of the virus 🦠 is one defense against infectious fear.

❤️ Dr. Mona

Boo is hoping that this online Valentine's Day profile will help him find a new home.
Boo is a cantankerous, 14 year old Himalayan that finds himself looking for a new home. Boo's owners have a new job that requires extensive travel and they feel it is unfair to leave Boo alone or in boarding. He doesn't really like anyone and we equate him to a grumpy old stereotypical New Yorker that doesn't want anyone in his space. He enjoys insulting anyone who walks by his enclosure and is a southpaw. He is extremely cute. Will you be Boo's valentine?

We will be closed on Feb 12. Please email us with any non-urgent questions or concerns at [email protected]!
