🐾 Stop By for Treats & Tail Wags! 🐾

Did you know your pet doesn’t have to have an appointment to come see us? 💙

We LOVE when our furry friends stop by the clinic just for treats, belly rubs, ear scratches, and extra love from the staff! Whether you’re out running errands or just passing by, feel free to bring your pet in for a quick happy visit. 🦴🐶🐱

These fun little visits can actually make a huge difference! When pets come in only for vaccines, blood draws, or treatments, the clinic can start to feel scary. Positive visits help them build confidence and learn that the veterinary clinic is a safe, happy place filled with friendly faces and yummy treats. 🍪✨

So next time you’re nearby, stop in and let us spoil your pet a little — we’d love to see them! 🐾

🐾 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Awareness in Cats 🐾

We want to share Oliver’s story as a reminder of how important early intervention can be 💙

Last summer, Oliver, a 4-year-old domestic long hair kitty, came to see us feeling very dumpy. He was vomiting, lethargic, not eating or drinking, and losing weight rapidly—his family knew something wasn’t right.

After examining Oliver, Dr. Allen recommended bloodwork to get to the bottom of things. The results showed that all of his kidney enzymes were very high, indicating Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).

Oliver was hospitalized with us for 3 days, where he received IV fluids to help flush his kidneys, an appetite stimulant to encourage eating, and antibiotics for supportive care. He responded incredibly well and was able to go home to his family with a new plan in place—including a prescription kidney-support diet, Hill's Prescription Diet k/d.

Fast forward to today—Oliver is doing amazing and living his best life! 🐱✨ At his 6-month recheck, his kidney values were back within normal range. While he will remain on his special diet for life, his family (and our team!) can feel confident that he has a bright, happy future ahead.

💡 CKD in cats can be sneaky, and early signs may be subtle. Watch for:
• Increased thirst or urination
• Weight loss
• Decreased appetite
• Vomiting or lethargy

If you notice any of these signs, don’t wait—early detection can make all the difference.

Way to go, Oliver! 💙🐾

🐾✨ Giving Back to Our Community (and Beyond!) ✨🐾
A few weekends ago, Dr. Grace and our amazing technician Kersti traveled to Bear Lake Animal Hospital to lend a helping hand during a cat spay and neuter day—and what a success it was!
Together with Bear Lake Animal Hospitals dedicated team, they helped perform 32 spays and 23 neuters in just one day. That’s 55 cats given a healthier future and a big step toward reducing pet overpopulation in the community. 💙🐱
We also want to give a huge shoutout to Animals Need Help of Bear Lake and Bear Lake Animal Hospital for their incredible support and contribution to making this event possible. Partnerships like these truly make a difference!
We’re so proud of Dr. Grace and Kersti for representing our clinic and giving their time and skills to such an important cause.
👏 We look forward to being part of more projects like this in the future!

The immune system is supposed to protect your pet, but auto-immune blood diseases happen when it makes a critical error and starts attacking the body's own red blood cells or platelets. The result can be a dangerously anemic dog within days or a cat that bruises spontaneously. We walk through IMHA and ITP, the warning signs to watch for, the triggers (including tick-borne infections), and how treatment works at Soda Springs Animal Clinic.

🐾 Looking for a Simpler, Long-Lasting Way to Protect Your Dog? 🐾

We’re exploring interest in offering long-term injectable protection to make parasite prevention easier than ever! 💉🐶

Heartworm disease is a serious (and potentially fatal) condition spread by mosquitoes, and fleas/ticks can carry a variety of harmful diseases. Prevention is key—but we know that keeping up with monthly doses can sometimes be a challenge.

That’s where injectables come in!

✨ Heartworm Protection:
ProHeart provides 12 months of continuous heartworm prevention with a single injection—no more worrying about missed doses!

✨ Flea & Tick Protection:
Bravecto Quantum offers 12 months of continuous flea and tick control, helping keep your dog protected without the need for frequent monthly treatments.

💡 Why consider long-term injectables?
✔️ Fewer doses to remember
✔️ Consistent, reliable protection
✔️ No more struggling with pills or chews
✔️ Peace of mind knowing your pet is covered

Many pet owners are familiar with monthly options like NexGard Plus, but these newer options may be a great fit for busy households or pets who don’t love taking medications.

💬 We want your feedback!
Would you be interested in long-lasting injectable options for BOTH heartworm and flea/tick prevention? Let us know in the comments or send us a message!

Your input helps us decide what options to bring into the clinic—and we’re always here to help you choose what’s best for your pet. ❤️🐾

We may be a little late, but we could never miss the chance to celebrate one of the most important parts of our team! 💙🐾

Last week was National Veterinary Receptionist Week, and we want to give a HUGE shoutout to our amazing receptionist, Shawn!

Shawn is truly the heart of our front desk. She is dedicated, hardworking, kind, and incredibly compassionate—not just with our clients, but with every patient who walks through our doors. Whether she’s answering phones, helping worried pet parents, or keeping our days running smoothly, she does it all with a smile.

We truly could not do what we do without her. Her care and commitment make a difference every single day, and our clinic is a better place because of her.

Thank you, Shawn, for everything you do for our clients, our patients, and our team—we appreciate you more than words can say! 💙🐶🐱

Some dogs seem to get ear infections over and over, and there is usually a reason. Dogs with floppy ears like Basset Hounds and Cocker Spaniels trap moisture under the ear flap. Breeds with hairy ear canals like Poodles and Shih Tzus accumulate debris that blocks airflow. And dogs with narrow canals like Shar Peis struggle with drainage from the start. Add in allergies or swimming, and infections become almost inevitable without preventive care. At Soda Springs Animal Clinic, we use ear cytology and thorough examination to get to the root of recurring infections rather than just treating the symptoms. Call (208) 547-4981 to schedule an ear check for your dog.

🐾 Parvo Survivor Spotlight 🐾

We are so excited to share a happy ending! 💙 A sweet Border Collie puppy came to us very sick with Parvovirus—but thanks to quick action, dedicated care, and a little extra help from our veterinary community, he made an incredible recovery!

This little guy was hospitalized with us for 3 days, where he received IV fluids, anti-nausea medications, antibiotics, and a parvo antibody injection we were able to obtain from Alpine Animal Hospital to give him the very best chance possible to beat this virus. After some tough days, he turned the corner and went home feeling so much better—like an absolute champ! 🐶✨

What is Parvo?
Parvovirus is a highly contagious and potentially deadly virus that primarily affects puppies and unvaccinated dogs. It attacks the gastrointestinal system and can progress very quickly.

Common symptoms to watch for:
▪️ Lethargy (low energy)
▪️ Loss of appetite
▪️ Vomiting
▪️ Severe, often bloody diarrhea
▪️ Dehydration

Why early detection matters:
Parvo can become life-threatening in a short amount of time. The sooner treatment is started, the better the chances of survival. If your puppy is showing any of these signs, don’t wait—call us right away.

Prevention is key!
Vaccination is the best protection against Parvo. Keeping your puppy up to date on their vaccines and avoiding high-risk areas until fully vaccinated can make all the difference.

We’re so proud of this tough little pup and grateful we could help him get back home where he belongs and see him back a few weeks later to get him updated on his vaccinations! 💕

If you have questions about vaccines or your pet’s health, give us a call—we’re always here to help.

🐾 Flea, Tick & Heartworm Prevention Months Are HERE! 🐾
📅 April 15th – June 15th

It’s that time of year again… the bugs are back, and they’re not just annoying—they can be dangerous for your pets! Fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes (which spread heartworms) are already out and active, putting your dogs and cats at risk.

💊 Protect your pet AND get rewarded!
When you purchase any size box (3 or 6 doses) of NexGard PLUS or Nexgard Combo:
✔️ Get ONE FREE DOSE
✔️ Be entered into a raffle to win a Blackstone Griddle 🔥
✔️Rebates also available!

🚨 Why prevention matters:
• Fleas can cause intense itching, skin infections, and tapeworms
• Ticks can transmit serious diseases like Lyme disease
• Heartworms are spread by mosquitoes and can cause severe lung disease, heart failure, and even death

The good news? Prevention is simple, safe, and far more affordable than treatment.

Don’t wait until there’s a problem—stay ahead of it! Give us a call or stop by the clinic to get your pet protected today.

🐶🐱 Your pet depends on you—let’s keep them happy, healthy, and pest-free all season long!

Most pet owners assume a negative f***l test means their pet is parasite-free. But traditional flotation has real limitations. Parasites that shed eggs intermittently, organisms too small to float, and newly acquired infections can all produce false negatives. PCR testing detects parasite DNA directly, filling the gaps that standard floats leave behind.
At Soda Springs Animal Clinic, we match the test to the situation. Contact us to discuss which testing approach fits your pet.
