Did you know ringworm can be transmitted to other dogs, cats, or humans through direct contact or through objects like bedding, brushes, water bowls, and toys? Here are some signs to look out for.

LAP: Lacey Approved Product

We have had these great collars for just over 2 months now. I put one on Lacey early June, just replaced it in early August with a new one as they last 2 months. I am noticing that her skin and coat are shiny and moist, but more importantly, I am finding I do not have to use the allergy injection cytopoint anywhere close to as often. In the summertime, the most I can get out of a cytopoint injection for her is 2.5 months and we are now at almost 4 months in ! She also has been receiving Suprelorin hormone balancing implants for 3 years once every 6 months and that hads also made a substantial difference in the frequency of the cytopoint, but together with the Atocare collar it's quite remarkable! If you have an allergic dog, this is something we would recommend.

If you have a cat that goes outdoors, be sure to provide them with plenty of shade and access to water. Just like dogs, cats cannot sweat effectively enough to cool their bodies down and are more susceptible to overheating. Take a look at some of the common signs your cat may be suffering from heatstroke. If you think your cat is suffering from heatstroke, call their veterinarian or your nearest veterinary emergency hospital right away.

What can make you smile a little on such a smoky stinky day? Well, both my hubby and I forgot our prescription glasses today at home so we had to hunt through the several pairs of dollar store glasses we have here for clients that forget theirs to find ones that "work"! We've used pipe cleaners so users remember not to tuck them in their bag or pocket as they finish their transactions! We've also left the sticker rating on the lens, LOL.

If your pet ingests large amounts of salt it can lead to vomiting, an increase in body temperature, seizures, and even death. So, keep your pets away from salty foods like chips, fries, and processed meats.
