🐾Is your pet at a healthy weight?

Did you know that your pet's weight is only part of the picture? A Body Condition Score (BCS) helps us look at your pet's overall body shape and determine whether they are underweight, at an ideal weight, or carrying extra body fat. 🐱🐶

👋Start with the ribs
You should be able to feel your pets' ribs easily with gentle pressure, but they shouldn't be prominently visible.

👀Look from above
Your pet should have a visible waist behind their ribs.

↔️Look from the side
Their abdomen should have a gentle tuck rather than hanging straight down.

⚖Why does maintaining a healthy body condition matter?

Extra weight can contribute to:
- Joint and mobility problems
- Diabetes
- Heart and respiratory issues
- Reduced activity and quality of life

💗Every pet is different! Breed, age, muscle mass, and health conditions can all affect what a healthy body condition looks like.

Not sure where your pet falls on the BCS scale? Ask our veterinary team at your next visit!

🥰 Meet Our Pets Monday! 🥰

Every Monday, we share one of our staff members’ companion animals and give you a peek into their personality, quirks, and life at home. This week, we’re excited to introduce Melanie’s kitty, Isabella — a 4.5-year-old, DMH Calico! 🐱💞

1️⃣ How long have you had your pet and where did you get them from?
"She came into a cat rescue I worked at when she was just 7 days old, she went to a bottle baby foster for two weeks and then I took over fostering her. Her name was Bizzy - cutest little bottle baby." 🏡💕

2️⃣ What is their funniest or weirdest habit?
"She runs around the house chirping like a little bird, so cute!" 😂🐾

3️⃣ If they had a job, what would it be?
"Neighborhood watch patrol - she is always watching from her little cat window perch checking on the birds, neighborhood cats or to be the first to see me arrive home!" 🌟

4️⃣ What are their nicknames?
Izzie, sweetest little baby, pretty lady 💖

5️⃣ What’s one preventative care step you never skip for your pet?
"Bloodwork! Even though Izzie is younger I like to do bloodwork annually if possible, even if they appear healthy to catch anything early - thankfully we did and we did catch that she as anemic, so now she is getting treatment for that and feeling her best!" 💉🛡️

🦃🍂Thanksgiving Safety Tips for your Pets!

As you celebrate with family and friends, keep these Thanksgiving safety tips in mind to help your pets enjoy the holiday safely:

🍗Skip the table scraps
Rich, fatty foods can cause stomach upset and may contribute to pancreatitis

🧅Keep onions, garlic, and other toxic foods away
Some common Thanksgiving ingredients can be harmful to pets

🍫Watch the sweets
Chocolate, xylitol, and other ingredients found in desserts can be toxic to pets.

🍖No bones
Cooked bones can splinter and cause serious problems if swallowed.

🗑Secure the garbage
Turkey bones, food scraps, and wrappers can be tempting but dangerous for curious pets.

🧡A little prevention goes a long way!

From our veterinary team, we wish you and your furry family members a safe and happy thanksgiving!🍂🤎

Reminder - we are closed October 12th!

🐾A little visit from Rudy!💙

Just look at this adorable Yorkie puppy! 🥹

Rudy stopped by for a visit and got some extra love from one of our veterinary technicians, Nadine! We love getting to watch our patients grow from tiny puppies into happy, healthy adults. ☺️💞

🥰 Meet Our Pets Monday! 🥰

Every Monday, we share one of our staff members’ companion animals and give you a peek into their personality, quirks, and life at home. This week, we’re excited to introduce Lindsey’s pet, Tiki — a 13 year old Pineapple Green Cheek Consure! 🐦💕

1️⃣ How long have you had your pet and where did you get them from?
"I have had her for about 6 years, and I got her from a lovely lady who rehomed her to me." 🏡💕

2️⃣ What is their funniest or weirdest habit?
"She loves cellphones, particularly when she is able to click and move things on them. Don't let her see you using one otherwise she will try to commandeer it from you. " 😂

3️⃣ If they had a job, what would it be?
"I think she would work some office job where she could have a desk in a corner to hide away from her boss and scroll through Tik Tok all day instead of actually working." 🌟

4️⃣ What are their nicknames?
Tweakers, Teeks, Brat 💖

5️⃣ What’s one preventative care step you never skip for your pet?
"Weekly weigh ins. For birds, they are incredibly good at hiding illness, frequently only showing symptoms once its quite serious. Weighing them weekly can help track any weight loss, which could indicate illness, helping catch any potential issues right away." 💉🛡️

🐾Is your senior pet slowing down? It could be arthritis.🐾

As pets get older, it's easy to assume that sleeping more, moving slower, or avoiding the stairs is simply part of aging but these can also be signs of arthritis and chronic pain.

Watch for subtle changes like:
🐕Taking longer to get up or lie down
🐾Hesitating before stairs or jumping onto furniture
😴Sleeping more or changing sleeping positions
🚶🏻Going for shorter walks or tiring more quickly
🤨Becoming less interested in play
🫧Changes in grooming habits
💞Becoming more irritable or less tolerant of handling

The good news? Arthritis doesn't have to mean your pet has to live with untreated pain. Your veterinary team can assess your pet and discuss options to help keep them comfortable and maintain their quality of life.

🍂Fall is a great time for a senior pet wellness check. If you've noticed changes in how your pet moves or behaves, don't assume they're "just getting old."

📲Contact our clinic to book a senior pet assessment!

🥰 Meet Our Pets Monday! 🥰

Every Monday, we share one of our staff members’ companion animals and give you a peek into their personality, quirks, and life at home. This week, we’re excited to introduce Kendra’s dog, Winston — a 10-month-old, Pomeranian X! 🐾💙

1️⃣ How long have you had your pet and where did you get them from?
"I have had Winston since May of this year and got him from Northern Transitional Dog Rescue" 🏡💕

2️⃣ What is their funniest or weirdest habit?
"Winston is an overall quirky little guy! I like to say that he is a big dog trapped in a small dogs body as he sure has big dog energy! Its hard to pick just one weird habit but if I did, it would be his need to roll in the smelliest of things or he likes to make the strangest noises when he is rolling to dry off. " 😂🐾

3️⃣ If they had a job, what would it be?
"He would be an Interior Designer- because everyday he likes to rearrange my room on the daily!" 🌟

4️⃣ What are their nicknames?
Winnie, Win-win, Winsty💖

5️⃣ What’s one preventative care step you never skip for your pet?
"Like my cats, I have Winston on a dental diet to help keep his teeth clean in conjunction with manual brushing. " 💉🛡️
