Due to the current Covid 19 crisis, we have changed our hours and process to protect our clients and our staff.

1. We will be open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
2. We have started having clients wait at their cars, a staff member will come receive the pet, the doctor will then communicate with you via cell phone.
3. We have split our staff in half between our two locations to reduce person to person contact. If you are seeing Drs. Johnston, Docken, Greenhouse, and Westbrook they will be at Banning Veterinary Hospital. If you are seeing Drs. Ryan, Chao, or Barkley, you will see them at The Veterinary Surgical Center in Beaumont at 320 E. 6th Street. Doctors will speak to owners via cell phone during the exam and diagnostics.
4. We have temporarily eliminated our Urgent Care hours and Saturday hours to allow for this situation to pass while remaining open.
5. We encourage you to request prescription refills ahead by phone and we will bring those directly to your car in the parking lot.
6. Dog and Cat food will also be delivered to your car.

We hope you and your family stay well.

We are now offering a mobile app where you can access your pet's medical records and x-rays anytime, anywhere. It's called VitusVet and you can download it for free on Google Play or the App Store. Schedule appointments and request prescription refills right from the app and get notified when appointments are scheduled and medications have been refilled. Once downloaded, sign up with your email and medical records are updated as they get updated in the hospital. If you don't have an email address in our system, let us know and we'll get it in so that you can sign up. We use our mobile devices for everything else, so why not start using it for everything that has to do with our hospital and your pets. We're excited to make this app available to all of our clients for easy access to all your pets records and information. Contact us with any questions http://banningvet.com/contact-us/

Sand Colic in Horses: Although we see sand colic in horses in our area all year, during and right after heavy rain is a particularly bad time. The ground becomes very soft and when horses on pasture pull up grass while browsing, they get the roots and all of the dirt in them at the same time. This sand builds up in the intestines leading to sand impactions and sand colic. Consider keeping horses off pasture when there is heavy rain for long enough to allow the ground to dry so that the roots hold to the ground when the grass is pulled on.

This year we are having a bumper crop of ground squirrels. And with them has come an unusual number of flea cases. The pass area is usually a low flea area. But we are seeing record numbers of dogs and cats itching like crazy and finding it to be related to fleas. Worse, many dogs and cats have so few fleas that the fleas are not being recognized as the problem until usual treatments for summertime allergies have failed. If you have a pet for whom usual allergy medications are not working, try flea treatment with Frontline Plus, Nexgard, Simparica, or Advantage and see if the "allergy" goes away.

Lately I've gotten lots of dogs in that have anxiety problems. Destroying the house or barking wildly when owners leave is the most common complaint but some dogs are just so worried they can't be trained or interacted with normally like this cute poodle. Others chew themselves persistently without actually itching. Although one treatment is not absolutely right for every dog, Prozac helps many of them. This poodle was untreatable for simple issues when we first met. One month into treatment for anxiety this poodle is becoming a normal patient who can be handled by doctors and owners. Dogs who chew themselves persistently usually stop. And dogs that destroy the house usually begin to relax and just wait for your return.

The green foxtail grass we discussed earlier on our page is causing us to find dogs with symptoms of gagging, "vomiting" that is usually actually just retching up phlegm, insomnia, and unwillingness to eat sometimes due to pain swallowing. The picture below is of foxtail fronds or "splinters" that stick into the flesh of the tonsils, tongue, gums, and walls of the throat. We end up picking them out under anesthesia. If left alone they eventually cause abscesses that can be severe problems. Don't allow pets to chew on foxtail grass.

FLOWERS AND ANNIVERSARIES: First, Jennifer Mendoza, our office manager, has been with us 25 years today! We don't run without her. She is my brain when I need to remember things, keeps the medicine ordered, and the staff trained. Thank you Jen. Second, Sun Lakes Florist (Mark Moosebrugger) never fails to make a great arrangement of flowers for me and bails me out when I find another birthday or anniversary that I only noticed the day of. His flowers are always great. I wish this was the first time he had pulled off a fabulous bouquet for me because I realize an anniversary or birthday or valentines is upon me while I am doing surgery, but there have been many years when his fabulous flowers made me look like I never forget. Thanks to both of you for making my clinic and personal life work.

Rattlesnake Avoidance Training is available March 19th. The first rattlesnake sighting of the year in Bogart Park by one of our clients was this weekend. Be careful out there!! Every year we lose a few dogs and treat and save a couple dozen. The trainer charges $75 for one dog and $65 each for two dogs or more. Watch for them to be extra grumpy in early spring when they are hungry and hunting at times you are out with your dog. Mid hot summer they tend to be out when we are in bed. In Fall they are back to patterns that get dogs in trouble. We do keep antivenom in stock all year if your dog gets bitten. It is not true that dogs develop immunity from previous bites. Living or dying is mostly determined by the volume of venom and when the volume is large, by whether they get antivenom.
