Serving time for Grape crime...

Leo thought it was a brilliant idea to counter surf and steal some grapes from Dad. Luckily for Leo, Dad called the Pet Poison Hot Line and brought him straight to us. With a little help retrieving all 47 grapes and some IV fluid therapy, Leo is on the mend and back at home with his family.

-Did you know grapes and raisins are toxic to dogs? Ingesting even a small amount can lead to sudden kidney failure. Common signs to watch for include:

Vomiting and diarrhea (often within a few hours)
Lethargy, weakness, or trembling
Loss of appetite or abdominal pain
Decreased or no urination

What to do:

-Stay calm and note how much and when your pet ate.

-Call our clinic or an emergency veterinary hospital immediately — treatment is most effective when started quickly.

-Do NOT wait for symptoms to appear. Emergency treatment may include induced vomiting and supportive care to protect the kidneys.

If you’re unsure, call us now — we’re here to help 469-598-1944.

Recognize and Respond to Heat Stroke in Dogs

Why it’s serious: Dogs can overheat quickly; heat stroke causes organ failure and can be fatal within hours.

Risk factors: Brachycephalic breeds (short-nosed), senior dogs, puppies, obese pets, heavy-coated breeds, dogs with heart or respiratory disease, and dogs exercising in hot/humid weather.
Signs to watch for: extreme panting, drooling, red or pale gums, glazed eyes, weakness, confusion, vomiting or diarrhea (often bloody), collapse, seizures, or unconsciousness.

Immediate steps to take: Move your dog to shade or an air-conditioned area.
Offer cool (not ice) water in small amounts if alert.
Apply cool, wet towels to neck, chest, and paws; fan to increase evaporation.
Avoid ice baths — rapid cooling can cause shock.
Transport to our emergency hospital immediately and call ahead so we’re ready.

At the hospital: We’ll monitor temperature, provide IV fluids, control body temperature safely, check for blood-clotting/organ damage, and give supportive care.

Prevention: Never leave dogs in cars, provide plenty of fresh water and shade, limit exercise during heat, acclimate dogs gradually, and be extra cautious with vulnerable breeds.

If you think your dog has heat stroke, don’t wait — call us now: 469-598-1944.

This past week our team trained with Dr. Young on advanced hemodialysis (HD) for pets. HD is an extracorporeal therapy that removes toxins, corrects acid–base and electrolyte imbalances, and manages fluid overload by filtering blood across a semipermeable membrane. It’s used as a temporary bridge in severe acute kidney injury (life‑threatening uremia, refractory hyperkalemia, severe fluid overload, or acidemia) and, rarely, for select chronic kidney disease patients not responding to medical therapy.

Dr. Young and our Critical Care team are on-site Wednesday–Friday and available for consultations on severe cases the rest of the week. Call us at 469‑598‑1944 to discuss your pet’s needs. 🩺🐾

Here fishy fishy!

Sweet little Boone thought it would be a fun and exciting time to chew up and ingest a bottle of ibuprofen. Unfortunately, he didn’t realize that ibuprofen is very dangerous for dogs.

Thankfully, his mom acted quickly—bringing him to their veterinarian and contacting Pet Poison Control right away. Through a collaborative effort between his primary vet, Pet Poison Control, our ER doctors, and Critical Care with Dr. Young’s team, we were able to move fast and start hemoperfusion. This treatment helped remove the toxin from his blood before it could cause damage to his kidneys.

We’re so glad Boone is on the road to recovery 💙

Hemoperfusion is a form of extracorporeal blood purification (meaning the blood is treated outside the body). Blood is pulled from the dog through an IV catheter, passed through a cartridge filled with adsorbent material (often activated charcoal), and then returned to the body.

Think of it like a “blood filter” specifically designed to remove toxins directly from circulation.

Hemoperfusion is an advanced, hospital-based detox procedure used in severe cases of ibuprofen toxicity in dogs—especially when a dog has ingested a large dose or is already showing serious symptoms.

Dr Young and her Nephrology/Critical Care team are here Thursday thru Saturday and can be there for consultations on a case by case basis thur our ER department.

Shhhhhh!!! Don't wake the baby!!

Little Buffy was curious about some mushrooms she had found in her backyard, but unfortunately for her, they were toxic mushrooms that caused severe nausea and drooling. Thankfully, her Mom acted quickly and rushed her to us! With some IV fluids and anti-nausea medications, she bounced back to her cute puppy self! She did so well; she deserved some TV time while we continued to monitor her closely. Buffy loves watching Bluey! She promptly took a nice little nap before her mom came to pick her up.

Spring has sprung — and so have hazardous plants and mushrooms. 🌷🍄🐾

Springtime brings beautiful blooms and fungi, but many common plants and wild mushrooms are toxic to pets. Keep your furry family safe:

Common toxic plants & bulbs
- Tulips & hyacinths — vomiting, drooling, tremors
- Lilies (especially dangerous to cats) — kidney failure
- Daffodils — vomiting, diarrhea, cardiac issues
- Sago palm — severe liver failure, vomiting
- Azaleas & rhododendrons — weakness, drooling, slow heart rate
- Oleander — life‑threatening heart problems

Mushroom risks
- Wild mushrooms can cause GI upset, neurological signs (disorientation, seizures), liver or kidney failure, depending on species. Even a small amount can be dangerous — never assume a mushroom is safe.

Warning signs of plant or mushroom poisoning
- Vomiting or diarrhea
- Excessive drooling
- Lethargy or weakness
- Tremors, seizures, wobbliness or collapse
- Difficulty breathing
- Loss of appetite

What to do if you suspect ingestion
1. Remove your pet from the area and keep any plant/mushroom material or take a clear photo.
2. Call us immediately at 469-598-1944 or your regular vet.
3. Bring a sample or photo of the plant/mushroom if you come in.
4. Do NOT induce vomiting unless instructed by a veterinarian or poison control.

We’re open 24/7 for emergencies — fast treatment can save lives. Please share to help other pet parents stay safe this spring! 🌼❤️

Watch out for:
🧹 Cleaning chemicals (bleach, disinfectants, sprays)
🧼 Essential oils and diffusers
🐜 Rodent or insect traps
🚪 Open doors or gates during cleaning

Wait until floors and cleaned surfaces are dry before letting your pet into the room.

Even small exposures can cause vomiting, drooling, breathing issues, or worse.

If you think your pet may have gotten into something they shouldn’t, seek care right away. We’re open 24/7, so call us anytime for guidance or emergency care at (469) 598-1944 or visit us at 9560 Legacy Dr. Suite 200 in Frisco.
