🐾 September is Pet Pain Awareness Month 🐾

One of the hardest things about being a pet owner is that our pets can’t tell us when something hurts.

Pets are incredibly good at hiding pain. Sometimes the signs are subtle:
• Sleeping more than usual
• Not wanting to jump, climb stairs, or play
• Limping or moving differently
• Hiding or becoming less social
• Changes in appetite
• Panting when they haven’t been exercising
• Licking or chewing at one particular area
• Acting grumpy or irritable
• Trouble getting comfortable
• Simply seeming… not quite like themselves

Pain isn’t just something we treat when it becomes an emergency. Recognizing it early can make a huge difference in your pet’s comfort and quality of life.

This month, take a minute to really watch your pet. ❤️
Because sometimes the biggest clue that something hurts is simply that they’re not acting like themselves. And you know your pet best!

THINGS YOUR VET WILL NEVER TELL YOU…
But we probably should...

* “Your pet hiding pain doesn’t mean they aren’t in pain.”
* “Annual exams aren’t just about vaccines.”
* “Please don’t Google your pet’s symptoms at 2 AM. 😂 new fears don’t need to be unlocked”
* “Preventative care is cheaper than emergency care.”
* “Heartworm prevention isn’t optional just because your dog stays in the yard.”
* “Indoor cats still need veterinary care.”
* “Your pet being overweight isn’t just a cosmetic issue.”
* “Please tell us what your pet actually eats. We’re not judging. 😂”
* “Human medications are NOT automatically safe for pets.”
* “Don’t wait until your pet stops eating for three days to call us.”
* “A change in behavior can be a medical symptom.”
* “Your pet can’t tell you where it hurts. Sometimes we have to investigate.”
* “One year for us is a much bigger deal for them.”
* “Dental disease doesn’t stay in the mouth.
* “If you notice something different, you know your pet better than anyone. Tell us.”
* “And no, we don’t think your question is stupid. We’ve heard it all. 😂”
* “Yes, we really do need to know when they last pooped.”

Does Your Dog Need a Nose Job? 👃🐶

Okay, hear us out… your Frenchie might actually need a nose job! 😂

This is called stenotic nares correction, or alar fold resection, and while it may look like a little cosmetic makeover, it’s actually a quality-of-life procedure designed to help improve airflow through those adorable smooshed faces.

🐾 What does it do?
Some brachycephalic dogs have nostrils that are too narrow, making it harder to breathe. During this procedure, a small amount of tissue is removed to open the nostrils and allow more air to pass through.

✨ The best part?
Depending on the technique used, this can be a quick procedure with no external sutures, minimal visible change beyond a more open nostril, and a relatively fast recovery.

And we’re not just talking about making your pup look a little more polished…

We’re talking about breathing easier, exercising more comfortably, tolerating heat better, and improving overall quality of life. ❤️

If your dog snores like a freight train, struggles to breathe through their nose, tires quickly, or seems to have a hard time keeping up because of their breathing, talk to your veterinarian about whether they may benefit from a BOAS evaluation.

Because sometimes, the best nose job isn’t about looking better…

It’s about breathing better. 🐽✨

🐾 Is your dog constantly scratching, licking, chewing, or keeping you up all night with the itch? 🐾

It doesn’t have to be that way.

Itchy skin is one of the most common reasons we see dogs, and while allergies can’t always be cured, they can be managed so your pet can finally find relief.

At Wasatch Animal Clinic, we’ll work with you to find the treatment plan that best fits your dog’s needs and your lifestyle. That might include:
💊 A simple daily medication
💉 A long-lasting monthly injection
🥣 Diet changes or prescription nutrition
🌿 Allergy management and skin care recommendations
🩺 Additional diagnostics if needed to get to the root of the problem

Every dog is different, and what works for one may not be the best option for another. That’s why we’re here to create a personalized plan that helps your dog feel comfortable again.

Don’t let the scratching become your dog’s “normal.” Relief may be just one appointment away.

Summer adventures are fun… but they can also be painful if we forget what’s under our pets’ feet.

When the air temperature is 85°F, asphalt can reach 130°F or more. At those temperatures, paw pads can burn in less than a minute.

🐶 Try the 7-Second Test:
Place the back of your hand on the pavement for 7 seconds.
✋ Too hot for your hand? It’s too hot for your pet’s paws.

Here are a few ways to keep your furry family members safe:
🐾 Walk during the early morning or later evening.
🌳 Stick to grass, dirt trails, or shaded paths whenever possible.
💧 Bring fresh water and take frequent breaks.
🏡 Keep outdoor play sessions short during the hottest parts of the day.
👀 Watch for signs of burned paw pads, including limping, excessive licking, redness, blisters, or reluctance to walk.

Remember, dogs don’t always realize the ground is too hot until they’re already injured.

If you think your pet has burned their paws or is showing signs of heat stress, contact Wasatch Animal Clinic right away. Early treatment can prevent further pain and complications.

Stay cool, stay hydrated, and keep those paws protected this summer!
