Farm dogs have a way of convincing everyone they are indestructible.

They run pastures, ride in trucks, investigate barns, follow equipment, chase things they probably should not chase, and somehow still show up at the door ready for dinner, seemingly unfazed.

That lifestyle also means they encounter ticks, wildlife, injuries, parasites, and plenty of opportunities to get into trouble.

Farm dogs still need routine exams, vaccines, heartworm prevention, parasite control, and dental care.

And because working dogs tend to keep going despite discomfort, take a few minutes occasionally to check paws, nails, ears, teeth, and body condition.

Tough dogs need veterinary care too. ❤️

Thumbs up if your farm dog has had their proper vet care this year 👍

The calendar changed.

Oklahoma mosquitoes did not get the memo.

As long as mosquitoes remain active, pets can still be exposed to heartworms. That is one reason consistent prevention matters, rather than guessing when mosquito season has officially ended.

Missed doses can create gaps in protection.

If you cannot remember when your dog last received heartworm prevention, or you are unsure whether testing is due, call your veterinary clinic and get back on schedule.

Consistency is much easier than treating heartworm disease.

When an animal limps, it is telling you something hurts.

The reason might be as simple as a sore paw or as complicated as an orthopedic injury.

For dogs and cats, check for broken nails, cuts, swelling, or something stuck between the toes. For livestock and horses, foot injuries, hoof problems, joint issues, and trauma can all affect movement.

Avoid the temptation to give human pain medication without veterinary guidance. Several medications commonly found in our own medicine cabinets can be dangerous for animals.

If the limp is severe, your animal will not bear weight, swelling develops, or the problem persists, give us a call.

🐾 What’s more beautiful than a sweet husky face? Meet Roxy.
🐾 Roxy came in with a septic abdomen meaning she had a leak in her intestinal tract for some reason. She was gravely ill and most likely not going to make it to the next day.
🐾 With the help of our experienced staff, Roxy quickly went into surgery, had part of her digestive tract removed(cecum to be exact), and has made a full recovery.
🐾 We are happy do report she is doing well and it was not cancer! Way to go Roxy!

A little scratching here and there is normal.

Constant head scratching and shaking is not.

Dogs with ear trouble may shake their head, scratch at one ear, rub their face against furniture, or develop redness, discharge, or an unpleasant smell from the ear.

The cause can vary. Allergies, yeast, bacteria, moisture, and foreign material can all contribute to ear problems.

Repeatedly treating the ear without knowing the cause can allow an infection or inflammation to continue.

If your dog has been shaking, scratching, or developing recurring ear trouble, it may be time to have those ears checked.

A warm Oklahoma October afternoon can still bring plenty of animal activity, including snakes.

Dogs are particularly good at putting their noses exactly where they do not belong.

If your pet encounters a snake, don't try to identify it by catching it or putting yourself at risk.

Instead, move your pet away and contact your veterinarian if you suspect a bite.

Swelling, pain, weakness, unusual bleeding, difficulty breathing, or sudden illness after an encounter should be taken seriously.

Keeping brush, debris, and clutter managed around frequently used areas can also reduce good hiding places near homes and barns.

Happy CATober 9th! 🐱🎉

CATober 9th was created as a universal birthday for shelter cats whose actual birthdays are unknown.

For many adopted cats, we may never know the exact day they were born, but that doesn't mean they should miss out on a day to celebrate.

If you have a shelter cat, today is the perfect excuse for an extra treat, a new toy, a little extra attention, or whatever your cat considers an acceptable birthday celebration. 😸

Show us your rescue cat in the comments and help us wish all of the mystery birthday cats a very happy CATober 9th!

Cleaning out the barn, garage, shed, or livestock area this fall?

Before you start moving things around, check what animals could reach.

Rodent bait, insecticides, pesticides, fertilizers, automotive fluids, cleaners, old medications, and other chemicals can easily become accessible when you reorganize storage areas.

Animals can't tell the difference between a bucket containing something harmless and one containing something dangerous.

Keep chemicals in their original labeled containers whenever possible, store them behind closed doors or in locked cabinets, and clean spills promptly.

This is especially important when barn cats, farm dogs, or curious young animals have access to the area.

Your cat goes to the litter box.

Then goes back.

Then again.

But there is little or no urine.

That deserves your attention, especially if your cat is male.

Straining to urinate can look like constipation, but urinary obstruction can become a serious emergency. Other warning signs can include crying in the litter box, excessive licking, urinating outside the box, hiding, vomiting, or acting in pain.

If you are unsure whether your cat is actually producing urine, do not assume he will work it out on his own.

Call your veterinary clinic.
