NEVER toss your dog in the water to make them swim! According to Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine, studies show that although most dogs can dog paddle, some cannot keep their head above water or propel themselves forward. Dogs at most danger of drowning are the flat faced/short nosed, or brachycephalic breeds, like French bulldogs, pugs, and Boston terriers. If your dog cannot swim and is around water…use a doggie life jacket!

An important reminder with the hot weather in our forecast! Being left in an unattended car is a leading cause of Heat Stroke in pets, and it can quickly become fatal. And…according to Snohomish County Sheriffs Office: It’s illegal to “leave or confine any animal unattended in a motor vehicle or enclosed space if the animal could be harmed or killed by exposure to excessive heat, cold, lack of ventilation, or lack of necessary water” (RCW 16.52.340). So…LEAVE YOUR PETS HOME PLEASE!

Bat season has officially started! Three of our neighbors in rural eastern Snohomish county are receiving preventative Rabies treatment due to exposure to a bat found in their home over Memorial Day weekend that tested positive for Rabies. A viral disease of the Central Nervous System, untreated Rabies is always fatal in mammals. Meaning our dogs, cats (even indoor cats!)…and us! Pets up to date on their Rabies vaccines are protected, unvaccinated pets can become infected by a scratch or bite from an infected animal. Keeping your pets up to date on their Rabies vaccines is not only a good idea…it is also the law! Washington State rule, WAC 246-100-197, states “An owner of a dog, cat, or ferret shall have it vaccinated against rabies and revaccinated following veterinary and vaccine manufacturer instructions.” Please let us know if you have questions about the vaccine status of your pets…we can help keep everyone safer!
