What an acute kidney injury can look like in dogs & cats 🐾

An acute kidney injury can develop suddenly and become serious quickly. Recognizing the signs early can help make a difference in your pet’s recovery.

Watch for these symptoms:
• Increased thirst and urination
• Loss of control with urine
• Little to no urination
• Blood in urine
• Vomiting
• Lethargy
• Diarrhea
• Bad breath
• Abdominal pain
• Weight loss
• Low body temperature (hypothermia)

If you notice any of these changes, don’t wait. Acute kidney issues can progress rapidly and benefit from prompt veterinary care.

Does my pet need anesthesia for a dental cleaning?

Yes, anesthesia is essential for safe, thorough, and low-stress dental cleaning for pets.

During a professional dental procedure, anesthesia allows veterinarians to clean below the gumline, where plaque, tartar, and bacteria build up over time. If left untreated, these things can lead to painful infections and long-term damage.

Anesthesia also ensures your pet remains still and comfortable, making it possible to perform a complete oral exam, dental X-rays, and any necessary extractions or treatments with minimal pain or fear.

Skipping anesthesia can mean missing serious dental issues that aren’t visible on the surface.

At Banfield Northville, we prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort every step of the way with carefully monitored anesthesia and dental care.

Is your pet constantly itching? It might be allergies! 🐾

Dog and cat allergy symptoms often show up on their skin and in their behavior. As the weather warms up, environmental triggers like pollen and grass can be major culprits.

If your pet is experiencing any of these signs, it may be time for a checkup:
• Chewing, biting, rubbing, scratching, or excessive licking
• Licking paws
• Inflamed or irritated skin
• Ear infections
• Eye discharge
• Sneezing
• Hair loss

Don’t wait for symptoms to get worse. Addressing them sooner will help your pet get back to being comfortable.

Feline and canine cognitive dysfunction 🐾

As pets age, you may begin to notice changes in their behavior. Cognitive decline can affect your dog or cat’s memory, awareness, and daily routines.

Common signs to watch for include:
• Disorientation in familiar places
• New aggression or hostility
• Lethargy
• Altered interactions with people or other pets
• Losing house-training
• Wandering, pacing, or whining
• Changes in balance or body posture

Early recognition is key. With proper care and veterinary support, many pets can maintain their quality of life as they age.

Banfield Northville is here to help you recognize the signs and support your senior pet every step of the way.

What causes ear infections in dogs?
If your dog scratches their ears, shakes their head a lot, or seems uncomfortable, they may have an ear infection. A few factors may contribute to it:
- Ear size, shape, and amount of hair
- Allergies
- Foreign materials or ear masses
- Ear mites

Don't let them suffer or let the problem get worse. At Banfield Northville, we can help identify the root cause of ear irritation and get your dog back to feeling their best.

May is National Chip Your Pet Month

Help protect your dog or cat with microchipping, which is a reliable way to identify your pet if they’re ever lost, even if their collar slips off. A pet microchip is a tiny device (about the size of a grain of rice) that’s implanted just under your pet’s skin, usually between the shoulder blades. A vet or shelter can scan the chip to reveal a unique ID number that’s linked to your contact information in a secure database.
Schedule a visit with Banfield in Northville to learn more about microchipping. 🐶🐱

Puppy separation anxiety: what's normal and what's not

Separation anxiety can lead to behaviors such as whining, barking, destructive chewing, or attempts to escape.

However, some behaviors may indicate that your puppy needs additional support. Reach out to your veterinarian if you notice:

- Self-injury from chewing, digging, or escape attempts
- Refusing food or water when alone
- Vomiting, diarrhea, or sudden regression in training
- Anxiety that persists or worsens despite consistent training

Not sure if it’s anxiety or something else? We’re here to help. Schedule a veterinary visit to discuss your puppy’s behavior and find the best way to support their well-being. 🐾

Cat immunizations: why they matter

Kittens should begin their first vaccinations at about 6–8 weeks of age, followed by booster shots every few weeks until they are around 16 weeks old. The FVRCP vaccine (also known as distemper shot) protects against three serious diseases, while the rabies vaccine is a regulatory requirement in most counties. Adult cats should get regular booster vaccines to maintain that immunity long term.
Schedule a veterinary visit with Banfield in Northville to review your cat’s vaccination schedule and help keep your feline friend healthy and protected. 🐾
