Leptospirosis: a risk every pet owner should know about. 🐾

Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection that can affect dogs and may cause serious illness, including damage to the kidneys and liver. It can be spread through contact with contaminated water or soil, as well as urine from infected animals.

And exposure isn’t limited to dogs who spend lots of time outdoors. Even dogs who mostly stay close to home or live in a city can be exposed.

Signs of leptospirosis can vary, but may include:
🐾 Fever or lethargy
🐾 Vomiting or diarrhea
🐾 Increased thirst or urination
🐾 Loss of appetite
🐾 Jaundice (yellowing of the skin, gums, or whites of the eyes)
🐾 Muscle pain or weakness

The good news? Leptospirosis can often be prevented with vaccination. Talk with your veterinarian about whether the leptospirosis vaccine is appropriate for your dog.

If your dog is showing signs of illness or you’re concerned about a possible exposure, contact your veterinarian promptly.

You asked, we answered!

After our video of our Small-webbed Bell Toad getting his eye pressure checked went viral, we saw so many questions in the comments. So, we put together a follow-up video where Dr. Caron, our Board-Certified Specialist in Reptile & Amphibian Practice (DABVP), answers some of the most common questions we received in the comments.

If you watched the first video, here’s the update you’ve been waiting for.

What does “board-certified” really mean — and how can it benefit your pet? 🐾

Veterinary medicine has specialties, just like human medicine. A board-certified veterinarian has completed advanced training in a specific area of veterinary medicine and met rigorous certification requirements established by their specialty college.

Becoming a specialist takes years of dedication. After veterinary school, most specialists complete a rigorous internship and multi-year residency focused on their specialty. This includes extensive clinical training, advanced case experience, and often research. They must also pass comprehensive specialty examinations and continue their education to maintain their expertise.

So, what does that mean for your pet?

When your pet faces a complex condition, needs advanced diagnostics, or requires specialized treatment, a board-certified specialist brings in-depth knowledge and focused experience to their care.

Their specialized training can help them:

🐾 Take a deeper look at complex conditions
🐾 Evaluate challenging or specialized cases
🐾 Determine which advanced diagnostics may be appropriate
🐾 Discuss treatment options specific to your pet
🐾 Work alongside your pet’s care team to guide next steps

At Oradell Animal Hospital, our board-certified specialists work alongside primary care veterinarians and other members of your pet’s care team. By bringing different areas of expertise together, we can provide thoughtful, coordinated care tailored to each patient.

Our specialty team includes expertise in neurology, cardiology, internal medicine, oncology, surgery, exotic animal medicine, and more.

Board certification represents years of additional training, focused expertise, and dedication to a specific field of veterinary medicine. For your pet, it means access to specialized knowledge and experience when they need it most. ❤️

We had a great evening of learning with Dr. Levshin at our CE Dinner, “Right Out of the Gait: Understanding How Animals Walk.” It was a wonderful opportunity to learn more about gait evaluation and what our patients’ movements can tell us. 🐾

A special thank you to Hill’s Pet Nutrition for co-sponsoring the evening and helping us continue to provide valuable educational opportunities for our veterinary community.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening such a success! We truly appreciate your continued support and look forward to seeing you at our next CE event! 💙

Duck Duck Update 🦆

We’re happy to share an update on Duck Duck, the Pekin duck who was previously seen at Oradell Animal Hospital for a fractured humerus.

Under the care of Dr. Caron, Duck Duck underwent a wing amputation after treatment options were discussed with her owners. She did very well through surgery, recovered uneventfully, and was able to return home the following day.

She even laid an egg the night after surgery—a pretty impressive recovery milestone! 🥚

Since returning home, Duck Duck has continued to heal well. She came in today for her final healing check, and we’re pleased to report that she is doing very well.

We’re grateful to have been part of Duck Duck’s care and are happy to see her continuing to thrive at home.
