Part I: Mosquito Protection for Dogs & Cats

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

Dogs

Mosquito Concerns in Dogs: general discomfort from bites especially for dogs with allergies, Heartworm (three confirmed cases at Dogwood Pet Hospital), West Nile (one confirmed case in West Linn).

Recommendations:

  • Deet Wipes — lightly wipe ears, nose, and underbelly.
  • Avon Skin So Soft
  • Give a monthly heartworm preventative:  Sentinel (tablet), Heartgard Plus (chewable treat form), and Revolution (topical). We recommend Sentinel since it has the added benefit of flea and certain intestinal parasite prevention.

Cats

Mosquito Concerns in Cats: general discomfort from bites  especially for cats with allergies.  Although hearmworm in cats is extremely low in this area, it does exist.

Recommendations:

  • Deet Wipes — lightly wipe ears, nose, and underbelly.
  • Avon Skin So Soft.
  • Monthly heartworm preventive available:  Revolution (topical).

May 2009 – Cassie

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

May is finally here, and we’re featuring a little ray of sunshine, Sadie an 8-year-old Burmese kitty. She’s been a patient since 2003 with mostly healthy visits. Recently, she gained weight and started drinking and urinating excessively . Dr. Prull thoroughly examined, ran blood tests, and diagnosed Sadie with diabetes. Her plan includes feeding a special diet, giving daily insulin injections, and routine glucose tests. We all look forward to seeing her!

P.S. — Happy Birthday Sadie!
