DR. B'S TIPS
pudgy pooch?
Diet starts… today. Carrying extra weight creates stress on joints and directly correlates with a shorter lifespan. So, toss those table scraps and treats—and opt for healthy alternatives (like carrot and apples.) In the words of Dr. B, “show love with petting and playing instead.”
DR. B'S TIPS
smelly smooches?
No pet parent likes smelly smooches. But, did you know that poor dental hygiene can cause behavioral changes and decrease overall health? Be sure to brush your furry friend’s teeth and give them dental chews. Most importantly, don’t miss your pet’s annual checkup.
DR. B'S TIPS
midlife crisis?
Pets age seven times as fast as we do. So, while you’re opting for Botox or trying CrossFit, your furry friend is rapidly maturing. Attending annual checkups ensure there’s a health history just in case new and unusual symptoms should arise.
DR. B'S TIPS
bugging out?
When it comes to parasites, prevention is the best plan. Flees, ticks, and heartworm can result in unpleasant or lethal infestation. Easily avoidable, Dr. B recommends year-round medication, especially when urban pets take seaside staycations or impromptu hikes.
DR. B'S TIPS
scaredy cat?
You and your pet shouldn’t feel anxiety-ridden every time you visit the vet. Dr. B recommends finding a certified Fear Free clinic that puts the patient first. With a series of governing principles, the Fear Free practice reduces fear, anxiety, and stress right from the start.
DR. B'S TIPS
feeling isolated?
Don’t use your precious PTO on vet visits. Core vaccinations, like rabies and bordetella shots, are required. But, Dr. B encourages assessing each pet’s individual environment. In many cases, canine influenza can result in sickness for over four weeks. Meaning? No puppy classes or doggy daycare for your pooch.
Our young cat recently had a scare with bladder stones, that left usconfused and worried. Dr. Kelly was able to provide immediate, unscheduled care for her on the same day we noticed symptoms; a luxury that many city pet parents know is hard to come by. The staff was patient and compassionate, being sure to inform us of our options, and celebrate with us.
