Today is National Rescue Dog Day and it brings wit

Today is National Rescue Dog Day and it brings with it a promise of love, friendship, and kindness. Adopting, or even just fostering, helps people and the animals in the long run.

Aw! We hope they get adopted together! Proof that good dental care leads to good things!

“It was love at first sight! Or first dental? We’re not sure, but Chihuahua mixes, Peanut and Cashew, met after their dental surgeries at the San Antonio Humane Society (SAHS), and the connection was paws-sitively adorable!
Nine-year-old Peanut was making amazing progress on his health journey when he first laid eyes on 3-year-old Cashew. Both pups were recently surrendered by their families who could no longer take care of them, and during their stay in our medical building, they quickly bonded and became inseparable.
To celebrate their love and recovery journey, the SAHS held a small, intimate wedding ceremony today surrounded by staff, volunteers and closest friends. The event included a beautiful walk down the aisle, bubbles, music and cake, of course.
Peanut and Chestnut are now available for adoption at the SAHS and are so excited to meet their new families. Although we would love to see them continue their lifelong honeymoon fur-ever together, Peanut and Cashew do not have to go home together. It was a short summer fling after all. How does the saying go? ‘Til adoption do us part? Something like that!’”

It’s National Graduation Tassel Day! Congratulat

It’s National Graduation Tassel Day! Congratulations to all the graduates this year and in years past. 🎓

Pictured here is Willow and London, the day of their graduation from basic obedience school. Did you know it’s never too late to teach an old dog new tricks? Whether it’s to learn the basics or move on to more advanced training, working with your dog provides a great chance to bond with each other. A well trained dog is a happier dog, and has a happier human as well!

Microchips save lives…It’s National Chip Your

Microchips save lives…It’s National Chip Your Pet Month! Have you had your pet microchipped? If not, here are some compelling reasons why you should:

1. Microchipping your pet improves their odds of being reunited with you if they ever go missing. A study by The Ohio State University found that microchipped cats were 20 times more likely to be returned to their owners when turned over to a shelter than non-microchipped cats and microchipped dogs had more than a 2.5 times greater chance than non-microchipped dogs.
2. It’s quick. Microchipping your pet takes seconds. The microchip itself is about the size of a grain of rice. Your vet will no doubt employ distraction techniques—like giving a high value treat—while giving the injection. Microchips can also be implanted while your pet when your pet is under anesthesia for their spay/neuter surgery or a dental cleaning.
3. It’s inexpensive. If your pet is already our patient, a microchip can be given with a nurse’s exam, and registration is included! typically costs less than $50 and we take care of the registration fees!

If your pet isn’t microchipped, give us a call to schedule their appointment and have greater peace of mind.

Today’s spotlight is on canine hip dysplasia. Th

Today’s spotlight is on canine hip dysplasia. This is a common skeletal condition that can happen to any size or breed of dog. This painful condition results when the ball and socket of the hip joint do not fit or develop properly, and they rub and grind instead of sliding smoothly. This causes deterioration over time and an eventual loss of function of the joint itself, drastically reducing a dog’s quality of life.

Genetics play a role in hip dysplasia, but there are many other factors that come into play as well, such as excessive growth rate, types of exercise, improper weight, and unbalanced nutrition that can magnify this genetic predisposition.

Improper nutrition can also influence a dog’s likelihood of developing hip dysplasia, as can giving a dog too much or too little exercise. Obesity puts a lot of stress on your dog’s joints, which can exacerbate hip dysplasia or even cause it.

Some dogs begin to show signs of hip dysplasia when they are as young as four months of age. Others develop it in conjunction with osteoarthritis as they age. Symptoms include:

• Decreased activity
• Decreased range of motion
• Difficulty or reluctance rising, jumping, running, or climbing stairs
• Lameness in the hind end
• Swaying, “bunny hopping” gait
• Grating in the joint during movement
• Loss of thigh muscle mass
• Noticeable enlargement of the shoulder muscles as they compensate for the hind end
• Pain
• Stiffness or limping

Speak with your veterinarian if you suspect your dog has hip dysplasia as there are many options for treating hip dysplasia in dogs, ranging from lifestyle modifications to surgery including:

• Weight reduction to take stress off of the hips
• Exercise restriction, especially on hard surfaces
• Physical therapy
• Joint supplements
• Anti-inflammatory medications (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids)
• Joint fluid modifiers
• Surgical options

A recent study shows that most dog owners don’t

A recent study shows that most dog owners don’t follow the FDA pet food handling guidelines.

Did you know that you should wash your hands after you feed your pet? Or that you should prepare your pet’s food on a different surface than where you prepare food for your family?

These and other recommendations are in place to help minimize contamination and potential disease spread.
