In order to continue your pet’s recovery at home, this video can give you additional information and helpful instructions. If you have any questions or concerns, please call us.

GI Upset

Gastroenteritis is the inflammation of the stomach and/or the intestines, also called the gastrointestinal tract.

Giardia Infection and Treatment

Giardia is an intestinal parasite found in the environment that inhibits your dog’s ability to properly absorb nutrients, water, and electrolytes; which leads to diarrhea and weight loss.

Ear Cleaning

Infection of the external ear canal (outer ear infection) is called otitis externa and is one of the most common types of infections seen in dogs.

Nail Trims Dogs

It is not too late to begin training your dog to get their nails trimmed. You can make this experience a positive one. Nail trims should be done in the position that is best for your dog, whether they are sitting, standing, or lying down. Choose a location where your dog is most comfortable such as on your lap. Consider lateral recumbency for toenail trims as noted above in the video guide.

Nail Trims Cats

It is not too late to begin training your cat to get their nails trimmed. You can make this experience a positive one. Nail trims should be done in the position that is best for your cat, whether they are sitting, standing, or lying down. Choose a location where your cat is most comfortable such as on your lap, or on their favorite perch.

Fluids At Home

We will begin by assuming that the drip set, needle, and fluid bag are already connected and the patient has been placed on the work surface (floor, table, counter, back of sofa, etc). The fluid set should be hanging from a location higher than the level of the patient.
