Straying In: Latest News About Vet Treatments

Mahatma Gandhi said, "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated." How incredibly insightful and true. When my children were growing up, we always had various pets on our property. My children were constantly bringing home strays to be nurtured and loved. I still have plenty of animals around because my children leave their pets with 'grandma' when they go travelling. At present, I have two dogs, three cats and a parrot! Over the years, I've always stressed the importance of regular vet visits. As soon as a stray was brought home, I would make an appointment. The simple preventative treatments provided by our vet saved a lot of money and heartache. I like to keep up to date with the latest vet treatments. I hope this blog provides useful information for those who care about animals. Thank you.

Heatstroke is a serious condition that occurs when the body's temperature rises quickly, causing damage to the brain, heart, and muscles. It can be fatal if left untreated.  Certain dogs such as Labradors and Cocker Spaniels are at a higher risk of developing heatstroke because they have short noses, which makes it harder for them to pant effectively when they're overheating.
