As spring turns to summer, pets often face increased ear and skin issues. Otitis externa, the most common ear problem, causes symptoms like head shaking and ear scratching due to allergies or foreign bodies like grass seeds. Our vets diagnose and treat this condition with tailored plans involving medications and cleaning solutions. Spring and summer also bring skin irritations, leading to itching, lumps, or sores from allergies, infections, or insect bites. Thorough evaluations and sometimes further testing guide our treatment, aiming to ease discomfort and restore your pet's comfort.

Spring is about to be upon us, and summer is just around the corner. With this beautiful weather comes an increase in ear and skin problems.The most common ear problem we encounter in pets is otitis externa, which is inflammation and/or infection of the outer ear. This can present with head shaking, scratching at ears, smell from the ears, visible discharge at the canal opening or holding the ears abnormally.

We are so excited to offer our pet owners our new service with the opening of our "Visitation Room". We have created a seperate space where pet owners can visit their pets in hospital/ wait for procedures to be performed or even wait with their pets while sedation or premed takes effect, have the surgery/ procedures performed and then wait with their pets during the final stages of recovery before being discharged. This can benefit those pet owners whose fur-babies are super stressed staying at the vet.
