๐ถ If your furry friend has been diagnosed with heartworm disease, it's important to restrict their exercise.
๐ข Physical exertion can exacerbate the damage the heartworms cause to the dog's heart and lungs. Treatment for heartworm disease is also risky, as the medication can cause life-threatening complications when the dead worms break apart. Before treatment is started, the dog's condition must be stabilized, and close monitoring is required during and after treatment.
Providing year-round heartworm prevention is an important part of your petโs health care plan. If you would like to discuss the various preventives, contact our team by calling , so we can determine what protocol would best fit you and your petโs lifestyle.
If your pet experiences stress or anxiety related to fireworks, we can help. But donโt wait! Give us a call today: 316-689-0202
This week we will open Monday, Tuesday and our half day till noon on Wednesday.

Hot Tips for Keeping Pets Cool This Summer - Village Animal Hospital Heat-related illnesses are more likely to affect your pet as temperatures rise.

๐ซ Even small amounts of alcohol can cause severe health problems in our furry friends, such as hypoglycemia, seizures, and respiratory arrest.

Dogs may use their body language to communicate aggression or discomfort. Aggressive displays can escalate quickly and can cause harm to other dogs or people. As pet owners, itโs important to recognize the signs and take action to prevent any harm.

๐ฆท Dental disease can affect your pet's quality of life too. By three years old, most cats and dogs already have some form of dental disease.
๐คข Watch out for early signs like bad breath, tartar buildup, and swollen gums. Early detection is important to prevent chronic pain and inflammation.
๐ Show your pet some love by scheduling their preventive care exam with regular dental evaluations at least once a year.
๐ฝ๏ธ๐พ Do you know how many calories your pet needs each day? Measuring their food with a cup isn't always enough. To make sure your furry friend is getting the right amount of food, calculate their daily caloric needs.
Use a dog or cat calorie calculator to determine the number of calories they require, and then measure their food accordingly.
๐ถ๐ฑ Divide that amount into two or three meals and don't forget about treats. Treats should only make up 10% of your pet's daily calorie intake, so be mindful of their snack consumption.
Need help calculating your pet's daily calories? Reach out to our team! Call 316-689-0202 to talk to your veterinarian.
It's important to recognize warning signs before your dog bites or gets into a fight. These signs can include growling, barking, raised hackles, and a stiff body posture. Keep a trained eye on your dog's body language and avoid or end interactions before things escalate.
๐๐ฌ Are you paying attention to your pet's dental health? Dental disease is a common issue that can cause chronic pain and discomfort for pets.
But since they can't tell us when they're in pain, it's up to us as pet owners to be vigilant. Look out for signs of dental disease like bad breath, yellow buildup on teeth, and swollen gums.
Annual dental evaluations as part of your pet's regular preventive care exam can help detect issues early, before they cause serious problems. A proper dental procedure can make a world of difference for your furry friend!
๐๏ธโโ๏ธ๐ถ๐ฑ Did you know that exercise is crucial for keeping your pet healthy? A healthy diet is just one piece of the puzzle. Encourage your furry friend to get up and get moving every day.
๐พ๐พ For dogs, a lengthy walk or a game of fetch is ideal. For cats, short play sessions a few times a day are best. No matter the activity, just make sure your pet is moving.

Purebred dogs and cats charm us with their distinctive looks and winning ways, but they can inherit breed-related health conditions. Check out our latest blog post to learn about the medical issues that often occur in some popular breeds.

๐๐จโโ๏ธ Your pet's health starts with their diet! Just like humans, pets need to eat a balanced and nutritious diet to stay healthy.

If you have any questions about your pet's nutritional plan, don't hesitate to give us a call at 316-689-0202.

๐พ๐ฆท Did you know that you can brush your pet's teeth every day?
It's an easy way to maintain their oral health and prevent future dental problems. Look for special pet toothpaste that's flavored like beef, chicken, fish, or peanut butter.

โโ๏ธ Hey there, pet lovers! Here's a quick tip for you: Avoid feeding your furry friends onions, garlic, and chives!
๐ซ Although you may love these herbs, they can cause red blood cell damage and lead to vomiting, weakness, nausea, and collapse in your pets. Be cautious and keep these ingredients away from your pets to prevent a health emergency!๐
๐พ๐ก๏ธ Counting calories and exercising daily are great ways to keep your pet at a healthy weight. But what if the number on the scale isn't budging? Your furry friend may have an underlying health condition that makes weight loss difficult.
๐ฅ๐ฉบ Pets with metabolic and endocrine disorders, like hypothyroidism or Cushing's disease, often struggle with weight loss. Prescription diets and management of the underlying condition can help.
Once the condition is under control, weight loss becomes much easier. Need help managing your pet's weight? Call 316-689-0202 to talk to your veterinarian.

Did you know that dental treats for dogs are a great way to improve your pupโs oral health? Here are some reasons why:
1๏ธโฃ Dental treats are made specifically to remove plaque buildup and clean your dogโs mouth.
2๏ธโฃ They often contain ingredients that freshen breath and help maintain your pet's oral hygiene.
3๏ธโฃ Dental treats come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and flavors, making it easy to find one your furry friend loves.
4๏ธโฃ They are generally much more appreciated by our dogs than traditional toothbrushes or wipes.
Make sure to choose dental treats that are appropriate for your dog's size and needs. As always, talk to your vet about what dental care routine is best for your furry friend. Happy chewing! ๐พ๐ฆท
