THE PREMIER RESOURCE FOR PET HEALTH INFORMATION

	

 



	





AMC’s 24/7 emergency room has seen a spike in cases of dogs becoming sick after ingesting air-activated disposable hand warmers. These pouches contain elemental iron, which can be toxic to pets (and people) if ingested.

If your dog swallows one of the pouches intact, it can also cause an intestinal blockage and require surgery to remove. Always keep these items away from pets and throw them away in a pet-proof trash can.

If your pet ingests a hand (or foot) warmer, call ASPCA’s Animal Poison Control Center at 1-888-426-4435 (fee applies), Pet Poison Helpline at 1-855-764-7661 (fee applies), or bring your pet to your local veterinary ER.

The foundation of good dental health in dogs and cats is a comprehensive oral health assessment and treatment plan, also known as a COHAT. For many pet owners, a COHAT is a mystery since the procedure is performed under anesthesia and out of the public eye. To get a glimpse into what happens when your favorite fur person visits a veterinary dentist, check out our blog at the link below.

Meet Leo!


 






Everyone, meet Leo! He’s a 3-year-old Shichon rescued from one of the largest known puppy mills in Kansas when he was just six months old by a wonderful woman out of Florida who has dedicated her life to animal rescue (TrueFaithfulPetRescueMission).

Leo's owner writes, "When he came to me, he was soaked in dried urine, his back legs could barely walk, and he had no idea what even a coffee table was. He thought it was something to eat. But this little guy was so happy not to be stuffed in a cage with other dogs 24 hours a day that he hopped like a reindeer until his legs became strong. He has made friends with every dog in the city and is now an avid fan of streaming TV. He watches it religiously and really pays attention. He’s come so far. I can’t imagine him stuck in a cage 24/7. Thank you to all the rescue groups out there."
