 Protect
Your Pet’s Heart
Did you know that a pet on Heartworm preventative medication
can still get Heartworm disease? According to veterinary
cardiologist Dr. Laura DeLellis, if you are like most people
and forget to give your pet a dose of preventative medication
one month, your pet could be at risk for catching this serious
and potentially fatal condition. For more info on how to
protect your pet, click

 Keeping
Cool During the Dog Days of Summer
Dogs and cats can suffer from the same problems that people
do during the hot days of summer. Overheating, dehydration
and heat exhaustion can happen very quickly. Heat stroke
is more serious and one of the most common emergencies in
the summer months. Without proper precautions, heat stroke
can be fatal. Ways to avoid a trip to the ER are quite simple
if you plan ahead and think about the things you need and/or
should avoid on a hot summer day. Learn

Blind Penguins Focus on Life Again
Swimming into walls and having trouble catching fish were
just two of the main indicators that two Detroit Zoo rockhoppers
and a macaroni penguin’s cataracts were affecting
their physical and social well-being. Caused by old age
– two were more than 20 years old and the other over
30 - the penguins were transported to Michigan Veterinary
Specialists where Drs. Dan Lorimer and Ray Morreale performed
successful cataract surgery.Detroit
