Attack of the ticks!
Tick season is coming!! Are you ready?? There are several common tick transmitted diseases in northern Wisconsin including Lyme, Anaplasmosis and Ehrlichiosis. These diseases can cause serious illness and even be deadly to our four legged friends. Using monthly tick prevention products like Vectra 3-D or Frontline along with daily tick checks are the best way to prevent transmission of these diseases in our pets. It can take several months after transmission before symptoms develop. Once symptoms do develop they often come on very quickly (less than 24 hours). If your pet displays lethargy, limping, or lack of appetite contact your veterinarian as these are common signs of tick transmitted diseases. Early treatment can help to prevent fatal complications so don’t delay in calling your veterinarian! Dr. Sarah Myers, Willow Animal Hospital (photo courtesy of: http://becuo.com)

Is your pet up to date on Rabies?
Is your pet up to date on Rabies? The rabies vaccination is legally required for all dogs 5 months of age or older in Wisconsin, and is highly recommended for all cats. Not only does it offer protection to your pet, but also helps to legally (and financially) protect you should an unpredictable bite incident occur. If your pet is not up-to-date, we strongly recommend you schedule a wellness exam with proper vaccination today!
