Springtime News & Reminders 
Reminder for Dog Owners: Spring is here, and with it comes warm weather and mosquitoes.  If you haven't had your dog heartworm tested this year, now is the time.  With the new Snap 4Dx test, we are also checking your dog for tick-borne diseases as well.  Call now to schedule an appointment.
        Also available now--Have you always wondered what the ancestry is of your mixed-breed dog?  We now have the Mars Wisdom Panel available, a state-of-art DNA blood test that can determine what breeds contributed to your dog's appearance and personality.  A simple blood test is all it takes--call us for details.
Finally--Are you tired of messing with topical flea medications?  We now carry Comfortis, a safe, once-a-month chewable flea control pill for dogs.  Those clients who have tried it love it.  Ask us if Comfortis is right for your dog.  (Sorry, Comfortis is not available for cats at this time).

New for Cat Owners:  Based on recent research, we are now recommending heartworm preventative medication for cats as well as dogs.  Although heartworm is less common in cats, it can be more deadly, and serious respiratory problems can be caused by heartworm larvae even if they don't make it into the cat's heart. Unlike with dogs, a blood test is not necessary for your cat; however, we do need to have seen your cat within the last 12 months to prescribe preventative medicine.  Preventative medication is available in a monthly chewable tablet, or in a topical preparation that also controls fleas and ear mites.  For more information on heartworm disease in cats, see Heartworms in Cats and Know Heartworms, or call us at 419-562-0027.
