PLEASE CALL US (281-298-6000) FOR MORE INFORAMTION ABOUT THE LYME DISEASE VACCINE.
Lyme Disease in Dogs
Lyme disease is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and is transmitted by the deer tick (often referred to as the black-legged tick). Signs of Lyme disease in dogs are difficult to detect, and warning signs may not appear until several months after infection. Signs may come and go and can mimic other conditions. Cases vary from mild to severe. In severe cases of Lyme disease, kidney failure can occur.
Most common signs of Lyme disease:
Recurrent arthritis/lameness that lasts 3–4 days, sometimes accompanied by loss of appetite and depression
Reluctance to move or a stiff, painful gait
Swollen joints that are warm to the touch
Pain in the legs or throughout the body
Fever, fatigue and swollen lymph nodes

Valentine's Day Doggy Wedding
What better way to celebrate the day of love and happiness? Two of our regulars got "married" in a little ceremony here last Friday. It was a fun party for all the Doggy Day Camp attendees, although, truth be told, most of the guests showed up for the refreshments and reception.

Watch the Flowers!
Valentines Day is right around the corner, watch your pets around these flowers.....they can be harmful:
Different flowers in the lily family are extremeley poisonous to pets. Cats are more common lily poisoning victims than dogs, but they are toxic to both species. They are also very popular bouquet items. Lilies, Tiger Lilies, Easter Lilies, Tulips, and Calla Lilies are just some of the toxic plants found in the lily plant family.
Some other bouquet favorites that are likely to make your pet sick include:
-Baby's Breath
-Bird of Paradise
-Carnations
-Daffodils
-Dahlias
-Daisies
-Irises
-Peonies
Make sure to keep your flowers away from your pets and have a Yappy Valentines!
