FOR THE SAFETY OF YOUR PET
A lost pet is a heartbreak for a family. After walking through
the neighborhood, calling your pet's name over and over, panic begins to set in. And if your pet is taken to a shelter, how can you be sure you will ever find
him. Over the last several years, microchips implanted in pets have been
instrumental in reuniting lost pets and their families. Without this service,
hundreds of pets would still be without their families. ALL of the shelters in
our area have scanners available and use them on all pets brought to them.
Several pets found in our area have been brought to us, scanned and reunited
with their families. Without the microchip, they could have been lost for
days, or never reunited. This
simple procedure can save you and your pet hours of separation. Call us for
details and an appointment. Is your pet wearing an ID tag or rabies tag? We have order forms for ID tags.
Also, update your pet's rabies
vaccination today and get a new tag for valuable identification for your pet. Rabies is still a dangerous
problem in our area, both for pets and your family.
FOR THE LIFE OF YOUR PET
W
inter
is here, brrrrrr!!!. With cold and icy weather just around the corner,
here are some suggestions for keeping your pets healthy and safe.
-
ANTIFREEZE IS A KILLER! Keep it out of reach of your pets. Clean up any
spills. Even just a taste can be fatal to your pet. If you think your pet
has ingested antifreeze, call us immediately. Minutes can make a difference.
- Protect
your pet from the elements. Provide shelter from the cold, snow and wind.
Pets can get frostbite too.
- Cats
like to get under the hood of your car and onto the engine for warmth. Bang
on the hood before starting your car to prevent injury to your cat.
- Don’t
let your pets wander unattended. They can get lost or injured and then die
of exposure.
- Make
sure your pets have plenty of food and fresh water.
Product Info
Ticks never go away. . . at least it seems that way. Lyme ticks
are with us year round. We don't see them as much if there is very cold weather,
or a covering of snow, but if there is a thaw, they're out and hungry. Help
protect your pets from Lyme disease with one of the products available at the
Billings Animal Hospital. We have collars and topical applications to help
prevent ticks from infecting your pet. And don't forget the Lyme Vaccine for
dogs. Ask our staff for guidance in choosing a product that's right for your
pet.
Is your older dog having trouble getting around lately? Does he
seem sore first thing in the morning or after exercise? Advances have been made
in medications for these problems. Some of our clients already have their dogs
on one or more of the medications and are reporting great improvement in the
quality of their pets` lives. Call us for details.
Heartworm prevention……we recommend year-round prevention. There
is now a generic form of HeartgardPlus. Same ingredients…but costs less....or
you can still get Heartgard Plus in a tasty cookie form. Call us for further
information.
