Arthritis takes a toll on your pet's joints, making walking, jumping and other everyday activities much more difficult. Learning about arthritis symptoms and treatments can help you ensure that you're doing everything possible to ease your pet's pain. **What Is Arthritis?Osteoarthritis happens when the protective cartilage at the ends of the bones in a joint wears away. The cartilage cushions the bones and makes it easy for them to slide when a joint moves. With little or no cartilage to protect them, bones grind together painfully. Pets with arthritis often become less active due to joint pain and stiffness. According to the American Kennel Club (AKC), arthritis most often affects the hips, lower back, elbows, wrists, and knees in dogs. ASPCA Pet Health Insurance notes that cats are more likely to develop arthritis in the back, knees, elbows, jawbone and hips. Osteoarthritis can be caused by: <ul><li>Aging </li><li>Hip or Elbow Dysplasia </li><li>Joint Dislocations</li><li>Injuries - Joint Infections </li><li> Previous Surgery on a Joint</li><li>Activities That Stress the Joints </li><li>Cushing's Disease </li><li>Addison's Disease </li><li>Diabetes </li><li>Increased Pressure on the Joints Due to Obesity Some breeds are more likely to develop arthritis or conditions that increase the risk of arthritis than others. </li></ul>According to ASPCA Pet Insurance, arthritis often occurs in large breeds, like German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Great Danes, and Doberman Pinschers. International Cat Care reports that Abyssinian and Devon Rex cats are prone to kneecap dislocations, while hip dysplasia is a problem in Persians, Maine Coon and Siamese cats. <h3>How Can I Tell if My Pet Has Arthritis?</h3>Pets can have arthritis for some time before their families realize that something is wrong. Signs that could mean that your pet is suffering from joint pain and stiffness include: - **Slowing Down.** Your dog or cat may not be quite as active as usual and uninterested in going for walks, running or playing games. <h4>Trouble with Steps.</h4>Does your pet rarely go upstairs anymore? Navigating steps can be particularly difficult with arthritic joints. <h4>Difficulty Jumping</h4>Pets with arthritis may avoid jumping or may be unsuccessful when they try to jump on elevated surfaces and objects.<h4>Limping</h4>A sudden limp is an obvious sign that something isn't quite right with your pet. You may notice that the limp seems worse after your pet has been resting for a while. <h4>Stiff Movements</h4>Inflammation and swelling in your pet's joints cause stiffness. Your pet's movements may be jerky and less smooth than normal. <h4>Irritability</h4>Pain can affect your pet's mood, making your normally laid-back cat or dog grouchy and impatient. If your pet's mood or personality has changed, a painful condition like arthritis could be to blame. <h4>Housetraining Accidents</h4>Accidents may be more likely to happen if your pet has arthritis. Your cat may not be able to reach the litter box in time or might find it difficult to step over the rim. Poor mobility may mean it takes longer for your dog to travel outside, which can result in accidents. <h4>How Is Arthritis Treated?</h4>Although cartilage can't be regrown once it wears away, your pet's veterinarian can offer a few treatments and suggestions that may help reduce pain and stiffness, including: <ul><li>Medication: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and other medications relieve pain and stiffness and can help your pet move more easily.</li><li>Disinterest in Grooming: Your normally well-groomed cat may begin to look disheveled if arthritis makes grooming difficult.</li><li> Weight Loss: Losing weight reduces pressure on your pet's joints and may help minimize damage to the joints. </li><li>Change in Diet: Your pet's veterinarian might recommend switching to a food that contains eicosapentaenoic acid. This type of Omega-3 fatty acid improves symptoms, reduces joint inflammation, and may protect the cartilage, according to the AKC. </li><li>Exercise: Although your pet may be reluctant to move, a little exercise can actually reduce pain and stiffness. Vigorous activity isn't a good idea, but short walks and other activities can be very helpful for pets with arthritis. </li><li>Supplements: Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, the same supplements people use, to ease arthritis pain may also be helpful for pets. Be sure to ask your pet's veterinarian about the proper dosage of any supplements.</li></ul>Are you concerned that your pet may have arthritis?

<h3>What Is The Rattlesnake Vaccine? </h3>The rattlesnake vaccine is the best way to ensure your dog has the most excellent possible chance of recovering from a future rattlesnake bite. The vaccine stimulates a dog’s immune system to allow more antibodies to be created. These antibodies help fight against the venom in a snake bite, should the dog be bitten. <h3>Why Should I Vaccinate?</h3>Texas has a vast population of rattlesnakes, and they can live in various habitats, including forests, grasslands, swamps, and deserts. Their prominence means dogs can encounter rattlesnakes anywhere: camping, hiking, walking, or even in your backyard. Rattlesnake bites are very painful, and the toxins can permanently injure or even kill a dog, so even with antivenom treatments after the fact, there is no guarantee your dog will be the same. In addition, antivenom treatments to save a dog that has been bitten are expensive and could cost hundreds to thousands of dollars. A dog that has been bitten may also require extensive care, like hospitalization and possibly even surgery, which are very costly. The rattlesnake vaccine helps to lessen the impact of a snake bite, eliminate the need for antivenom, and reduce medical treatment costs significantly. Even with the rattlesnake vaccine’s immune boost, it is essential to note that you should still bring your dog to the vet if your dog is bitten by a rattlesnake. A veterinarian can decide whether additional treatment is needed based on your pet’s needs. <h3>Where Can I Get The Vaccine?</h3>At NDS Animal Hospital, we offer rattlesnake vaccines for dogs at an affordable cost so you can protect your pet and not break the bank. To schedule an appointment to get the rattlesnake vaccine, visit or call (726) 888-9024. To learn more information about the vaccine see https://redrockbiologics.com/dogs

Is Your Pet Experiencing Anxiety? 

Dog smiles are some of the best smiles in the world, but their bad breath tends to be…less desirable. Much like us, bad breath in pets can be a sign of excessive bacteria in the mouth, and gone unchecked can lead to dental disease or tooth decay. It is recommended that a dog or cat’s first veterinary dental cleaning be scheduled at about a year of age to keep their teeth and gums healthy and clean. What is a COHAT, and how is it different from a dental cleaning? There are generally two types of dental procedures for pets: a dental cleaning and a COHAT. Dental cleanings usually consist of the removal of plaque and tartar from the patient’s teeth, similar to what a human dentist would do in an annual visit, while a COHAT is much more extensive. COHAT stands for Comprehensive Oral Health Assessment and Treatment, and it involves several diagnostic procedures like full-mouth X-rays and probing of the teeth to make sure nothing is overlooked and provide a better understanding of the patient’s oral health. Early signs of dental disease that could be diagnosed using COHAT technology sometimes go unnoticed in regular dental cleanings. Dental cleanings typically address issues on the surface, while a COHAT can address issues above the gum line before they become visible. Talk with your veterinarian about the best procedure for you and your pet. At NDS Animal Hospital, we offer solely COHAT services for dog and cat patients to ensure the best quality care for your furry friends. What happens in a COHAT? COHAT procedures typically begin with a preliminary examination of the mouth and a complete blood panel while the patient is awake, which ensures the patient’s organ function makes them a good candidate for anesthesia. Once they are sedated and vitals are being monitored, the patient receives full mouth dental radiographs to identify problematic or irritated areas of the mouth that require special attention. The mouth is rinsed with an oral antiseptic that kills bacteria, and plaque and tartar are cleaned off similar to a dental cleaning. Special tools are used to remove debris and plaque from the gingiva, or the gumline. Finally, the teeth are polished, antiplaque sealant is administered, and the mouth is rinsed to remove any debris. If the patient requires any further care, such as root canal therapy or tooth removal, then that procedure will also be performed. Recovery time for a COHAT depends on many different factors, like the overall health of the pet and whether or not any teeth were pulled, but the initial healing should still be about 7-14 days, at which point solid foods can be reintroduced. Should I still brush my pet’s teeth after a COHAT? Yes! It is incredibly important to brush your pet's teeth once a day to prevent harmful bacteria from multiplying and causing plaque buildup. A dental cleaning or COHAT is never a long-term solution and should be used as a supplement to your regular tooth-brushing routine. Many pets, especially cats, will not allow their teeth to be brushed, and if that is the case for you, don’t worry! There are many options to reduce plaque available for purchase, such as dental chews or specialized kibble; talk with your veterinarian to find the best option for you, or visit <a target="_blank" rel="" href="https://vohc.org/accepted-products/">this website</a>.

Dog and Cat Dental Hygiene

Bringing a new puppy home is such an exciting time, and there are sure to be many wonderful memories ahead. To ensure your new puppy lives a long and healthy life with you, bring them to the vet clinic for their puppy wellness exams. Why should I bring my puppy for an exam? Whether your new furry friend came from a breeder or a shelter, it is critical that they be examined by a veterinarian from the start to make sure they are healthy and happy. In the first exam, Puppy will get started on routine vaccinations and prevention they will need throughout their lives to protect them from preventable diseases. The first exam will also establish a baseline of information about the puppy’s health and growth patterns that over time can alert the veterinarian if anything is wrong so it can be diagnosed quicker and treated faster, with minimal discomfort to your pup. What happens in a puppy exam? In Puppy’s first exam, the veterinarian will<ul><li>Examine the puppy from head to tail, feeling for strong body and muscles</li><li>Weigh the puppy to see how much to feed it and monitor how much it grows</li><li>Observe and record vital signs (heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature)</li><li>Examine the skin, fur, eyes, nose, and mouth for abnormalities</li><li>Examine a fecal sample (bring one with you, if possible) for the presence of worms that would necessitate a dewormer medication</li></ul> All of these observations will be recorded in your puppy’s file where the veterinarian can keep track of their health as they grow. If something suddenly changes, that could alert the veterinarian of a possible illness, so it is very important to regularly bring Puppy in for check ups to keep up that record. The first exam is also when the veterinarian can answer all the questions you might have about how much to feed Puppy, any concerns you have about Puppy’s health, proper exercise, spaying or neutering, microchipping, and more. Don’t be afraid to ask! What vaccinations does my puppy need? Think of a vaccine as a shield that prevents diseases from infecting your puppy. Even though some vaccines are not required by law, it is always a good idea to discuss with your veterinarian which additional vaccines your puppy should receive, on top of the required ones. Remember, each vaccine protects against a potentially dangerous and deadly disease, so it’s worth the investment. Here is a list of the vaccines Puppy will likely receive throughout their first year of life, though the specifics may vary: 6-8 weeks: DAPP (Distemper, Adenovirus, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus), and Bordetella vaccines10-12 weeks: DAPP13-15 weeks: DAPP and Rabies vaccines16-18 months: DAPP The Rabies vaccination is required by law in most US states, including Texas, while the Bortetella and DHPP vaccines are not legal requirements, but are generally required before a dog can enter a boarding facility. What is prevention? In the veterinary world, prevention refers to preventative medications that ensure your dog does not get fleas, ticks, or heartworm disease. Most prevention can be given to puppies eight weeks or older when they reach a certain weight (which can vary based on the brand of prevention you use.) Talk to your veterinarian about the right prevention for you and your pup.

Puppy Exams - What to Expect

Why should I bring my pet to the vet every year? It is strongly recommended by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) that pets be brought to their healthcare provider at least once a year. Why, you ask? Annual wellness exams check patients for early signs of illness and allow for continued access to prescription medications such as flea and tick prevention or other prescribed medications to aid older patients, such as Librela or Rejensa. In addition, some vaccinations a veterinarian can provide may be required for boarding a pet or taking them out of the country. Pet owners often don’t bring their pets in simply because the pet “looks healthy”, however, there is always a chance an illness lies beneath what is visible, and a veterinarian could help to pinpoint the issue before symptoms begin. This is especially important for senior pets, who have higher risk factors simply because of their age, and more frequent veterinary appointments for regular checkups can be very beneficial to the overall health of the animal. What does a wellness exam do? In a wellness exam, a veterinarian will assess all aspects of the pet patient, from the eyes and ears to the feet and tail. The animal’s heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and temperature will also be taken to look for abnormalities or early signs of illness. The vet will check inside the ears to look for signs of infection or swelling, in the eyes for signs of vision loss or cataracts, and palpate the abdomen for signs of intestinal discomfort or blockages. These diagnostic measures will help your pet to remain happy, healthy, and pain-free as they enjoy their lives with their owners. Should anything appear abnormal, the veterinarian will provide a treatment plan moving forward to correct the issue or ease any pain a pet might be experiencing. At certain points in a pet’s life, the veterinarian may also recommend some form of a health screening, such as bloodwork, a urinalysis, or a fecal test, which may be administered during a routine annual exam. Why should my pet have routine health screenings? Veterinarians may recommend doing additional testing besides what an average wellness check provides, such as bloodwork, a urinalysis, or a fecal test, among others. These tests can be crucial to finding underlying issues that aren’t visible on the surface, like discrepancies in kidney, liver, and heart function. Taking these tests over regular intervals allows veterinarians to monitor a pet’s organ function over time and notice subtle changes from year to year that could signal a deeper issue arising. If an abnormality is found through these screenings, swift action can be taken to prevent the progression of an illness, or to minimize any pain. Tests such as the Heartworm test and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus/Feline Leukemia Virus test (FIV/FeLV) are instrumental in ensuring pets are free of viral infections or parasites that could shorten their lifespans and lower the quality of life they experience. All in all, annual wellness examinations check for early signs of illness and allow the continuation of preventative care through vaccines and medications, which are critical components of keeping your pet happy, healthy, and living their best life with you.

The Importance of Annual Exams

In order to maintain the health and safety of citizens and their pets, there are several regulations in place that make it a bit difficult to travel with a furry friend. But don’t worry! We’ll walk you through the process.Can I take my pet out of the country? Pets are subject to certain travel requirements, but not all animals are considered pets. The following animals qualify as pets:<ul><li>Dogs</li><li>Cats</li><li>Ferrets</li><li>Rabbits</li><li>Rodents</li><li>Hedgehogs/Tenrecs</li><li>Reptiles</li><li>Amphibians</li><li>Select Species Of Birds</li></ul>If your animal is not on this list, please visit <a target="_blank" rel="" href="https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel">this website</a> for more information. At NDS Animal Hospital, we offer services solely for traveling with dogs and catsWhat forms do I need? When bringing a pet out of the US, you need to make an appointment with a USDA-accredited veterinarian to obtain the needed paperwork, vaccinations, and medical records. Forms vary from country to country, but most places will require a health certificate, which shows the relative health of the pet and is signed by a veterinarian who can verify this information. This is mainly to ensure the pet is healthy and fit to travel, and it does not have any diseases that could be transmitted to animals or humans at your new destination. The vet may administer vaccinations in order to create the health certificate, based on where you will travel The rabies vaccination is the most widely required vaccine, but some countries may also require the parvovirus vaccine, canine influenza, feline leukemia, or the feline immunodeficiency virus vaccine, if they apply. Always be sure to check for any additional guidelines based on your destination. Things to keep in mind:<ol><li>Make sure you get any pet prescriptions refilled before you leave, so you don’t run out when you might not have access to a pharmacy.</li><li>If you are flying, be sure you contact the airline and ask what their rules and regulations are regarding pet travel, and if they require any additional medical records besides a health certificate.</li><li>Don’t forget to bring any flea/tick medication your pet may need, and make sure any form of identification, such as a collar or ID tag, is up to date and contains the correct information. If your pet is microchipped, ensure the information is also up to date, and if it is not microchipped, consider microchipping in case your pet gets lost. (Many countries now require microchipping, so double-check your destination’s guidelines before you travel.)</li><li>Your pet will either travel in-cabin with you, as accompanied baggage, or as cargo. Make sure you are familiar with your airline’s policies on how pets can travel, as some have extra fees based accordingly.</li><li>Bring a copy of your pet’s medical records along with their health certificate.</li><li>Make sure you give your veterinarian adequate time to complete the health certificate and acquire the needed medical records. It can take anywhere from 1-3 months to process the records, so don’t wait!</li></ol> Sources:&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="" href="https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel/us-to-another-country-export">https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel/us-to-another-country-export</a><a target="_blank" rel="" href="https://www.aaha.org/resources/the-ultimate-guide-to-traveling-safely-with-your-pet/">https://www.aaha.org/resources/the-ultimate-guide-to-traveling-safely-with-your-pet/</a><a target="_blank" rel="" href="https://www.avma.org/resources-tools/pet-owners/petcare/traveling-your-pet-faq">https://www.avma.org/resources-tools/pet-owners/petcare/traveling-your-pet-faq</a><a target="_blank" rel="" href="https://www.state.gov/transition-center/pets-and-international-travel">https://www.state.gov/transition-center/pets-and-international-travel</a><a target="_blank" rel="" href="https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel/us-to-another-country-export/pet-travel-guidance-pets-traveling-another-country-united">https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel/us-to-another-country-export/pet-travel-guidance-pets-traveling-another-country-united</a>
