Guest Speaker:

  • Dr. Robert Loose, from Inspirada Animal Hospital, a great friend to us here at the Pet Club, spoke to us today about Pet Emergencies and how to deal with them. Just a few examples;
    • To notice changes in, or problems with our pets earlier, before it becomes an emergency. Acting strangely, staring into space, or just looking out of it, might be a reason to come in.
    • Neosporin works on a small abrasion or insect bite, it is not harmful if the pet should ingest it, be sure not to bandage too tightly.
    • Flour or cornstarch will stop the bleeding on a nail trim.  
    • Sago palms are poisonous to dogs and Lilies are poisonous to cats.
    • A way to transport your pet with serious injuries is by rolling them onto a beach towel and carrying the towel by the corners, to minimize any further injuries.
