Please call for an appointment; we are currently booking 2-4 weeks in advance. Depending on the severity of the issue your pet is experiencing, we may be able to offer drop-off appointments for emergencies. Doctors are on call as needed. We provide general medicine and surgery, and dental procedures. Common things we encounter are dermatology issues, allergic skin disease, ear infections, gastrointestinal problems, and routine surgical and dental issues. We are not affiliated with any specific specialty practices, and we can help to secure the best match between you, your pet, and a veterinary specialist. Specialty referrals include internal medicine, ophthalmology, dermatology, veterinary dentistry, behavior, cardiology, cancer therapy, and a host of others. For imaging such as X-Ray, Ultrasound, MRI or CT Scans, we utilize in-house equipment as well as traveling specialists to help aid in diagnostics. When specialists are necessary, our goal is to get your pet the best and most appropriate treatment... someone who does excellent work with whom you can relate well.

Male cats are at higher risk for urinary blockages, which can prevent them from urinating at all. Warning signs include straining in the litter box, frequent trips with little or no urine, crying out, licking the ge***al area, or having accidents outside the box. A blocked urinary tract is a medical emergency that requires immediate care.
🚨 If you notice any of these signs, call (858) 459-1516 right away.

Did you know that a dog's nose is an incredible detective tool? šŸ¶šŸ‘ƒ With up to 300 million scent receptors, dogs can pick up on changes in our health and other pets in the house before we even realize something's off. If your furry friend is acting differently or seems out of sorts, it might be their way of alerting you to underlying issues.

The inner ear helps control coordination, posture, and head position, allowing cats to land on their feet and move gracefully. When this system is disrupted, cats may appear unsteady, tilt their head, walk in circles, or struggle to jump. Balance problems can signal ear infections, neurological conditions, injury, or toxin exposure and should never be ignored.
āš ļø If your cat seems off balance or disoriented, call (858) 459-1516 right away.

Dogs are incredible creatures, and their instinct to hide pain is a testament to their survival instincts. In the wild, showing vulnerability can make them prey. Limping, slowing down on walks, trouble jumping, changes in appetite, or increased irritability can all be quiet signals that something isn’t right. Even small behavior changes may indicate injury, arthritis, or illness. Early evaluation can make a big difference in your dog’s comfort and recovery.

The open-mouth sniffing face is caused by something called the ā€œflehmen reaction,ā€ and it’s perfectly normal. When your feline friend takes a sniff and leaves its mouth open for a few seconds, it’s actually drawing air into the mouth and up into Jacobson’s organ. This action helps the organ to process the scent more deeply than your cat’s nose can and sends signals to your cat’s brain. Usually, cats will have the flehmen reaction when sniffing urine or f***s from another cat, since these substances contain pheromones. Do your cats do this?

As we dive deeper into our series on toxic holiday ingredients for pets, let’s shine a light on macadamia nuts. These crunchy treats may be delightful for humans, but they can cause serious issues for dogs. Symptoms like weakness, tremors, and even hyperthermia can occur if a pet ingests these nuts. Keep your furry friends safe by steering clear of foods that contain macadamia nuts this holiday season! Always check ingredients before sharing festive goodies with your pets to ensure they remain happy and healthy during the celebrations. Your vigilance can make all the difference!

As we continue our series on toxic holiday ingredients for pets, let’s talk about raisins, grapes, and currants. These seemingly harmless treats can be extremely dangerous for your furry friends. Even small amounts can lead to serious health issues, including kidney failure. Remember to keep these fruits out of reach during your celebrations and opt for pet-safe snacks instead.
