🐾⚕👩🏻⚕️🩹 Dechra US 👩⚕️ There are many different levels of fear, anxiety, and stress that your pet may experience at the veterinary clinic. Some pets may show more signs than others, and with each new sign, the animal is pushed into a different level. 📞 The Fear Free Initiative has been extremely helpful in educating veterinary professionals as well as pet owners on the different levels of fear, anxiety, and stress. Fear Free uses a scale where the animal can have high levels (Levels 4-5) of fear, stress, and anxiety as well as lower levels (Levels 0-1). 🐕 In dogs, higher levels of stress can include aggression, ears back and tail tucked between their legs, actively trying to escape, excessive panting, trembling, increased respiratory rate, and immobility. 🐈 When cats are experiencing a high level of stress, they can exhibit aggression, hissing, actively trying to escape, ears back, tail tight or tucked, and immobility. #FearFree #PetAnxiety #VeterinaryCare #PetWellness #AnimalBehavior #StressLevels #PetHealthcare

#DYK July is National Pet Hydration Awareness Month. This is because dehydration is one of the most common emergency cases veterinarians see during the hot months of summer. Dogs' and cats' bodies are made up of roughly 70 percent water, and this water is vital for all bodily processes. From moisturizing the air in their lungs and regulating body temperature to supporting nervous system function and transporting nutrients and oxygen in the bloodstream to cells, water performs countless functions for pets' bodies. Keeping your pet's bowl filled with cool, clean water is a crucial step in warding off this problem, but sometimes it isn't enough. In these instances, prompt veterinary care is essential We hope you never need an emergency vet, but if you do, Boundary Bay Veterinary Specialty Hospital is open 24/7, walk-ins welcome. We are VECCS Level 1 certified and capable of handling even the most critical emergencies and trauma, with specialists on staff and on call to handle even the most life-threatening emergencies and trauma.
