A Pet-Friendly Year in Review: True Care’s Top 5 Pet Blogs of 2017
What did 2017 mean for you? For us, many things come to mind. First, just how grateful we are to have had the opportunity to care for so many of our furry patients, and to provide the preventive wellness services to keep them healthy. From our new puppy and kitten patients to our sweet, old senior friends, we are proud to be a partner in your pet’s health and happiness.
Focused on giving pet owners information about a wide range of topics that pertain to your four-legged friends, the intent of our pet blogs is to educate and inform (and sometimes entertain!). Helping pet owners to better understand how to give their pets the very best life possible is what we aim to do.
We hope you have enjoyed reading our blogs as much as we have enjoyed writing them! Without further ado, here are our top 5 pet blogs of 2017!
A Serious Threat: Leptospirosis in Dogs
If we told you that there was a disease that could cause kidney and liver failure in your family dog, and that could be found anywhere in the environment that wildlife frequented, wouldn’t you want to know more? Now what if we told you that it could also affect your human family?
Unfortunately, this disease is not a made-up plot in a dystopian narrative. It is a relatively common disease known as Leptopsirosis, or ‘lepto’.
Thankfully, leptospirosis in dogs is able to be prevented in many situations through vaccination. True Care Veterinary Hospital wants its pet owners to be aware of this disease and the importance of prevention.
