Pyometra can happen to female cats or dogs at any age but is most common in un-spayed fur-gals who have never had a litter. Usually occurring a few weeks after a heat cycle, hormones cause the lining of the uterus to thicken and form cysts, which sets up a breeding ground for infection. Read More

• #dogs,  #bond,  #love,  #family

Human history with dogs began at least 10,000 years ago. The relationship benefitted both species. Early humans found that dogs served as alarm systems, helped track and catch prey, could keep them warm, and could guard and entertain human children. The tradeoff is that people provide food and shelter for their canine companions. However, scientists have now found that the bond goes much deeper than these obvious mutual benefits. Read More

Cats are known to be finicky creatures so you might not feel too alarmed when your cat suddenly won't eat. Since they tend to hide illness, however, this is a symptom that warrants your attention. The problem may be as simple as a change in the formulation of his food, or it could be a sign of a serious illness. Read More

The gallbladder is a small organ that works closely with the liver as the collector of the bile being filtered from the liver. Bile is sent through a duct system and deposited into the gallbladder, which empties into the intestine. The liver and the gallbladder work together. If one is diseased, the other will quickly follow. Read More

Adult fleas often spend more time in your home than on your pet, and our cozy, heated houses suit them just fine when it's too cool to live outdoors. Winter is the best time to attack fleas because of the lower humidity levels slow their development. The best practice is to keep your pets on flea and tick prevention treatments year-round. Call us to talk about prevention options at our Tulsa location at (918)-492-2674 or our Broken Arrow location at (918)-355-5662. Read More
