Collapsing Trachea is really a disease of the cartilage which comprise the rings of the trachea, the tube which carries the air that your pet breathes down the throat and towards your pet’s lungs. Over time, dogs with a collapsing trachea will have these C-Shaped rings of cartilage weaken, causing a flattening of the trachea.

If you notice any abnormalities in your dog’s eye that you believe might be initial stages of glaucoma you should bring him in immediately. During your dog’s Physical Examination, your veterinarian will test the intraocular pressure inside of your dog’s eye. Variations in pressure between both eyes as well as absolute increases in pressure can reliably predict if Glaucoma is present.

Hip Dysplasia is a common condition affecting dogs. The disease affects your dog’s ability to run, play, and lead an active life. If you suspect your pet has Hip Dysplasia, an appointment with a member of our veterinary team is the first step towards getting your pet some relief and hopefully back to his energetic, playful ways.

Cats are not just smaller versions of dogs. In fact, cats are very particular creatures, especially when it comes to their Litter Box. Tidiness, placement, and even the size of their litter box can all play a factor in deterring them away from using their “royal chamber”. If you notice that your cat is not utilizing the litter box, it may be an indication of what he does not like about his toilet and in some cases even a medical warning.

Heartworms in dogs can be treated by your Veterinarian if found in time, but the treatment can be dangerous. Treatment consists of two to three injections of Immiticide (an arsenic-based medication) spaced out over several months.
