We have seen a rise in over the counter (OTC) flea product reactions. A number of pet owners have called about their pet shaking after the OTC products or developing a skin rash.
If your pet is exhibiting an issue, please wash off the product with warm water and contact us at 603-529-4999 (or your regular vet if you are not a client) to discuss the case further. After hours please contact the local vet ER (603-227-1199).
The American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP) has published new guidelines for senior cats. Over the next few weeks, Dr. Barlow and myself will review these and incorporate them into the practice.

We are now offering Doggy Daycare. As many of you know, we have a large fenced in area behind the Animal Hospital. That will be the doggy daycare area.
If you want to know more, please call the Hospital at 603-529-4999.
I hope to have a webcam working out there shortly.
We now have our Cat Playroom Webcam online and streaming. Go to http://www.weareanimalhospital.com/boarding.htm and click Cat Boarding Webcam. It will ask you to download an ActiveX control from AXIS. This control allows you to view the webcam.
This ActiveX control download does require Administrator privileges and we have found some client's machines at work won't download due to security settings set up by their company. We have not had a problem with client's machines at their house.
As many of you know, I do a ton of exotic pets.
I am now very happy to announce that I completed my Avian Specialty work and passed the examination. So in addition to being a Canine/Feline Specialist, I can now state that I am an Avian Specialist.

As most of you know, we do a fair amount of exotic pets here at the hospital. It's a niche group of animals that's fun and interesting to work with.
A new client of ours owns a reptile store in Pinardville and my son and I had the occasion to visit him last week. It's Dave's Dragons (679 Mast Road, Manchester, NH 03102. 606-2120). He has a varied assortment of reptiles, frogs and pocket pet mammals along with a good assortment of quality supplies.
So if you are in the market for a reptile or supplies, check him out. He is close by, just 15.8 miles south of the hospital.
