All God's Creatures Veterinary Hospital

Penelope was helping draw up vaccines for our patients' annual visits today! Vaccines are divided into two categories - core and non-core. Rabies is considered to be a core vaccines in this area for both dogs and cats, as well as being required by Georgia state law. In addition, we recommend DA2PP - sometimes called a combo or distemper/parvo vaccine - as a core vaccine for dogs and FVRCP (a vaccine against three different feline diseases) as a core vaccine for cats. We also ...carry multiple non-core vaccines, such as canine Bordetella, canine leptospirosis, and feline leukemia, which may be recommended for your pet based on their lifestyle. There is no "one size fits all" approach when it comes to vaccinating your pet, and our veterinarians can help you decide on the best plan for your pet. Since a rabies vaccine is legally required by the state of Georgia, we vaccinate a lot of dogs and cats against rabies here - can you guess how many this year? ANSWER: We have vaccinated a total of 2,996 pets against rabies this year!

Penelope is helping organize our in-house stock of prescription foods today! Prescription diets are specially formulated for various conditions, from kidney disease to food allergies. Can you guess how many different conditions can use a prescription diet as part of treatment? ANSWER: There are 18 different conditions that have specially formulated diets that may be used as part of a treatment plan. We stock several prescription foods that patients may need to be started on immediately, but if your pet's condition requires a prescription diet for long term maintenance, we now offer Purina VetDirect - your pet's prescription food shipped directly to your home! Ask our staff how to get enrolled at your next visit.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Please remember to call the hospital to check in so we know you are here to see us!

Penelope is back in the lab today to learn how to use the microscope! Our in-house microscope may be used to identify the type of bacteria causing your dog's ear infection, look for microfilaria in the blood of heartworm positive animals, or identify crystals in your cat's urine. One of the most commonly performed diagnostic tests here are fecal flotations, which allow us to find many of the most common parasites in our area and can be performed in less than 10 minutes. Can you identify the parasite(s) Penelope has found? ANSWER: On this slide, Penelope found roundworm, whipworm, and hookworm eggs, as well as coccidia oocysts. All of these can be problematic (especially in puppies) and should be treated as soon as possible.

Our hours today will be from 8am to 12pm for Independence Day! We hope you all have a safe and fun holiday! Here are some tips for keeping your pet safe this 4th of July

Penelope is helping out in our in-house pharmacy today, and there's a whole section just for flea, tick, and heartworm prevention - Penelope has a lot to learn! The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) recommends year-round flea and heartworm prevention for all cats and dogs, along with tick protection for at-risk patients. It was previously thought that these monthly preventatives were only needed during months of warmer weather, but that has proven not to be the c...ase, especially in Georgia! Fleas, ticks, and heartworms can cause serious illness or harm to your pet...and your wallet. It is far more costly to treat these problems when they arise compared to the cost of monthly prevention, and in some cases - like feline heartworm disease - there is no treatment available, so prevention is even more critical. With so many options available (can you guess how many we have at All God's Creatures?) to choose from, it can get a little overwhelming, but our veterinarians can help you pick the perfect parasite prevention plan for your pet! ANSWER: We have a total of eight flea, tick, and/or heartworm prevention products for dogs and cats in stock at All God's Creatures Veterinary Hospital - ask us which one is right for your pet at your next visit!
