Ear Mites in Cats
Ear mites are a very common external parasite and are highly contagious among animals. Ear mites can irritate both the ears and skin of dogs and cats, leading to itching, scratching, and health issues down the road. These parasites are more common in cats than dogs and are relatively easy to treat. Here, our Rochester vets explain the symptoms, treatments, and causes of ear mites in cats.
Vaccine Reactions in Dogs
The benefits of having your dog vaccinated typically far outweigh the risk of reactions to the vaccines. That said, some dogs do react to getting their shots. Here's more from our Rochester veterinarians on the most common reactions to vaccines in dogs, and what to do if your dog has a reaction.
Ringworm in Dogs
Although your dog having ringworm doesn't seem too harmful initially, it can lead to bigger problems if left untreated. Our Rochester vets explain everything a dog owner should know about ringworm including identifying and treating it.
Bordetella in Cats
Bordetella bronchiseptica in cats is a bacterium that can cause an upper respiratory illness. It is mostly a concern in environments where cats are maintained in large groupings, such as rescue shelters and some breeding houses. Antibiotics may successfully cure infections, and an effective vaccination is available in many areas. Today, our Rochester vets discuss cat bordetella and what you can do to spot and stop it.
CCL Surgery in Dogs
Cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) ruptures are a common orthopedic injury in dogs. Our Rochester vets explain the injury as well as the CCL surgery process that is likely necessary for your dog.
