North Deering Veterinary Hospital

🐾 Flea & tick season is here — and it’s in full force! 🐾

Make sure your pets stay protected by keeping up with their monthly preventatives. Not sure what NexGard PLUS covers? Just one dose every 30 days helps protect your dog from:

✔️ Fleas
✔️ Ticks
✔️ Heartworm
✔️ Roundworms
✔️ Hookworms

If your pet is due for their next dose, stop by our clinic anytime to pick up more preventatives and keep them covered all year long! 🐶❤️

Whew! Portland is HOT!!
With temperatures rising, it’s important to remember that hot weather can become dangerous for our furry friends very quickly.

Here are a few ways to help keep your pets safe as things heat up:
💧 Always provide fresh, cool water
🌳 Make sure they have access to shade or air conditioning
🚫 Avoid walks during the hottest parts of the day
🐾 Remember: pavement can burn paws — if it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for their feet
🚗 Never leave pets unattended in a vehicle, even for a few minutes

Signs of heatstroke can include excessive panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, or collapse. If you notice any of these symptoms, seek veterinary care immediately.

Stay safe and help your pets beat the heat! ❤️
