Welcome to Whitney's Online!
We have articles about pet care that we hope will help you to understand your pet's diagnosis, pages that show and explain orthopedic and other surgeries, ultrasound diagnostics, emergency first-aid tips, pet hazards to be aware of, fun ways to exercise with your pet, and treat recipes that you can make at home. We also have articles about traveling with and taking care of your Best Friend.
You may want to start with a list of our Care and Diagnosis Articles, and then look over our Services Page.

Ok, so it's been raining - a lot - in Peoria! Our puppies still need to play and interact with us.
Can you park the car in the drive for a little while while you play with your "Guy" - or "Gal" in the garage - or clear a space in the basement? If not, maybe just some petting and snuggling in the living room.

Dr. Hayes will be giving a talk about First Aid for Pets on Tues. evening - May 20th and Dr. Baker's next Puppy Hour will be May 19th
If you couldn't make the Arthritis talk, you may want to read Dr. Hayes' finished handouts about Arthritis in Pets, | Senior Pet Blood Panels, and a related article about What the Blood test means. After you read those, you may want to read Senior Pet Care.

If you have dogs or cats that live outside, please check their bedding and water at least once a day. They aren't wild animals any more! Centuries of breeding have eliminated most of their instincts and survival abilities. If their bedding gets wet, they won't be able to get warm; and all animals need a source of fresh water!
I know spring is here, but enough of winter is lingering on that we have to be vigilant about their care. Some reminders may be in order. Taking Care of your pet in the winter.

Our Doctors recommend giving heartworm tablets all year for prevention of heartworm and other parasites. Also, don't discontinue your flea-prevention. Especially if you take your dog or cat with you to pet stores, training clubs, dog shows, or even the homes of other family members. You don't want to bring the little pests home with you. (How awkward would that be at the next family reunion?) Fleas carry tapeworm and other parasites and they try to move inside for the winter, so they could be waiting for your little "walking lunch" to come along.
Our pets really, really love this dog treat recipe.

How about a little fun for the younger set? Let them try one of our Crossword Puzzles. They're based on our handouts, so they can look the answers up if they get stumped.
