Meet Jets 🐾✨

Our one and only mascot, Jets the Yorkshire Terrier, proudly represents all the tiny (but mighty!) patients here at Silver Heights Veterinary Hospital! Don’t let his small size fool you—Jets has a big message for all pet parents:

Heartworm and Lyme disease are serious, but prevention starts with a simple blood test. Regular heartworm/Lyme screening helps us catch problems early and keep your furry family members protected from harmful parasites year-round.

Give us a call today to book your pet's bloodwork and ensure they are prepared for any outdoor adventure!

Pucker up, it’s St. Catrick’s Day… and Percy’s giving sweet and sassy for Tongue’s Out Tuesday! 😛☘️

Percy is feeling extra lucky this St. Patrick’s Day! This adorable little leprechaun stopped by to see Dr. Kahlon for his Feline Leukemia (FeLV) vaccine — and he shamrocked it! 💚

So what is Feline Leukemia (FeLV)?
FeLV is a contagious viral disease that affects cats and can suppress the immune system, making it harder for them to fight off infections. In some cases, it can lead to anemia, chronic illness, or even certain cancers.

How is it spread?
FeLV is most commonly transmitted through:

Close contact with infected cats

Grooming and sharing food/water bowls

Bite wounds

From mother cats to their kittens

Because kittens and young cats are especially vulnerable, vaccination is an important step in protecting their long-term health — especially if they may have contact with other cats.

If you have a new kitten at home or have questions about the FeLV vaccine, we’re here to help. Give us a call to make sure your little lucky charm is protected! 💚🐾

Spring is just around the corner 🌷☀️ — and with warmer weather comes the return of parasites

What you’re seeing in these photos:

🔬 A microscopic view of heartworm circulating in a blood sample

🧫 A Lyme-positive SNAP test from a patient’s blood sample

These are real reminders that parasites are active — often before we realize it.

🌡️ Remember: if it’s over 4°C (39°F), ticks are active and looking for a host!

At Silver Heights Veterinary Hospital, we recommend testing before giving heartworm prevention as existing heartworm disease can cause complications. A quick blood test helps us make sure it’s safe to start (or restart) protection.

Spring is the perfect time to test, protect, and prevent.
Call us to book your pet’s blood screening and stay ahead of parasite season! 🌼🐾

Bandit was all purrs and bravery during her recent spay surgery with Dr. Kahlon! 🌸🐾

This sweet kitten rocked the cutest little flower cone while she recovered, and we couldn’t get enough of her tiny whiskered face peeking out.

Spaying or neutering is so important for your pet’s long-term health. These procedures help prevent certain cancers and infections, reduce unwanted behaviors, and play a big role in preventing pet overpopulation in our community.

We’re so proud of Bandit for being such a superstar patient! 💕 If you have questions about spaying or neutering your pet, our team is always here to help!

🐾Spread savings, not disease! 🐾

Spring is here (no seriously, trust us on this one), and the parasites are waking up with the warmer (stay with us) weather. March and April are prime months for heartworm and tick‑borne illness testing, and early screening is one of the simplest ways to keep your pet healthy all season long.

🐛Heartworm is carried by mosquitoes long before you start noticing them.

🕷Ticks become active as soon as temperatures rise above freezing.

Early testing helps catch problems before they become serious — and keeps prevention simple and affordable.

We’re offering special spring savings on combined heartworm + tick‑borne disease testing. (*Up to 25% off of your dogs test, and 10% off of a full season of prevention!)

💖Protect their heart, protect their health, and protect your wallet at the same time.

Call, or click to book your pet’s spring screening.
Let’s make this the season we spread savings, not disease.

Silver Heights Veterinary Hospital would like to introduce our new buddy, Ace! 🐾💙

This handsome Rottweiler puppy was recently in to see Dr. Perrault for his second round of puppy vaccines, and we just had to brag on him a little. Ace was an excellent patient—sat so nicely and politely for his cookies (10/10 good boy behavior ✨).

🐶 Puppy vaccine reminder:

To build strong, lasting immunity, puppies need a series of 3 distemper/parvo vaccines given at 8, 12, and 16 weeks of age. This schedule is so important to protect them from these serious and potentially devastating illnesses while their immune systems are still developing.

We’re so proud of you, Ace, and we can’t wait to watch you grow!

Sweet patient spotlight 🐾

Featuring Daisy! She recently visited us to see Dr. Perrault for a suspected ear infection. We performed an ear cytology to find the cause, gave her a thorough ear cleaning by our skilled veterinary technologists, and sent her home with anti-itch medication and ear drops to help her feel better. Daisy was all about holding paws for moral support and was an absolute star the whole time 💕🐶

Hiya Oscar! 🐶✨

Fresh from his neuter surgery and already stealing hearts in his post-op shirt! Doesn’t he look SO handsome?

That stylish surgery shirt (or the classic cone) isn’t just for looks—it plays a big role in healing. Cones and surgery suits help prevent licking or chewing at the incision, which reduces the risk of infection and helps everything heal faster and more safely.

Oscar is doing wonderfully, and we’re so proud of him for being such a good patient. Here’s to comfy recovery days and many healthy adventures ahead! 💙

Welcome Marty! 🐾 — this handsome Mastiff was recently in for his kennel cough vaccination, and he was a champion!

What is kennel cough?
It’s a highly contagious respiratory infection that causes coughing, productive gagging, and a runny nose. Most dogs recover well without intervention, but it can be uncomfortable—and in some cases become serious.

Who’s at risk?
Dogs who socialize! That includes pups who visit boarding facilities, groomers, dog parks, training classes, or daycare.

How can you protect your dog?
✔️ Keep vaccinations up to date
✔️ Avoid close contact with sick dogs
✔️ Talk to your vet before boarding or group activities

Way to go, Marty—we love seeing our patients stay healthy and protected! 💙

🐾 Meet Cammie 🐶🍫

Cute face, important lesson!

Cammie came to see us after getting into chocolate (a big no-no for dogs). While she was very sweet about it, chocolate toxicity is no joke. To keep her safe, our team induced vomiting, then gave her anti-nausea medication and activated charcoal to help bind any remaining toxins in her system.

Thankfully, Cammie is doing well — but she’s here as a gentle reminder that even common household treats can be dangerous for pets. 💛

👉 If you ever suspect your dog (or cat!) has gotten into a toxin, please don’t wait. Call your veterinary hospital immediately, as acting quickly can make all the difference.

Give Cammie some extra love today — and always make sure to get yourself a friend who will tie your ears back!✨
