Englishtown Pet MD and our mobile clinic, Mobile Met MD, offer comprehensive care and expertise for your furry companions. With a deep understanding of the distress pet owners face when they find an unusual growth on their pet, we’re well-equipped to address these concerns with compassion and proficiency. 

Cat noses are so distinct and adorable they can be classified as a veritable, kissable target of human affection. Unfortunately, nasal infections in cats are not only common, they’re responsible for inflammation, pain, and various complications. Causes and severity of nose and sinus infections vary considerably, but one thing is constant: the need for immediate veterinary care and treatment. 

Cats value their autonomy and look down on anyone reckless enough to get a good look inside any of their body parts. In particular, cats have rather strong opinions about any attention to their mouths. Full of sharp, pointy teeth they’re not afraid to use, cat’s mouths can actually provide a full picture of their overall health. Tooth decay in cats is a real threat to feline vitality and longevity, but it’s entirely preventable with the right approach.

At Englishtown Vet MD (and our mobile clinic Mobile Vet MD), we believe in offering quality, loving veterinary care for our clients and their pets. Part of the way we do this is by providing you with helpful information about pet ownership to make it easier to keep your pets healthy and happy. Here are our top blogs of 2023 to help you start the New Year on the right paw:

Winter’s arrival brings cozy sweaters, hot chocolate, and peaceful snowfall. But it also brings some seasonal risks for your beloved pets. 

As temperatures plummet, we humans know how to bundle up and stay warm, but what about our four-legged family members? At Englishtown Vet MD, we want you to be aware of the winter hazards that pose a real threat to your dogs and cats. Let’s look at some of the common perils of the season for dogs and cats to keep your furry friends safe and healthy.

While some dogs have refined tastes, most pups will try to get just about anything between their jaws. A little gastrointestinal upset is just par for the course in a wide variety of dog-owning households. Dogs may be able to clear the room, but an upset stomach or sensitive tummy are nothing to laugh at. 

When a canine urinary tract infection strikes, it can be very uncomfortable for you and your dog. Unchecked, it can even lead to more serious issues. Do you know what symptoms of bladder infection in dogs can be, though? Mobile Vet M.D. can help you know when your pup might need help so you can get them some relief sooner!

Any mammal can contract and spread rabies, but the primary carriers involve wildlife such as bats, skunks, raccoons, and foxes. In fact, according to the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases, more than 90% of the 5,000 annual U.S. cases of rabies affect wildlife. However, that means approximately 10% of all rabies cases affect companion animals. Since pets can become infected with rabies and potentially pass it on to people, the prevention of the disease is vitally important. Fortunately, the rabies vaccination for dogs and cats is required by law.

In order to better serve pets and their owners, we are excited to announce that Mobile Vet MD is now a part of Englishtown Vet MD! We are happy to provide an expanded comprehensive list of services for pets in the Englishtown area at our physical location, while still offering the comfort and convenience of mobile clinic appointments. 

Your relationship with your pet is a very special and valuable thing. When it comes time to say goodbye, it can be extremely difficult. End-of-life care for cats and dogs is something that Mobile Vet MD helps our clients with quite often. When it comes time to discuss pet euthanasia and hospice, know that you are in expert, caring hands.
