Just like humans, animals and pets have to readjust to
time changes. Internally, your reptile knows when he should eat, take a soak,
or go for a swim. You may find it odd that your reptile is begging for food at
5 p.m. in the fall but remember according to summer time it’s actually 6 p.m.
and he’s ready for dinner. You also may find your turtle tucking himself in for
the night and it’s barely 7 p.m. Again, his internal clock says it’s 8 p.m. and
he ready for sleep. Whatever your reptile’s schedule, he’s going to keep to it
even though the clocks have been set back and you’re on a different routine.
You can help your reptile adjust by slowly changing the times when he eats.
Have him wait a little longer each day until he’s back on clock schedule. If
you’re still concerned, give your vets London, ON a
call.

Split Time Equally with Multiple Dogs
If you have multiple dogs in your home chances are one of them is going to feel left out or as though he isn’t receiving your full attention. When this happens he may show aggression towards the other dogs or be overly protective of you. One of the ways you can prevent this is to ensure you spend equal amount of time with each dog. If you go for a walk, stop every now and then and reward each dog with a treat, praise or a pat on the head. Give each dog his own time on the couch with you. Make sure all dogs eat at the same time and separately. If you take one dog for a walk on his own, make sure you take the other dog for a walk on his own. Any special treats or attention should be shared equally. For more tips and suggestions, give your pet London, ON a call.

How to Register Your Cat’s Microchip ID
It’s important to register your
cat’s microchip ID in order for it to be an effective way to protect your cat
from getting lost. If your cat has a microchip, make sure you know the number
associated with it and then contact a registry and register the microchip along
with your cat’s information and your contact information. Home again is a
popular register (although it may charge). Found Animals and Free Pet Microchip
Registry are also popular. Ask your vet to scan your cat and tell you the ID
number. Call or log on to the website of one of the agencies mentioned, follow
the directions and complete the online registration form. You will receive a
confirmation and any further instructions. Now if your cat is lost and scanned
for ID, the microchip will lead back to you. If you need assistance with
registering, contact your vet London, ON.

Exercising with your dog
Your dog is a
big part of your life so it’s important to you that she stays healthy and fit.
Since you want the same for yourself, you’re wondering if there is a way to
tackle these tasks together. How can you exercise with your dog?
Your dog needs
you to first take the time to understand her capabilities and limitations so
you can safely take part in physical activity together. This will likely mean
heading out for a walk, but some dogs may be up for a jog, a hike, or even a
run. You can also make a point to play more actively with one another. This
will mean moving about alongside your pet and engaging in ways you may not have
before, like running beside her when she goes to fetch a ball. For more
information, please contact your local animal hospital London ON.

How your cat can enjoy time with others
Your cat wants
to be able to socialize when the mood strikes her, but she typically sticks to
interacting with you since she knows you the best. How can you help her learn
to enjoy time with others?
Your pet may
need the time to get familiar with another individual if she is to spend time
with them. Bring potential playmates around often, and let your pet observe
them from afar. Make sure that the individuals are aware of your pet’s
preferences and make an effort to welcome her into the area they are spending
time in. Your pet should be encouraged to approach them in her own time, as
forcing her to get a closer look may cause her to retreat for a longer period
of time and be even more cautious. For additional
information, please contact your local London, ON veterinarian.
