What is leptospirosis?

Leptospirosis is caused by bacterial organisms called Leptospira which is spread via the urine of infected animals. These bacteria can be shed in the soil and water which can then serve as a source of infection for dogs.

Best Friends Employee Photo Contest 2014

Posted by: Best Friends

We asked our employees at each of our 53 locations to participate in a company wide employee photo contest. We've seen some of the great photos they take on a daily basis for our Best Friends Photo Program, so we knew they were going to blow us away with their entries. And that they did. We received everything from photos of dogs running and playing to pets playing doctor! See for yourself in this video compilation.

With a growing company of over 50 pet care and veterinary centers, we think it's important to recognize each and every location as a valued and unique member of our Best Friends family. That's why we'd like to introduce the Best Friends Spotlight Series here on our Dog Dish blog where we will celebrate the unique attributes and staff from each of our locations.

To kick it off, we'd like to introduce Phoenix Veterinary Hospital as the newest addition to the Best Friends Total Pet Care family.

Ask The Vet- Chocolate Dangers for Dogs

Posted by: Best Friends

With Valentine’s Day comes an abundance of chocolate (hopefully)! While these sweet treats are a delight for us, they are not at all good for our furry family members. Chocolate contains caffeine as well as a compound known as theobromine which can cause hyperactivity, increased heart rate, tremors, and even death if ingested in large quantities. Baker’s chocolate or any kind of dark chocolate are the most concerning since these have the highest level of toxicity.
