It's estimated that over half of all cats and dogs in the United States are overweight or obese. What can you do to help combat this problem?

📣 Today is National Pet Obesity Awareness Day!
A rotund Rover or Felix can be a cute, but just like humans, that extra layer for lovin’ can have some serious consequences.
Obesity leads to reduced life expectancy, diminished quality of life, chronic inflammation, orthopedic disease, kidney dysfunction, respiratory disorders, cancer, and more.
To give our pets the best life possible, we have to help them avoid packing a few extra pounds. If you have questions or concerns about your pet's weight, give us a call at 214-726-0838 to schedule an exam. We're here to help you determine how much food to feed, how much exercise to give, and keep your pet healthy!

📣 Did you know October is National Pet Wellness Month?
👉 By age two, most dogs and cats have already reached adulthood. By the time they reach age four, they're considered middle-aged. At age seven, many dogs and cats have already started their senior years. Because dogs and cats age five to seven times faster than people, an annual visit to the veterinarian every year is equivalent to people seeing their physician or dentist every five to seven years!
📞 People want the best healthcare for themselves and for their pets, and for dogs and cats, this means regular wellness exams. We can tell you how often you're pet should be seen, just give us a call at 214-726-0838 to schedule an exam and we'll work together to create wellness plan specifically for your pet!

📣 November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month!
If you’ve been thinking about adding a four-legged-friend to your family, consider opening your home and your heart to an older dog or cat in need.💙
While small kittens and puppies may be adorable, older pets are just as loving and loyal as their younger counterparts. Not to mention, adopting a senior animal companion comes with some cool advantages:
🐾 Grown-up pets don’t require the constant monitoring and training that puppies and kittens do.
🐾 Many are already house-trained.
🐾 Since senior pets are fully grown, you’ll be immediately aware of important information like personality type and grooming requirements, making it easier to choose the perfect pet for your family.

📣 It's National Senior Pet Month!
Thanks to better care, pets are living longer now than they ever have before – but as pets get older, they need extra care and attention. Regular veterinary examinations can detect problems in older pets before they become advanced or life-threatening, and improve the chances of a longer and healthier life for your pet.
If you have a senior pet (typically 7 years of age for cats and small dogs, 5-6 years of age for larger dog breeds), be sure they're having routine wellness exams - just give us a call at 214-726-0838 to schedule an appointment for your sweet senior pet today!

Meet Caesar! 5 weeks post op from having the Tightrope Cranial Cruciate repair on his left leg. Look at him go!
At Highlands-Eldorado Veterinary Hospital, we are proud to be one of the few hospitals in our area who perform ACL/CCL surgeries for dogs, including TPLO surgery, at a more affordable cost than many specialty facilities!
ACL tears in dogs tend to happen due to chronic biomechanical stress on the joint. If your dog has the beginnings of an ACL tear, it will inevitably continue to deteriorate because of the continued stress. This is an important aspect of canine ACL damage, because it means that unless the ACL is repaired, their mobility and quality of life will inevitably suffer as the condition worsens.
If you are interested in a surgical estimate, we invite you to schedule an examination by giving us a call or visit our website at

Happy National Answer Your Cat’s Questions Day!
Have you ever wondered what your cat is trying to tell you through certain behavior? For example, when your cat pees on your pillow, he’s not trying to get even with you for coming home late. When he scratches your new sofa, he’s not being bad. Because cats have different needs and desires than us and a completely different way of seeing the world, they communicate in ways that we don’t always understand or appreciate.
