Client Education

Ensuring a happy and safe home environment

One of the goals at Animal Hospital of Ludington, besides keeping your animals in tip-top health, is to help create the steadfast bonds between pet owners and their furry family members. This heartfelt mission includes client education.  

With decades of experience helped to foster our opinion, we feel that informed pet parents have the happiest, healthiest four-footed companions. A topic we are asked about frequently is ensuring that pets get along with younger children. Safety is a normal concern – and setting boundaries is key. 

Learning dog’s body language is very important to maintaining a safe and harmonious household. We feel that this video does a great job of illustrating behaviors to look for that might precede a bite.  It’s been reported that 77% of dog bites to children happen with a family or friend’s dog. To do better, let’s learn the body language that communicates when dogs are uncomfortable. 

We welcome your questions and a dialogue to continue the discussion at your next visit. Keeping all the two- and four-footed family members safe is our ultimate wish.

      ‘Five Stars’ for Dr Paxton as he is a caring, knowledgeable, experienced professional! I had an in-depth conversation around the benefits of Cytopoint injections for my Westie with seasonal dermatitis. Success! Cytopoint was the solution to measurable relief.
      Also I want to share my thoughts on Euthanasia for an aggressive, violent dog. If your veterinarian recommends euthanasia, you should give it serious consideration. Some dogs are not wired correctly. The safety of children, family, & community should be the priority over an aggressive dog. Don’t wait for a disaster to transpire. My family has suffered do to non action of our neighbors aggressive dog.
