This
is where we do our baths and dips. For those pets who
board with us, we strongly
recommend that they be given a bath on the day of
dismissal. The bath removes all kennel odor and any soiling
caused by the pet soiling the kennel area.
Many pets do not show
evidence of fleas when admitted to the hospital, but in fact do
have flea eggs on the skin which are not seen. The flea may then
hatch out in a few days. Kennels are often accused of “infesting”
the pet. This is almost impossible in our dog and cat wards because all pets
are kept in individual stainless steel kennels and never exposed
to another pet. The bath will also help to assure that your pet
is “flea-free” when he/she leaves the hospital, as well as preserve
our good reputation.
