Animal Hospital of Grants Pass helps Oregon pet owners find lost pets with latest technology

Grants Pass, OR -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/15/2016 -- The veterinary professionals at the Animal Hospital of Grants Pass in Oregon are helping reunite lost pets and their owners more effectively using the latest microchip technology. By utilizing microchip technology with their pets, owners have a much higher chance of reuniting with their beloved animals in the chance that they become lost.

Statistics show that more than 10 million dogs and cats in the U.S. are lost or stolen each year. Additionally, one in three pets will become lost at some point during their life. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, microchipped dogs and cats have a 30% more likely chance of being reunited with their owners if they become lost.

Pet microchips are extremely small devices, about the size of a grain of rice, that are inserted using a small syringe just under the skin of the pet, usually in the shoulder area. This microchip is programmed with essential information of the pet's owner like a name, phone number, and address that remains with the pet permanently even if they lose the information on the tags of their collar. If a pet becomes lost and found by someone else in the area, they can take them into any veterinary office to be scanned for the information held in the microchip. The scanner reads the information of the chip using radio frequency and the owners can be contacted and alerted that their missing pet has been found.

The process of inserting the microchip is relatively painless for the pet and only takes a few minutes. Additionally, the cost to have pet's microchipped is relatively inexpensive and in most cases costs less than $50 for the implantation and registration. Considering these two factors, the veterinarians and staff at Animal Hospital of Grants Pass encourage all pet owners to microchip their pets to prevent the heartache and stress that can come with losing a pet unexpectedly.

In addition to microchip services, Animal Hospital of Grants Pass offer a comprehensive selection of veterinary services for local clients including wellness visits, vaccines, medical boarding, general medicine and surgery, ultrasounds, fracture repairs, pain management, a full pharmacy, and more.

Animal Hospital of Grants Pass, OR offers fracture repair for pets of all ages and sizes

Grants Pass, OR -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/29/2015 -- The veterinarians and staff at Animal Hospital of Grants Pass are helping pet owners understand the importance of proper fracture repair for animals who have been injured due to trauma or impact. While bone fractures in dogs and cats are similar to what a human experiences, animals are more likely to need surgical care to repair the fracture. However, with proper care and attention, the staff at Animal Hospital of Grants Pass can help pets return to their pre-injury condition and live a happy, healthy, and full life.

While fractured bones in humans most often result in a splint or cast, the same procedure with animals presents many difficulties. In dogs and cats, the femur in the hind limb and the humorous in the front limb are the most commonly fractured bones. But for animals, it can be difficult to keep casts clean and dry as well as avoid pressure and movement, especially with active pets. Due to these conditions, surgical implants like screws, plates, pins, and skeletal fixators are the most common devices that are used to help pets heal from their injury while still active with light movement day-to-day.

The staff at Animal Hospital of Grants Pass emphasize to pet owners that even minimal fractures in the bones of their animals will not heal properly on their own due to forces like bending, torsion, compression, and traction that are all necessary for pet's normal movement. They encourage pet owners to seek x-rays and medical treatment for their pet even if they may be unsure whether or not a fracture is present.

In addition to surgical treatment and stabilization, the home environment of the pet after surgery has an enormous impact on the speed of healing and the overall outcome of the injury. The veterinarians at Animal Hospital of Grants Pass encourage pet owners to take an active role in the decision making process for their animal's treatment plan, and to be dedicated to maintaining ideal conditions for recovery at home.

At the Animal Hospital of Grants Pass, Dr. Webster, Dr. Coenen, and their staff of veterinary professionals provide a wide range of services for animal care, including general medicine, vaccines, animal dental care, parasite control, nutritional counseling, wellness visits, pain management, microchips, endoscopy, and emergency and critical care.
