Cooper Square Veterinary Hospital

Spring Clean 2015 Despite all evidence to the contrary, Spring is just around the corner and it’s time to clean out all the musty corners and let the fresh inside. While you are concentrating on putting away Winter clothes and opening windows for the first time in months, let Cooper Square Vet bring a little fresh to your pet’s teeth. From March 15th to April 15th all prophylactic dentals are offered for a special rate of $399 for cats and dogs less than 20 pounds, $499 for ...all pets above 20 pounds. This includes a full pre-anesthetic exam, a pre-operative blood panel, ECG and Blood Pressure, dental cleaning and polishing. (If your pet requires dental x-rays and/or tooth extraction there is an additional fee.)* Teeth cleanings are vital to your pet’s health and longevity. Dental disease is linked in dogs and cats to problems with the heart, kidneys and systemic infections, taking care of the problem before it escalates are safer AND less expensive. Not mention a literal breath of fresh air for chronic stinky mouths. Call Cooper Square Vet at 212-777-2630 or email us a [email protected] *Terms and conditions: Offer is valid to current clients whose pet were seen within the last six months. New clients or clients not seen within six months pay one time exam fee of $80.00 to insure the pet is healthy and in need of dental cleaning. Pets must be current on all vaccines and other annual health requirements such as heartworm and fecal testing for parasites.

In this endless Winter we would like to remind you that, unlike Westeros, Spring IS coming.

Thanksgiving Greetings from all of us at Cooper Square Vet and a reminder that no matter how much you get the "Begging Eyes" save the Turkey Dinner for people. You can save a trip to the Vet by sticking with pet safe and friendly treats and remind your guests no slipping snacks under the table! Cooper Square will be closed Thanksgiving Day and open at Noon the following Friday. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!

Apparently, Winter arrived ahead of schedule this year. Just a reminder your small dogs need a few extra layers in the cold weather. If your cats are radiator sleepers, remember to place blanket over the pipes to prevent burns. Stay warm!

The Cone of Shame: They hate it, you hate it, everyone hates it...but they are key to post surgical recovery. Their primary purpose is keeping your pet from re-opening the surgical site and speeding the healing process. If you're pet is sent home with an Elizabethan Collar, keep it securely in place unless you are with arm's reach. It's much better than a second surgery to close an incision.
