he holidays are a time to spend with friends and family. Celebrating and

entertaining are large components of what makes Thanksgiving, Christmas, Chanukah and New Year’s festivities so enjoyable. But holiday hosts with pets must consider companion animals when planning the festivities. ♦♦ Secure the tree: Securely anchor the Christmas tree so it won’t tip over on anyone, including rambunctious pets.

Stagnant tree stand water can also grow bacteria. If a pet should drink the water, it could end up with nausea or diarrhea.

Replenish the tree basin with fresh water daily. ♦♦ Skip the candles: When creating mood lighting, opt for electronic or batterypowered lights instead of open flames. Pets may knock over candles, which can be an instant fire hazard. ♦♦ Keep food out of reach: Situate food buffets beyond the reach of hungry and curious animals. Warn guests to promptly throw out their leftovers so dogs and cats do not sneak away with scraps that may cause upset stomach or worse. Real Simple magazine warns fatty foods can

overnight guests to keep their toiletries secure to avoid accidental exposure. ♦♦ Be cautious with cocktails: If the celebration will include alcoholic beverages, the ASPCA urges placing unattended adult beverages where pets cannot reach them.

Ingested alcohol can make pets ill, weak and even induce comas. ♦♦ Be picky about plants: Mistletoe, holly and poinsettias can be dangerous in petfriendly households. These plants can cause gastrointestinal upset and may lead to

other problems if ingested. Opt for artificial replicas instead. If guests bring flowers, confirm they are nontoxic to pets before putting them on display. ♦♦ Watch the door: Guests going in and out may inadvertently leave doors open. In such instances, pets that get scared or are door dashers may be able to escape the house. Put a note by the door to watch for escaping pets. ♦♦ Designate a safe space for pets: If the holiday hustle proves too much for cats, dogs, birds and more, give the pet a safe, quiet spot away from the crowds.

Holiday hosts should factor in pet safety when they open their homes to guests.

s the holidays roll around, making sure your pets are happy and healthy is the

best gift you can give them. And when it comes to care, Brentwood Family Pet Care has you covered.

Dr. Scott Lichlyter first opened the practice in 2000 and has since expanded not only his clinic space, but the number of doctors and staff. There are now six doctors in the three-suite building on Balfour Road.

“I love the job and being able to work with such a great group of people,” said Lichlyter. “There’s just something special about people who love animals.”

On staff to help things run smoothly behind the scenes is Lichlyter’s sister, Rochelle Walker, who serves as the hospital administrator. Walker expanded on the

“We do everything you’d expect from a veterinarian, and quite a few surgeries,” Walker said, further noting the specialized surgeries offered for ‘squish-faced’ dogs, such as pugs or bulldogs.

“Dr. Lichlyter performs a surgery for those dogs with short noses in order to help them breathe. In this part of the world, they don’t have the long snout to

While they don’t offer grooming or boarding services, she said the practice will cover all the health basics, including dental procedures that involve putting the animal under anesthesia to thoroughly clean around the gums. The Brentwood Family Pet Care team will make sure your pet has the proper health certifications for

traveling outside the U.S., or for overnight stays in a boarding facility where the animal must have proof of vaccinations.

The practice also enlists the services of traveling specialists, so patients in need of specialty treatment do not need to travel to Davis or Walnut Creek.

uring the season of giving, many families welcome a new furry member to the

family, but adoption experts agree: Education and patience are the key to keeping those pets from being a gift one minute and in the shelter the next.

The arrival of a new furry friend at the holidays is irresistible to many gift-givers, but experts caution families to be sure a new addition is best for everyone. go when it feels overwhelmed, needs a break from training or chooses to spend the night,” she said. “It is also a spot where its humans can put it while they go away to work or shop or when they also need a break from training – or where they choose to have it spend the night until they know it can be trusted out and about in the house while everyone sleeps.”

Ott-Bales also said her group encourages something called “umbilical cord training,” a method in which the dog is on leash at all times when in the house but not in a crate.

“It’s a good way to encourage good

behavior in the dog, show it where its pack lives, and create a bond with the humans at the other end of the leash,” she explained.

“It is also a way to housetrain, because the dog can’t go in another room to do its business or even do its business and get away with it.”

No matter the type of animal, Ott-Bates encouraged people to do their research and ask themselves realistic questions before ever bringing home a pet.

“Are you gone longer than four hours at a time? Don’t get a very young puppy, as they need their ‘pack’ around to train them away from things they will do to

Cindy Ott-Bales, president of Throw Me A Bone Dog Rescue in Oakley, said there are many misconceptions people have about bringing home a new pet. One of the most common is that bringing an animal into your home is never as simple as just bringing it home.

“Whether adopting a puppy or an adult dog, in the time after it becomes part of your home and family, it needs to have an adjustment period,” Ott-Bales said.

“How long it takes depends on the dog and its age. This is the time where it learns who its new pack members are, where it’s okay to toilet, what is and is not off limits, and what the rules of the house are. Mistakes can and most likely will be made.”

She advised dog owners to adhere to crate training, because a crate offers the pet a den it would instinctively build for itself in the wild.

“It is a safe place where the dog can

entertain themselves while you’re gone,” she said. “First time dog? Don’t get one of the more intelligent breeds unless you’ve had experience with them, as they will need jobs and may end up training their person rather than their person training them. Do you have very young children? Don’t go for a tiny breed that your child may injure inadvertently …”

She also said you can never know an animal until you’ve met them in person.

“A dog should not be a gift without meeting its intended recipient,” she said.

“Even if you are getting a puppy for your kids and you know you will be its true caregiver, you need to make sure the kids are good with the dog and vice versa … No one benefits when that gift ends up in a shelter because it wasn’t a wanted gift.”

Ott-Bales noted the best time of year to adopt a dog is when you have the time to devote to ensuring a good transition into your home. But if you’re not 100% sure, fostering animals is a great option where everyone wins. Throw Me A Bone is actively recruiting foster parents.

“Just one dog fostered until it finds a permanent home is a life saved!” she said.

When it comes to kitties, many of the same thoughts apply: Be prepared to do more than just bring the new animal home.

ven though we don’t want to leave our pets during the holidays, sometimes there are

no other options when traveling to visit family.

Here in East County, there are several boarding facilities that will accept your pets for extended stays — and even some sitters who welcome animals into their homes while you’re away.

Brentwood Pet Resort The Brentwood Pet Resort offers boarding, activities, spa services and more.

Both cats and dogs can find a safe place to call home while you’re away.

“I was in a bind and needed to kennel

my dog on what seemed like the busiest weekend ever,” wrote Giuliana Callahan in a five-star review. “… my dog has stayed twice now and each time I’ve picked him up, he’s happy ... I would recommend them to anyone looking to kennel their dog!”

For more information, visit www. brentwoodpetresort.com.

Pets Frolic Inn

Located in the heart of the country, Pets Frolic Inn offers boarding, grooming, doggie day care and pet pick-up services.

“The staff here (is) amazing!” wrote Cody Warren in a five-star review. “Everyone always has a smile and (is) excited to see your dog come in. They also offer supervised off-leash puppy playtime for dogs that get along well with each other.”

For more information, visit www. petsfrolicinn.com.

Home from page 4B president and cat manager, unrealistic expectations and allergies are the two main contributing factors to unsuccessful adoptions.

“As a human, if you walked into a mansion all by yourself with no one to tell you where things are, you’d be lost, too,” she said.

“Oftentimes, we have pets go out and we tell them particular cats are shy, but (the owner will) bring them back in a few days saying it’s not going to work. Cats are going to be afraid, and they may not eat for the first 24 hours when you get them. When we (foster parents) get them, they hide at our houses, too.”

She also encouraged potential pet parents to put together a list

Doggie Depot A one-stop shop, Doggie Depot offers boarding, grooming, nail trimming, treatments for flaky skin and even hot oil coat therapy.

The hotel service is available for both cats and dogs. Dogs are given a suite, multiple potty visits and rotating personal play time. Cats have private condos with a playroom as well.

“We absolutely love Megan and her staff!” wrote Nancy Locke Plant in an online review.

of what they want in a cat, with the color being of least importance on that list.

“People come in and they say they want a gray one, but what they really want is a lap cat or one that’s sweet,” she explained.

“They should think about what characteristics they want in a cat.

We have lots of black cats right now, and they are so sweet, but they’re passed up time and again.”

Leonardo also said her team is looking for fosters.

Keep those pearly whites sparkling for the holidays inside its mouth that can make a difference in comfort and health

but the way pet owners take care of the animal’s teeth, gums and more.

Oral hygiene, this oft-overlooked component of pet care, can mean the difference between a happy, healthy pet and one that may be suffering in silence.

The American Veterinary Dental College reports brushing an animal’s teeth is the single most effective means to maintain oral health between professional vet examinations.

Bacteria that forms naturally in an animal’s mouth will contribute to the formation of plaque which, left untreated, can lead to periodontal disease. By brushing away the precursors to plaque, pet owners can achieve optimal dental health for their pets.

Oral hygiene doesn’t begin and end with regular brushing. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) also suggests pet lovers work with a veterinary dentist to evaluate the health of teeth, the jaws and the roots below the gum line. These professionals are invested in all aspects of oral health care and can be called on for routine cleaning, filing, extraction, or tooth repairs if need be.

The AVMA notes periodontal disease

Pets from page 3B practicing veterinarian, said the most motivating part of her work is her love of animals and their owners.

“It’s been my passion since I was a young child to help injured animals,” Heath said. “My job is my passion.”

And for Walker, who said her role is to take care of the people who take care of the animals, seeing the pets and their humans become like family is the best part of her job.

“We have pets that will drag their owners into the facility,” she said. “The staff gives them enough love and attention to offset the fact that they’re actually getting medically treated. The relationship that the staff has with the owners — a lot of them got acquainted and now they’re friends outside the office, too. Our patients aren’t just numbers; they’re friends.”

is the most common dental condition in dogs and cats, and by the time the animal reaches three years of age, it may have some early evidence of periodontal disease, which can only worsen if preventative measures are not taken.

Pet dental problems are similar to those that occur in people. While dental caries (cavities) are less likely, abscesses, infections, broken teeth and palate defects can occur.

Signs of potential oral problems include bad breath, abnormal chewing, disinterest in eating, swelling in the gums, tenderness when the mouth is touched or bleeding.

Pets may become irritable if their mouths are bothering them, so if behavior changes

are observed, dogs or cats should be seen by a veterinarian to find out if a dental issue is at the root of the problem.

Some pet owners are reticent to handle oral health care for their companion animals because they fear the pet may bite if uncomfortable. Although this is always a possibility, dogs and cats can grow accustomed to teeth being brushed or wiped with patience, says AVDC. Oral rinses and special chews also can reduce plaque formation.

Dental health is an important component of responsible pet ownership. Home oral hygiene and professional cleanings and examinations can help pets remain healthy.
