Preventive Care

Dental Care
We provide a full-range of medical, surgical and dental services to dogs, cats and other small mammals. Our modern facility, full hospital services, and modern technology are some of the reasons why Brickyard Animal Hospital is the best choice for your pet’s health, but our staff and doctors are definitely our most valuable assets. As backyard housing of traditional farm animals, such as goats and chickens, increases, we can offer basic care for those species as well.

Vaccination
Diseases. The frequency of immunizations will depend on a variety of factors: animal’s age, vaccination history and life style factors such as travel, day care and boarding. All dogs, cats and ferrets are legally required to be current on vaccination for rabies.
Veterinary Ophthalmology
Behavioral Counseling
A ‘light’ symmetrical wing-clip will allow a bird to fly down and land safely while indoors. However such a clip may not prevent the bird from flying when outdoors, since lift is generated in proportion to wind speed. Many escaped birds which are recovered, are found to have been clipped. So, while a light clip allows downward flight indoors, it does not prevent a bird gaining lift if it should escape outdoors. Conversely, a more severe clip will certainly render a bird flightless, but it increases the risk of injury if the bird falls and hits a hard surface. In addition to the physical effects of wing-clipping, there can be adverse behavioral effects. Birds use flight as an instinctive reflex action and as their first means of escaping any threat: they take to the air to fly upwards and away from the source of the threat; their fear then dissipates. Where this behavior is prevented by wing-clipping, this innate reflex action is denied the bird, and its fear will not subside. This may cause behavioral problems for the afflicted bird. When a bird needs to reduce its speed during flight, it employs a ‘reverse thrust’ action by extending its wing at the wrist joint and using the drag of its primaries as air brakes. While the reduced function of the clipped bird’s primaries prevent propulsion and therefore lift, this also reduces braking abilities, so clipped birds may crash-land at higher speeds than full-winged birds.
Nutritional Counseling
Unfortunately, there is a lot of inaccurate information available regarding pet nutrition. In general, we do not recommend feeding raw-food diets or grain-free foods.
Comprehensive Examination
As part of regular physical exams, dogs, cats and ferrets should receive an oral (mouth) exam. While this gives us some idea of a patient’s dental health, it can not show all forms of dental disease.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
It is never too early to examine blood chemistries on your pets. Wellness panels help to provide a baseline to compare to, as animals age. We use both our in house lab and the best reference lab in the world to provide the information we are looking to document and save. Often, blood values cue us into diseases that are not yet showing symptoms, while these diseases can still be easily and economically resolved. This is your best preventitive measure against Parasites in your pets that can affect your entire family. In Utah, we can make our pets virtually parasite free. We recommend year-round monthly internal parasite control for your cats and dogs as well as seasonal medication for heart worms.
Pain Management
Vomiting Treatment
Diarrhea Treatment
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
Paracetamol or acetaminophen (trade name Panadol and Tylenol) is extremely toxic to cats, and should not be given to them under any circumstances. Cats lack the necessary glucuronyl transferase enzymes to safely break paracetamol down and minute portions of a normal tablet for humans may prove fatal.Initial symptoms include vomiting, salivation and discoloration of the tongue and gums. After around two days, liver damage is evident, typically giving rise to jaundice. Unlike an overdose in humans, it is rarely liver damage that is the cause of death, instead methaemoglobin formation and the production of Heinz bodies in red blood cells inhibit oxygen transport by the blood, causing asphyxiation. Effective treatment is occasionally possible for small doses, but must be extremely rapid.

Infection Treatment

Leptospirosis Treatment
An immunization schedule that is species-specific and consistent with your pet’s lifestyle will be recommended. Typically, dogs will be protected against distemper, hepatitis, leptospirosis, parainfluenza, parvo virus, corona virus, kennel cough and rabies. Cat’s immunizations include panleukopenia (distemper), rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, Chlamydia, rabies, and feline leukemia.

Chronic Condition Treatment

Hip Dysplasia Treatment
Brickyard Animal Hospital is a modern, full-service facility where we can provide for almost all of your pet’s health care needs. In addition to the usual services offered by most clinics, Brickyard Animal Hospital has added capabilities that make us the best choice when selecting a veterinarian for your pet. We use the latest technology, such as Digital X-Ray and the OFA Method for measuring Hip Dysplasia, to give your pet the best possible care.
Heart Disease Treatment
Thiosulfate levels are not affected by cooking or processing. Small puppies have died of hemolytic anemia after being fed baby food containing onion powder. Occasional exposure to small amounts is usually not a problem, but continuous exposure to even small amounts can be a serious threat. Also garlic contains thiosulfate, even if to a significantly lesser extent, and it is also known to cause diarrhea and vomiting. Small doses of garlic 5-6 times per week can improve dog health, since garlic is a natural antimicrobial and helps to prevent heart disease. It is stated that garlic have also repellent effects on fleas and ticks, especially in combination with brewer’s or nutritional yeast.
Kidney Disease Treatment
The leaves of the Easter Lily can cause permanent and life-threatening kidney damage to cats, and Philodendron are also poisonous to cats. The Cat Fanciers’ Association has a full list of plants harmful to cats.

Wound and Fracture Care
Poisoning Treatment

Veterinary Surgery
In addition to general veterinary practice (including interest in dentistry and soft tissue surgery), Dr. Allen enjoys working with small mammal exotics and endurance racing sled dogs. He has served as a trail veterinary at the Hudson Bay Quest out of Churchill, Manitoba, Canada, and the Femundlopet in Norway. He has also done volunteer veterinary work in Fiji.
Spaying and Neutering
Millions of unwanted dogs and cats are needlessly destroyed every year. There just aren’t enough good homes for all these pets. This is why spaying or neutering your pet is so important. By having your dog or cat surgically sterilized, you are helping to prevent overpopulation and the birth of unwanted puppies or kittens. Also, these procedures improve your pet’s health and quality of life.

Laboratory Services
Problems in pets before they show symptoms. As with humans, the earlier a problem is found the more options we have for treatment. While beneficial at all life stages, regular blood work should be considered at least annually in older pets, those with known health problems or needing long-term medications.
X-Ray
Dental Radiology
Proper dental diagnostics and treatment require the patient to be under a general anesthesia. A close examination of the teeth and gums along with full mouth dental x-rays should be performed. We strongly discourage the use of so-called ‘anesthesia free dentals’ as they do not allow for the diagnoses or treatment of any problems below the gum line.
