Emergency Vet Mythbusters: Summer Edition

Every summer, emergency veterinarians hear well-meaning advice that can actually make a pet’s condition worse. Join us as we bust common warm-weather pet myths and explain what really matters in an emergency.
Topics may include:
“Ice baths are the best treatment for heatstroke.”
“Hydrogen peroxide is always safe to make dogs vomit.”
“It’s probably fine to just watch it overnight.”
“Lake water is harmless if they only drank a little.”
“A limp after hiking is no big deal.”
“Benadryl fixes every bee sting.”
“If they’re still wagging their tail, they must be okay.”
“My pet can swim after surgery because the incision looks healed.”
“One corn cob/hamburger skewer/grape can’t really hurt them, right?”
