DoveLewis Veterinary Emergency Hospital Sees Cases of Heat-related Illnesses

DoveLewis Veterinary Emergency Hospital Sees Cases of Heat-related Illnesses

Portland, OR. Veterinarians at DoveLewis say they’re treating animals impacted by the heat. “It’s important to realize how higher temperatures may affect pets. Keeping pets cool is crucial to preventing heat stroke and exhaustion,” said Dr. Jessica Casey. Understanding your pet’s limitations and taking extra precautions in warm weather may be the difference between a fun day in the sun and a trip to the emergency room.

Jedi suffered a serious case of heatstroke during the last heat wave. It took him a while to feel better, but over time he recovered.

Here are tips for keeping dogs and cats safe in extreme heat:

Never leave your pet in a car. On a mild to hot day, temperatures in a closed car can exceed 120 degrees in minutes, creating a dangerous condition for any animal. Cracking a window or parking in the shade does not help.

Give your pet extra water. Hydration is crucial to avoid illness. Whether your pet is indoors or outdoors, be sure to fill their water bowls several times a day.

Protect your pet’s paws from hot surfaces. Walk your pet in the grass or the shade whenever possible. If the pavement is too hot for your bare hands or feet, it’s too hot for your pet’s paws.

Don’t overdo outdoor exercise. Often times, dogs don’t know when they need a break, so stop frequently for shaded breaks and offer plenty of water.

Take extra precaution with older dogs and dogs with shorter noses. Older dogs can be especially susceptible to higher temperatures, and certain breeds with shorter noses (like pugs and bulldogs) are at a greater risk of heatstroke.

Apply pet-safe sunscreen to your dog. Sunburn can affect pets the same way it affects humans – pain, peeling and skin cancer. Use a pet-safe sunscreen on unprotected areas, like the tips of the ears, the skin around the lips, and the tip of the nose. A good rule of thumb for sunscreen: If it’s safe for babies, it’s safe for your pets.

Don’t leave windows open while you’re pets are unattended. High-rise syndrome, when pets fall from a two-story building or higher, can be fatal. Don’t rely on window screens to keep your pet from falling.

When in doubt, stay indoors. Avoid staying outside during the hottest time of the day, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Know the signs of heatstroke in dogs and cats:

Heatstroke can be fatal if not treated quickly. Signs of heatstroke include:

Panting

Vomiting

Warm and dry skin

Rapid heartbeat

Staring or anxious expressions

Collapsing

Refusal to obey commands

Owners who suspect their pet may be experiencing heatstroke, or whose pet has fallen from a window, should call their regular veterinarian or DoveLewis immediately at 503-228-7281. In the meantime, they can help lower their pet’s body temperature by applying towels soaked in cool water to the hairless areas of the pet’s body (the tips and back of the ears, foot pads, belly, and inner thighs). Use a fan to help cool the animal while they are wet. Even if the pets seems to cool down, it’s still imperative to visit a veterinarian immediately, as temperatures often spike again or cool below a safe, normal temperature. Please note: Avoid completely immersing a pet in water, since heat cannot leave the body as effectively in this situation, and extreme changes in body temperature are dangerous to the pet’s health.

New law allows good Samaritans to break car windows to rescue animals and children

On June 22, a new law went into effect (HB 2732) that allows people to break into a car to save an unattended animal or child who appears to be in imminent danger. In 95-degree weather, the inside of a car can reach 114 degrees in less than 10 minutes and 129 degrees in 30 minutes.  An animal or child in this situation could suffer heatstroke, which can be fatal, in just a few minutes. Cracking windows and parking in the shade does not help. Good Samaritans who choose to rescue an animal or child must call law enforcement prior to breaking in and must stay near the car with the animal or child until police arrive at the scene.

Portlandia Nominated for 20th Emmy as Final Season Films in Rose City

Portlandia Nominated for 20th Emmy as Final Season Films in Rose City

Portland, OR. Portlandia is currently filming its eighth and final season. The sketch comedy series was recently nominated for three Emmy awards, bringing the total number of nominations to 20 and four wins. Created by Fred Armisen, Carrie Brownstein and director Jonathan Krisel, Portlandia explores a collection of eccentric misfits in the rose city. It debuted on IFC in January of 2011 and the final season will air starting in January of 2018.

Portlandia’s last season has the gravitational pull to draw a host of talented artists like Rasheda Jones who’s pictured on the set with Carrie Brownstein and Fred Armisen.

Guest stars are a staple of the series; one sketch last season featured members of the Trail Blazers.

The series won a prestigious Peabody Award in 2012. On hand to accept the award were Jonathan Krisel, Fred Armisen, Carrie Brownstein and executive producer Lorne Michaels. (Photo Credit: Anders Krusberg)

Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein have attended the Emmy awards in the past. This year, the show will be hosted by Stephen Colbert, and will air live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday, Sept. 17th at 5 p.m. PT. on CBS.

Foundation Helps “Store to Door” Support Portland Seniors and Adults with Disabilities

Foundation Helps “Store to Door” Support Portland Seniors and Adults with Disabilities

Portland, OR. Foundation is a boutique on Northwest 23rd Avenue that donates its profits, after expenses, to one local charity each quarter. This quarter’s beneficiary is Store to Door and the nonprofit hosted an event to kick off the partnership. Erin Riddle, Marcia Blasen, Elizabeth Lott, and Eumi Wymbs were on hand for the event. (Brendan Ffitch, photo credit)

Store to Door is a Portland non-profit that supports independent living for Portland area seniors and adults with disabilities by providing an affordable, personal, volunteer-based grocery shopping and delivery service. In 2018, Store to Door shopped and delivered more than 11,569 grocery orders to more than 682 clients across the Portland metro area.

“All of our nonprofit partners are very important to us,” said Holly Levow, co-founder and CEO of Foundation. “We couldn’t be more excited to help educate the community about their missions and to empower customers to give directly to these important organizations through something they would be doing anyway – shopping for clothes and accessories they love and feel great in.”

Foundation is located at 919 NW 23rd Avenue, Portland.

Foundation opened in August. The boutique gives 100 percent of profits, after expenses, to a featured non-profit partner. Store to Door will receive 100 percent of Foundation profits made from March 7th through June 5th.

“Store to Door is thrilled to be selected as an Impact Partner!” said Kiersten Ware, Store to Door Executive Director. “Foundation’s commitment to creating a more equitable world and their priority around women’s empowerment and health is very much aligned with our mission. 78% of Store to Door’s clients are women and 86% are low-income. Studies have shown that women over 75 are twice as likely to live in poverty than men. And the poverty rate among seniors of color in Multnomah County is 19% – almost twice the rate for the overall senior population. Store to Door is proud to partner with Foundation in its commitment to address these inequities so that all seniors can be nourished, included, and can live in dignity in the setting of their own choice.”

“When creating Foundation, we knew it was important to not only give with purpose but purchase with purpose,” said Chelsea Armstrong, co-founder of Foundation. To learn more about Foundation’s, upcoming events and its quarterly non-profit partners visit: www.foundationpdx.com.

From Foundation:

Foundation is a Portland-based boutique with a BIG mission: to champion a wide variety of social movements through a combination of fashion, philanthropy and community dialogue. Each quarter the women of Foundation research and carefully select a non-profit organization whose mission they strongly believe in. Foundation kicks off each partnership with an Impact event, an evening of fashion, philanthropy, food and drinks, that it hopes brings awareness to each organization’s mission. The community is invited to learn about Foundation’s non-profit partners, celebrate their great work and contribute to the cause by shopping the season’s best styles. Foundation donates 100 percent of profits and features ethical and socially conscious brands in its store.

From Store to Door:

Since 1989, Store to Door has supported independent living for Portland area seniors and people with disabilities by providing an affordable, personal, volunteer-based grocery shopping and delivery service. When the program began, five volunteers shopped for twenty-five local seniors. Now, 29 years later, Store to Door serves more than 680 clients more than 11,500 deliveries each year. As a volunteer-based organization, Store to Door relies on more than 1500 volunteers annually, who committed more than 17,000 hours of volunteer time last year.

Artists Thrive at 54th Annual Lake Oswego Festival of the Arts

Lake Oswego, OR. The spotlight is on artists every year at the annual Festival of the Arts in Lake Oswego. Visitors see artists like Lisa Jensen whose work was featured in the exhibit, Artist’s Vision: The Skies Opened. It was one of the exhibits that drew thousands of people to the community nine miles south of Portland last weekend.

More than 18,000 people attended the event this year to see more than 1,400 pieces of art from 10 states.

Cindi Lommasson demonstrates her unique techniques with Chinese Brush Painting in the Open Show Pavilion Tent during festival.

Young artists experiment with colored pencils similar to the ones used in the special exhibit entitled, “Beyond the Point” the fine art of colored pencil and graphite,” At Lakewood Center for the Arts. This year’s chosen medium was the pencil—both colored and graphite—dry and water-soluble.

Artist Dee Waggoner poses with her piece entitled “Serenity.” Her art was featured on the cover of the Festival 2017 program guide.

Colored pencil artist Richard Helmick, explains his technique to an art enthusiast.

The community nurtures artists. 39 artists received cash prizes from Festival Sponsors for their work within one of the 6 Festival art exhibits.

The festival wrapped up its run at the end of June, but the next exhibit at the Lakewood Center for the Arts will feature Corinna Campbell-Sack July 18 – September 11th.

DoveLewis Veterinary Emergency Hospital Offers Summertime Tips to Help Pets

Portland, OR. DoveLewis is encouraging pet owners to take extra care with their animals during the hot weather. Make sure your pets have access to plenty of shade and water. Your dog will not complain if he or she is suffering from too much sun, heat, exercise or thirst, so pay close attention.

On Memorial Day, DoveLewis treated a record-breaking number of patients – 95 animals in one day. Doctors saw a total of 253 that weekend.

Veterinarians have advice to prevent heatstroke:

Always use extreme caution if your pets are in the car. Signs of heatstroke include: panting, staring, warm dry skin, high fever, anxious expression, rapid heartbeat, refusal to obey commands, vomiting, wobbly gait, collapse. If you suspect your pet has heatstroke, call a veterinarian immediately. In the meantime, remove the animal from the heat and continuously wet down the animal thoroughly by spraying or pouring cool water over the animal. Make sure there is complete penetration of the hair coat and that the belly and groin areas are wetted down as well. Avoid complete immersion in water because heat cannot leave the body as effectively. If available use a fan to help cool the animal while it is wet. Often the pet will respond after only a few minutes of cooling, only to falter again with his temperature soaring back up or falling to well below what is normal. With this in mind, remember that it is imperative to get the animal to a veterinarian.

 

When it’s hot, exercise your pet early in the morning or later at night. Rinse dogs off after hikes and swims. Pay special attention to cleaning their ears and around their paw pads and toes. Also check eyes, nostrils, legs and footpads for ticks, debris or soreness.

Animals can get sunburned just like their humans. Sunburns can cause pain, peeling, and skin cancer. Animals with light colored or thin hair may be especially susceptible. When you go out, remember to use pet safe sunblock on unprotected areas like the tips of the ears, skin around the lips, and top of the nose. If the sunblock is safe for babies, it should be safe for your pet.

Beware of antifreeze–it is toxic even in very small amounts. During the summer, cars are more likely to over heat and may leak antifreeze – the bright green liquid found oozing from that car with the engine fan on. Antifreeze tastes sweet and may be inviting to pets.

Take caution in using pesticides. Some pets may be attracted to slug bait, mole poison, and systemic pesticides like Ortho and Bonide. Make sure pets stay away from areas with chemicals for several days after use. Flower bulbs can be toxic for pets. Tulip and narcissus bulbs can cause distress if ingested. Additionally, lilies are highly toxic to cats. Use caution with plants in and around your home.

As the 4th of July Holiday approaches experts remind pet owners that anxiety is the most common problem for pets around fireworks. One of the best ways to keep pets safe during fireworks season is to keep them inside. A radio or fan can provide soothing background noise to drown out the sound of fireworks.

Diverse 2017 Rose Festival Court is Out and About

Diverse 2017 Rose Festival Court is Out and About

Portland, OR. Fifteen Portland Rose Festival Princesses are making the rounds at local businesses, special events and celebrations. The 2017 court is a standout for its diversity. At a blessing by Archbishop Alexander Sample, he explained how the group has the opportunity to “honor diversity but celebrate our unity as a wonderful community of love, respect, and peace.” The 2017 Rose Festival court is made up almost entirely of young women of color. Five of the princesses were born outside of the country, representing Kenya, China, the Philippines and Ethiopia.

Court members were at the Delta Park Elmer’s Restaurant to help spread the word about “Rose Meals.” For each Rose Meal purchased at 12 participating restaurants through June 25th, Elmer’s will donate $1 to the Portland Rose Festival Foundation. Since the program began in 2010, Elmer’s has raised $86,907 for the Rose Festival Foundation.

The Rose Festival Court is comprised of up to 15 young women chosen from Portland Metro-area high schools. After their selection court members travel full-time 5 days a week for 5 weeks, visiting community events, business leaders, hospitals, senior living centers, youth organizations and civic groups. Court Members also receive one-on-one mentorship, a $3,500 scholarship provided by The Randall Group, and a complete wardrobe. The Rose Festival Court is presented by Unitus Community Credit Union.

The Rose Festival Queen is chosen from the Court and is crowned at the Queen’s Coronation. The Queen represents Portland and the Rose Festival for one year at appearances throughout the country and abroad. The Coronation will be held just before the Grand Flora Parade on June 10th.

On April 23rd, members of the Rose Festival Court made their first public appearance at the annual Blessing of Festival.
