Oxnard Animal Safety Unit

Oxnard Animal Safety Unit Our mission is to promote health, safety, and welfare of pets and people in Oxnard. We are also here to protect your health.

The primary purpose of Oxnard Animal Safety Unit is to provide a wide variety of State mandated and City services relating to animal safety and animal protection. We promote and protect public safety through education and animal law enforcement. Our officers patrol the streets for animals allowed to roam at large, whether they are lost, injured or abandoned, that may create a public nuisance by destroying property, and causing injuries to themselves and others. Rabies is a disease that can be transmitted by an animal's saliva or skunk spray and can be carried by any warm-blooded animals, including humans. Rabies is fatal once the symptoms appear. Ventura County is a rabies-endemic area. There are half-a-dozen cases in wildlife every year. The danger is amplified, but not limited to, the County's rural areas. Vaccinating and licensing your animals will assure the control of rabies. Oxnard Animal Safety Officers are here to provide 24 hour/7 days a week service.

♨️ ¿Cómo regulan las mascotas las altas temperaturas? 🌡️

Aunque parezca contradictorio, el denso pelaje actúa como aislante natural contra el calor extremo. Sin embargo, como perros y gatos apenas sudan, su principal método para refrescarse es el jadeo, que expulsa aire caliente e inhala aire más fresco. 🌬️

El peligro llega con la humedad o las temperaturas extremas, cuando el jadeo no basta. Hay que vigilar señales de golpe de calor: jadeo excesivo, encías muy rojas, tambaleos o letargo. 👀

Ante cualquier síntoma, evita el agua helada y aplica paños húmedos en ingle, axilas y cuello mientras acudes al veterinario. 🏥

Para ayudarlos, asegúrales agua fresca y sombra siempre. Pasea solo a primera y última hora del día, y apoya tu mano en el suelo: si quema, lastimará sus almohadillas. 🏜️

En casa, los tapetes refrescantes o un ventilador serán sus grandes aliados. Además es útil cepillarlos a diario para eliminar el subpelo mu**to que retiene calor. No debes raparlos a cero, pues su piel quedaría expuesta a quemaduras solares. También es importante que jamás los dejes dentro de un espacio reducido sin aire, ni cinco minutos. ❗

Si aplicas estos consejos estarás ayudando mucho a tu mascota. Su bienestar en este clima tan caluroso depende de tu cuidado y cariño. 💗
