How To Recognise Dangerous Heat For Dogs

Summer heat doesn't just make your dog uncomfortable - it can lead to serious health issues. The first step in prevention is being able to recognise the dangers that excessive heat can pose.

Heatstroke in Dogs

Heatstroke is a condition that occurs when your dog's body temperature rises above the normal range, usually due to excessive heat and humidity. Because dogs only have a few sweat glands (in their paw pads and around their noses) they cant regulate their temperature like we can by sweating. The main way they cool down is by panting. If they can't cool themselves quickly enough by panting, their body temperature rises above the normal range resulting in hyperthermia.

Signs your dog may be experiencing heat stroke

🐾Agitation or restlessness

🐾Excessive panting or difficulty breathing

🐾Drooling

🐾High body temperature

🐾Reddened gums (may progress to purple or blue)

🐾Increased heart rate

🐾Loss of consciousness or uncoordinated movements

🐾Vomiting and diarrhoea (may contain blood)

🐾Muscle tremors

🐾Seizures

How to Respond if You Suspect Heatstroke

If you notice any of the above signs, act immediately:

🐶Call the Vet: This is a medical emergency that requires immediate professional attention.

SASH are open 24/7 and are located at 99 Rundle St Kent Town - 8528 7122

🐶Cool Your Dog Down: Remove them from the hot environment and cool them down by wetting their body (avoid their face and inside ears). Do not use icy cold water, or ice baths. Aiming a fan at them while they are wet can help them to cool down.

🐶Provide Water: Offer cool, not icy, water for your dog to drink but don't force it.

🐶Transport to Vet: Even if your dog appears to recover, heatstroke can have delayed effects and is life threatening. Take them straight to a vet to be checked.

It's important to take your furry friend for a walk early morning and late at night if needed, remembering to check the temperature of the walking surface by placing the back of you hand down for at least 5 seconds, if its too hot for your hand its too hot for their paws.
Where possible keep them inside.

Stay cool everyone. 😎

Happy Veterinary Nurse Day to all our wonderful girls at Payneham Veterinary Centre.
We are so incredibly lucky to work with such a kind, caring and compassionate team.
Our days are long, lunch breaks are short and toilet breaks very few and far between, but we love what we do and wouldn't have it any other way!

Today we thank you!
❤️❤️❤️

🎊 August is dental month!🎊

With our pets being fed a varied diet now more than ever it's important to keep a close eye on their teeth and gums.

Starting good dental habits from an early age is key in helping prolong the onset of dental disease in both dogs and cats.
Mechanical chewing is the best action to keep the teeth and gums healthy with Greenies, raw meety bones and dental foods being some of the options that can be incorporated into a balanced diet.

For pets who won't or are unable to chew, there is a range of gels, brushes, water additives and powders available that can also help slow the progression of dental disease.

✨️Throughout the month of August we will be offering FREE nurse dental checks. Please call the clinic on 8362 0831 to book in a time. ✨️

This little dog was booked in for a dental scale and polish. You can see by her back molars, she is a good chewer. However her canines and incisors are showing signs of tartar build up. As she is only 3 years old , her mum wants to ensure her teeth are kept in good condition as they have to last her many years yet!

🌼Spring has sprung early!!

Did you know our canine companions can also experience symptoms of allergies just like us.

Have you noticed...

*They are itching more?
*Nibbling and licking their feet?
*Recurrent ear infections?

These can be some of the signs of allergies and like us, this causes discomfort and distress.
There are many options available to help manage these symptoms ranging from shampoos, topical applications through to monthly treatments.
To help keep them comfortable and happy as we head towards spring, please feel free to call the clinic and discuss any concerns you may have and options that may be suitable.

💕This delightful bundle of energy came bouncing in for the monthly cytopoint injection to keep the itchies at bay. With some bribing, we finally managed a photo!💕

💜Happy Vet Nurse Day!!💜

🌷Care, support and often play. Grooming, clipping and then off for an x-ray.
Cleaning, preparation and vital stats. Dogs, rabbits, birds and cats.
Wounds, cuts, lumps and bumps, Bandaged, bathed and cleaned right up.
Stitching, sewing and sometimes pins,
healing and helping with everything.
Minor, major or just a friendly chat about the puppy that chews or your mischievous cat.
Sometimes sadly putting a pet to sleep, but comforting their owner with memories to keep.
Respect, dignity and compassion to all.
The big pets, the furry pets and even the small.
All in the day of being a vet nurse, easing the pain, offering advise and helping with birth.
New life, old and all in between.
Through the eyes of a vet nurse all this can be seen.🌷

Happy international Vet Nurse Day to the amazing wonderful vet nurses out there but especially our wonderful nurses at Payneham Veterinary Centre!

Thank you for the long hours, lack of toilet breaks and mostly to the utmost dedication that is shown to every single patient that comes through the front door.
We are lucky to have such an amazing team ❤️

Happy Mothers Day to all the furr mummas out there. ❤

A poem from the furr babies..

Thank you for the food you bring, and for my little squeaky thing.
Thank you for your friendly talks, and when you change my litter box.
Thank you for the naps we share, and putting up with my tuffs of hair.

Thank you for my daily walks, and not being mad when I eat some socks.
You always bring home things to chew and still clean up my awful poo.

You fluff my bed and brush my furr, you clean my teeth and calm my grrrr.

You'll always have my loyalty up to the bitter end because after all it's plain to see you are my very bestfriend ❤

A little advise to help avoiding an emergency visit this Easter:

CHOCOLATE 🍫: Most of us know chocolate is extremely toxic for our furry friends. With chocolate bound to be in abundance be sure to keep it out of reach and be mindful while doing Easter egg hunts. If Ingested please watch out for - vomiting, diarrhoea, excitability, increased thirst, racing heart, muscle tremors and seizuring.

HOT CROSS BUNS🐰: Sultanas, raisins and grapes are known for causing serious diarrhoea and vomiting and can result in kidney failure.

If enjoying a BBQ 🌭 with family and friends be mindful how many BBQ treats our furry friends receive. Excess fatty treats can quickly lead to gastro enteritis and pancreatitis. Things to watch out for include - vomiting, painful abdomen ( dogs may appear uncomfortable or have a hunched back) diarrhoea and loss of appetite.

If travelling please familiarise yourself with local vet clinics should your pet become unwell or contact one of the above clinics for advice.

We wish you all a very Happy and safe Easter. ❤️

Please like, Share and comment with pics, we would love to see all our furry friends enjoying this much need time off with their families.
