16/08/2024

Over the past two weeks we have seen a shocking increase in the number tick paralysis patients coming into clinic. 🙊

Paralysis tick toxin is extremely dangerous to our furry friends and is completely preventable. It is important to note that your pet being indoors is not a preventive. Ticks can be living in your own backyard and have a nasty habit of hitching a ride on your shoes/clothing, making a way into your home. 😬

We have a range of parasite prevention options in clinic. We welcome everyone to come in and have a chat with one of our friendly nurses to find a product that suits your pet best. ❤️

Please keep your pets safe and do not hesitate to come into clinic if you believe you have found a tick on your pet. 🙏🏼

✨ Meet Meili ✨

A brave and beautiful feline who came into our clinic with an aggressive form of cancer affecting both of her ears (squamous cell carcinoma). Her journey has been one of resilience and strength, showcasing the incredible spirit of our furry friends.

Upon diagnosis, our dedicated team at The Pines Vet knew that immediate action was necessary to give Meili the best chance at a healthy and happy life. After careful consideration and planning, Meili underwent a bilateral pinnectomy, a surgery to remove both ears.

While it was a challenging procedure, Meili's recovery has been nothing short of remarkable. She has adjusted wonderfully to her new life with fewer ears but just as much personality! Her playful nature, affectionate purrs, and zest for life remain unchanged, reminding us every day why we love what we do.

We are overjoyed to see Meili thriving and enjoying her days with the same vibrant energy she had before. Her story is a testament to the power of expert veterinary care and the resilience of our beloved pets.

Thank you to all our clients for trusting us with the care of your precious fur babies. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of pets like Meili.

Little Shadow here decided to take it upon himself to indulge in his dad’s birthday goodies… 🍫

One whole packet of wagon wheels later and he found himself in the care of Dr Rochelle and our nursing team. Chocolate is toxic to dogs and for a small dog like Shadow the amount of chocolate in a packet of wagon wheels would have caused more than a simple stomach ache. Lucky for Shadow, his mum was on it and brought him straight down so we could help him bring them back up. 🤮

We asked Shadow for a comment on the matter and all he had to say was he has no regrets. 😎

22/07/2024

We had an absolutely wonderful day last Sunday at Dogs On The Green! ☀️

Thank you to everyone who came out and stopped in to say hello. 👋 We look forward to seeing in clinic in the future 😄💖

❤️‍🩹 PATIENT OF THE WEEK ❤️‍🩹

🦋 Lizzie 🦋

We have seen this stunning Cocker Spaniel since she was just a wee baby! She quickly became one of Nurse Larnie’s VIPs that comes in for regular cuddles and health checks. 🩵 🩺

Over time little Lizzie had developed impacted a**l glands so we brought a specialist in and had them removed. This procedure will bring her so much relief so she can live in comfort and not fear for butt squeezes anymore! 🍑

She’s recovering at home with her beautiful parents, we will see her again on Monday to have her pain relief assessed and talk about removing that e-collar 😁 🏥 👩🏻‍⚕️

Thank you Lizzie and parents for letting us help you 🖤🐾

Happy Saturday 🐾

We would just like to remind everyone that all patients entering the clinic need to be adequately restrained. 🦮

This means either on a lead with a collar fitted correctly or in a cat carrier. 🐈‍⬛ The best way to know if your pets collar is fitted correctly is if you can comfortably fit two fingers under the collar without excess space (Special collars can also be purchased if your pet had a particularly skinny head such as the sight hound breeds).✌🏼

This is to help ensure the safey of your pet when visiting the vet 🏥

🐾🍑 A**l Glands 🍑🐾

Now let’s get to the bottom of this…

What are they?
A**l glands are two small sacs located just inside your pets a**s. Typically these sacs are drained during defecation 💩 and serve as an aid in marking a cat or dogs territory. 👃🏼

Why are they such a problem?
Over time some pets and certain breeds have trouble expressing these glands themselves which caused the sacs to fill becoming quite sore and uncomfortable and in some cases even bursting.💥

How can I prevent this from happening?
Some signs that your pet is having trouble with their a**l glands are…
Scooting 🍑
A foul fish smelling odor coming from your pet 🐟
Chewing at your pets behind 🐩
When you begin to notice these symptoms it is best to head into clinic for one of our nurses to express the a**l glands manually and prevent a rupture.

What do I do if this is an ongoing problem?
Regular manual expressions are best to prevent discomfort along with a high fibre diet. However if they are becoming a regular problem we are able to remove the glands all together. Miss Poppy (pictured below) had this procedure done just last week as she was having a lot of trouble with her glands. She is instantly more comfortable and well on her way to recovery. 🐶

If you are concerned about your pets a**l gland give us a call on (07) 5665 7116 to book and an a**l glands expression with of of our lovely nurses 👩🏻‍⚕️

Bailey says: “😋 HAVE A TAIL WAGGIN’ WEEKEND!!! 🧡”

24/04/2024

You’ve heard of the red poppy but have you heard of the purple poppy?
The purple poppy was introduced in 2013 as a way to pay respect to our four legged and winged friends who fought along side us . You don’t hear their stories as often but animals continue to serve today in places like Afghanistan. On ANZAC day wear a purple poppy alongside your red poppy and take a moment to remember and honour those animals who stood by us and still do. 🐾

“Lest we forget”

22/04/2024

Happy Monday everyone 🐈🐕

We have some very exciting things happening in the clinic this coming week. So stay tuned we will be announcing something very soon 🎉

Also a reminder that we will be closed this Thursday for the ANZAC day public holiday. 🫏

Have a ‘fur’tastic week everyone 🐾

12/04/2024

Happy “fur”tastic Friday 🎉

It’s been a busy week here for The Pines Vet with everything from dentals, puppy vaccines and grooming all the way to fractures, gastrointestinal upset and a couple of patients that were a little too interested in the left over Easter chocolate. 🩺🩸💉

Friendly reminder that if you any remaining chocolate please keep it out of reach from your pets. 🍫

The “paw”cast for the weekend is bright and sunny. Leads out, shoes on have a fantastic weekend. 🐾☀️

So you’ve heard of intestinal worms… 🪱 but have you heard of heartworm? 🫀

Heartworm is caused by a nasty little parasite called dirofilaria immitis which when fully developed makes itself at home in pets hearts and lungs.

So how does a pet contact heartworm???
Mosquitoes…
A mosquitoes ingests larvae from an infected animal and then bites a healthy animal passing on the larvae. Without prevention the healthy animal becomes infected. 🦟

So what can you do to prevent this?? We offer both monthly, 3 monthly and yearly heartworm preventatives, just give us a call on 07 5665 7116 and one of our friendly nurses will be happy to help you select an option that works best for you.

🦷 DENTAL DISEASE 🦷 You would have heard our vets mention it at least once a year. We promise we're not pestering you unnecessarily... dental disease is one of the most common medical conditions seen by veterinarians, with over 80% of dogs over the age of 3 being affected. Signs of early dental disease can be very subtle, so owners are often unaware of the condition of their pet's teeth. It is up to us to uncover this hidden and painful condition at the time of their yearly vet visits. The video below is something we encounter regularly. Pets who do not recieve regular dental care throughout their life are at risk of developing severe periodontal disease like this. The extreme build up of tartar and calculus have impacted the gums and supporting bone structures of the pet's mouth, resulting in painful & rotting teeth. The majority of this patient's teeth were extracted as a result. The standards for pet care have increased significantly in recent generations, and ongoing dental care is something that needs to be considered when purchasing a new pet. The combination of a high quality commercial diet, dental chews, teeth brushing, and yearly scale & polishes give your pet's teeth the best chance of remaining clean and disease free for the span of their life. We offer FREE dental checks year round. Our vets give your pet's mouth a thorough check, and provide you a quote for any dental care required. If you have an questions feel free to shoot us a DM or comment below!
