Ticks can range in size from a few millimetres to over a centimetre in diameter, depending on their lifestage and how much blood they’ve ingested. An embedded tick will appear as a grey, brown or cream-coloured lump stuck firmly into the surface of your pet’s skin. The surrounding skin may be red and swollen. 🕷️

If you live in a tick-prone area, it’s best to invest in a tick removal tool (and of course, keep your pet up to date with year-round tick prevention!).

For more information on ticks including effective prevention, how to spot and remove them, and tick-related diseases, book an appointment for tick prevention advice. 🩺

Rain scald ☔️

Rain scald is a preventable condition seen in our larger animals. Rain scald It’s an
infection of the animal’s skin by bacteria found in soils, brought on by a change in
climate and prolonged exposure to being wet. The condition can be quite painful and
uncomfortable and is contagious through. Animals with rain scald around muzzle,
hooves and lips may begin to lose condition.

Attempting To help prevent;
- Provide shelter during wet seasons ☂️
- Protecting from insects🦗
- Clipping long coats and trying to keep clean (bathing with medicated shampoo)
- Isolate affected animals and disinfect grooming tools/rugs etc.
- Cleaning tack frequently
- Regular grooming🪮
- Balanced diet and nutrition

If your larger animal is affected by rain scald, contact us on 4061 2590 for an appointment.

Meet Chase 🥎

Chase was dumped down a creek with his siblings. He was infested with fleas and ticks and was scared of the human hand.

Since being in care, he has already come out of his shell and his confidence is growing every day.

Chase is
🐶Vaccinated
🐶Microchipped
🐶Flea, tick and worm treated

Chase has been fostered with two other dogs and adores their company.
He has been going to work with his foster mum and is becoming very well socialised with dogs of all sizes, cats and kittens and lots of people.

Chase’s adoption fee is $400. This includes the rest of his vaccines and desexing.

If you would like to meet Chase, send the Stray to Stay team a message! 🥰

While cats do occasionally vomit hairballs or eat too quickly, frequent vomiting isn't normal. If your cat vomits more than once a month, seems unwell, or you notice blood in the vomit, weight loss, or lethargy, it's time for a check-up. 🩺

Many conditions, from dietary issues to obstructions, IBD and kidney disease, can cause vomiting, so early detection is the key to successful treatment.

Book a vet appointment today if your cat’s been vomiting more than usual. Early checks can make a big difference.

Kennel cough is like the ‘common cold’, a condition caused by several different viruses and bacteria under the same umbrella term. Most dogs recover on their own within 1-3 weeks with rest and supportive care. 🐕

We only prescribe antibiotics if there's a secondary bacterial infection or your dog is at high risk of complications.

If you think your dog might have kennel cough, call us first before popping down to the clinic.

Anhidrosis

Anhidrosis is a condition which affects a horse’s ability to sweat sufficiently.
Horses lose 70% of their body heat through sweating, therefore, being unable to sweat
is a serious condition 💧. Anhidrosis can affect any age, breeds, coat, colour and gender.

What to watch for;
- Increased breathing🌬️
- Appearing distressed
- Lethargy
- Innapetant
- Hot to touch🔥
- Lack of or no sweat production
How you can help prevent;
- Provide shade and cool air (Fans/sprinklers on a timer etc.)❄️
- Exercise during cool parts of the day
- Hosing with cool water
- Contact your vet if you have any concerns

If you are concerned your horse may be suffering by Anhidrosis, contact our clinic, 4061 2590.

Canine cognitive dysfunction, or dog dementia, affects many senior dogs. Signs include disorientation, changes in sleep patterns, confusion, anxiety, and forgetting familiar people or routines.

While there's no cure, early diagnosis means we can implement management strategies, environmental modifications, and medications that may slow progression and improve quality of life. 💙

If you’ve noticed your senior dog acting differently, it’s best not to wait. Contact us today to book a senior health check and discuss your dog’s care options.

Senior Pet Month
 
Did you know at the age of seven, your dog or cat is considered SENIOR!
 
This November is Senior Pet month, in November we are making sure we shine a BRIGHT LIGHT on our senior companions. As your pet gets older, their healthcare requirements will need to adapt to their new needs. Older pets may need to visit the vet more often than younger pets to check in on any chronic medical conditions, and to check for any new medical conditions that could arise.
 
Here are a few of the health conditions that are common in old age:
    •    Arthritis
    •    Cancer
    •    Lumps and Bumps
    •    Dental Disease
    •    Heart Disease
    •    Kidney & Liver Disease
    •    Canine Cognitive Dysfunction
    •    Neurologic Conditions
 
We have senior health consults run by both our vets and by our nurses to help with any concerns or questions you may have. If you would like to book, call us on 4061 2590

Planning a holiday? Start preparing your dog for boarding early. Consider a pre-boarding visit so they can familiarise themselves with the environment.

📋 Book a check-up at the vet, particularly if their vaccinations, like kennel cough, aren’t up to date. If they are on medication, ensure you have a sufficient supply. Pack their favourite toy or blanket for comfort. If your dog has a special diet or health problem, communicate this clearly to the boarding facility.

Book your pre-boarding health check or vaccination update today!
