Fun Fact Friday 💫

Dalmatian puppies are born with pure white coats and develop their spots within 10 to 14 days of birth.

Most of their spots develop after three to four months, but they can continue to develop until they are around 18 months old.

No two Dalmatians have the same pattern.

The number, size, and pattern of spots are predetermined by genetics. Each spot is a cluster of pigmented hair.

Patient of the week 💫
Charlie is one of our favourite regularly clients coming in every couple of weeks for his Cytopoint injection.

Cytopoint provides long-lasting itch relief for dogs with allergic dermatitis or atopic dermatitis

Cytopoint works like your dog's own immune system to relieve environmental allergic dog itch. It blocks the protein that sends signals that trigger itch, so the constant scratching can stop.

It lasts for 4-6 weeks but is recommended to be done monthly.

Tip Tuesday - Tick Prevention 💫

Garfield came into the clinic today with multiple ticks being found on him.

It is important to make sure your pets are on flea and tick prevention all year round.

Some tick prevention products include
•Nexgard spectra
•Bravecto
•Advocate
There are many other brands available.

Tick season is between August and March however tick paralysis cases are often reported outside these times so pets living in tick areas should be on tick prevention year round, especially in the warmer climates.

We have 4 types of ticks in Australia with the Paralysis tick being the most dangerous.

Signs Of Tick Paralysis
Early signs:
• A change in voice; the bark or meow may sound different
•Loss of appetite (this does not happen in all cases)
• Vomiting
•weakness in back legs

Later signs:
• Wobbliness in the back legs.
• Excessive salivation and vomiting is not uncommon.
• Panting, progressing to loud breathing, even grunting noises
• Many dogs will exhibit a moist cough and breathing problems

If your pet is experiencing any of these symptoms take them to a vet immediately.
