Two big health risks arise with the warmer temperatures - the risk of hyperthermia and burnt paw pads.

If you’re concerned about your pet suffering heatstroke, please refer to our previous post.

When taking your pets for a walk or leaving them outside, please consider how hot the ground can become. Particularly the pavement, tarmac and asphalt can heat up pretty quickly.

If you are able to place the back of your hand onto the ground and leave it there for 5 seconds, it is safe for your pet to walk on.
If the ground is too hot for you, it’s too hot for your pet!

Symptoms of burnt paw pads
- Limping
- Refusing to walk
- Discolouration of the paw pads
- Visible blistering
- Paw pads are swollen and bright red in colour
- Areas with missing skin
- Excessive licking of the paw pads

If your pet has mild symptoms, you can place them into a body of cool water to submerge the paws and cool the area down. Alternatively you can apply a cold compress to the paw pads (please be sure that the temperature is cool, not cold).

If your pet has symptoms of severe burns, please take them to your nearest veterinary clinic.

If you have any other questions, please call the clinic on 9525 8888.

As the weather is heating up it’s important to consider the health effects of hyperthermia on our furry friends.
Heatstroke can damage your pet’s internal organs and can be deadly if left untreated.

Symptoms in dogs and cats can include:
- Excessive panting and salivation
- Breathing distress
- Agitation and restlessness (pacing back and forth)
- Very pale and bright red gums, the tongue may be also bright red
- Vomiting and/or diarrhea
- Signs of confusion or delirium (not responding to surroundings the same way they normally do)
- Dizziness, lethargy, weakness
- Sudden collapse
- Seizures
- Coma

Cats can show milder symptoms than dogs, but this does not reduce the severity of heatstroke if left untreated.

In order to prevent heatstroke, you can ensure that your pet:
- Has adequate air ventilation and a cool space to live in
- Has plenty of water
- Does not over-exercise on hot days, ideally walks should be done in the early morning or late afternoon when the temperatures have dropped
- Do not leave your pet unsupervised on extremely hot days
- Is not left alone in a parked car (unless the car has automated air conditioning)

What to do if your pet is showing mild symptoms:
- Take your pet inside and spray with cool (not cold) water. Using cold water can cause shock.
- Saturate towels or blankets with lukewarm to cool temperature water and wrap up your pet
- Place your pet into an air conditioned room
- Place a towel wrapped ice pack onto the inside thigh of your pet (onto the femoral artery)

If your pet is displaying moderate to severe symptoms or they are getting worse, please take them to your nearest veterinary clinic.

Pets that are at higher risk of developing heatstroke include brachycephalic breeds (dogs and cats with shorter muzzles such as pugs, frenchies, bulldogs, boxers, Persians and exotic shorthair cat breeds), young and geriatric pets as well as those with heart or lung disease.

If you have any other questions, please give our clinic a call on 9525 8888.

**Adopted**

In recent days we have had a little survivor brought to the clinic. After initially hiding in the engine of a car, this little critter got more than she bargained for as the unsuspecting driver made her morning rounds.
It wasn’t until the little meows finally cut through the rumble of the car and she was finally located. Too far to reach, it took the lunch of another passerby and the Fire Brigade to coax out what now looked like a grey, wet, shaking bundle of fur.
Two beautiful ladies brought the kitten named Kia (named after the car) to our clinic where she has been wormed and examined. Besides the initial shock of the experience, Kia was completely unharmed.
Over the past few days we have watched Kia’s personality unfold. She is curious, affectionate and belly rubs have become her kryptonite. She is still weary of other cats and dogs, but with some patience she would grow to love a family with other pets.
As Kia is only approximately 7 weeks of age and unvaccinated, she is not ready to go to a home yet, but we are hoping to get the word out so she can be adopted soon.

Huge Congratulations to our newest graduates of Puppy Pre School, October 2024.

This group of puppies had so much fun playing and learning throughout the course, showing speedy and accurate understanding of the training from their owners.

Ghost, Oakley, Bella, Reggie and Lola had shown great connection and chemistry from week 1 to week 4 with both each other and with their owners.

Scott our Trainer really enjoyed seeing the dedication from the owners in building strong connections with their puppies and gaining results from good training techniques.
