🌟 Is Your Dog Suffering From Allergies? 🌟

Just like us, our dogs can experience allergies that cause them discomfort. At Taggerty Vet Clinic, we know how heartbreaking it can be to see your pet suffer. Allergies are more common than you might think, and the signs can sometimes be subtle.

Common Symptoms of Dog Allergies:

Constant itching or scratching
Red, inflamed skin or hot spots
Sneezing or coughing
Watery eyes
Ear infections or frequent head shaking
Paw licking or chewing
If your dog is showing any of these symptoms, they could be suffering from allergies. If you think we could help you and your pooch reach out to us at Taggerty Vet Clinic for advice and treatment. We’re here to help you get your dog feeling happy and comfortable again.

📞 Call us at 0403012996 to schedule an appointment!

Laminitis, a painful and potentially debilitating condition affecting the hooves of horses, has been on the rise due to recent rain and the subsequent lush grass growth. Excessive consumption of high-sugar grasses can trigger laminitis, causing inflammation and damage to the sensitive laminae within the hoof. This can lead to severe pain, lameness, and in extreme cases permanent damage or euthanasia. Horse owners should be vigilant during periods of rapid grass growth, monitoring their horses closely for early signs of laminitis such as reluctance to move, hoof heat, and a characteristic rocked back stance. Preventative measures include restricting access to rich pastures, using grazing muzzles, managing diet carefully to avoid excessive intake of carbohydrates and sugars and regular farrier care. If you require assistance with managing laminitis book an appointment with Dr Rebecca Parth BVSc on 0403 012 996.

🌟 Winter Woes: Navigating Arthritis with Your Pets! 🌟

Hey there, pet pals!

As the chill of winter sets in, it's important to pay extra attention to our furry friends, especially those dealing with arthritis. Yep, you heard that right—those achy joints can act up even more when the temperature drops!

At Taggerty Vet Clinic, we've seen how winter can be a real pain in the joints for our furry companions. Here's the lowdown on why arthritis tends to flare up when the temperature starts falling:

1. Cold Conundrum: Just like us humans, pets with arthritis can feel the cold in their bones. And let's face it, nobody likes feeling chilly!

2. Stiffness Sets In: When it's cold outside, joints can stiffen up, making movement even tougher for our pets. That's why you might notice your fur baby moving a bit slower during those frosty winter days.

3. Less Activity: With shorter days and colder temperatures, pets tend to spend more time indoors lounging around. Less activity means joints can become stiffer and more painful.

4. Slippery Surfaces: Slipping and sliding around can put extra stress on already achy joints.

But fear not, pet parents! There are plenty of ways to help your furry friends weather the winter with ease:

1. Keep things cozy indoors with soft bedding and warm blankets.
2. Make sure your pet stays active with gentle indoor exercises like fetch or interactive toys.
3. Consider adding joint supplements or medications to your pet's routine to help ease discomfort.

And of course, lots of love and snuggles are always in season!
If you notice your pet struggling more than usual with arthritis symptoms this winter, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're here to lend a helping paw and make sure your furry friends stay comfy and cozy all season long.

Stay warm and fuzzy,

The Taggerty Vet Clinic Crew 🐾
