Cherry eye (Prolpase of the Gland of the Third Eye Lid)
Cherry eyes appear as a growth at the corner of the eye, often raised and pink. The cause of the condition is not completely clear but has been suggested to be related to increased pressure. This problem is commonly seen in bracycephalic dogs including maltese, bull dogs, shih-tzu but can occur in other breeds as well.
A pocketing technique is used to hide/repair the gland. The risk of recurrence is approximately 1-2%.

A few of our team volunteered at the @gapnsw adoption day in Gregory Hills.
There were > 20 greyhounds, and over a dozen were adopted to their new forever homes. We’re happy to be able to support the program and unite new owners with their furever friend.
Our team were busy introducing Bubbles, Jodie, Little John, Percy and Smurf. We were also able to provide some unexpected medical assistance to others.

Pepper's Amazing Recovery
Pepper presented to our hospital a few months ago for hind limb paralysis and was diagnosed with a slipped disc (IVDD - Intervertebral Disc Disease). To give context to the situation there are up to 5 grades for this disease and unfortunately she was grade 5.
What does this mean?
A patient with IVDD and grade 5 clinical status means they are paralysed with no sensation or deep pain to the back legs. This is the most severe form of this disease. Statistically speaking only 50% of patients recovery if surgery is performed within 48hours of the noted injury. Very few recover without intervention.
How was the problem diagnosed?
The diagnosis was made via physical examination with our vet which followed on with a CT scan of the spine.
What treatment did Pepper have?
Pepper had a very dedicated family that elected to perform surgery. After surgery she stayed in hospital for an extended period of time for physiotherapy and rehabiltation. Pepper continued to have physiotherapy at home once discharged but still has residual signs of spinal injury. She is however, able to self ambulate.
The videos are a few months apart and she is progressing well. We are hoping she makes a further recovery over time.

Bridie is one of very few dogs running around on not 1 but 2 artificial hips.
Bridie is a golden retriever, and some dogs within this breed are subjected to hip dysplasia a condition that results in poor conformation of the hip joint leading to arthritis and pain as they grow older.
After having 2 stages hip replacements @colytonvet, this has allowed her to return to being her normal active self.
We wish her well as she is moving overseas.

Today we say goodbye to our long term spinal surgery patient Boston as he has made a speedy recovery. From paralysed to now taking baby steps.
We set some obstacles but he prefers to just knock them down. In due course we expect him to get stronger day by day. Good luck Boston!!

This little girl fell 6 stories from an apartment block and has pushed through every moment of treatment. She’s gentle and sweet and has not complained at all!!
2 broken ankles later, hours of surgery and days in hospital she’s regaining her steps.

Our little feline friend saw Dr. Daisy and Nurse Cameron @colytonvet due to a fish hook penetrating through its little toe beans. It’s safe to say the little one is recovering well #cat #catvet #vet #fishhooks #colyton #colytonveterinaryhospital #colytonvet
🥰 Maggie 🥰
As much as we love having her around it’s time to go home. Maggie was with us for a broken leg however young pups grow and heal fast. We call them “healing machines”. Maggie should be all healed in about 4 weeks
