🐾 Meet Ruby 🐾

Ruby is a 1 year old Golden Retriever who visited our Sutterton Hospital yesterday.

Ruby had a very sore and swollen hind foot, although at first glance you wouldn't know there was anything wrong, she was such a happy bouncy girl, she just wanted fuss!

Ruby was anaesthetised for our vet Sanne to be able to examine the foot thoroughly and see if there was a foreign body. (A foreign body is classed as anything external that has entered the body). After exploring the foot, Sanne found a nearly 4cm long grass seed that was the culprit of the sore foot!

Once Ruby recovered from her anaesthetic she was back to her lively bouncy self, which made taking a photograph very difficult! As you can see she loves a belly rub! ❤️

🌱INFORMATION ON GRASS SEEDS🌱

Grass seeds are small, pointy seeds that are attached to the tops of long grass stems. They're often found in meadows and woodland during the summer months, and they are a problem to dogs because they can easily brush off into their fur during walks.

Grass seeds have very sharp ends, so although they're tiny, if they become trapped in your dog’s fur, they can burrow down and pierce their skin. They can also get stuck in your dog’s paws, ears, eyes or nose. If your dog becomes injured by a grass seed, it can be very painful. In rare cases, grass seeds can go under the skin and travel to other areas of your dog’s body, such as their chest. Once they get under the skin, they can become difficult to find.

🌱❗️TOP TIP❗️🌱
It's a good idea to check your dog's feet and ears for grass seeds after exercise, especially if you have walked through areas with long grass.

🌱❗️IMPORTANT❗️🌱
If you think your dog has a grass seed injury, contact us on 01205 345345 for advice.

Ruby was the loveliest girl and made us all smile and laugh during her visit due to her being so happy! We hope you are now feeling better Ruby ❤️

As the UK enters a four-day hot weather warning, here’s a guide on when you should and shouldn’t walk your dog in the heat.

Remember, a dog has never died from skipping a walk, but dogs have died from heat stroke.

How is your dog coping with the heat?

24/06/2024

☀️❗️🐶 REMEMBER YOUR DOGS 🐶❗️☀️

Whilst we are enjoying the sunshine our canine companions may be struggling, they may not show you straight away as they want to please you and follow your lead.

Please stop and think before going for a walk, before going out in the car, before encouraging play and before leaving them alone outside or in a hot room. Assess each situation and keep your dog safe. It really is not worth the risk.

Enjoy your summer with your best friend, be safe!

Please take a minute to read and understand the information on the posters.

If you are concerned your dog may be suffering from heat stroke, please call us immediately on 01205 345345.
