Congratulations to the new Mr and Mrs Miller❤️ and thank you for having me!

Is it true that if we use cold water on heat stroke pets they will go into shock?

One of the most common things we still hear is that we can only use tepid water on a pet with heat stroke, incase they get some complications like hypothermic overshoot, peripheral vasoconstriction hindering a cooling response, and cardiogenic shock...

We have heard not to use cold water in case it causes shock... this rarely happens!

But guess what? In a recent study over 26% of dogs presented with heat stroke died, with flat faced breeds making up nearly half of heat stroke cases seen in the study.

You should:

💧Get someone to call the local veterinary practice and tell them you're going to travel down with a heat stroke patient
💧Pour, hose or if possible immerse the pet in very cold water (this should obviously be done under constant supervision, ensuring the head is fully above water and immersion should not be attempted if the animal is too large, or you are unable to do so without hurting yourself)
💧NB: If using a hose pipe, make sure it has run through until cold, as they can often contain water that is extremely hot in the tubing initially
💧Do not drape in towels and leave them in situ. Keep the cold water flowing.
💧Move to a cool, shaded area
💧Prepare to transport to vets in a cold, air conditioned car

In studies they found that:

🌅International consensus from sports medicine organisations supports treating EHS with early rapid cooling by immersing the casualty in cold water.
🌅Ice-water immersion has been shown to be highly effective in exertional heat stroke, with a zero fatality rate in large case series of younger, fit patients.
🌅Hyperthermic individuals were cooled twice as fast by Cold Water Immersion as by passive recovery.
🌅No complications occurred during the treatment of three older patients with severe heat stroke were treated with cold‐water immersion.
🌅Cold water immersion (CWI) is the preferred cooling modality in EHS guidelines and the optimal method applicable to UK Service Personnel
🌅Studies suggest using either ice-water or cold-water immersion

The best intervention is PREVENTION, but if you find yourself with an animal with heat stroke, using cold water either by pouring, hosing or ideally (if safe) immersion then this may help reduce their temperature to safe levels while you transport to a veterinary practice.

Spot the spaniel🤭👀

Have a good weekend! I'm working a very exciting day tomorrow and can't wait to share with you😍

Mr hates being rained on, but absolutely LOVED being at the river this morning😍💦 He's a summer boy🌞

"It's beside youuu" Oh no it isn't OH YES IT IS🤡🤣💦

Very happy with my newest purchase... well, update! I already have a poorly paws kit, but after couple of years of getting swung about, dragged through woodlands, covered in mud, rain, slobber.. you name it.. thought I'd treat myself🤣
paws first aid kits are small compact kits that can be easily carried around. Owner / professional friendly. It comes with a QR code for interactive first aid, helping you help them❤️

Definitely check them out!

The kit comes with tick removers, but I wanted to make sure I had them in every bag, compartment, and crevice🤣

To the riverrrr➡️💦

18/06/2024

Well, that's today quite literally TICKed off!🤢
Please, please, please make sure your babe's tick treatment is up to date and effective whether you use natural alternatives or chemicals❤️
As much as I try to give them a comb through like a chimp after our adventures, these little buggers are hard to spot and easy to miss, so please make sure to keep an eye out yourselves! Tick season is a go-go!

Big loves ###x

🥳💖AUNTIE NATTIE'S TURNED 2 YESTERDAY💖🥳

My girl, this one is for you! If it wasn't for you, this would never have happened, and I wouldn't be here 2 years down the line with so many babes for best friends. It's been a big adjustment learning to do this without you, 8 months down the line I'm still figuring it out, but I know you're there with me on every walk and adventure and that you knew I'd be okay with all the love and fun the others bring to every single day to get to this point.... 2 whole years baby🥳
2 years of so much laughter, huggles, big happy smiles, adventures, and I don't even want to know how many p**p bags🤣

To all of you lovely hoomans who trust me with your darlings, thank you for another year of making this love of mine possible.. I'm looking forward to another year working towards some goals, making a few little changes, but mostly continuing to have the best day every day🐶🥰

So much love,

Auntie Nattie ###

Changed it up this weekend.. no dogs!! This weekend, it was all about ferrets, birds, the most handsome cat, and fish! I had a great time, and apparently, I made a bloody good climbing frame too!🤣 I fell in love instantly and had to keep dragging myself out of the pen with the ferrets and aviary with the birds💖 Mr Kitty became my shadow in no time, he's a nervous lil bean but after a little while of me just existing in the house he soon came round and was full of love, cheekiness and followed for some fuss, super snuggly boy💙

Honestly, animals... I don't know what we did to deserve them, but everyday I am grateful for them❤️

Another weekend spent with this gorgeous girl, Lynford fun with our friend yesterday and a sunny beach trip today🤩 she was quite enjoying sitting on my lap having huggles and making me equally as muddy🤣
