Symptoms of dental disease in our pets:

๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ Bad breath (Halitosis)
๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ Difficulty eating (although cats in particular are very resilient & will try to eat until they are in severe pain)
๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ Tartar build up
๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ Gingivitis (red or bleeding gums)
๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ Excessive drooling
๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ Swelling on a side of the mouth
๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ Wobbly teeth
๐Ÿฑ Reluctant to groom / a noticeable deterioration in coat quality
๐Ÿถ Head shaking

These are just a fraction of the most common symptoms of dental disease in our dogs & cats. Dogs & cats are incredibly resilient and will often continue to eat & drink until they are too painful to do so ๐Ÿค•

We always check your pets teeth & gums at routine examinations, however itโ€™s important you also keep an eye on them at home ๐Ÿ‘€

Weโ€™ve got an exciting webinar planned all about Dental Disease by Dr Alyson Bayly & Dr Gary Campbell so keep an eye out for the link to sign up ๐Ÿฆท

February is Dental Health awareness month ๐Ÿฆท๐Ÿชฅ

It is estimated that 1 in 8 dogs & 1 in 6 cats suffer from dental disease in the UK ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ

So what causes dental disease in our pets? As itโ€™s not quite the same as dental disease in people:

๐Ÿชฅ Poor dental hygiene
๐Ÿ‘ต๐Ÿผ Age
๐Ÿพ Breed of dog or cat
๐Ÿ” Diet
๐Ÿค• Trauma

These all often lead to plaque, tartar or gingivitis - which can contribute to advancing dental disease ๐Ÿพ

Next week weโ€™ll discuss the symptoms of dental disease in our furry friends ๐Ÿ˜ธ

How sweet is Meg giving us each of her paws? ๐Ÿพ

When Meg was just 8 weeks old, her owners were concerned she wasnโ€™t quite right. She was breathing a little quicker & was very quiet for a Labrador puppy ๐Ÿ˜ข

Following on from our last post, we discovered very quickly Meg was positive for lungworm, something weโ€™d never seen in such a young puppy! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

We treated Meg & her lungworm, she made a full recovery despite it being touch & go for a while. Sheโ€™s now a thriving 4yr old Labrador & the happiest girl ๐Ÿ˜

We are seeing more & more positive lungworm cases now than ever before, so itโ€™s incredibly important to keep on top of your pets preventative health care ๐Ÿชฑ

Nope theyโ€™re not positive Covid tests, these are positive lungworm snap tests ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿชฑ

We routinely test our patients before any form of surgery for lungworm (also known as Angiostrongylus vasorum) as it can cause blood clotting issues ๐Ÿฉธ

Lungworm is carried by slugs & snails, which means our dogs sometimes eat or lick them ๐ŸŒ

We recommend preventative parasitic treatment for lungworm as it can be serious for some dogs, particularly the young, elderly or immunocompromised ๐Ÿ‘ฆ๐Ÿผ

If you have any questions regarding preventative parasitic treatment or anything lungworm related, get in touch with the nursing team โ˜Ž๏ธ

Oh hello cutie ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ˜

Did you know we offer free monthly weigh & worms with our nurses for puppies? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿคฏ

This is so you can come in, have a chat to the nursing team, ask any questions you have & also, familiarise your new puppy with the vets so they learn itโ€™s not a scary place ๐Ÿพ

Plus - if youโ€™re on our healthy pet club, the flea & wormer is included in your monthly payments ๐Ÿ˜‰

๐Ÿฉธ Photos of blood!! ๐Ÿฉธ

Fern came in with a sudden onset of epistaxis (nosebleed - there really is a fancy word for everything! ๐Ÿ˜‚) after working on a shoot the day before.

She was sedated so we could have a look up her nostril to see if there was anything lodged up there. We could just see the tip of a sharp wooden twig which we managed to remove successfully! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

We canโ€™t imagine how uncomfortable that wouldโ€™ve been for her ๐Ÿคง

Fern was discharged with antibiotics & pain relief & signed off work for a short while to recover โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน
