Feeding tubes are a life-saving part of patient management when pets are unable to eat and medical management has not been effective. Here we see Baloo with an oesophagostomy tube placed under general anaesthesia on the left side of the neck. These tubes are comfortable for the pet, relatively quick and easy to place and remove, and have a bore size that is easy for liquid critical-care diets to move down. Owners can readily use them at home too, which means the pet can often be managed at home which helps their recovery. 😽👩‍⚕️👏🏻

Poor Ourson has a sore bottom! A**l sac abscess is a common problem seen in dogs, thought to be caused by initial impaction of the a**l sac, followed by colonisation by bacteria, infection and abscessation. The sac swells and ruptures to the skin surface, releasing pus and blood. Most cases can be managed medically, some may benefit from flushing and surgical debridement. Get well soon Ourson! 🐶 💖

Our wonderful nurses are always willing to help. Here we can see RVN Melissa performing an ultrasonic dental cleaning for one of our canine patients, supported by RVN Libby monitoring anaesthesia. Veterinary practices are increasingly utilising the experience and knowledge of their nurse teams to support and provide services within the clinic setting. 👩‍⚕️ 👏🏻

In-house cytology specimen from a male canine patient with a pe**le discharge and irritation. We can see numerous neutrophils (inflammatory cells with a segmented purple-staining nucleus) and bacteria (small purple dots), some of which are within the neutrophils. We made a diagnosis of balanoposthitis (infection of the p***s and sheath) and an antiseptic wash provided for the owner to apply. Taking samples is vital to get a clarity on a patient’s symptoms, so appropriate treatment can be prescribed. 🔬 🦠

Here’s a postcard from Mango on the beach at Laytown in Ireland 🇮🇪! We helped Mango get there by officially administering her tapeworm treatment, which keeps the nasty parasite Echinoccocus multilocularis out of the country. At Whisker & Woof, we are able to offer export services for our clients and their pets to all the far-flung places in the world. We take pride in doing the important paperwork properly to make sure your pet arrives safely and the process is as stress-free as possible 💪🏻📝.

Our Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Practice Standards visit is next week! Veterinary practices have the option to gain accreditation from the RCVS that proves their clinical work and processes meet a required standard. We are hopeful we will gain the highest level possible for a general practice premises. The team have been working very hard behind the scenes to prepare for the visit, and show that Whisker & Woof deserves to gain accreditation. Here we can see Laura and Jodie collaborating together on a protocol to make sure our in-house laboratory is as accurate and efficient as possible. Well done Team! 🤓🧪👏🏻

I’m at the London Vet Show for two days this week, an annual CPD event for the veterinary profession held at ExCel, London. It’s an absolutely fantastic opportunity to learn the latest clinical updates and developments during lectures, to meet the exhibitors showcasing new and exciting equipment, and to catch-up with friends and colleagues past and present. At Whisker & Woof we are constantly innovating and growing, making sure that your pet is receiving the very best care. The practice is open as usual, and the team are ready to help. Mark is your clinician today, a highly experienced vet with three RCVS Certificates in Medicine, Cardiology and Surgery and a Fellowship of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons. You simply won’t find a more capable vet out there. On a personal level, I can’t help but look at my delegate badge that says “Practice Owner, Whisker & Woof” and be filled with an overwhelming sense of pride and achievement. In many ways, when I read that, it feels like the end of something, but really it’s just the beginning ☺️😀
