Mr socks joined us for his glucose curve recently🐾

A glucose curve is a commonly performed procedure with our diabetic patients which involves a series of measurements of blood glucose to determine the effectiveness of insulin

Here are 5 signs that your dog may be diabetic:

1. Drinking more than normal 💦
2. Urinating more than normal 🚽
3. Tiredness 💤
4. Sweet smelling breath 🍬
5. Poor eyesight 👁️

PYOMETRA 🐾👩🏼‍⚕️

Definition:
Pyomtra is an infection in the uterus which causes it to fill with pus and bacteria. This condition can be potentially life threatening and in most cases is considered a medical emergency

Symptoms:
- Excessive thirst 💦
- Vaginal discharge (not always present)
- Abdominal discomfort 😓
- Fever 🤒
- Lethargy 💤
- Reduced appetite🍴

Prevention:
The best way to prevent pyometra is to spay female cats and dogs. Removing the uterus by neutering completely eradicates the risk of pyometra

🍫 CHOCOLATE 🍫

Keep those Xmas chocolates out of your pets reach!
Chocolate is poisonous to pets, and dogs are usually the main culprits.

Chocolate contains a compound called theobromine which dogs and cats are unable to process properly. Theobromine acts as a stimulant leading to clinical signs of:
- vomiting and diarrhoea
- increased thirst/urination
- hyperexcitability/agitation
- rapid heart rate
- seizures

The darker the chocolate the higher the theobromine content therefore the more toxic it is. White chocolate is safe however it may cause gastrointestinal upset due to its high fat content.

🍇 GRAPES 🍇

Grapes and their dried fruits such as raisins, currants and sultanas (whether raw or cooked) are known to cause fatal kidney failure in dogs - so keep treats such as mince pies, puddings and cakes out of reach.

Even ingestion of just a few grapes is enough to cause severe illness so always consult your vet if your dog ingests any amount.

🧂SALT🧂

Homemade salt dough decorations are pretty but poisonous!

You might be decorating your this weekend, but Xmas decorations can be hazardous for inquisitive pets. Due to the high levels of salt needed to make salt dough, ingestion of just one of these homemade decorations is enough to cause serious poisoning. Symptoms can range from vomiting, diarrhoea, decreased appetite, lethargy, incoordination, excessive thirst or urination. In severe cases, tremors, seizures, coma, and even death are possible.

Please avoid putting these around your home at Xmas if you have pets

🎄DECORATIONS🎄

If you are decorating your this weekend beware of the potential dangers to your pet. Pets can be attracted to shiny lights, tinsel and baubles!

Swallowed or chewed decorations can lead to cuts or intestinal blockages, and chewed fairy lights can pose an electrocution risk.

🌹PLANTS 🌹

Many Yule time plants can be hazardous to pets if chewed - luckily in the majority of cases symptoms are mild and self-limiting and may include salivation, oral irritation and vomiting/diarrhoea.

To be on the safe side, keep plants out of reach of inquisitive pets and consult your vet if ingestion does occur.

🔋BATTERIES🔋

It's time to wrap those toys and gadgets - don't forget the batteries!

However, pets are inquisitive and may think nothing about swallowing batteries, which can cause significant damage to the mouth and gastrointestinal tract!

Large, chewed or punctured alkaline batteries often require intervention, and the lithium disc or ‘button’ batteries pose the greatest risk of all.

Always contact your vet if you think your pet may have ingested a battery.

🍬XYLITOL🍬

Could your good intentions be unintentionally harmful to your dog?

Xylitol is often used in baked goods around time in an effort to fight the festive flab. However, it is extremely toxic to dogs if ingested, even a small amount can be fatal. Xylitol (also known as E967) can be found in many products including sweets, baked goods, jams, peanut butter, dental hygiene products, chewing gum, etc....

Ingestion in dogs causes a rapid drop in blood sugar which can lead to lethargy, wobbliness, confusion, vomiting, collapse and tremors/seizures. Some dogs may also go on to develop acute liver failure. Cats luckily do not appear to be affected.

In case of ingestion get your dog to the vet ASAP!

💊MEDICATION💊

In the run up to Xmas, many of us may be reaching for the ibuprofen or paracetamol to cure a fuzzy head.

Make sure to keep human medication away from your pets - dogs and cats are very sensitive to the effects, much more so than us.

Many over the counter and prescription drugs, whilst beneficial for us, can be very harmful or even deadly to pets even in small doses. Always consult your vet for advice before giving any medication to your pet.
