Grass awn removal #sheptonwellsvets #sheptonvets #wellsvets
Cody the labrador puppy, had a large lump come up under his chin, after some investigation and an ultrasound examination Vet Rosie found this tiny grass awn to be the cause of everything.
Check ours and Buddy's Rural Animal Rescue BRAR for more information and pictures of a very happy puppy following the successful removal.

Wishing you - and your pets - a very Merry Christmas from the team at Shepton and Wells Vets.
Izzy’s owner called us on Sunday morning because she had become acutely lame after a walk. Vet Kishan and Nurse Cara noticed a small wound on her paw pad, which was very painful to touch.
They admitted her for investigations and found a small splinter of glass wedged right up in her paw pad. Once it was out, Izzy was woken up, had a fancy dressing applied and is now doing well.
Chase, a 2 year old spaniel, had become very agitated after a walk, shaking his head a lot and and pawing at his left ear. He didn't want anyone to go near it - it was obviously very sore. Vet Martin suspected there was something in there so lightly sedated Chase to have a good look. Using a pair of crocodile forceps, he gently pulled out a grass seed!
Nurse Cara's video of a grass seed being removed from Buddy the cocker spaniel's paw has had over 1 million views on TikTok!
When Buddy developed a large, painful swelling on his paw, it wasn't immediately obvious what was causing it. Vet Sarah examined him under sedation and discovered the tiny track where the grass seed had burrowed right down into his pad, fishing deep to dig it out.
Buddy's now feeling much better!
Labrador gets lots of cuddles at Wells Vets
Kevin the fox red labrador has been in for his 2nd vaccinations, which means he can begin to venture out, and begin socialising with other pups! Kevin is a super friendly and happy pup and loves a bit of fuss!
Which us fine with us! Who would'nt love a cuddle with Kevin?
