The vets at Vet Marlborough have seen a recent increase in the number of dogs presenting with symptoms of ma*****na poisoning.

Even small amounts of THC, the main toxic element in ma*****na, can be toxic to dogs and lead to symptoms such as:
Lethargy
Disorientation
Dilated pupils
Tremors
Incoordination
Urine leakage

In severe cases, seizures or coma can occur. Cats show similar signs.

Dogs will ingest the dried plant material, edibles, vapes, concentrates or even human waste.
Symptoms may be seen as soon as 30 minutes or up to several hours after ingestion and can last as long as 3 days. It is a very unpleasant experience for the affected pet to go through.
Your vet may need to provide supportive care while your pet recovers.

Preventing access to these products is an essential part of keeping your pet safe and happy.

Staff members pet of the week - Meet Morkle!

Morkle is one of Jessica’s beloved Bullmastiffs, and at nearly 8 years old, he’s living the good life. In his younger days, he was a real star in the show ring, earning top results in conformation shows. These days, he’s semi-retired, only stepping back into the ring as a Veteran at breed specialty shows.
Morkle shares his home with two other Bullmastiffs and gets absolutely spoiled! His favourite things? Snoozing in the sun ☀️ and snuggling in bed with Mackenzie every night. No wonder he’s earned the nickname King Morkle around the house.

Meet clinic celebrity, Winston!
Unfortunately, this little guy had a run-in with a vehicle which left him unable to stand or walk. Thankfully x-rays revealed there were no broken bones or obvious internal injuries, with the likely cause of his inability to walk being bruising or inflammation on or near his spine. Whilst this was good news, it did however mean it was a waiting game to see how, or if, he would improve.
It was quite the journey, with Winston and his teddy staying with us for over a month while he slowly regained function of his legs and back-through daily physiotherapy and cage rest.
After just a few weeks our morning team were delighted to be greeted by Winston standing at the door of his kennel, wobbly but wagging his tail and beaming with pride!
It was onwards and upwards from there! Our biggest job became keeping Winston calm on walks and reminding him to take it slow so that he didn’t reverse any of his incredible progress.
After a whopping 42 day stay with us, Winston went home with one of our nurses Stacey, who specialises in physiotherapy. He has been getting the best treatment with daily physiotherapy, massage and red-light therapy and has continued to improve.
Since leaving us Winston has been back for multiple visits and check-ins, you’ll find him at the centre of a circle of his many admirers. We can’t wait until we see you again Winnie!
It’s safe to say that little Winston is a warrior who won’t let anything keep him down. His positive outlook had him winning hearts and inspiring anybody who had the pleasure of meeting him.

Meet Lottie!
Lottie came into the clinic last week for Bilateral entropion repair (cherry eye). Lottie is a Maltese x poodle x shih tzu and only four months old. Cherry eye can occur certain breeds of dogs such as brachycephalic (short nosed) breeds. It can cause discomfort and further complications if left untreated, resulting in irritation, dry eyes, infections or corneal ulcers. Lottie first came to us at nine weeks old with a sore eye. After assessment from our vet Mark, she was diagnosed with cherry eye in both eyes. Firstly, before Lottie’s surgery we tried a non-surgical option using eye drops twice day for two weeks twice with two different medications. When this was unsuccessful, we then turned to the surgical option to repair this. Our vet Elizabeth last week corrected Lottie’s eyes by doing a surgery called bilateral entropion repair using a "pocket technique". This was very challenging due to small size of her eyelids, little Lottie only being 4 months and weighing in at only 2kgs. After a successful surgery a few hours later, Lottie was able to go home and is now recovering very well at home and zooming around like nothing has ever happened.

On Wednesday this week nurses Ren & Barb along with our Practice Manager Katharine and Chilli the dog represented Vet Marlborough at the Future of Work Conference.
The students were able to view and try some of our veterinary equipment. They could use the stethoscope to listen to our model Chillis heartbeat, practice a mock suturing, guess what's on the x-ray images and also guess what food is toxic to dogs.
The team had a great afternoon showing the students from all around Marlborough their skills and what the veterinary industry involves.
