Exotic Case of the Day 🩺
Eye Surgery on a Gecko 🦎
Loki, a 3-year old Leopard Gecko presented for bilateral eye abscess. Owner reported eye problem observed for over a month already. Total loss of the eye ball on right side and inflammation on left. Unfortunately, we need to remove the infected eye on the right 🥲. Surgery done under gas guided anesthesia.
Why Do Leopard Geckos Have Eye Issues?
Leopard geckos' eyes are large in proportion to the size of their heads. This is one reason why they tend to get things stuck in their eyes, develop abscesses or infections, and generally have more ocular problems than other animals. Otherwise, they may have congenital issues or some aspect of their diet or environment may be lacking.
It's important that you're able to recognize a developing eye problem in your gecko so that you can provide the appropriate care and understand when to contact your exotics vet for help.

Ever heard the phrase, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of a cure”? It rings true – especially with flea, tick, and heartworm prevention❤
Fleas and ticks can be troublesome and the latter may transmit disease. Blood parasitic and heartworm infections can be costly to treat. If they are left untreated, it can progress and can cause extensive damage like severe anemia or even death.
Below is a fighter dog named “Saver” who contracted Canine Ehrlichiosis. After 4days of intensive hospitalization and blood transfusions, he shows some improvement. He is now on home medication. Hoping for faster recovery soon. 🐕

Emergency Case of the Day🩺 Toad Poisoning in Dogs
Emergency Case of the Day 🩺
Toad Poisoning 🐸
Mocha, a 2 year old crossed Shi Tzu was rushed into our clinic for drooling, seizures and difficulty breathing. Owners reported signs observed after her dog seen chasing some kind of frogs in their area. Flushing of the mouth was done initially then put the dog on intensive care monitoring and treatment.
After hours of intensive treatment and monitoring- were happy to announce that the dog went home recovered ❤️🐕
If you have encountered like this similar case, call your nearest veterinarian ❤️🚑🚨
Toad poisoning occurs when a dog is exposed to toxins secreted by certain species of toads. Toads secrete toxic substances through glands on their skin. These substances are secreted in higher amounts when the toad feels threatened. When a toad is licked or eaten, absorption of these toxic substances through the mouth, open wounds or other mucous membranes results in poisoning. Toads are poisonous at all stages of life, including the tadpoles and eggs. Even drinking water from a bowl in which a toad was sitting or pond water containing eggs can result in poisoning. Within minutes of licking or ingesting a toad, drooling and frothing at the mouth occur. The gums may become very red and signs of pain, including pawing at the mouth or vocalizing, may be seen. Vomiting and diarrhea are common. Signs typically progress rapidly to include stumbling, tremors, seizures, abnormal eye movements, difficulty breathing, increased or decreased heart rate and abnormal heart rhythms. Without rapid treatment, death may occur. One of the most important treatments for toad poisoning is immediate flushing of the mouth with large amounts of running water. This decreases the amount of poison absorbed and the severity of signs. Further treatment will vary depending upon the signs that develop. Intravenous fluids, anti-nausea medications, medications to control the heart rate, muscle relaxants, medications to control seizures
Merlita and Malakas
Case of the Day 🩺❤️🐶
Two English Bulldog puppies recovered from Canine Parvovirus after Plasma Transfusion 🩺
Merlita and Malakas, both adorable puppies was rushed into our clinic for bloody diarrhea, vomiting and sudden weakness. Physical examination indicates possible CPV infection. BG was low and both we’re positive for CPV Ag immunoassay test. Patients has been admitted for intensive care treatment. Fresh plasma transfusion has been advised and done as a new potential treatment. Promising results was then observed ~24-48hrs post transfusion. This plasma provides action against the virus in new ways and we’re happy to announce that our clinic can offer a new option for owners with canine parvovirus infected animals.
Therapies in place for CPV are both symptomatic and supportive. The goal is to provide nutrition, restore electrolytes, maintain fluids, and resolve shock, sepsis, and endotoxemia, if present. This is achieved by hospitalizing patients and supplementing fluids with potassium chloride, due to loss of both electrolytes from intestinal cell damage.
Both puppies successfully discharged from the clinic after days of hospitalization.
Talk to us if you have concerns on canine parvovirus.

Case of the Day 🩺
Whiskey, a 7 month old male intact Shi Tzu was rushed to our clinic due to vehicular accident. No significant pain upon presentation and the dog was bright, alert and responsive. Referred for whole body radiograph but results unremarkable. Owner reported blood in the urine and vomiting post accident and was advised to proceed for abdominal ultrasound. Thanks to our new and intensive ultrasound machine- we can now focus and assessed the organs properly. Blood clots were seen on the dorsal wall of the bladder suggesting for localized bladder wall trauma. Medication was given and hoping for his fast recovery.

Case for Today 🏥💡
Apple, an 11-year-old female Pomeranian, referred for emergency. History of heart disease. The patient was cyanotic (bluish gums), watery nasal discharge, difficulty in breathing with increased respiratory effort and anorexic.
The patient was provided oxygen supplementation immediately upon initial assessment and placed on Intensive & Critical Care Unit. Oxygen saturation in the blood (SpO2), blood pressure and ECG were done for continuous monitoring. Loud heartmurmur was very evident on chest auscultation and crackles heard both in right and left lung fields-evident of pulmonary edema.
Furusemide, Pimobendan and Butorphanol injection were given thereafter. After patient stabilization, CBC and Canine NT-proBNP were requested for heart failure assessment.
Heart failure occurs when the heart is unable to pump an adequate amount of blood to the body.
Common Causes:
Mitral Valve Insufficiency(weak valve muscles that allows blood to backflow)
Dilated Cardiomyopathy( idiopathic )
Common Clinical Signs:
Persistent coughing
Difficulty in breathing
Exercise intolerance
Bluish gums
Heart murmur and cracking sounds on lungs upon auscultation
other signs include: Weight loss,fatigue, fainting, increase heart rate,anorexia
Predisposition:
Small Breeds
Old age
Congenital
Diagnosis:
History, Auscultation, Diagnostic Imaging, cNT proBNT test
Treatment:
Critical monitoring, oxygen therapy, furosemide, and pimobendan. The oxygen therapy helped to improve respiratory function. Furosemide to reduce fluid accumulation in the lungs and pimobendan to improve cardiac contractility.
Congestive heart failure is a common condition in dogs, especially in older dogs. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment can greatly improve the outcome for these patients.
Apples case highlights the importance of regular veterinary check ups and monitoring.
APPLES were stabilized now, receiving medicines and under observation.

On physical examination, the cat is dehydrated, hard and enlarged bladder on palpation and pain were observed.
The patient was put into IV fluid plus Electrocardiogram readings taken in preparation for urinary catheterisation. A heart rate of 100bpm (indicates poss hyperkalemia) was evaluated and stabilization takes place. Mild sedation and coccygeal epidural anesthesia was done to reduce urethral spasm and improve comfort following placement of u-catheter. Inflamed tip of the pen*s and a grit were seen. An estimate of 200ml urine with blood were aspirated thereafter. An open-ended polypropylene 3.5Fr tomcat catheter were sutured in placed following closed circuit urinary bag.
Poor cat 🐱 Now he’s on hospital for treatment plus further monitoring. Hoping for full recovery soon ❤️
