This lovely girl came to us after her dad suspected she had swallowed some thumbtacks 📍Our team took some radiographs and confirmed the presence of the thumbtacks in her system. Given the position of the foreign objects, we found a facility capable of performing a scope to remove the thumbtacks from her stomach. She is now back home with her family and is on the mend. ❤️

Medical t-shirts for pets.👚

💁🏼‍♀️These specially designed garments provide a comfortable and secure fit, acting as a protective barrier that helps prevent pets from chewing or licking their wounds/surgical incision areas.

Made from soft, breathable fabrics, these shirts ensure that pets remain comfortable and cozy while promoting proper healing. Medical shirts come in various sizes and colors, making recovery a bit more stylish and stress-free.

These shirts can be a great alternative or addition to the traditional e-collar, offering pets more freedom of movement without compromising wound healing. 😎

🤔🧐Keep in mind that each pet is unique, and as a result, they may need various deterrents to prevent them from licking or chewing at their wounds or surgical incisions.

❤️Sweet Lola arrived exhibiting primary symptoms of lethargy and a lack of appetite. Her owner informed us that Lola has a history of consuming inappropriate items. After conducting some diagnostic tests, Dr. Vetter discovered that Lola had ingested something that caused a blockage in her intestines that required a surgical procedure to remove. Lola recovered well from the procedure and went home to rest the same day. 😴

Adorable Izzy came to see us for a cherry eye repair. 👇🏼

🍒👁️Cherry eye reduction is a surgical intervention addressing a pr*****ed gland of the third eyelid, commonly known as “cherry eye.” This condition arises when the gland, crucial for producing a large portion of the eye’s tear film, becomes enlarged and displaces from its usual location.

Dogs usually require some aftercare following the surgical correction procedure , including medications to reduce inflammation and prevent infection, as well as follow-up visits to ensure proper healing. With timely intervention and proper care, most dogs recover well. If you suspect your dog may be developing cherry eye, consult with a veterinarian to discuss the most appropriate treatment options for your pet.

What is this diagnostic tool ☝️and how is it used? 🤔

👁️This test is called a Schirmer tear test. It is a simple diagnostic tool used by veterinarians to measure tear production in animals eyes. This test helps in diagnosing conditions like dry eye. During the test, a small strip of special paper is placed inside the lower eyelid of the animal and after a couple of minutes, the amount of moisture absorbed by the paper strip is measured.

A healthy tear production level is crucial for maintaining eye health, as tears help lubricate the eye, wash away debris. If an animal is not producing enough tears, it can lead to irritation, redness, and potential infections, ultimately affecting the dog’s vision. Early detection and treatment of eye conditions can prevent more severe complications.

❤️This lovely girl arrived at our hospital exhibiting lethargy and a lack of appetite. Following an examination and some diagnostics, the doctor discovered that she had a pyometra.

Pyometra is a serious and life threatening infection of the uterus. The infection can cause the uterus to fill with bacteria. It is more common in middle aged to older female dogs who have not been spayed.

Pyometra is caused by hormonal changes but most commonly from bacteria that can enter the uterus from the vagina.

Pyometras can be open or closed. In an open pyometra the cervix remains open and you will be able to see purulent or bloody discharge out of the v***a. When the pyometra is closed the cervix is shut and you will not be able to see the discharge.

This condition is best treated with surgery to remove the ovaries and uterus (spay). The surgery for a pyometra is often more complicated than a normal spay.

Symptoms can include:
* Discharge: A foul-smelling discharge from the v***a that can be white, yellowish, green, or clear
* Pain or discomfort: A bloated or painful belly
* Changes in behavior: Depression, lethargy, or unusual collapse
* Changes in appetite: Poor appetite or lack of energy
* Changes in urination and thirst: Increased urge for water and increased urination
* Other symptoms: Nausea or vomiting, fever, pale gums, or frequent panting

🐶This gal was seen by our team after she ingested a raisin. 🙅‍♀️ We were able to safely induce vomiting to get the raisin out of her system.

🚫Raisins, along with grapes, are known to be toxic to dogs. Even small amounts can lead to serious issues. Symptoms of raisin ingestion in dogs may include vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, and in severe cases, kidney failure. If you suspect your dog has ingested raisins, it is important to seek veterinary care immediately. Early detection and intervention is crucial in preventing serious health complications.

Always keep raisins and grapes out of reach of your pets to ensure their safety.

🎉We are excited to announce that Dr. Madison Taylor will be joining our team! 🙌🏼

👩‍⚕️As a type one diabetic, Dr. Madison was inundated with the medical field from a young age. She had a significant interest in medical advancement and public awareness. She became interested in veterinary care while attending Western Illinois University as a student-athlete, where she worked part-time as a Veterinary Assistant. Dr. Madison decided to pursue veterinary medicine rather than human medicine because of the diversity of the veterinary field and the opportunity to help numerous species. She then moved to Tennessee to work as a Veterinary Assistant for a year. She then attended Auburn University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, War Eagle! Because of her own experiences, she notably enjoys endocrinopathies, emergencies, and surgery. In her free time, she enjoys learning new languages, hiking, and traveling with her husband and off-brand Bernese Mountain dog, Reggie!

Beginning Monday, November 18th, Dr. Taylor will be available several days a week to provide care for your cherished furry friends. 🩺

What’s the most common dog name? Here’s what our team had to say. 👆 #dogname #commondognames #vettech #draperutah #veterinary #cutedogsofinstagram #vettechlife #dogsofinstagram #vet #vetmedicine

How do we get a urine sample from pets? 🤔 To obtain urine sample we will do a procedure called a cystocentesis. A cystocentesis allows us to obtain a sterile urine sample directly from the bladder and significantly reducing the risk of contamination from the urethra or external sources. The procedure is typically a swift and safe process and most pets handle it quite well. We use an ultrasound to guide the needle into the bladder. After the sample is collected, it can be analyzed to assist in diagnosing any underlying health concerns your pet may have, such as urinary tract infections or other urinary system-related conditions. 🐕 #urine #draperutah #cystocentesis #cutedogsofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #vet #vetmed #vetlife #urinesample #urinalysis #utahdogsofinstagram #utahdogs #cuteboy #tech #vettechlife
