Bot flies (Cuterebra) lay their eggs near animal burrows or outdoor enclosures. These eggs may get stuck on the fur of a passing mammal. When the eggs hatch, the larva burrows into the skin of its host. Watch if you dare! We think it’s one of those “ it’s so gross. It’s cool” things. This bunny will be fine ❤️

What is Nares Surgery?
The corrective surgery for stenotic nares involves the removal of part of the outer fold of each nostril. This procedure will widen the nostril opening allowing your dog to breathe more easily through their nose.

In this photo, it demonstrates the difference between a normal canine's anatomy vs a brachycephalic's anatomy.
When you hear brachycephalic, think of our squish faced pets, specifically French bulldogs, English bulldogs, pugs, even Boston terriers. The squished face and elongated soft pallet (darker pink portion on the roof of their mouth) is a recipe for disaster with this heat. Once these guys start to get stressed and pant, their soft pallet becomes inflamed and blocks their airway, allowing very little to no air exchange.
Panting is how dogs cool themselves down, and when this airway is blocked, it causes these guys to overheat and go into heat stroke. More times than not, we end up needing to put a breathing tube down their trachea just so they can breathe. Often, these dog's temperature on arrival can be anywhere from 104° F - too high to read (normal canine temperature is 99-102° F). A temperature of over 107°F, their insides begin to melt and it's harder to save them. We are seeing an increasing number of brachy's come in for specialty appointments but end up in our ER with a respiratory crisis instead.
This post is not to shame these dogs, or their owners. I am hoping to educate and spread awareness on the real dangers of this breed, especially with extreme temps we are experiencing. You'd be surprised to know that most owners of these dogs that end up in our ER, had no idea what brachycephalic even meant.
I want this post to shed light on how important it is to educate yourself with a breed before you purchase or adopt. I want to advocate proper breeding for these guys, their squished face is NOT normal. I am tired of watching owner's needing to make the decision to put their babies to sleep because there is nothing more that we can do. SHORT leash walks outside and then stay indoors with water & AC. Your dog will thank you.

This morning Gemma was heading back home and noticed people had pulled over on the side of the road because they saw a sandhill crane that had been hit (Eau Gallie Blvd). She pulled over to offer assistance. The sandhill crane had been hit by a car and appeared to have a fractured leg. She instinctively grabbed the bird with the help of a bystander and brought it back to work, all why its mate was screaming in the background ☹️. Unfortunately for this crane, the fracture is too close to the joint to be fixed and ultimately it was euthanized. Please be aware of cranes and wildlife this time of year as it’s mating season. If you do accidentally hit something please do not drive off. you will not get into trouble. Call WILD Florida Rescue or Florida Wildlife Hospital and someone will come out and assist or offer advise as to what to do. Thank you to the couple and lady who offered help ❤️

Space Coast Frenchie Rescue had the unfortunate job of bringing in 35 dogs in the month of May for medical care. That is absolutely insane🤯. They can not continue to save these precious babies without your help. If you'd like to donate toward their medical care, the link is
https://www.spacecoastfrenchierescue.org/donate/

I'd like to take a moment to extend our deepest appreciation to our dedicated veterinarians, technicians, and the compassionate front desk teams for their invaluable support Eau Gallie Veterinary Hospital & Highlands Animal Hospital! Without their tireless dedication, our rescue efforts would not be possible. Many among them generously foster, transport, and help network our dogs, with two currently caring for our hospice dogs. Your unwavering commitment is truly commendable, and we cannot thank you enough.

On a more solemn note, I recently learned of an unfortunate incident involving one of our fosters being disrespectful to the staff at one of our veterinary clinics. It leaves me at a loss for words to comprehend why someone would behave rudely towards them, let alone disregard their instructions concerning the care of the dogs. Following our veterinarians' guidance is not just encouraged; it's imperative. Unless you've undergone veterinary
training, adhering to their instructions is crucial.

Even if you're not directly involved with our rescue, I urge everyone to be considerate and respectful towards your veterinarians and their hardworking staff. They witness distressing situations daily, and kindness towards them is paramount.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

❤️

Have you adopted a dog from a shelter, rescue or had your veterinarian ask if you want your pet tattooed during its spay or neuter? 
The green tattoo is a permanent mark that notifies all future veterinarians and shelter personnel that this patient has already had its spay/neuter surgery. Many spay/neuter surgical scars can be very small especially if the surgery was done as a puppy or kitten. Tattooing at the time of spay/neuter surgery avoids the possibility of a tattooed animal from undergoing unnecessary exploratory surgery in the future.
We offer this service free to all pets, undergoing a spay or neuter.

This is why we harp on the importance of routine dental cleaning. This dog was brought in through Space Coast Frenchie Rescue. Due to not having routine dental care, she has an oral fistula where you can clearly see her sinus cavity and needs full mouth extractions. Dental disease does not just affect the mouth. Infection can become systemic and damage other organs.
