Rabies. Facts not Fear.

We would like to inform our clients of a positive canine Rabies case in the Southern Peninsula region.

Please see the link below from the City of Cape Town for the full article.

https://www.capetown.gov.za/Media-and-news/Public%20cautioned%20to%20be%20alert%20following%20confirmed%20dog%20rabies%20case

This post is not to alarm anyone, but to inform you to be alert.

Rabies is Zoonotic disease (a disease transmitted from animals to humans) caused by a virus. The virus is transmitted through contact with the saliva (i.e. bites, licks) of an infected animal and infects the brain and causes confusion, seizures, muscle paralysis and death in 100% of cases.

Rabies is preventable through the vaccination of domestic cats and dogs.
Your pet should be vaccinated by a vet when they are three months old, again at 1 year of age and then every 1-3 years depending on the rabies risk in the area.

Do not approach or pet any stray animals, especially if they show signs of aggression, excessive drooling, paralysis, or difficulty swallowing. Should you suspect an animal to have rabies, please contact your state veterinarian Boland at 021-808-5028/ 5253.

This does not mean that you should abandon your pet or hurt other animals. These are some safety measures which you can follow:
- Vaccinate your pets against Rabies. Prevention is the only option; there is no cure.
- Keep your dog on lead when going out for a walk. You do not know whose pet is unvaccinated or which wild animal is in the area.
- Do not try to pet an animal that is sick.

Contact us at 021 - 674 4090 to book your rabies vaccination, should it be required.

Again, this post is not to alarm, but for you to be informed and alert. Veterinary officials are working to determine the source of the infection as rabies infections in dogs are very rare in the Western Cape.

Leo coming in for his post-op check up with Dr Triegaardt 🐶

His owners were quite concerned about his health when he started limping. After being referred to Dr Triegaardt, by our Milner Road Vets, for a CCLR and patella luxation repair procedure, Leo is healing well and his cheeky side is starting to show again.

We are proud of Leo and his progress, as well as his owners for bringing him in when they noticed a change in his behaviour and their diligent post-op care at home.

We are looking for forward to seeing Leo strutting his tail soon 🫶😘

Noodle from Nature Connect came in to receive a microchip with Dr. Bebbington.

Why microchip your pet?
Microchipping your pet is an important part of responsible pet ownership. It also allows for identification and traceability of your pet and gives them the best chance of being reunited with you, should they happen to go missing.
