We had the greatest joy in celebrating Mmusi and his dream to become a Veterinarian! 🩺 🐶

We are so happy to have been a part of helping Mmusi achieve his dream here at Craighall Veterinary Hospital with the help of the Reach For A Dream Foundation 💫

Mmusi was able to help us around the hospital providing all our patients with extra love and attention. It was a day of learning, fun, laughs and animal cuddles.

We feel very privileged that we could assist Mmusi in making his dream come true!

Meet Beulah, a very special dog with a very memorable family and story.
Beulah came in as an emergency hit by car. On initial examination her wounds seemed superficial, and it was clear that she was in shock. Once stabilised and given pain medication - quick X-rays were done to assess any further internal injuries. Luckily there were no signs of a ruptured diaphragm, and a bladder was confirmed to be intact via abdominal ultrasound - however Beulah had a dislocated left hip, and had fractured a couple of her teeth. The decision was made to perform a closed reduction of the hip (pop the hip back into it’s joint) which was unsuccessful as it dislocated again sometime thereafter. This was now a surgical case, and Beulah’s family were really worried about their sweet little rescue doggy who not only had their hearts, but had quickly won over the hearts of our staff.

Specialist surgeon and some of our vets and nurses remained behind after hours to perform a Femur Head & Neck Ostectomy, that would salvage Beulah’s limb. She made an awesome recovery and after 48 hours was discharged with one less hip joint, two less teeth - but with a limb, that once fully recovered, should give her a relatively normal life. For a dog of only 2 years of age, we took this as a massive win for all, and Beulah’s family were extremely grateful to have their best friend home safe and sound !

We would like to wish Beulah a speedy recovery, and whilst we will miss being greeted every morning by her sweet tail wags and gentle eyes, she belongs at home running around with her family for many more years to come! 🐾

Meet Stella, one of the sweetest cats! Little Stella developed an oesophageal stricture (a narrowing of her food pipe) and as a result could not keep any food down. With the help of a specialist and the donation of a PEG tube just before Christmas by a guardian angel, a gastrostomy tube was placed which allowed us and her owners to feed her directly into her stomach. Over a period of 7 weeks, repeated stretchings of the stricture were performed under anaesthetic, to try and break the stricture down, so that food could pass normally down her oesophagus into her stomach again. During this time, she was only fed through the tube in her stomach. We were finally able to remove the tube 7 weeks later and Stella is able to eat normally again, albeit only soft food. Stella is back to her normal, naughty self. She is one kitty that holds a very special place in all of our hearts here At Craighall Vet.

Thank you Joey and Gus for your life saving blood donations! You are the biggest heroes!
