Waroona Veterinary Clinic

Meet Andrew
Andrew is a stunning male peacock 🦚
who has been suffering from a eye infection that was unable to be resolved with medication alone .
Andrew was a real trooper and breezed through his General Anaesthetic and operation to remove the deeply embedded infection in front of his eye.

What a cutie 🥰 ❤️
The adorbale snoop was in for his second vaccinations , health check and free puppy pack.

“Link” the Tonkinese was in today for some tummy troubles.
After his visit he was helping his owner choose what style cat bowl he would like
🐾Dogs eat. Cats dine.🐈‍⬛

Meet Apollo
Apollo suffers from Megaesophagus which is a condition that decreases mobility in the muscles of the esophagus, the tube that connects the mouth and stomach.

Apollo is one very lucky Samoyed to have such dedicated owners, as he requires a very strict especially made liquid diet and daily medications

- Can all dogs swim like a duck 🦆 ? �Short answer is nope 👎🏻

- Even dogs who seem confident, and run into the water as they are chasing after a toy or another dog, can end up in a lot of trouble quickly some puppies or dogs new to water will just chase a toy or dog straight into the water without realising that the ground surface has changed to water , that gets deeper or has a ledge/ drop off into deeper water which is common at the waroona dam and weir
- 😱 When this happens the dog /puppy can panic when they realise the ground has disappeared and the panicking can quickly lead to drowning.

- 🏊 Swimming is a wonderful exercise for dogs, but we need to be aware not all breeds are natural swimmers
- Some breeds seem to know how to swim from the moment they see a water such as a Labrador , whereas some are to lazy or don’t see the point of swimming.
- Some breeds have a weight distribution issues such as bulldog b, that doesn’t make it possible for them to swim well without a life vest
- Short-legged and long-bodied breeds like dashound’s can also struggle in the water, simply cause there short legs don’t make good rudders

- 🐩 No matter what breed you have, you always want that first experience to be fun, Which means never throwing your dog into the water and letting him figure things out on his own so to speak
- Throwing a puppy or young dog in the water is not only a horrible idea that can lead to major health issues associated with inhaling water , ear issues and drowning to mention just a few - but it commonly in fact, damage the dog’s courage and can turn them off swimming or even going near water for life.

- 🛥️ Life jackets are always recommended and a must if your dog is travelling on a boat regardless of how good there swimming ability is , life jackets are always a great way to encourage a puppy or dog to try the water with confidence.

- 🏖️ Always be aware at the beach to watch waves and tides that can easily cause problems for even the best of dog swimmers
- 💦 Dont forget fresh water for your dog to drink - always discourage your dog from drinking the sea water which is a common issue with beach trips the excess salt in the ocean water draws water from the blood into the intestines, which starts diarrhoea & vomiting, which leads quickly to dehydration. The Salt in the water also quickly alters the fluid /electrolyte balance in your dog body , dogs drinking sea water can reach toxic levels of sodium in their systems which can lead to death.

PRESTON BEACH 🏖️
Please be extra cautious we have seen a large increase in 🐡 blowfish poisonings coming into the clinic this last week.

Dogs are at risk if they come along a blowfish on the beach; licking ,sniffing or eating the blowfish even if it’s dead, will cause poisoning.

Most cases dogs are off lead, they simply run up and ingest the fish before an owner even realises it’s happened.

Please don’t wait for signs 🪧, if you even suspect your dog may have touched a blowfish please immediately take to your vets.

The blowfish contains a Tetrodotoxin even in the scales/skin of the fish
It is an extremely quick-acting poison. Within minutes, symptoms of poisoning will begin to show, and over a couple of hours paralysis will set in. Puffer fish poisoning in dogs can be deadly. Fatality is possible within as short a period as an hour.
Early blowfish poisoning symptoms include:
Vomiting
Excessive drooling
Panting / lethargy
Symptoms will then progress to:
Trembling
Wobbly walking pattern
Blue-tinged coloured gums
Dilated pupils
Muscle tremors and seizures
Quickly signs and symptoms will become more severe to include:
Difficulty breathing
Unable to blink
Complete paralysis of the whole body
Coma/ Unable to breathe
