68kg Great Dane Zues, spent some time with us recently, after an emergency Sunday surgery for GDV. Large chested breeds such as the Great Dane are at risk of the life threatening condition, when the dog’s stomach fills with gas, food, or fluid and then twists on its axis.

In its early stage, the stomach fills with gas, causing a simple gastric dilatation or “bloat”. A GDV occurs when the bloat progresses into a volvulus, in which the gas-filled stomach twists upon itself blocking both the entrance and exit of the stomach. This is a life-threatening emergency that requires surgery to correct.
Careful attention to diet, feeding and exercise regimens may help prevent gastric dilatation (bloat).

Zeus recovered well in hospital, with lots of care and attention from our team. We were all so pleased to see him for a re-check as he bounded through the front door last week 💙

🦷 Dental disease is highly prevalent in our dogs and cats, with an estimated 80% showing signs of oral disease by the age of 3.

Dental disease can cause bad breath, infection and pain. Left untreated, infected gums can allow bacteria to enter your pets bloodstream, causing potentially life threatening disease long term.

Regular check ups allow your vet team to examine your pets mouth and teeth, we can give you advice to assist with home care and schedule dental cleaning under general anaesthetic.

Did you know we offer complimentary nurse dental exams - simply phone the team on 63411768 to make an appointment 🐾🦷🪥

From time to time we have the pleasure of caring for mischievous little ferrets and recently, little Luna, spent the day (& was on her best behavior!)

We looked up some fun ferret facts 🐾
* They are Mustelids - cousins to weasels, mink, otters and badgers
* The word ferret in Latin means ‘little thief’
* A group of ferrets is called a ‘business’
* A baby ferret is a kit and weighs only around 10 grams at birth
* Males are called ‘hob’ or ‘gib’ when desexed
* Females are ‘jills’ and called a ‘sprite’ once desexed
* Their heart beats at 200-250 beat per minute
* Adults have 34 teeth and need a meat protein, high fat diet
* Ferrets make a sound called ‘dooking’ during play sessions and exploring exciting new environments, described as a rapid ‘cluck cluck’, dooking usually accompanies the ‘weasel war dance’ - a frenzied display of arched backs, twists, erratic hops
