Sudden lameness can stem from a minor sprain, a grass seed or thorn, a torn nail, or something more serious like a fracture or cruciate ligament injury. 🐕

If your dog is holding the leg up completely, crying in pain, has swelling or heat, or the leg is in an obviously abnormal position, seek veterinary care promptly. ⚠️

If mild lameness hasn’t improved after a day of rest, it’s also time for a vet visit. Early assessment helps us treat the cause and keep your dog comfortable. 🩺

Meet Dr Holly 🩵

If you have been to the clinic recently, you may have seen a new face treating your pets! 🧐

Dr Holly is the newest member of the LVH team, joining us as a New Grad Veterinarian. Holly recently graduated from Charles Sturt University in July 2026 with a Bachelor of Veterinary Science/Veterinary Biology. Some of you may have met Holly while she completed her final university placement in our clinic earlier this year. Because she liked us and we loved having her, she decided to come back full time!! 🥳🎉

Apart from always loving everyone's pets and wanting to take them all home, Holly has 2 dogs, 3 ducks, lots of chickens, 4 horses and 4 guinea pigs that she loves dearly at home. Some of Dr Holly's favourite things about working at LVH are the variety of cases that come in the door and that every day can be completely different. She loves the culture of a country practice and how welcoming everyone has been. 🥰

We are very excited to have Holly as part of our team and can't wait for you to meet her if you haven't already. Please be sure to give her a warm welcome when you next see her! 🩵

For mild, short-lived tummy upsets, a bland diet may help some dogs and cats. 🐶🐱 Boiled, skinless chicken breast or lean white fish with plain boiled rice or pumpkin are easy, gentle options. Feed small, frequent meals rather than one large serve, and gradually reintroduce your pet’s normal food over a few days once symptoms settle.

These home-prepared diets aren’t complete and balanced, so they should only be used short term and ideally under veterinary guidance. 🥣

If vomiting is repeated, diarrhoea is severe, appetite is poor, or your pet seems unwell, please book a vet check promptly. 🩺

Probiotics may support gut health, particularly after antibiotic use, during stressful periods, or for pets with sensitive tummies. 🦠 Not every pet needs one, though, and quality varies widely between products.

Look for a veterinary-specific probiotic with documented strains and an adequate viable colony count, rather than a human product. 🐾 If your pet has ongoing digestive issues, a probiotic isn’t a substitute for investigating the underlying cause.

Ask us for more information. 🩺

This is Evie! 🐕

Evie is a 9 year old miniature dachshund that we saw recently for frequent urination and urinating while sleeping.

On ultrasound she had a bright white ring around something in her bladder, while also having a rock hard bladder. This prompted us to complete x-rays where we not only found two large bladder stones but we found she had ingested a lot of gravel from the driveway!! 😱

To make it easier to remove the bladder stones we completed an e***a to remove some gravel. The bladder stones were safely removed and were measured out at 3-4cm x 3cm!! No wonder she was uncomfortable! 😣

We sent the bladder stones off to a lab in America to test what they were made up of to see if we can reduce this occurring again. The results of the stones have come back as being 70% struvites, which is a crystal formed from a urinary tract infection and having a too alkaline urine!

Thankfully Evie has made a full recovery! ❤️‍🩹

Supermarket ‘pet meat’ is often labelled ‘not fit for human consumption’ and isn’t produced to the same food-safety standards as meat sold for people. 🥩 It can carry a higher risk of bacterial contamination and, in some cases, contain sulphite preservatives that can cause serious thiamine deficiency in cats and dogs. ⚠️

If feeding raw meat, choose human-grade options, and store and handle them carefully.

Ask us about safe ways to include meat in your pet’s diet. 🐾

Grass seeds are a big problem at this time of year.

Sabrina the Welsh Mountain Pony had one stuck in her eye last week and came in to have it removed. It had caused a large ulcer and needed treatment with eye medication & pain relief.

We are pleased to report it is healing well & she is feeling much better.

If you suspect that your pet or pony may be affected by a grass seed causing problems, contact your veterinary team ASAP.

A good-quality, complete and balanced dry food can meet all of your dog’s nutritional needs on its own. 🐶

Kibble is convenient and cost-effective. Some specially formulated dental kibbles can help reduce plaque and tartar, but standard dry food shouldn’t be relied on to clean your dog’s teeth. 🦷 Wet food isn’t essential, though it can help boost hydration or tempt fussy eaters. The most important thing is choosing a diet labelled ‘complete and balanced’ for your dog’s life stage. 🥣

Unsure if your dog’s food ticks the box? Ask us at their next visit.
