Talk about a cute patient! 🐾

Izzy is a patient from September last year, and safe to say she stole a few hearts while she was in with us 💛

This very cute wee pup checked in for some urgent care with our team and was an absolute star — plenty of tail wags, cuddles, and those big puppy-dog eyes that make it hard not to fall in love!

The best part? After about a week of rest and care, Izzy was back to her usual antics at home — just how we like it 👏🐶

🐾 Found Deceased Cat – Charles Street 🐾

A deceased cat has been brought into our clinic after being found on Charles Street, Hastings.

The cat is a silver tabby, male, entire (not desexed), and is not microchipped.

If you believe this may be your cat, please contact our clinic.

Our thoughts are with the owner. 💛

✨ A tricky case with a great outcome for Bella ✨

Bella was brought in to After Hours after becoming very uncomfortable with a sore abdomen and going off her food — something we always take seriously.

Initial blood tests didn’t give us any clear answers, so we dug a little deeper. X-rays revealed something suspicious — a radiopaque structure that raised concern for a possible foreign body.

To confirm, we used ultrasound and located the object in the cranial abdomen… but finding it wasn’t straightforward! After a careful 30-minute search during surgery, we finally discovered the culprit — a small metal wire embedded in her intra-abdominal fat 😮

Thankfully, Bella was an absolute superstar throughout it all 💛 She made a speedy recovery after surgery and was happily reunited with her owner the very next day.

Well done to the team and to Bella for being such a brave girl 🐶✨

🐾 FOUND DOG – NAPIER 🐾

EDIT: NOW WITH THE SPCA

A female Shih Tzu was found on Tait Drive, Napier wearing a collar and lead.

She is injured, with a very sore eye.

Unfortunately, she does not appear to be microchipped, so we need your help to find her owner.

If you recognise this dog or have any information, please contact HBAH as soon as possible:
📞 06 651 7103

Please share to help us reunite her with her family 🐾

Happy World Veterinary Day 🐾💛

From all of us at Hawke’s Bay After Hours — we’re sending a huge amount of love and appreciation to every vet across our region today.

With severe weather forecast across the region, please know that HBAH will remain open, and our team will be here for you and your pets. 💛

🐶 A few simple ways to keep your pets safe at home:
• Bring pets indoors early — storms can be frightening and unpredictable
• Provide a quiet, secure space where they feel safe.
• Ensure collars and ID tags are on, and microchip details are current
• If you’re heading outside with your dogs, keep them on a lead incase they get a fright and try to escape

⚠️ Karaka Berry season warning for dog owners ⚠️
We saw gorgeous Golden Retriever Ari in Urgent Care before he was transferred to Massey University Veterinary Teaching Hospital for intensive treatment after eating karaka berries.

He spent 13 days fighting seizures and brain swelling, and we’re so relieved he’s now on the road to recovery 💛

Karaka berries are highly toxic to dogs and there is no antidote. Early signs include vomiting, tremors, and seizures.

If you think your dog may have eaten them, seek vet care immediately. Acting quickly can save their life.

Please learn what these berries look like - it could make all the difference. 🐾
