Here are some things we hear on a regular basis that make us 🧐🙃
"My dog cuts himself, it's open but I've treated it"
> Which more often than not goes badly.
Incorrect treatment and bandaging can cause harm.
"My dogs limping & dragging his leg but he's not in pain"
Guys..limping IS the sign of pain, your dog can't talk to tell you that your pushing and prodding hurts.
"They're still eating and drinking so they must be fine"
> This is often after they tell us symptoms that are in fact.. not fine.
Shockingly, eating and drinking are basic survival instincts.
Animals are going to continue with basic survival requirements even when in pain.
This can obviously reduce when pain or discomfort is overwhelming, or if they're nauseous.
We don’t want to wait for that to help your pet.
If you're not trained in veterinary medicine or first aid, please avoid self diagnosing and self treating, this can often prolong suffering, worsen the issue and affect treatment.
If unsure always call your local vet.
