🎃👻 HAPPY HALLOWEEN FROM WIDE BAY VETERINARY SERVICES! 🐾🧡

With trick-or-treaters out and about tonight, don’t forget to keep our furry family members safe this spooky season! 🐶🐱

🧡 A few Halloween safety reminders:

🍬 Keep treats out of reach! Chocolate, lollies and sugar-free treats containing xylitol can be dangerous for our pets.

🚪 Watch those doors and gates! With little ghosts and goblins coming to the door, make sure your pets can’t sneak out into the night.

🎃 Keep decorations pet-safe. Candles, electrical cords and small decorations can all pose a risk to curious noses and paws.

🐾 Give nervous pets a quiet space. Costumes, doorbells and spooky visitors can be overwhelming, so make sure they have somewhere safe to relax.

🧡 Let’s make sure Halloween is full of treats for the kids and no tricks for our pets!

If your pet gets into something they shouldn’t, contact your veterinarian for advice as soon as possible.

Have a safe and spooky Halloween! 👻🎃

— Your team at Wide Bay Veterinary Services 💚

🐴🌿 FUN FACT FRIDAY! 🌿🐴

Did you know horses can sleep both standing up and lying down? 😴

Horses have a clever locking mechanism in their legs that allows them to rest while standing, but they still need to lie down to get the deep sleep their bodies need!

Whether your horse is a paddock princess, a cheeky escape artist or your trusty best mate, keeping them happy and healthy is what matters most. 💚

💚 Violet’s Tick Paralysis Survival Story 💚

Meet Violet, the beautiful Airedale who gave us all a fright!

Violet came into Wide Bay Veterinary Services after her owners noticed she wasn’t quite herself. She was overdue for her tick prevention, and what followed was a very serious case of tick paralysis that nearly took her life.

Violet was critically ill and required intensive, around-the-clock veterinary care. She spent two nights under general anaesthesia and intubated, followed by another two days heavily sedated and receiving oxygen support through a nasal tube.

It was touch and go, and we honestly weren’t sure she would make it. But with dedicated care, constant monitoring and an incredible fight from Violet herself, she slowly began to recover. 💚

Seeing her awake, improving and finally well enough to go home was an incredibly special moment for our team. We are so grateful she made it through.

🐾 Please don’t underestimate paralysis ticks. Tick paralysis can progress rapidly and become life-threatening, even in otherwise healthy dogs.

✅ Keep your pet’s tick prevention up to date.
✅ Check your pets daily for ticks, even when using prevention.
✅ If your dog seems weak, wobbly, is vomiting, breathing differently or just isn’t acting like themselves, seek veterinary attention immediately.

Violet’s story is a reminder of just how important prevention and early intervention can be.

Give your pets the protection they deserve. If your pet’s prevention is overdue, contact our team today to discuss the best option for them.

We’re so happy you’re home, Violet! 💚🐶
