Today, on Remembrance Day, we pause to honour the brave men, women and animals who have served and sacrificed in times of war.

From the loyal dogs who carried messages and searched for the wounded, to the horses who transported soldiers and supplies, animals have played an extraordinary role throughout history. Their courage, loyalty and unwavering companionship remind us of the incredible bond between humans and animals, even in the most difficult of times.

Lest We Forget, 🌹

Ever wondered why your dog does the things they do? 🐾

This week's breed: Irish Wolfhound

🐶 Origin
The Irish Wolfhound is an ancient breed originating in Ireland, with a history stretching back centuries. These enormous dogs were highly valued for their strength, speed and hunting abilities. Once owned by Irish nobility, they were used to hunt large game, including wolves and deer.

🧠 Why were they bred?
Irish Wolfhounds were bred to pursue and hunt large, powerful animals. As sighthounds, they relied on their incredible eyesight, speed and strength to spot and chase prey. Their work required courage, independence and athleticism, traits that can still be seen in the breed today.

🏃‍♂️ What does this mean at home?
Despite their impressive size and hunting history, Irish Wolfhounds are often described as gentle giants! They're generally calm, affectionate and happiest spending time with their families.

While they may love lounging around the house, their sighthound instincts mean they can suddenly become very interested in anything that moves quickly! Their size and natural prey drive make secure exercise areas and reliable training particularly important.

They also grow incredibly quickly, so exercise should be carefully managed during puppyhood to protect their developing bones and joints.

🎾 Best ways to enrich them:
• Daily walks with plenty of sniffing opportunities
• Safe opportunities to run in secure areas
• Scent games and "find it" activities
• Gentle positive reinforcement training
• Puzzle feeders and interactive toys
• Age-appropriate exercise and play
• Plenty of quality time relaxing with their family

Irish Wolfhounds might look intimidating, but underneath that enormous, shaggy exterior is often a wonderfully gentle and affectionate companion! 🐾

Poor Nurse TJ seems to have become our unofficial vomiting supervisor! 🤢

Rocky and Luci recently paid a visit to our Augustine Heights Hospital after helping themselves to a bunch of chocolate biscuits. Thankfully, Nurse TJ was there to save the day, helping care for the mischievous duo while our team induced vomiting to get those naughty snacks back out.

If Nurse TJ looks familiar, you might remember seeing her in a very similar situation with another patient just TWO weeks ago! 😂

A little reminder: Chocolate is toxic to dogs, so if your furry friend gets into the chocolate stash, contact your vet straight away! 🍫

Nurse Tess had her very own Snow White moment last week when a little feathered friend was brought into our Springfield Hospital during those horrendous storms! ⛈️

After a delicious meal, a warm place to dry off and some TLC from Nurse Tess, this little pigeon was feeling much better. Once the rain had settled and the skies had cleared, our feathered friend was released back into the wild to continue his adventures!

Just another day at GS Vets, where even our unexpected visitors get a little extra love 🐾

Meet Frankie, the adorable pug who recently visited our Augustine Heights Hospital after her family noticed she was straining to urinate and appeared uncomfortable in her tummy.

After an examination with Dr Liz, Frankie was admitted for an ultrasound, where our team discovered the culprit... a huge 6cm bladder stone! 😱

Frankie was referred to our Springfield Hospital, where Dr Ashur performed a procedure called a cystotomy to surgically remove the stone.

Thankfully, Frankie's long-term prognosis is looking good! She'll now be transitioning to a prescription urinary diet by Hill’s Pet Nutrition called C/D Multicare, to help reduce the risk of future bladder stones forming. 🐶

A little reminder: If you notice your pet straining to urinate, passing blood in their urine or making frequent trips to the toilet, please don't ignore it! Difficulty urinating can be a sign of a serious medical issue, and an inability to pass urine is an emergency.

Ever wondered why your dog does the things they do? 🐾

This week's breed: Basenji

🐶 Origin
The Basenji is an ancient breed originating in Central Africa, particularly the Congo region. These clever, athletic dogs were traditionally used by local hunters to track and flush out small game. They're also famous for being the "barkless dog" — but that doesn't mean they're silent!

🧠 Why were they bred?
Basenjis were bred to hunt in dense forests, using their sharp eyesight, keen sense of smell and incredible agility to locate prey. They often worked independently, making quick decisions without constant direction from their handlers. This helped shape their curious, intelligent and famously independent personalities.

🏃‍♂️ What does this mean at home?
Basenjis are energetic, clever and full of personality! Their hunting background means they have a strong prey drive and may instinctively chase anything that moves, from birds to lizards.

They're also known for their independent streak, which can make training a little challenging. Positive reinforcement, patience and keeping sessions interesting are key!

And while Basenjis don't typically bark like other dogs, they're far from quiet! They communicate through a range of unusual sounds, including their famous yodel-like "baroo". 🎶

🎾 Best ways to enrich them:
• Daily walks with plenty of sniffing
• Scent work and tracking games
• Puzzle feeders and problem-solving toys
• Lure coursing and safe chasing games
• Short, positive training sessions
• Secure areas to run and explore
• Interactive games that challenge their brain

Basenjis are fascinating little dogs with big personalities! Their intelligence, independence and natural curiosity make them entertaining companions, but they need plenty of opportunities to use their instincts. 🐾

🐾 One injection provides 12 months of flea and tick protection.

Meet Bruno, who recently visited our Augustine Heights Hospital for his cryptorchid castration (removal of an undescended testicle).

After his procedure, Bruno was supposed to be resting in his comfy recovery bed… but he had other plans. With a serious case of FOMO, Bruno couldn't possibly relax while there was so much happening around him!

Thankfully, Nurse Keira came to the rescue with some snazzy new transport, and suddenly Bruno was more than happy to settle down. 💕
