❤️ TOOTSIE’S HEARTWORM SUCCESS STORY! ❤️
When sweet Tootsie was rescued from the RSPCA, she came with a positive diagnosis of heartworm disease. She was then brought into our clinic to further her treatment journey, and what a journey it has been! 🐾
Heartworm treatment is a long and challenging process, but Tootsie’s mum followed her strict treatment protocol so incredibly well, including the very important strict exercise restriction needed throughout her recovery.
And finally, on Day 271, we have some very exciting news… 🎉
✨ TOOTSIE IS FINALLY CLEAR OF HEARTWORM! ✨
We are so proud of this beautiful girl and her dedicated mum, her commitment to her treatment has made all the difference.
🐶 Tootsie’s story is also a very important reminder about heartworm prevention.
Heartworm disease is serious, potentially life-threatening and preventable. Once a dog develops heartworm, treatment is lengthy, expensive and requires strict exercise restriction to reduce the risk of dangerous complications.
The best protection is regular, reliable heartworm prevention, don’t wait until it’s too late.
Ask our team about the best heartworm prevention option for your pet. 🐾❤️
Congratulations Tootsie. 271 days later, you did it! 🥳

🐾 When a trip to the beach goes a little too far! 🏖️

Meet gorgeous Sooty 💕 He came into the clinic feeling very unwell, with a painful tummy, acute vomiting and diarrhoea, and his owner had noticed sand in his faeces.
Sooty had been to the beach that morning as usual, but by that evening he had become increasingly restless and uncomfortable. After further diagnostics, we discovered the cause…. Sooty had ingested a HUGE amount of sand! 😳

On his X-rays, the sand can be seen as the bright white areas throughout his gastrointestinal tract.

🌊 Why is eating sand dangerous?
A large amount of ingested sand can lead to:
• Severe abdominal pain and discomfort
• Vomiting and diarrhoea
• Dehydration
• Constipation or an inability to pass faeces
• A blockage or intestinal obstruction
• Damage to the gastrointestinal tract
• In severe cases, a life-threatening intestinal perforation or the need for surgery

Thankfully, Sooty responded beautifully to treatment with pain relief, anti-nausea medication and a gentle diet, and we are very happy to say that he is now back to his happy self! 🥰🐶
Sooty’s story is a great reminder that while beach days are lots of fun, some dogs can ingest surprisingly large amounts of sand while playing, digging or fetching.
Keep an eye out for vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, restlessness or changes in toileting after a beach visit and if your dog seems unwell, don’t wait to get them checked. ❤️

🐾 FACT OR MYTH FRIDAY? 🐾
🦠Kennel Cough🦠

Dogs can only catch kennel cough if they have been to a kennel?

❌ MYTH! 

Despite the name, kennel cough — also known as Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease (CIRD) — doesn’t just happen in kennels! 
It’s a highly contagious respiratory infection that can spread anywhere dogs come into contact with each other, including : 
🌳 Dog parks 
🐶 Doggy daycare 
✂️ Grooming salons 
🎓 Training classes 
🏠 Boarding facilities 
🏥 Veterinary clinics 
It can spread through coughing and sneezing, close contact, and contaminated items such as shared water bowls and toys. 
So even if your dog is a homebody, they can still pick it up! 🐾 

💉 The good news? Keeping your dog’s vaccinations up to date can help reduce the risk and severity of some of the infections that contribute to canine infectious cough. 

Questions about your dog’s vaccination or cough protection? Give us a call! 0754471679🩵

🐾 National Lost Pet Prevention Month 🐾
Did you know thousands of pets go missing every year? The good news is that there are simple steps you can take to help ensure they make it safely back home.
This National Lost Pet Prevention Month, take a few minutes to:
🐶 Ensure your pet’s microchip details are up to date
🏷️ Check that their ID tag is current and easy to read
🔒 Make sure your fences, gates and doors are secure
🐕 Keep dogs on a lead when out and about
🐱 Keep cats safely contained or supervised outdoors where possible
A microchip is only as good as the information attached to it. If you’ve moved house or changed your phone number, now is the perfect time to update your details.
If you’re unsure whether your pet’s microchip information is current, our team is happy to scan your pet and help point you in the right direction.
Let’s work together to keep our furry family members safe and ensure every adventure ends with a happy trip home. 💚

❄️ Cooler weather doesn’t mean fleas and paralysis ticks disappear! 🐾
As the temperatures drop, it’s easy to think parasite season is over, but fleas and paralysis ticks can still pose a serious risk to your pets all year round.
🐶 Fleas can survive indoors and continue breeding in warm environments.
🕷️ Paralysis ticks remain active during many cooler months, especially here in Queensland, and just one tick can be life-threatening.
The good news? Protecting your pet is easy with year-round parasite prevention. We offer a range of options, including convenient 12-month tick prevention injections for dogs, so you can have peace of mind no matter the season.
If you’re unsure which prevention is best for your pet, our team is always happy to help.
📞 Give us a call on 5447 1679 or book an appointment to chat about the best parasite protection for your furry family member.

🦆 DID YOU KNOW: feeding ducks bread can actually hurt them?

Bread fills them up without providing any real nutrition, and leftover bread in our waterways causes algae blooms that harm fish and make native wildlife sick.

The kindest thing you can do is admire them from a distance and let them forage naturally. 💚

Check out Wildcare's infographic below for more information.

If you find sick, injured or abandoned wildlife, please call Wildcare's 24/7 ☎️ Hotline on 5527 2444.

➡️ Plenty of parking, as always.

So cross that bridge (or at least the part that's open) and come say hello!

H5 Avian Influenza (Bird Flu)

While the risk to most pets on the Sunshine Coast remains low, H5 Avian Influenza has been detected in Australia, making it a good time to take a few simple precautions.

🐦 Keep dogs and cats away from wild birds, especially waterbirds, and avoid contact with sick or dead birds.
🐾 If your pet has had contact with a sick or dead bird and becomes unwell, contact your veterinarian.
🪿If you find sick or dead wild birds in your area, avoid handling them and report them to Biosecurity Queensland. Record your location and report it to the 24-hour Emergency Animal Disease Hotline on 1800 675 888.

🐣Take extra precautions with domesticated bird flocks, including keeping them away from wild birds and maintaining good hand and cage hygiene.
