Important information regarding paralysis tick. If your pets are not up to date, please ensure they get covered 🥰

🚨 Tick Paralysis Alert - Daylesford, Victoria 🚨

Our Emergency team at Geelong Animal Referral Services recently treated a case of tick paralysis referred by their local vet. What made this case particularly interesting was that the Wolf Hound hadn't travelled to any tick-prone areas.

As we see an increase in tick cases outside typical risk zones, it’s important to stay vigilant. Here’s what you can do:

❇️ Update your tick prevention – Ensure your pet is on the best prevention plan. Unsure about the right option? Reach out to a vet for advice.

🚨 Signs of tick paralysis to watch for:

- Weakness or wobbliness in the back legs
- Difficulty standing or walking
- Vomiting or drooling
- Laboured breathing
- Loss of coordination

If you notice any of these symptoms, contact us for advice right away!
