Meet Vadar! A young Shih Tzu Mixed who was referred to us by Southern Cross Veterinarians-Bellmere after a history of recurrent urinary stones.

After two separate surgeries to remove urinary stones, Vadar underwent further investigation as to why he kept developing stones at such a young age. Young puppies developing recurrent urinary stones can be an indicator of a portosystemic shunt – a blood vessel that fails to regress after birth which results in blood bypassing the liver. This blood does not get filtered and can lead to a number of clinical signs, like drowsiness, neurologic signs (e.g., seizures), poor growth and development of urinary stones. When Vadar arrived, our team performed a CT scan which confirmed an extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (EHPSS) and surgery to correct this was recommended.

Led by Dr Alecia Evans, our Surgery team at North Lakes placed an ameroid constrictor around the shunt. This device will gradually close the vessel over the coming weeks, redirecting the blood flow and helping Vadar’s liver function normally. The surgery went smoothly and he’s been closely monitored for any post-operative complications.

Vadar is now home and settling in well. We can’t wait to see him continue to thrive!

Just went for a swim or hit the hydro bath like our gorgeous Shepherd Sammi? Don’t forget the towel time!

Drying your doggo after swimming isn’t just about avoiding that wet dog smell — it helps prevent skin irritation, hot spots and the dreaded ear infection that drives your doggo crazy!

Pro tips:
• Towel dry thoroughly (especially armpits, belly and between their toes)
• Use a pet-safe dryer on low heat if needed
• Always dry ears well or pair with a vet recommended ear cleaner with drying agent to ensure no trapped water remains in the ear


Questions about skin or ear care? We’re always happy to help
