Meet the gorgeous Willow, this week’s superstar at Dogwood Referrals! 💖

Willow had a rare condition called Pes Varus, causing her leg to bend inward, something we occasionally see in dachshunds 🐶.

Working with Fusion Implants, we used custom-made guides to plan and perform surgery that straightened her leg with precision.
She’s now healing brilliantly and already back to her cheeky self! 💪💕

✨ Swipe to see her transformation!

Leave Willow some love in the comments!

The sound of a healing rabbit. 🙂‍↕️

Sir Binky came into our Woodstock practice for gut stasis. He was given some fluids and medications, with lots of yummy food so he could go home a happier bunny🐇

Flushing the Abscess 🥴This is done to excrete any further foreign bodies that could still be inside the wound and possibly cause the abscess reform. Once flushed we leave the site open or we place a drain to prevent fluid building back up in the area again causing the abscess to return ✨

Bear’s Abscess 🤢

Bear was in to see us as he had a rather large swelling under his jaw.
Once this was clipped and cleaned we discovered it to be a rather nasty abscess ! 🥴

Bear was then placed under a GA so we could investigate the abscess further, lancing and then flushing it to remove any remaining bacteria or debris.
It turns out a pesky grass seed had burrowed into his skin causing the reaction 🌾
See the separate video of us flushing his abscess !

His face is now fully healed and he is back to his handsome self 🥰

Say hello to Nandi and her babies ! 🥰

One of our lovely patients Nandi recently gave birth to a gorgeous litter of puppies, and as you can see she is extremely proud of herself (as she should be!) 🩷

Nandi has been an amazing mother and it’s a joy to see how grown up her babies now are compared to when they first came to visit ☺️

Everyone, meet Addie! 🐶

Addie popped in to see us as her owners were concerned about a lump that had appeared. After a careful examination, the team suggested Addie have surgery to remove the lump and she is now recovering and doing well.

If you're unsure, book a free check-up today.
Don’t just lump it, let’s check it.

Blue’s Lumpectomy 🩵
⚠️ GRAPHIC IMAGE ⚠️

Blue came in to see us for a complementary lump check, after checking her lump it was clear that removal was necessary.

Lumps that are bleeding, ruptured, growing or generally causing irritation to your pet are typically ones that are best removed 🫶🏽

Luckily, lumpectomy’s are a routine procedure for us and, often , simple with a quick recovery time. Once the lump is removed it can then be sent to an external lab for testing to see if further treatment is needed ✨

Blue was very proud of herself after her operation, and happily soaked up all the attention from the nurses 🩵

Today’s tiny visitor 🦇

This morning we had this little guy handed in having been found rather confused crawling about during the day time. 🥺

We set him up a little make shift home, and with the help of some sugary water, he was feeling much more energetic and ready for his journey to the rescue centre.

With time he will hopefully be released back home to the wild where he belongs ⛰️🏞️

Luna’s Laparoscopic Spay 🌺

A Laparoscopic Spay ( Lap Spay) is done via keyhole surgery.
This means that the surgery is considered minimally invasive and recovery time is generally quicker than in a routine spay. 🫶🏽

During Luna’s procedure , laparoscopic instruments are inserted into two key hole sized incisions, along with a camera so we can visualise her internal organs and locate the ovaries.
Unlike a routine spay, only the ovaries are removed and a cautery is used to detach them, this is believed to be less painful during recovery.

Luna is now fully healed and back to her happy self 🩷

Grass seeds 🌾

At this time of year Grass Seeds are causing many issues to our furry friends!

We commonly see pets in who have seeds in their paw pads, ears, eyes and nose but they can truly get themselves stuck anywhere and often surgery is needed to extract them 😩

To try to avoid this we suggest checking your pets after being outside especially checking common sites such as the ones listed above, if your pet is particularly cooperative then rinsing them in the shower or bath is also recommended 💚

Jazz’s Spa Day 💆🏽‍♀️

The handsome Jazz was in to see us last week in need of some beauty treatments, to remove a nasty lump on his head and give his teeth a quick scale and polish ✨

Jazz is a show dog and so his appearance means a lot to him, plus it is always important to get those lumps checked and teeth clean!

Did you know we are currently offering free lump checks to help with this? 🩷
