*Warning graphic images* Poor Saul got hold of a large bar of milk chocolate today and needed our help! Calculating this to be a potential toxic dose of theobromine, the active ingredient in chocolate that dogs don’t metabolise very well, he was rushed to the clinic to empty his stomach using an emetic called apomorphine. Once the vomiting had subsided, he was dispensed an absorbent, activated charcoal gel, to help prevent any theobromine uptake from the gut. Fortunately, most dogs are bought in promptly enough to avoid any symptoms, and Saul was discharged after a short stay to be monitored at home. Please make sure any chocolate is kept out of reach of your dog! 🐶🍫😔

At Whisker & Woof, we give each and every pet under our care a bespoke plan to help overcome any healthcare issues they may have. We know that many problems are insidious and often hidden from owners, so we actively screen for these during our consults and make recommendations to manage them. After helping Sky with her arthritis, gastrointestinal signs and dental disease, she’s had a new lease of life. Listen to Sky’s story here. 🐶 😊 👏🏻

Dog bite injuries are serious and need careful management. There is a shear and crush injury to the underlying tissues, most commonly over the head and chest area. The extent of the injury is often not apparent until several days after the incident. Surgery is nearly always essential to patient care, removing dead and damaged tissue, and allowing the body to heal. See Bob’s story here 😮🐶🩷

Here’s a short video of Little Bear who came to see us yesterday with a history of intermittent strange snorting episodes. We made a provisional diagnosis of “reverse sneezing”, a respiratory symptom secondary to inflammation in the back of the nose and throat. Normally there’s not much to be worried about, and mild signs don’t require treatment at all. For more sustained reverse sneezing, treatment can be provided in the form of antihistamines. On rare occasions, endoscopic examination of the nose and throat is recommended. Please let us know if you need any help if your dog has reverse sneezing. 🤧 🐕🙏🏻

Feeding tubes are a life-saving part of patient management when pets are unable to eat and medical management has not been effective. Here we see Baloo with an oesophagostomy tube placed under general anaesthesia on the left side of the neck. These tubes are comfortable for the pet, relatively quick and easy to place and remove, and have a bore size that is easy for liquid critical-care diets to move down. Owners can readily use them at home too, which means the pet can often be managed at home which helps their recovery. 😽👩‍⚕️👏🏻
