20.01.2022 Blood Donors Wanted Just like in human medicine, blood can be life saving for other pets in need. Busta is a perfect example of one of our regular donor dogs! He is such a good boy and always sits patiently while his blood is collected. We are always looking for both dog and cat blood donors. However, there are some key requirements that these life saving animals must meet. Dogs must:... Weigh more than 25 kg Be between 1 - 8 years old Be up to date on all vaccinations and heartworm treatment Have no serious illnesses or long term medications Have a calm nature Cats must: Be of larger build (minimum 4.5kg) Be up to date on preventative medications Have a calm temperament (ideal but not essential) Be less than 10 years old Your pet will receive a free blood screen before each donation, complimentary blood typing (handy in the future if they require a transfusion themselves), intravenous fluid therapy for a period after donation and a clinic credit. If you think your pet would make a great donor, please send us a message or call us on: (02) 4283 8432.

15.01.2022 Respiratory Distress In Birds Rikki is a 12 year old cockatiel who presented to ARH struggling to breathe. Dr Alex suspected that she may have inhaled smoke or Teflon poisoning. Rikki's pet-parents acted quickly in this situation which contributed to her quick recovery. Birds are very susceptible to inhaled chemicals and fumes. Whenever you cook with non-stick cookware (or if you accidentally burn dinner) it is recommended to open windows and not have your birds in any rooms... near the kitchen while you cook. Thankfully Rikkie responded well to antibiotics and oxygen therapy in our speciality Avian oxygen incubators. If your bird is struggling to breathe then it is an emergency and you should seek immediate veterinary attention. 02) 4283 8432 See more
