15.01.2022 Feature Case Miley. Miley was only a 4 month old miniature dachshund puppy when she visited us for the first time as she was not bearing weight on her left forelimb. Mileys x-rays showed that she had sustained a Salter Harris type 5 fracture to her ulna (one of her forelimb bones). Salter Harris fractures are fractures involving the growth plate of a bone, and can be classified as types 1 (I) to 5 (V) as shown in the photo.... Damage to growth plates before natural closure may hinder further bone development and growth in puppies. In Mileys case, if her radius bone kept growing while her ulna had stopped, her forelimb may develop a valgus limb deformity (outward angulation of the limb). Mileys leg was splinted and bandaged to provide support, and she required weekly rechecks and bandage changes every second week, with repeat x-rays along the way. Her very dedicated owner was also given the difficult task of keeping her activity restricted. One month after Mileys injury, she was doing very well, but her limb was showing abnormal angulation. Dr Cindy performed an ulnar ostectomy; a surgical procedure where a portion of the ulna is removed. This allowed the radius to continue growing correctly without restraint from a shortened ulna, thus avoiding bowing of the leg. Further x-rays taken another 1 month post op showed good healing and no further progression of the angular limb deformity. With that, Miley was given the okay to slowly have her activity allowances increased again. It was a long journey for Miley, but both her and her owner did a wonderful job during those few months!

15.01.2022 Welcome to Fii's Fun Fact Friday's also known as FFFF Where I will make your Friday's a little bit better to get you through to the weekend Let's begin with Mr Rhino

15.01.2022 Its World Elephant Day! Theyre the worlds largest land mammal. Males only reach their full size at 35-40 years - thats well over half their lifespan as wild elephants can live for up to 60- 70 years.... At birth elephants can weigh 120kg. Elephants have around 150,000 muscle units in their trunk. Making their trunks perhaps the most sensitive organ found in any mammal. An elephants skin is 2.5cm thick in most places. The folds and wrinkles in their skin can retain up to 10 times more water than flat skin does, which helps to cool them down. Elephants need up to 150kg of food per day thats around 375 tins of baked beans although half of this may leave the body undigested. They eat so much that they can spend up to three-quarters of their day eating. The elephants temporal lobe (the area of the brain associated with memory) is larger and denser than that of people - hence the saying elephants never forget. And a little bit of fun for your Wednesday. Q. Why couldnt the two elephants go swimming together? A. Because they only had one pair of trunks!

14.01.2022 Another cutie for your viewing pleasure, here is Mr Harry! Those eyebrows though....

10.01.2022 Coco came into the clinic recently for a sterilisation procedure, and much to the owners surprised Coco was actually a male! Coco was such a star patient for the day. Its crucial that rabbits commence eating straight after any procedure to ensure their stomachs are continuously processing food. This is why they arent fasted before surgery like our cat and dog friends. Coco had no trouble after surgery, he started eating as soon as there was food in front of his face.

10.01.2022 Well done Boris!

10.01.2022 This is Kimchi waiting patiently to go home after her desexing procedure last week (possibly waiting for a treat too ).

07.01.2022 Weve been seeing lots of new puppies and kittens in the clinic this month and were reminding them all that now is the best time to introduce your pet to tooth brushing.

Not sure how to go about brushing your pets teeth? Feel free to call our friendly team on 9447 4644 or ask one of our staff when you are next in for a check up.
