24.01.2022 "My girl Rosie, who gets regular dental cleans, was recently booked in for a Grade 1 Dental Clean. During this check, a slab tooth fracture was found and quickly treated. She is now happier than ever, and keeps her teeth clean with a dental diet and daily Greenies treats." Like humans, dental checks are SUPER important for long term health of teeth and gums. And, unlike humans, dogs cant always communicate the source of their pain. Always be on top of your dogs dental care routine.

24.01.2022 Missy breathes easier again Little Missy was rushed into PETstock VET North Lakes, as her family had noticed she was very quiet, not eating, and had started breathing with her mouth open. Dr Jess found she was unable to get enough oxygen from room air, so was immediately given medicine to help her relax, then placed into a special oxygen tent. Her examination found that she had dull-sounding lungs, difficulty breathing in, and a heart murmur. It was found that Missy h...ad a life-threatening build-up of fluid around her lungs called a pleural effusion (or water on the lungs). This made it impossible for her to inflate her lungs. As Missy deteriorated fast, Dr Jess performed an emergency thoracentesis, which is a sterile procedure where a needle is passed into the chest cavity to drain the fluid. Over 50ml of liquid was removed from her chest cavity! Once the fluid was removed, Missy immediately began to feel better and was transported to an emergency after-hours veterinary hospital for monitoring overnight. After an ultrasound, it was revealed that Missy had a heart condition called Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM). She started treatment immediately, and were happy to say that Missy has made a good recovery.

17.01.2022 Meet Frankie, the parrot. This little guy came into our North Lakes clinic with a painful, swollen foot. Through a quick investigation it was found that the source of swelling was due to a tight leg band, that was cutting off his circulation. Side note: Leg bands are often applied by breeders to identify chicks, but as the bird grows, the band can become dangerously tight. If not addressed early, birds can lose their feet. In this case, it was a smooth process of removing the band with a surgical drill, leaving Frankie much happier.

09.01.2022 Meet Tweety Tweety recently visited our PETstock VET Gosford Clinic after her owner noticed she was losing weight. Her physical examination was reasonably healthy, so Dr Emilee ran additional tests to check her faeces for parasites and a crop wash (flushing the crop and aspirating the contents to examine under the microscope). Her faecal float was clear, but the crop wash showed multiple pear-shaped mobile structures known as Trichomonas. ... Trichomoniasis or Canker are caused by a flagellated protozoan, which causes damage to the intestinal tract and crop. It can result in weight loss and vomiting.

07.01.2022 Did you know that out of the 42 teeth in your dogs mouth, we can only examine 34 of those teeth whilst they are awake? Archer, a registered Assistance Dog (swoon!) recently proved the value of a thorough dental examination under anesthetic. Booked in for a Grade 1 dental scale and polish at PETstock VET North Lakes, the most important part of Archers procedure was the oral examination. While Dr Jess checked his teeth, back of his throat, the roof of his mouth and under... his tongue, she noticed a growth on his gums. Archers mum wanted the very best for her special dog, so the lump was removed and sent away to a veterinary pathologist. Luckily for Archer, it was a benign growth, which only requires monitoring at this point - but it could have been much worse. Archer has now recovered well and is happily showing off his pearly whites

It was Dr Adrian Wallace, a registered specialist surgeon, who undertook the corrective surgery. After multiple procedures, including shortening her soft palate and widening of her nostrils, she recovered well. This beautiful girl was sent home the very same afternoon, and has since had a few post operation check ups. Shes back to her happy self!
