25.01.2022 Surgery success Six month old Australian Bulldog, Lainie, recently visited PETstock Waurn Ponds for BOAS surgery. - BOAS stands for Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome. It is a group of conditions resulting from the body conformation of the squishy faced breeds, as they quite often have a shortened head in relation to their airway passage. Due to their conformation, they struggle to breathe, especially during exercising, and are often more prone to collapsing an...d overheating. Lainie's parents had already completed research on this type of surgery well before she reached six months of age, and decided it was the right way forward. 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. She's back to her happy self!

24.01.2022 Meet Gypsy A new mum who was brought into our PETstock VET Gosford clinic after she was struggling to deliver her kittens. After being admitted to our clinic, X-rays confirmed Gypsy had two babies still in her stomach, which she was unable to deliver. Dr Leah and Dr Graeme decided to perform a C-section to ensure the safe delivery of the remaining two kittens. All was a success during the procedure, with the entire kitten crew now safe and healthy. We love an ending (or beginning) like this

24.01.2022 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. With quick diagnosis and treatment, Miss Tweety should recover well with some antibiotics. Another day, another beautiful patient

17.01.2022 "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 can't always communicate the source of their pain. Always be on top of your dog's dental care routine.

16.01.2022 Poor Kasey visited our PETstock VET Cannington clinic recently, after a very nasty wound to her thigh. It was unknown how the injury occurred, but it was quickly stitched up on the first visit. Unfortunately, due to the location of injury (which sees lots of movement of the skin), Kasey returned the very next day with wound dehiscence, and breakdown had occurred The team at Cannington re-sutured the wound and Penrose drain placed. The very same thing happened after the se...cond visit. So, with some creative thinking, Dr Ivan provided Kasey with a tie-over bandage - success! Kasey has since been visiting for bandage changes but is well on the way to recovery

02.01.2022 Meet Millie, who recently visited for a routine spay During surgery, as Dr Abbie White was examining the gastrointestinal tract, she felt an unusual firm swollen section of the intestine. Dr Abbie explored further and discovered a foreign object. This ended up being seed from a peach, which had somehow lodged itself in the intestine. ... What was supposed to be a routine spay turned into a spay and laparotomy. Lucky for Millie the seed was identified, and she has now fully recovered
