Bacteria be gone!!

You can really see the build up of plaque and bacteria on those back teeth in the before photo here!

Not only would this be smelling foul, it also causes inflammation and irritation to the gums, rots the teeth and spreads that bacteria throughout the body!

Thankfully after an ultrasonic scale and polish with us, that bacteria is long gone and beautiful, healthy teeth and gums take its place.

Book your pets free dental check now and let us take care of this nasty bacteria before it does too much damage!

A pile of very exhausted puppies after their vaccination visit with Dr Abby!!

These kids tired themselves out during their consultation, and barely even noticed their vaccination needles being done.

They were more then happy to get cuddles and chill out on the couch as they waited for their siblings to have their turn with the vet.

We can arrange long consultations for litters of puppies and kittens at a discounted rate, just give us a call on 4151 3550 and ask about our litter packages!

The bravest (and cutest) brother and sister duo Bill & Rosie came in for their annual vaccinations and had a Heartworm Test too!

They were so very brave for all their needles, and literally smiled through the whole process, how good is that?!

With Heartworm Disease being diagnosed weekly at our hospital at the moment, we're really trying to encourage Heartworm Tests for any pets who have not been on very regular Heartworm Prevention their entire lives.

Heartworm Disease shows no symptoms until extremely advanced, so these tests are often the difference between life and death.

Not sure if your pet has been on prevention their whole lives? Give us a call on 4151 3550 and we can schedule a quick Heartworm Test!

At Sugarland Animal Hospital we recommend desexing at 6 months of age for most patients! Desexing can help prevent cancers, reduce unwanted behaviour plus reduce the number of unwanted pets in local pounds! We always perform a vet check prior to desexing, so our vets can chat about your pets individual needs and make recommendations from there. #vetnurse #vetnurselife #bundabergvet #bundaberg #exoticvet #petfacts #veteducation #pethacks #petparent #vettechlife #vettech #veterinarian #vetlife #vetmed #vet #dogstagram #dog

We love providing you with satisfying before
& afters of our patients!

This time we're looking at a before and after of an Ear Pluck performed under general anaesthetic! 👂

Ear Plucks are often beneficial for pets with ongoing ear issues such as ear infections, it helps to remove all the hair that can trap dirt and debris and lead to infection.

Having an ear pluck also makes it easier to clean the ear and administer ear medication, without it getting caught in the build up of hair before it can actually reach where it needs to within the ear!

We can add an ear pluck to your pets procedures under general anaesthetic such as dental or desexing surgeries, or we can perform them as their own procedure.

Just ask our team at your next visit if this is something that could benefit your pet, or book a consultation online to discuss further!

Storm Season is really here in the Bundy region, and this can mean highly stressful times for our pets! 🌩️

Many pets suffer from "storm anxiety or storm phobia" which can result in hiding, pacing, panting and escaping behaviours which can put our pets lives at risk.

If your pet suffers from this we have a couple of suggestions to help keep them calm and safe during storm season:

- Thunder Jackets (as modelled by Dr Abby's dog Jack) are a great place to start, these are created for dogs with anxiety and the tight-fitting jacket has been proven to help calm dogs during stressful times. These can be brought from most pet shops or online.

- Creating a secure place, with adequate fence heights or placing your pet indoors with background noise like leaving the tv on during stormy days can help to alleviate some anxiety and keep them safe

- Make sure your pet is microchipped and the details are up-to-date so if your pet does escape during a storm, they can be quickly returned to you

- Place an ID tag on your pets collar with your phone number and any medical conditions, so if your pet becomes lost during a storm they can be attended to and reunited with you ASAP

- Doggy daycare is also a great option, we offer this weekdays at our hospital. For days where storms are forecast if you will be out all day it may be a good idea to drop them off with us for daycare

- Medications can be helpful in severe cases of storm phobia, we recommend a behavioural consult with our vets to discuss these options and find a right fit for your pet

Just give our team a call on 4151 3550 and we can discuss these options in more detail, or book a consultation online here: https://olsau.appointmaster.com/#?AID=d8brod359GatO5TEtF79A8EEL&cl=1

How gorgeous are these siblings Remi & Pumba 😻😻

This brother & sister pair spent the day with us on Monday getting their teeth cleaned and their coats clipped!

They went home looking and feeling amazing with fresh breath, healthy gums and a stylish haircut too.

As we come into the warmer months, what better time to get your cats coat clipped and their teeth cleaned while they are under anaesthetic, so they can go into summer feeling comfortable and cool.

With our current dental offer you can also receive 10% off your pets dental procedures, just call 4151 3550 or click here for more info: https://sugarlandvet.lpages.co/dental-promo-2021/

PARVOVIRUS WARNING!!

We have had a 7 month old dog test POSITIVE for Parvovirus today.

We urge everyone to please check their dogs vaccine status and if they have not had their annual vaccination please book this in ASAP.

This poor dog did not make it, and it is a harsh reminder of the severity of this deadly, extremely contagious disease.

No dog deserves to go through Parvovirus, it is excruciatingly painful and the treatment (which does not always work) is lengthy and expensive.

The best thing to do is PREVENT Parvo all together by vaccinating your dog.

Vaccine recommendations:
Puppies require 3 x vaccinations
- 6-8 weeks
- 10-12 weeks
- final vaccination at 16 weeks

Adult dogs require an initial vaccination and a booster 4 weeks later, then one vaccine every 12 months.

If you are unsure about your dogs level of protection, please call us on 4151 3550 and we can help work out a protection plan.

Parvovirus can be transmitted on shoes and clothes and can live in soil for over 5 years, so even if your dog does not leave the house, you can still walk Parvo right to them if they are not vaccinated.

Two cool cats Elijah & Cooper hanging out in our cat friendly consult room during their recent visit with Dr Abby

These brothers were recently adopted together from the RSPCA and have settled into their new home brilliantly.

At just over 2 years old these boys have a long, happy future ahead of them with their forever family and we couldn't be happier for them to be able to spend it together!

Have you adopted a sibling pair of cats? It's a great way to ensure they get along when you bring them home and to provide company and entertainment for one another.
