Spring is here, and while we’re freshening up our homes and gardens, it’s also a great time to check in on your pet.

Have you noticed your pet:

• Licking or chewing their paws
• Sneezing more than usual
• Developing a red or irritated belly
• Scratching, rubbing or seeming uncomfortable?

These signs can be linked to 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀, but fleas, mites and other parasites can also cause irritation and inflammation.

The tricky part is that ongoing scratching and licking can quickly lead to broken skin, secondary infections and a much more uncomfortable pet.

If your pet is showing any of these signs, book a check-up with our team so we can work out what’s causing it and help get them comfortable again.

And while you’re giving their health routine a spring clean, it’s worth checking their parasite protection too. 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲, 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗮𝗽𝗲𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗺, and the right protection can vary depending on your pet and lifestyle.

We’re happy to review what you’re currently using and advise on the most appropriate parasite protection for your pet.

🌼 Spring is much more enjoyable without the itch!

There was plenty of team support for this patient as they prepared to head into surgery for a TPLO, one of the most common orthopaedic procedures performed in dogs with a damaged cruciate ligament.

The cruciate ligament is an important ligament inside the knee that helps keep the joint stable. When it becomes damaged or ruptures, the knee can become painful and unstable, often causing limping, difficulty getting up or reluctance to exercise.

TPLO stands for Tibial Plateau Levelling Osteotomy. Rather than repairing the damaged ligament itself, the procedure changes the angle at the top of the tibia (shin bone) to alter the mechanics of the knee. This helps stabilise the joint when the dog is walking and reduces the need for the damaged ligament to do its job.

It might sound like a big procedure, but TPLO surgery can help dogs return to comfortable, active lives following their recovery and rehabilitation.

And, of course, no trip to theatre is complete without a little extra love from the Subiaco Vet team first.

Wishing our gorgeous patient a smooth recovery and plenty of comfortable walks ahead!

There are only a few days left to book your pet’s FREE dental check.

Dental disease can be painful, but pets are often very good at hiding discomfort. They may continue eating, playing and behaving normally even when there is significant disease in their mouth.

That’s why it’s worth having their teeth checked before there are obvious signs something is wrong.

Until 31 August, Subiaco Vet is offering:

🐾 FREE Dental Health Checks
🐾 10% OFF Dental Procedures

If it’s been a while since your pet’s teeth were checked, now is the perfect time.

Don’t leave dental pain too long. Book before Dental Month ends.

We’re very excited to welcome Lynley to the team at Subiaco Vet.

With more than 16 years of experience as a veterinary nurse, Lynley brings a wealth of knowledge, experience and a genuine lifelong love of animals to the role.

Growing up on a sheep farm in Wandering, animals were always a big part of life. From raising lambs as a child to building a career caring for pets and supporting their families, veterinary care has always been close to her heart.

These days, Lynley lives on two acres with her two grown children and two much-loved cats, Penny and Klaus. When she’s not at the clinic, she loves gardening, crafting, hiking, line dancing and a good dose of country music.

Lynley is looking forward to getting to know our wonderful clients and their furry family members, so please say hello next time you’re in the clinic!

We’re thrilled to have you with us, Lynley.

With recent reports of avian influenza, commonly known as bird flu, in wild birds in Western Australia, we wanted to share some simple advice for our Subiaco Vet community.

The risk to the general public remains low, but sick or dead wild birds should not be handled.

𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝗱:

• Do not touch or move it
• Keep dogs, cats and other pets away from the area
• Call the Emergency Animal Disease Hotline on 1800 675 888

If you are unable to reach the hotline and are unsure what to do next, please call Subiaco Vet on 9381 2291, and our team can help guide you.

Please share this with local pet owners so our community knows what to do without panic or confusion. Thank you for taking precautions and helping keep our pets and community safe.
