πΎ From one of our smaller canine patients to one of our largest πΎ
πΆ Oscar came in for his vaccinations and is pictured here with one of our wonderful nurses Helen.
πΆ Hugo, pictured with Chloe our animal care assistant, was with us for a dental procedure today and was determined to prove to us that heβs actually a lap dog in disguise.
πΎ Lenny and his 56 hairbands πΎ
πββ¬ Lenny came in this morning having been vomiting over the last couple of days. He had vomited up a few hairbands and his stomach felt distinctly abnormal on palpation so he was promptly admitted for imaging to assess the situation.
πββ¬ The 3rd photo shows his X-ray- confirming that Lenny had indeed been snacking on one to many hairbands.
πββ¬ The second photo shows the 56 hairbands removed from his stomach during surgery. Now Iβm not sure if thereβs a world record for this kind of thing but if there is Iβm sure he would be a very strong challenger!
πββ¬ Some of these hairbands had probably been in his stomach for months, if not years, they were in various stages of decay having been exposed to the acid of the stomach.
πββ¬ Removal of foreign objects from the guts of pets is a relatively common occurrence, although admittedly itβs more frequently seen in our canine patients than feline. Hairbands are more commonly seen to cause issues in cats, alongside items like string and ribbon. Whereas socks, corn on the cob husk and towels are more commonly found in the guts of our canine patients.
πΎ We hope you all have a lovely weekend. If you need us at all this weekend we have a wonderful team at our bury practice ready help if needed.
