Diabetes is a much more common condition in dogs than many realise, with an estimated 1 in every 300 dogs diagnosed with diabetes.

Diabetes mostly affects middle-aged and older dogs, with most dogs diagnosed between 7-9 years of age.

Itโ€™s important that diabetes in dogs is diagnosed and managed as early as possible to avoid long-term damage. Read on to find out the key risk factors, symptoms to look out for and treatment options.

There are a number of symptoms that may indicate your dog may have diabetes:

โ—๏ธIncreased thirst
โ—๏ธWeight loss
โ—๏ธExcessive urination
โ—๏ธChange in appetite
โ—๏ธLethargy
โ—๏ธCataracts
โ—๏ธRepeat urinary tract infections

While diabetes in dogs cannot be cured, the disease can be managed to enable your pet to lead a happy and long life. The management of diabetes requires some life-long changes, including daily administering of insulin and sometimes change to your poochโ€™s lifestyle.

As with most illnesses โ€“ in people and pets โ€“ prevention is better than cure. Feeding your dog a balanced diet, managing their weight and making appointments for regular health checks at the vet are all positive steps in helping reduce their risk of developing diabetes and other diseases.

If youโ€™re ever concerned that your dog may be displaying possible signs of diabetes, the experienced vets at Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital are here to help. You can call us on 03 9555 4808.

Have you recently welcomed a puppy into your household?
 
Socialisation is one of the most important stages of your puppyโ€™s development and will help shape the way they interact with other dogs and people as they grow up 

However, until your pup is fully immunised, itโ€™s important that you take steps to keep them safe from potentially deadly diseases such as parvovirus and kennel cough while you expose them to the outside world.

With so many different types of dog food out there โ€“ and lots of opinions about what is best โ€“ it can be difficult to know what you should feed your dog.
 
For optimal health and wellbeing, dogs need a balance of:
โœ… ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ป to build and maintain strong muscles and keep their body functioning well
โœ… ๐—–๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฏ๐—ผ๐—ต๐˜†๐—ฑ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐˜€ to provide energy

โœ… ๐—ฉ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜€ & ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—น๐˜€ for a strong immune system and healthy bones

๐—›๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ ๐—œ ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ผ๐—ผ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—บ๐˜† ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ด?
For our clients at Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital, we tend to recommend premium brands over supermarket offerings. Dog food that you find in the supermarket is typically not as โ€œcompleteโ€, and contains fillers to bulk out the food. More premium brands offer a more balanced diet with additional minerals and vitamins, have a money-back guarantee if your pet doesnโ€™t like it.

That said, we do understand that everyoneโ€™s budget is different. Our vets are always happy to discuss a tailored nutritional plan for your pet and recommend the best-quality food to suit your budget.

There is no hard and fast answer when it comes to wet versus dry foods. Dry food is convenient, economical, and good for your petโ€™s teeth. However wet food is a great way to get some extra water into your pooch, and they will most likely find it tastier.
 
Most people decide on a combination of both, offering a small amount of wet food as โ€œdinnerโ€, and dry food at other times of the day.
 
๐—ก๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜€๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ด?
While there are lots of myths and misinformation when it comes to the food best for your dog, the vets at Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital have extensive expertise in pet nutrition and are here to help. Every dog is different, so we are always very happy to discuss with you the best nutritional plan for your dog that suits their age, lifestyle, health and your budget.

A trip to the vet can be a pretty overwhelming experience for a cat.

Itโ€™s often one of the few times they are placed into a carrier and have to travel in a car, so itโ€™s little wonder that they find the whole ordeal quite stressful.

But it doesnโ€™t have to be that way. Here at Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital, we work really hard to make sure our clinic environment calm and welcoming for your pet. Add in a little bit of preparation from you, and your catโ€™s next trip to the vet can be a stress-free experience.
 
If your cat is particularly nervous, please call us on 03 9555 4808 to discuss some extra strategies that we can put in place to help them during their consultation.

Pets โ€“ like people โ€“ are becoming fatter. In fact, close to half of all pet dogs and a third of cats in Australia are classed are being overweight or obese.
 
While pet obesity is becoming increasingly common, there are significant consequences. If your pet is overweight, they have an increased risk of developing serious health complications and will also likely have a lower life expectancy.

๐—›๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ ๐—œ ๐—ธ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—ถ๐—ณ ๐—บ๐˜† ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜?
Many pet owners don't realise that they have an overweight pet until it is pointed out by their vet.
 
Pets are typically considered overweight if they weight over 10% more than their ideal bodyweight, and obese if they are more than 20% over their ideal weight.
 
A few things that you can keep an eye on include:
โ“Is your petโ€™s stomach rounded or sagging with weight?
โ“Can you feel your petโ€™s ribs?
โ“ Is their waist visible?
โ“ Are they carrying extra weight at the base of their tail?

๐—›๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—œ ๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ฝ ๐—บ๐˜† ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐—น๐—ผ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜?
The key advice for weight loss is the same for pets as it is for people โ€“ eat less and move more. However, it isnโ€™t always that simple, however this is where your vet can help. Your vet will be able to provide you with individualised, specific advice regarding diet and exercise based on your petโ€™s age, breed and lifestyle.
 
The Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital are pet owners themselves and understand that it can be a difficult balance to keep your cat or dog at their ideal weight. Itโ€™s important to know that if your vet classes your pet as being overweight, this is not a judgment of you as a pet owner but is simply your vet wanting your dog or cat to live their healthiest โ€“ and longest โ€“ possible life.
 
Our experienced vets are here to help keep your pet in top shape with lots of practical advice in regard to diet and exercise.
 
To book an appointment, call us on 03 9555 4808, or drop into the clinic at 328 South Road, Hampton East.

Did you know that dog parks are one of the most common places where your pup could be infected with intestinal worms? A recent study showed that 43% of all dog parks in Melbourne were found to be contaminated with canine intestinal worms. 

Worms can cause a range of health issues in dogs if left untreated. They can even cause health risks to people if transmitted from their pets.
 
๐—›๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ธ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—ถ๐—ณ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ด ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜€ ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—บ๐˜€?
Different worms can cause different symptoms in dogs, so your pooch may display one or many of the symptoms listed below:

โ—๏ธWeight loss
โ—๏ธEnlarged belly
โ—๏ธVomiting
โ—๏ธDiarrhoea
โ—๏ธLethargy
โ—๏ธCoughing
โ—๏ธItchy bottom

If your dog is displaying any of the above symptoms, itโ€™s important that you get them checked out by your vet. They will be able to run a series of tests, including laboratory testing of your dogโ€™s faeces to detect any signs of worm eggs, or other health issues.
 
Prevention is the best option when it comes to worms, with a wide range of very effective dog worming tablets and dewormers readily available. Combined flea and worm treatments are a popular option, along with treatments that provide protection against both intestinal worms and heartworm. 

If you are unsure which product is best for your dog, your vet can assist with recommending the most appropriate treatment option.
 
Pet owners should also ensure good hand hygiene practices after disposing of dog faeces or visiting a dog park to minimise the risk of transmission of worms.

If you have any questions about the best way to prevent worms, or any other aspect of your dogโ€™s health, our friendly team are available seven days a week. You can call our Hampton East vet clinic on 03 9555 4808 or book an appointment online via the link in our bio.

Itโ€™s not surprising that dogs are capable of learning hundreds of human words. After all, say the words โ€œwalkiesโ€ or โ€œdinnerโ€ and all dogs will know exactly what you mean.
 
But can you speak dog?
 
While every dog has their own special way of communicating, here are a few general tips to help interpret what your dog is trying to say when they bark.
 
๐Ÿถ ๐—” ๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฟ-๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฝ, ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐—ฑ ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ธ = Iโ€™m unsure or worried

๐Ÿถ ๐—ฆ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ, ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐—ฑ ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ธ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด = Whoโ€™s there? Usually at someone walking past your house
๐Ÿถ ๐—” โ€œ๐˜†๐—ถ๐—ฝโ€ ๐˜€๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ฑ = Iโ€™m surprisedโ€ฆor hey, youโ€™ve stepped on my tail!

๐Ÿถ ๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐˜๐—ถ๐˜๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ, ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ธ๐˜€ = Iโ€™m excited!

Body language and context can also help you to pinpoint exactly what your dog is trying to communicate with you.

Easter eggs can be very tempting for pets, but even a small amount can have devastating consequences.

Chocolate is poisonous to cats and dogs and is one of the most common reasons people need to make an emergency visit to the vet over the Easter long weekend. 

Exactly how unwell they will get depends on the type and quantity eaten compared to their body weight but eating chocolate can prove fatal without treatment. 

๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ ๐—ถ๐—ณ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜€ ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ผ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ
If your dog or cat has eaten an easter egg, or you think that they have, itโ€™s important to bring them to your vet immediately. Your vet will be able to assess what treatment your pet may require, depending on the amount of chocolate eaten. 

Typical treatment involves the inducement of vomiting to remove all traces of the toxic chemical theobromine found in chocolate.
 
๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜€๐˜†๐—บ๐—ฝ๐˜๐—ผ๐—บ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ผ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด?
Dogs and cats can be sneaky creatures, and often you wonโ€™t be aware that they have snaffled an egg or two until they start to show signs of being unwell.

Symptoms typically appear 6-12 hours after ingestion and can include:
โš  Vomiting
โš  Diarrhoea
โš  Muscle twitching
โš  Drinking a lot
โš  Dribbling
 
The best way to keep your pet safe this Easter break is to store your eggs out of reach in the fridge.
 
If you suspect that your cat or dog has eaten chocolate over Easter, or they become unwell, our veterinary hospital is open every day over the Easter holidays except for Good Friday. You can call us on 03 9555 4808.

While a snoring dog can be a pretty cute sound to listen to (or not, depending on how loud it is!), should you be worried? Well, it dependsโ€ฆ

There are a number of reasons your dog is a snorer.
 
1๏ธโƒฃ ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ฟ ๐—ฏ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ
Some breeds are more predisposed to snoring. Brachycephalic dogs - such as pugs, bulldogs and boxers - have shorter noses, which means their airways are shorter, and as a result, causes them to snore.

2๏ธโƒฃ ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ๐˜†โ€™๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฟ๐˜†๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐˜€๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ ๐—ฒ๐˜…๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฎ ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜
Just like humans, weight is also a key factor in snoring decibels. Because extra fat is impacting your dogโ€™s air passage, their airways can become blocked, which equals snoring.

3๏ธโƒฃ ๐—ฆ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ฟ ๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐˜†๐˜€
Snoring can also be caused by allergies such as dust, pollen or other irritants around the home. The inflammation caused by these allergies can limit airflow, leading to snoring. 

4๏ธโƒฃ ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐˜† ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐˜† ๐˜€๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ
Sleeping can also impact snoring. Back sleepers are often chronic snorers โ€“ this is due to their lounge rolling into their throat when they lay on their back, again obstructing their air passage. A gentle nudge to change their sleeping position can often stop positional snoring.

โš ๏ธ๐—ฆ๐˜‚๐—ฑ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐—ฆ๐—ป๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด
If your dog starts to snore after years of silence, then a trip to the vet is necessary. Your dog may be suffering from an infection, an allergy or inflammation from an irritant, and it is important to get the cause of the sudden snoring checked out.

If youโ€™re ever concerned about your dogโ€™s health, then itโ€™s important to get them checked over by a vet.

Puppies offer so much joy and unconditional love wrapped up in a cute and furry package. However, itโ€™s not all playing fetch and snuggles - adding a puppy to your household is a big responsibility and a decision that shouldnโ€™t be made lightly.
 
If youโ€™re thinking about getting a puppy, we recommend that you consider these 5 things first:
 
๐Ÿถ A dog is a long-term and costly commitment
๐Ÿถ The puppy stage is hard!
๐Ÿถ Donโ€™t be in a rush โ€“ research everything!
๐Ÿถ Does your lifestyle suit the puppy you want?
๐Ÿถ Can you commit your time to look after a dog?

While puppies can be quite time-consuming and costly, having pets in your life can offer endless amounts of joy.
 
If you do decide to find yourself that perfect pooch, we will be there to help guide you along the way and look after them throughout all their life stages.

A cat is considered to be a "senior" once they reach 11 years of age โ€“ which is around 60 in human years.
 
Just like people, as your cat gets older, they begin to experience a range of age-related changes, including reduced energy, change in appetite, and vulnerability to illness and other health issues.
 
Itโ€™s important that you provide your senior cat with some extra care and TLC to keep them happy and comfortable as they move into their golden years.
 
๐Ÿˆ Book in regular health check-ups
๐Ÿˆ Preventative dental care is key
๐Ÿˆ Discuss their diet with your vet
๐Ÿˆ Adapt your home environment
๐Ÿˆ Help your cat with grooming
