ANVH EP - 26 Pyrethrum poison on cat 除蟲菊中毒

Our team had received a phone call during the midnight, said that their cat start to stroking/cranking after applied the dewormer.

Once Dr heard this scenario, instructed the O bring the cat immediately, because this case highly chance is pyrethrum poison!!

Feline unable to metabolize the pyrethrum, or any product which has this content. Pyrethrum is safe for dog, but not cat. So the most common situation is that O accidiently applied the wrong product to the cat.(Apply dog dewormer to cat)

The symptom include drooling, vomiting, anxiety, shaking, unable to stand up/walk properly, seizure, difficult to breath, and death.

So what shuld we do? Send to the animal hospital right away, this is a real urgent situation. The earlier treat it, the better prognosis.

How we treat it? We will trim the hair around applied area, bath the cat, sedate the patient if necessary, and give supportive treatment.
Most of case can recover within 2-3 days.

If your cats have similar contidion, please contact your family vet as soon as possible.
===========================================
今天要跟大家分享的病例是除蟲菊中毒!!

醫院半夜接到電話,主人說她的貓在點完驅蟲藥後開始抽搐,問藥不會要送來醫院?
醫生一聽到後叫主人馬上送來,因為這高概率是除蟲菊中毒了!!

貓科動物是不能代謝除蟲菊的,或者任何含有這成分的產品,除蟲菊對狗來說是相對安全的,所以最常見的狀況是主人意外的用到狗的驅蟲產品在貓的身上

臨床症狀會包括流口水,嘔吐,焦慮,顫抖,無法站立或走路,癲癇,呼吸困難,嚴重的病例會死亡

所以最好的處理的方式是送到醫院,這是一個生命攸關的急診,越早接受治療,預後越好

我們臨床上怎摸治療呢? 會把滴藥的地方剃毛剃掉,洗澡(把藥劑盡可能的洗掉),鎮靜(視情況)並給予支持治療,大部分的病例在2-3天內會恢復正常

如果你的貓咪有類似的症狀,請盡早聯絡你的家庭獸醫

ANVH EP - 25 Anal gland rupture 肛門腺破裂

"Dr.!! my dog's butt is bleeding!! and seems unable to poop!!"

Anal gland or anal sacs are a small gland located at 5 and 7 clock direction around anus. Anal gland havung a foul odor, usually need to be emptied every 2-3 month.

If you don't empty the anal gland regularly, it will cause inflammation/abscess or rupture eventually.

The clinical symptom will be scooting, licking it's bum area, you can see the bruise or abscess(this case)/redness and swollen around the skin; and constipation(too pain to poop)

How we treat it? If there's anal gland rupture, we need to sedate the patient, drain out the discharge and disinfect the wound, plus oral meds. Apply topical ointment and the lesion will be healed. For some severe cases, may need to do surgery to close the wound.

If your dog/cat have the similar symptom, please contact your family vet.
===========================================
"醫生!! 我的狗屁股流血啦!!! 而且很像不敢大便捏!!"

肛門腺是一個位於肛門周圍5-7點鐘方向的腺體,有腥臭味的棕色液體,通常每2-3個月要清潔一次(擠肛門腺)

肛門腺如果沒有定期清理,會導致發炎/膿瘍,很嚴重的case甚至會破裂

肛門腺如果有問題臨床症狀通常為磨屁股,一直想去舔肛門周圍,有瘀青/膿瘍/紅疹,而且會便秘(因為疼痛而不敢大便)

我們怎摸治療呢? 如果肛門腺已經破裂,我們會鎮靜動物,然後清理/消毒傷口,藥膏局部治療加上口服藥消炎,通常5-7天內傷口會癒合;某些嚴重的case必續局部的縫合手術

如果你的犬貓有類似的問題,請立即聯絡你的家庭獸醫

ANVH EP - 24 The difference between TW vet and CA vet

After years of practice in Canada, Dr have summerized the difference between TW vet and CA vet. Share with the owner who have lived in both countries.

1. Emergency cases: in CA, usually not that severe, but the owner is very sensitive, once notice that dog/cat is bit abnormal or discomfort, owner will bring the pet to hospital immediately; on the other hand, TW owner ususally wait until the pet is almost in shock/lethal condition, then bring to hospital, and ask is it really that severe? can't you just give it a shot and make it better?

2. Specialist system: In North America, vet has specialist system, so GP(general practice) can refer to specialist to consult the further complicated disease/conditions. So most GP in CA do routine surgery and preventive medication. And the specialist do the most complicated cases. This make the medical resource ditstribution unevenly.

3. The obedient of medical instruction: In CA, most of time owners will follow the Dr. instruction to finish the medication or when to come bacj for recheck. In TW, owners are more like stop the medication autimatically or no show the appointment.

4. Raw diet: In CA, owners are mouch more common to feed their dog air-dried/frozen dried, or commercial raw diet. And think the dry food/can food is unhealthy to the pet.

5. In house lab equipment: In CA, most GP doesn't have full in house lab equipment, either they have it but doesn't use or just have the basic one. They are more common send the sample out to reference lab, instead of in house examination. In TW, like a weapon competition, over 90% of animal hospital have full in house lab, plus many fancy toys.

6. Ecosystem of sales man: In CA, the sales man who want to sell hosital their new product or consumption, they only visit once, if you don't do business with them, then you will never see them again. But in TW, those sales man are very competitive, they keep visiting you until you buy something from them.

7. Code/Regulation of naming animal hospital: In CA, naming your own animal hospital has a strict rule, need to approved by CVBC, during this process, they will contact you and ask what's the meaning of the name, and you have to explain to them.

8. SPCA: In CA, SPCA has its authority, they can give owner a ticket, or even confiscate your pet under certain conditions. In TW, most time the SPCA can only persuasion ticket.

9. MR completeness: In CA, medical record need to be done as detail as possibile, almost like conversation transcript, every single words need to be recorded, specially what the owner said and what the Dr. said.

10. No GP open during the night time: In CA, most of hospital closed at 5-6pm, all evening appointment refer to emergency. In TW, most animal hospital openuntil 8-10pm. No counting as emergency.

Do you feel the difference as well? You can share your experience in the comment area.

台加獸醫大不同

在加拿大執業的這一段時間,醫生整理出了台加獸醫產業不同的地方,分享給那些在兩個國家都居住過的飼主們

1.急診:在加拿大,急診通常都不是真正的急診,主人很敏感,一點不正常都會馬上送來醫院;而台灣的急診都是已經要休克/瀕死的狀況,主人還會問可不可以打一針就好

2.專科醫師系統:北美有獸醫專科醫師系統,所以所有疑難雜症都會後送專科,所以一般的GP(家醫科)大多只做絕育洗牙預防醫學等問題,這造就了醫療資源極度分布不均

3.對醫囑的服從性:加拿大的飼主對醫囑服從性較高,大多會按時把藥物服完/回診,華人的飼主比較容易自動停藥or直接不出現

4.生食:加拿大超多飼主喜歡餵狗吃生食,相較於台灣至少多一半,而且認為這是比乾飼料跟罐頭更好/更正確的飲食習慣

5.院內血檢設備:加拿大絕大部分的醫院都沒有or只有一部分的血檢機器,很大的比例都外送,然後堅持外送比較準確(還有抽脖子血比較準確???);但台灣就是軍備競賽,醫院(不管大小)的設備比新比猛的,全套血檢是標配

6.業務的生態:加拿大業務來推新東西的時候,如果你不跟他買,基本上你就再也見不到這個人了(有時你買了你也見不到);但台灣業務超級競爭,會一直回訪,直到你跟他買產品,然後再回訪,再買更多的產品

7.動物醫院命名:在加拿大,動物醫院取名字有嚴格的規範,想叫什麼名字要先申請,然後CVBC(獸醫師公會)會先審核,看有沒有涉及歧視或其他不雅內容,再決定給不給你叫這名字,所以這邊醫院大多是城市名or路名

8.動物救援:這邊動物救援有很高的權力,會直接開罰單給飼主,甚至直接沒入你的狗(在某些明確的條件下);而台灣的SPCA頂多開開勸導單,權力沒這麼大

9.病歷紀錄的完整性:在加拿大,病例幾乎要打成逐字稿,包括誰說了什麼/順序等等這些都要記錄下來,而且是個legal document

10.一般動物醫院大都5-6pm就關門,晚上有事就直接轉診到急診醫院;台灣的醫院大都營業到晚上8-10pm還不收急診掛號費,非常佛

你也有感受到台加獸醫的不同嗎? 有想要分享or補充的歡迎寫在下面的comment

ANVH EP23 - Tail Amputation.

Today's case is a bit bloody and painful.

It's a cat, who's tail stucked by the door and the cat trying to get rid of it. This kind of trauma we called "degloving" trauma. (Just like we removing the glove)
All soft tissue deprives from the bone. The result shows in the photo.

How we treat it? It need to be amputated, to prevent further infection. In this case, the trauma just happened, O brought the patient to hospital immedicately, so the surgical condition is relatively good.

After 20 mins, we amputated the tail and closed the wound.

If you have seen your dog/cat bone tissue expose outside of the soft tissue, then contact your family vet ASAP.
===========================================
今天的case分享有些血腥跟疼痛感

是一隻貓,尾巴被門夾到,然後貓用力一衝,造成尾巴脫套性的傷害
(想像我們脫手套一樣) 顧名思義,所有的軟組織從骨頭上剝離下來,只剩下骨頭暴露在外面

我們怎摸治療呢? 這需要截肢,來避免進一步的感染
這個case很幸運的是一發生主人隨即把動物帶來醫院治療,所以整體手術條件很好,不用太過擔心感染的問題

經過20min的手術,我們把尾巴截除,並把傷口關閉

如果你發現你的貓/狗有骨頭組織暴露在外面,請盡早聯絡你的家庭獸醫,這是必須馬上治療的問題

ANVH EP22 - Dental fistula (齒槽漏管)

Dr!! My dog's face is swollen!!

If your dog has facial swollen on and off, the lesion right under the lower eyelid, and has bad teeth. Then your dog may have this issue.

Dental(teeth) fistula ususally happened on senior dogs and cats, facial swollen right under the lower eyelid. The caused usually related to bad teeth, the molar/premolar has rotten teeth root, the bacteria go upward through the soft tissue, sometimes even penerate it and forimg a hole. You can see the oral cavity from the face directly.

How we treat it? We will sedate the patient, clean the wound throughly, but the most important thing is extracting the rotten teeth, disinfect the lesion and close it properly.

Surgery + oral medication + put the cone on(cause the lesion is on the face, the patient will try to scratch for sure)

That's one of the biggest reason why we need to do dental cleaning annually, to prevent this condition happened.

If you suspect your dog/cat has similar issue, please contact your family vet immediately.
===========================================
醫生!! 我的狗臉腫起來啦!!!!!

如果你的狗臉腫起來,時好時壞,腫脹的地方就在眼瞼下緣,加上很久沒洗牙了,那高概率是這個問題-齒槽漏管

齒槽漏管通常發生在老狗,形成的原因是牙齒狀況很糟,太久沒洗牙的情況下大臼齒/前臼齒的齒根蛀牙/爛掉/感染,細菌會往上蔓延蛀穿臉部的軟組織,嚴重的病例甚至可以從臉外面直接看到口腔內部

那我們怎摸治療呢? 剃毛清創,但重點是把那根爛牙拔掉,然後把瘺管(口腔通到顏面的管道)關閉

手術清創+口服藥+戴頭套(這很重要,因為臉上的傷口動物一定會去抓)

這也是為什麼洗牙非常的重要,就是避免這種問題的發生

如果你懷疑你的狗/貓有類似的症狀,請立即跟你的家庭獸醫聯絡

This photo is a patient that had frequently urinating issue for long time. After ultrasound examination, found plenty of crystal occupied the bladder, and the dog is merely 2yrs old.

Discuss with owner the treatment paln, adjust the diet. Recheck in a month. And then the magic happened. All crystal are gone!!

In dog and cat, there are thre common bladder crystal/stone: Struvite, Cystine and Urate, Calcium Oxalate.

Through urine analysis, and differenciate which type of crystal/stone is, and give the correct treatment plan.

In this case, luckly is the soluble struvite, with proper diet managent, dog can avoid a bladder surgery.

這個超音波影像是治療膀胱結晶,4周前/後的對比;病患是一個反覆頻尿的狗勾,經超音波檢查後發現膀胱內有大量的細沙/結晶,而且這狗才2歲多一點

跟主人討論之後,主人很配合地願意做檢查跟配合更改飲食習慣
在貓跟狗,最常見的膀胱結晶/結石有磷酸銨鎂,胱胺酸跟草算鈣結石
經由尿檢,我們可以知道這是屬於哪一種結晶,並且制定治療計畫

這個病例很幸運的是可以經由飲食習慣來溶解的磷酸銨鎂結晶,透過飲食控制,可以避免一次膀胱手術

如果你的寵物有類似的症狀(頻尿/血尿/尿路阻塞),請盡早跟你的家庭獸醫聯絡,早期發現早期治療

ANVH EP20 - Heart disease

Today we would like to share the case of cardiovascular issue - heart disease.

The heart disease is the huge topic, very complicated and comprehensive. It's one the speciality of veterinary medicine. It get involved lots organs and factors which will affect the cardiovascular system.

This dog had a history of heart disease, and currently on medication control for period of times. One night owner found the dog sat on the floor, and looks weird gesture, seems like meditation, but with rapid breathing pattern.

When Dr saw the video, ask the owner to bring the dog to hospital right away, cause this is the typical "Neck breathing".
Which means lots of fluid accumulate in the lung or thoracic cavity, then dog the will find a position to assist breathing better. That why the dog will extend the neck, instead of lay down(will compress the chest cavity, let the breathing more difficult).

Lung edema(body fluid accumulate inside the lung) is the first compensation sign of left heart faliure. And theis symptom need to be corrected immediately.(Imagine that you are in a pool and drowning) Long term of oxygen deficiency will lead the non-reversible damage and breathing failure.

This type of patient need oxygen support + medication get involved + further diagnostics + diet control

Hope this little hairy friend can have a good quality of life.

If you have noticed your dog/cat has this symptom, contact your family vet immediately. This is not that something will go away automatically/eventually. The eariler medicine get involved, the better prognosis.
===========================================
淺談心臟病-心臟病是門博大精深,牽涉到很多臟器跟因素的一門學科,也是北美的專科之一

今天分享的病例是一隻有長期心臟病史的老狗狗,平時都有在服用心臟藥物,某天主人發現狗用一個很奇怪的姿勢坐著,像是在冥想一樣,而且呼吸急促

醫生一看到影片後馬上建議主人帶去醫院做檢查,因為這會有生命危險-這是典型的"引頸呼吸",引頸呼吸表示有大量的液體累積在肺臟/胸腔,造成沒辦法換氣,於是乎動物會找到一種儘可能幫助呼吸的姿勢,這就是引頸呼吸(因為正常趴下會壓迫到胸腔的體積,造成呼吸困難)

肺水腫(體液累積在肺部)是最常見的左心衰竭的代償現象(他會第一個出現),而這個症狀醫療必須馬上介入,因為持續下去會造成不可逆的傷害跟呼吸衰竭(想像人在游泳池,不會游泳,然後溺水)

這種case需要氧氣室 + 藥物介入治療 + 做其他的檢查確認原因是什麼 + 飲食控制(低鈉飲食)

希望這位老同學能夠在餘生有良好的生活品質

如果你發現你的貓/狗有類似引頸呼吸的症狀,請馬上連絡你的家庭獸醫,這種狀況不會自己消失or好轉,是醫療要立刻介入的,越早接受診斷治療,預後越好

ANVH EP19 - Ingrown nails

Dr.!! my cat is limping!!

Ingrown nail means the nail overgrowth, then stab back into the digit.Nails of dog and cat are curved. If they are not trimmed regularly, will lean to this situation.) Every steps the patient move, will press the paw pad, cause painful reaction.

How we treat it? It depends on how severe/deep if the ingrown nail. We will traim the nail, remove the debris from the paw. May or may not suture the wound, if so, the patient need to be sedated.

This case is cat with 1st digit(thumb) nail ingrown. Glad the little patient is a very calm and cooperative., So we don't have to sedate the animal.

With triming the nail + cleaning the wound + oral meds + put the cone on, the nail recovers very well. One week later, you can see the new nail has been grown, the lesion on the paw need couple weeks to recover. But it will be fine.

Please trim your dog/cat nail every 1-2 weeks, if there's ingrown nail or any other abnormality noticed, please contact your familiy vet asap.
===========================================
指甲倒插,故名思議就是指甲過度生長,然後倒插進肉墊裡
這很痛的,每走一步都會壓迫到肉墊,所以動物都會跛行

該怎摸治療呢? 跟不同的嚴重程度/深度有所不同,我們會把倒插的指甲剪掉,傷口消毒,然後是情況看需不需要手術縫合,如果要的話動物就必須鎮靜了

還好這個病例是個非常冷靜且配合度高的傻白黃,讓我們順利的完成了傷口的處理
剪指甲+傷口清創+口服藥+帶頭套(一定要帶,不然他會去舔)
恢復得還算不錯,一周後可以看到新長的指甲,肉墊上的傷口需要更多的時間癒合

請定期每1-2周幫你的貓狗修個指甲,如果有發現指甲太長/倒插/黑色不敢剪/血線太長不敢剪/動物要把你咬爆不敢剪/或其他任何異常,請趕快恩你的家庭醫生聯絡

ANVH EP18 - Squinting eyes

Dr.!! my dog's eye unable to open!!
Squinting eyes, with lots of discharge is very common on dogs and cats, could be single eye or both eyes. There are multiple causes of squinting eyes. could due to infection, inflammation, allergy, trauma, after grooming, etc.

When we see the patient with squinting eyes, we will start the visual exam, is it ymmetrical or unilateral? How the appearance looks like? Is the dog still eating/drinking well? Still playful? Is it affect the vision? Any possibilities of trauma?(play with another dog, or came back from boarding) Groom the dog recently? Any abnormality noticed?

Usually, we can find something based on owner's description. Then we start the physical exam. We will open the eyelid to check conjunctiva to see is it redness or swollen? The completeness of the eyeball(cornea) structure? Any suspect wounds or lesions around the eye?

This case is cornea ulcer, the surface of eyeball has a small pocket lesion, may due to the dog scratching. The whole eyeball just like a crystal ball with fluid in it. Cornea ulcer just like a scratch lesion on the glass ball. The pathogen will get into the eye through the lesion. So we use a test called flurorescent stain, let Dr. to differenciate how deep and wide of the trauma get involved.

The photo is before and after 2 weeks of treatment, you can tell at the begining the green dye in the middle of the eyeball; and 2 weeks later, it shows mild stain reaction. Which means the cornea is healing.

In general, cornea ulcer need several weeks, even months to recover. So owner's cooperation is very, very important.

Oral medication + multiple eyedrops + cone on = good prognosis.

Any suspect eye infection, trauma, squinting eye, please contact your family vet immediately. The sooner start the treatment, the shorter recover period.
===========================================
醫生!!!! 我的狗/貓眼睛打不開啦!!!!

瞇瞇眼,通常伴隨著很多分泌物,可能是單眼or雙眼,這是貓狗非常常見的問題;造成的原因有很多,可能是急性過敏,感染,創傷,剛洗完澡等等

當我們看這樣的病患的時候,會先從遠距離視診,觀察是對稱還是單側? 外觀看起來怎麼樣? 同時詢問主人動物精神活力好嗎? 有沒有影響視力?有任何創傷的機會嗎?(跟狗玩,剛寄宿回來),最近有沒有洗澡?(洗劑流進眼睛),或者其他異常的症狀

通常都可以從主人的描述跟視診中發現些什麼,接著我們會輕微地翻開上下眼瞼,看一下眼白的部分是否腫脹,充血? 外觀是否完整? 眼睛周遭有沒有明顯的傷口等等

今天這個病例是"角膜潰瘍",在眼球表面有個小口袋狀的傷口,可能是狗的前腳抓癢的時候抓破的.
整個眼球就像水晶球一樣的構造,角膜潰瘍就是在水晶球的表面有刮痕,而病原會隨著這個傷口進入水晶內部
獸醫會用一種叫做螢光染色的方法來檢查角膜潰瘍的範圍有多深/多廣

照片是當天門診跟2周治療後,治療前可見角膜上有明顯的傷口,螢光染色強陽性(綠色螢光集中在眼球中央);經過2周治療後仍有輕微的螢光反應,但非常微弱,表示角膜正在癒合中

一般來說,角膜潰瘍需要數周甚至數個月的時間來治療,所以主人的配合就至關重要:按時口服藥+多種眼藥水交替配合+24H頭套=好的治療結果

有任何疑似眼睛感染,創傷,瞇瞇眼等症狀,請盡速跟你的家庭醫師聯絡;症狀早期就診,有越好的治療效果

ANVH EP17 - Induce vomiting(Food poison)

We had 2 cases for inducing vomiting this month, both are dogs, they ate sponge foam and ant repellent separately.

How we handle this kind of case? Usually we will calm the owner first and ask what/when(ate what? when to eat?) For most cases, the most substance injest within 40-60 minutes, can inducing vomitiing. Because within this time frame, the substance still stay inside the stomach, so inducing vomiting can expel out most toxicants and content.

There are several ways to induce vomiting, in hospital, vets will inject medication or feed 3% hydrogen peroxide(roughly 1ml/kg).

However, not every thing can be induced, such chemical reagent(strong acid/alkine), sharp stuff, animal is unconscious, or weak body condition, etc. May have the chance to cause secondary trauma.

If you suspect that your dog/cat ate something thery shouldn't, contact your family vet ASAP.
===========================================
4月份我們有2個誤食而來催吐的病例,一個是吃海綿,另一個吃了螞蟻藥

動物醫院通常怎摸處理這種病患呢? 我們通常會先請主人冷靜,詢問吃了什麼/什麼時候吃的? 通常誤食異物在40-60分鐘內,可以進行催吐(因為這時候大部分的異物仍停留在胃裡,進行催吐可以把胃部的東西全部排空)

有好幾種催吐的方式,在醫院可以用不同的藥物來進行,或者用3%的雙氧水來催吐

但是必須注意的是不是每種誤食狀況都可以用催吐來解決,像是化學藥劑(強酸or強鹼),尖銳的物品,動物意識不清,身體虛弱的病患等等都禁止使用催吐,避免二次傷害or其他的併發症

如果你懷疑你的寵物有誤食任何東西,請馬上跟你的家庭獸醫師聯絡

ANVH EP16 - FLUTD(blockage cat)

Today's topic is the FLUTD - Feline Lower Uniary Tract Disease
Usually happened on male, neutered, fat cat. (Cause the uniary tract is much more narrower than common cat)

Initial symptom would be like: frequently urinating, but small amount each time, moaning while peeing, hematuria(blood in pee), to very severe kidney failure condition. If you have noticed the cat these behavior, please contact your vet ASAP.

How we treat it? We will start from the physical examination, palpate the bladder to feel the size, texture and the cat reaction. And US scan can tell us is it bladder inflammation(cystitis)? is there any sand/crystal/stone inside the bladder? For some severe cases, the patient need to be sedated and put the uniary catheter to drain out all urine. To make sure all the urine has been expelled out.

Complete blockage is an emergency condition!!! If the paitent unable to pee, the toxicant will reabsorb into the body, then cause uremia(post-renal kidney failure). Also, most of blockage cats have hyperpotassium(toxicant to heart). Combine these two conditions, cat life is in danger.

For patients like this issue, we need:
1. oral medication to control the infection or inflammation
2. switch to prescription diet
3. reduce the stress in the environment
4. clinical procedure on those severe cases.

Please contact your vet if you need further assistance
===========================================
今天分享的主題是FLUTD-貓的下泌尿道症候群

這問題通常好發在已絕育的肥公貓(因為尿道比正常的貓咪要小)
一開始的症狀會是頻尿且尿很少,排尿時哀鳴,後來演變成血尿,某些嚴重的病例會導致腎衰竭;如果你的貓有類似的症狀,要馬上連絡你的家庭獸醫

我們怎摸處理這類的case? 我們會從理學檢查開始,試著觸診膀胱的大小,軟硬,然後觀察貓的反應;然後超音波掃描可以有效的幫助分辨是不是有細砂/結晶/結石or膀胱發炎程度,來決定我們接下來做的治療
某些嚴重的病例需要鎮靜導尿來確保尿路的通暢

完全的尿路阻塞是致命的!! 如果動物完全沒辦法排尿,尿液中的毒素會重吸收造成尿毒症(腎後性的腎衰竭),同時尿路阻塞的病患也會有高血鉀的問題(心臟毒性),總合這兩種狀況,貓的尿路阻塞是一個需要馬上處理的急診

對於這類病患的處置:
1.口服藥物來控制感染/發炎
2.換成處方飼料
3.減少環境中生活的壓力
4.針對某些嚴重的病例,臨床醫療必須介入

有上述這些症狀請跟阿牛聯絡~~

完全的尿路阻塞是致命的!! 如果動物完全沒辦法排尿,尿液中的毒素會重吸收造成尿毒症(腎後性的腎衰竭),同時尿路阻塞的病患也會有高血鉀的問題(心臟毒性),總合這兩種狀況,貓的尿路阻塞是一個需要馬上處理的急診

對於這類病患的處置:
1.口服藥物來控制感染/發炎
2.換成處方飼料
3.減少環境中生活的壓力
4.針對某些嚴重的病例,臨床醫療必須介入

有上述這些症狀請跟阿牛聯絡~~

ANVH EP15 - Hypoglycemia

Today we gonna share a case of "Puppy/Kitten Hypoglycemia"(blood glucose level too low)

For adults(including human and pets), we usually feel dizzy or less strength when we feel hungry, so we just go eat something, then the feeling will gone, once the body get enough supply. However, for those young puppy/kitten, are totally different story.
Hypoglycemia in infant dog may cause altered mentation and behavior, seizures, syncope, muscle twitching, exercise intolerance, muscle tremors, collapse, ataxia and extremely weakness. This problem is lethal to the puppy/kitten.

How we prevent hypoglcemia?
1.For puppy/kitten, "Feed them!!" Make sure animal ingest sufficient calories and glucose. Puppy/Kitten should be fed 4-6 meals per day(total amount are the same, but differenciate into 4-6 times, you can reach your family vet to confirm the how much amount should be fed)
2.Keep the environment warm and clean
3.For emergency situation, can feed small amount of honey, smear on the gumline, but that's only for temporary, still need to send to the hospital ASAP

At this age of puppy/kitten, the body weight should be gained EVERYDAY. If pets eating/drinking well but doesn't gain any weight, definitely something wrong, contact your vet.

Hope the puppy can growth up smooth and peacefully. The owner is doing a great job to take care it.

今天要來跟大家分享的幼貓幼犬低血糖症

對成人來說,低血糖頂多感覺手頭暈沒力氣,去吃個東西補充一下能量就好了,沒什麼大不了的;但對於小幼幼來說,就是完全不同的故事了
低血糖對於小朋友是致命的,臨床上常見的症狀有意識不明,抽搐,癲癇,昏厥,低體溫,肌肉顫動,共濟失調等等;這些問題對小貓小狗,是致命的

那我們該怎麼預防低血糖症呢?
1. 餵飽他!! 小幼幼一天至少要餵4-6餐,(總量不變但是分成4-6餐餵,有些賣家說只需要一天吃2餐是錯誤的,成犬才可以只吃兩餐)確保動物有涉入足夠的熱量跟糖分,你可以跟你的家庭醫師聯絡諮詢應該餵多少量的食物
2.保持環境的溫暖跟乾淨
3.真的有緊急狀況的時候,可以暫時在口腔黏膜塗抹蜂蜜.但這只是暫時應對,還是建議需要緊急送往醫院治療

在這個年紀的小朋友(2-3個月大),體重應該是每天每天都要增加的,如果精神食慾很好,但體重過了一周完全沒變,飼養管理大概率有問題,趕快聯繫你的獸醫

最後希望這個小朋友能平安順利的長大,主人非常辛苦,但是做得非常好(半夜每3小時起來餵一次囧)

ANVH EP14 - Spay and neuter

Today's topic is about the spay and neuter. The defination of spay and neuter is that we remove the internal sexual organ(ovary and uterus in female, testicle in male), and make the pet neutralized. What's the pros and cons? The only drawback is that pet unbale to breed anymore.

So why every vet always recommend spay and neuter? The main reason is that spay and neuter can prevent lots of illness in dogs and cats. What kind illness you are talking about? For female, many gynecological disease such pyometra(pus full of uterus due to infection), ovary cyst, endometritis, mammary gland tumor, etc. For male, prostatic hyperplasia, then cause cystitis, difficulty urinating, constipation, perianal gland tumor, etc.

And these kind of disease usually happened above 6-7 years old. Then how we treat it? We still perform the spay and neuter surgery. But compare to the pets were young, the risk, surgery fee, complication rate, recovery period...are all much more higher/longer than routine spay/neuter surgery.

If you ask a vet, should I spay/neuter my dog? I would say the only reason that you don't do the surgery is because you want to breed them, otherwise, perform spay/neuter surgery is fit the best interest of your hairy partner.

Does you pet spay/neuter yet? If not, go to consult with your family vet ASAP.

"The photo is the case of perianal gland tumor, is a 21 years old male dog. We perform the neuter surgery, so the size of tumor redecue to 1/3, cause testerone is the main role of this tumor. Remove testicle, without hormone stimulation, the tumor shrinkage"
===========================================
今天來淺談絕育
貓狗絕育的定義,就是手術移除體內的性腺,母的就是移除子宮卵巢,公的就是移除睪丸
那手術與否到底有什麼好處跟壞處呢? 我想唯一的壞處就是,這動物無法在生育後代了

那為什麼每個獸醫都強調絕育的重要性?因為絕育可以避免絕大多數婦科疾病,Ex:子宮蓄膿,卵巢囊腫,乳腺癌,子宮內膜炎等等;在公狗,可以避免前列腺腫大,排尿困難,便祕,肛周腺瘤等中年男子的問題

而且這些疾病往往都發生在6-7歲齡以上的動物,真的遇到了該怎摸治療?還是絕育手術,但相較於年輕的動物,手術的風險/費用/併發症機率/恢復期等等,都會變得更高更久,你可能要花3-4的費用然後還有一定程度的風險

那我到底該不該絕育呢? 你如果問我,我的回答是唯一不絕育的理由,就是你想要讓他有後代,不然都是盡早絕育,才比較符合動物的最大福祉

你如果有動物還沒絕育或在猶豫要不要絕育,請聯絡你的家庭獸醫趕快去諮詢手術相關事項吧

"照片是一之21歲的臘腸狗,有肛周腺瘤的病史,絕育手術後腫瘤大小縮至1/3,因為該腫瘤主要是由睪固酮濃度影響,移除了睪丸,沒有了賀爾蒙刺激,腫瘤就會跟著縮小"

ANVH EP13 - prenatal check up(pregnancy exam)

What!! The dog need prenatal check up as well?

Yes, it is. The average time of puppy/kitten birth is around 58-63 days, roughly 2 months. Prenatal check up can effectively prevent the change of dystocia(difficult to birth)

So what kind exam need to be done during prenatal exam?
The answer is Ultrasound and X-ray
On each check up, Dr will use ultrasound to measure the head distance to calculate the age and then evaluate the date of birth.
X-ray will be taken after 50-52 days, to confirm how many puppy/kitten in side the belly.

Also, Dr will check monther's healthy status, let the owner understand what's the scenario may facing to. Most importantly, when is the delivery date.

Just like humanbeings, regular prenatal check up is necessory and very important. Please consult your vet if you have a pregnant pet but never been to prenatal exam.

動物也要產檢嘛!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

是的,動物也需要產檢
貓狗平均懷孕的週期是58-63天,大概兩個月左右,而產檢可以大幅度降低難產的機會

產檢都做些什麼呢?
超音波跟X光,通常到分娩前都會做2-3次的超音波追蹤,去看胎兒的頭圍大小來估算生產的日期,同時檢查胎兒的心跳/骨化程度等等是不是在正常範圍,X光則是在50-52天後拍攝,來確定小狗隻數
一個是檢查狀態一個則是檢查數量
產檢的同時醫生也會告知主人分娩時可能會遇到的徵候以及臨床表現,以便主人提早做好準備

就像人要做產檢一樣,貓狗的懷孕產檢是必須且重要的,如果你有已經懷孕的寵物但是完全沒做過產檢,請趕快連絡你的獸醫師吧

ANVH EP11 - Why dental cleaning is so important?

There's lots of owner ask the quote for dental cleaning recently. Let me explain why regular dental cleaning is so improtant, and why usually expensive than common neuter/spay surgery?
Dental cleaning on dogs/cats are different from human. We use the similar equipment for the cleaning, however, the pets won't staystill for 20-30 mins to allow us do the cleaning. So when we do the dental cleaning, they need anesthesia; when mention to anesthesia, it means we need to do blood work, intubation, monitor the patient until it wake up. We consider dental cleaning in dog/cat as a surgery, not merely a "dental cleaning"
Further more, we usually spend more time on dental cleaning than common routine surgery. Because we need to confirm each teeth is still healthy? Is it loose? Does it need extraction? If the answer is yes, then we need to suture the extraction wound or do more minor surgery in oral cavity. So the time spend on the dental surgery can be various. It could be between 20-30min to 1.5hours. That's why there's a range on the quote. Some situation may actually noticed after we sedated the patient and exam the mouth.
What if I don't do the dental cleaning? Those residues/substance/baterica/saliva will mix together and form a cover we called dental tartar on the surface of crowns. If we ignore it, it will stimulate the gum and cause inflammation, developed to periodontist. Some severe cases may even have complication such as dental fistula(a whole penerate through between teeth root and facial bone), or cause septcemia(bacteria get into blood circulation).
So how about the non-anesthesia dental cleaning? I have seen that in some grooming pet store.
Well, when we do dental cleaning in vet hospital, it means we will sedate the pet, and use the equipment to clean the surface and pocket between the gum and the teeth body. Pet won't allow you to do that if we don't sedate it. For grooming non-anesthesia dental cleaning, visually, it cleans a bit. But actually it doesn't help a lot for the teeth health.
Then how I maintain the teeth health?
I would say couple tips for the owner:
1.Brush the teeth every day
2.Do dental cleaning every 1-2 years
3.Do not feed anything the pet shouldn't eat
There's nothing can replace the regular dental cleaning in animal hospital, not the grooming nor the dental treats.
===========================================
最近很多人打電話來詢問洗牙相關事項,趁這個機會來解釋一下洗牙到底是個什摸東西跟做什麼這麼貴?
犬貓洗牙跟人的洗牙不是同一件事情,雖然都叫洗牙;我們用相似的超音波洗牙機,但貓狗絕不會不動20-30分鐘乖乖給你洗牙,所以意味著必須麻醉;一提到麻醉,表示我們會遇到血液檢查,插管,生理監控等等
所以洗牙對獸醫來說,是屬於手術的一種,跟人的定義不大一樣
而且通常獸醫的洗牙會比一般常見的手術要花的時間長,我們會確認每個牙齒的狀態,有沒有鬆動?需不需要拔掉?要不要縫?等等
很多狀況是我們真的放倒動物之後才會檢查到,才當場決定要怎摸處理,這也是為什麼麻醉的報價通常會是一個範圍,從20-30分鐘到1-2小時都有可能,牙齒狀態越糟要花越多的時間
那我不洗牙會怎摸樣? 長時間的不做清潔,那些細菌/食物殘渣/唾液等等的混合物會形成牙結石附著在牙齒表面上,輕則引法口臭,牙齦發炎,牙周病;嚴重的會造成齒槽漏管(牙根蛀穿到顏面骨頭)or全身性的敗血症(細菌進到血液循環),到時候怎摸處理? 還是手術,而且風險/費用會遠比一般洗牙要來的高
那無麻醉洗牙呢? 我看有些寵物美容在做
當獸醫做洗牙的時候,我們一定會麻醉動物,把牙體表面的牙結石清掉,同時清潔齒齦跟牙齒的交界處,確認每一顆牙齒的狀態等等,這些無麻醉洗牙都沒辦做到;後者只是"視覺上"有清潔的效果,但實際上對改善口臭/口腔健康並沒有太大的幫助
那我該怎摸保持口腔我的狗/貓健康呢?
1.每天刷牙
2.定期洗牙(每1-2年,看醫生建議評估)
3.不要亂餵不應該吃的東西

ANVH EP10 - Case share - senior dog anesthesia

Today's case share is one of my best friend's dog. It is a very special experience of anesthesia. Ballu, a "20 Years old" dashund, had perianal tumor hx for couple months. Also got very horrible teeth condition. The dog was declined by several animal hospitals in Toronto due to the age. My friend contact me and ask me can I do it? I said go get the echo report first and we will see.
The echo report shows the dog got:
Degenerative mitral valve disease (ACVIM stage B1)
Mild pulmonary hypertension
Mild aortic insufficiency
---> generally speaking is that the patient cardiovascular system has some functional degeneration, but overall is ok to take anesthesia. But, be careful the medication and protocol you selected.
Surprisingly the body condition still very well. Blood work shows mild anemia, major organ function has no significant finding.
After discuss with owner, he deicde to let the dog perform surgery.
===========================================
Even though the echo report and blood work indicate the patient can take the anesthesia, as a clinical practitioner, we know this is a tough challenge. After we give the premed, the dog looks like gone. HR drop to 30(NR range 80-120), spO2 drop to 65%(NR range>98%) BP only shows sys 80(NR range 120-150) and we just give it 30% of the total amount
After our medical managent, everything back to NR, and we finished the surgery and dental cleaning(extract 12 teeth). The dog recover successfully. I am very surprised by it's energy.
===========================================
We just open less than 2 weeks and we already done anesthesia for 3 very senior patient(all of them are above 14 years old). It is so crazy. Thanks for the team to support the surgery. Hope Ballu can go back to happy life and eat/drink whatever he likes.
今天要跟大家分享的病歷是老狗麻醉
這是我的一個好朋友的狗,20歲的老臘腸,有肛周腺瘤跟牙齒的問題
被多倫多許多動物醫院拒絕,原因是因為狗太老了,可能無法承受麻醉
我朋友於是聯繫上我,問我有沒有搞頭? 我說先去掃個心超,我們在研究看看,心超掃完後結果是瓣膜退行性的心臟病(stage B1),輕微肺高壓跟主動脈灌流不足...白話文就是老了,可以麻醉,但是要很小心麻醉藥物的選擇跟使用
評估後我跟主人說:來,哩來,巄宗來
===========================================
在麻醉初期給了麻醉前用藥後,心跳降到30(正常80-120),血氧65%(正常>98%),血壓掉到80(正常收縮壓120-150),而這僅僅是給了1/3的劑量...嚇爛我
在一陣操作過後動物所有生理徵候回到了正軌,我們也順利完成了手術跟洗牙(拔了12顆),病患在麻醉結束後也很快的復甦了過來(真的老兵不死,你是不是打過國共內戰?)
===========================================
在開幕不到2周的時間裡,我們麻了3隻超過14歲以上的動物,想起來真的是很瘋狂,謝謝我團隊的幫忙
#老兵不死
#只是爛牙
#年紀不是一種病
#我麻過最小2個月最大23歲
#但沒事年紀大還是不要麻醉啦
#你很難想像看到血氧只有65的時候
#醫生的臉會有多扭曲
#跟心中的髒話不知道講幾遍

After we give the premed, the dog looks like gone. HR drop to 30(NR range 80-120), spO2 drop to 65%(NR range>98%) BP only shows sys 80(NR range 120-150) and we just give it 30% of the total amount
After our medical managent, everything back to NR, and we finished the surgery and dental cleaning(extract 12 teeth). The dog recover successfully. I am very surprised by its energy.
===========================================
We just open less than 2 weeks and we already done anesthesia for 3 very senior patient(all of them are above 14 years old). It is so crazy. Thanks for the team to support the surgery. Hope Ballu can go back to happy life and eat/drink whatever he likes.
今天要跟大家分享的病歷是老狗麻醉
這是我的一個好朋友的狗,20歲的老臘腸,有肛周腺瘤跟牙齒的問題
被多倫多許多動物醫院拒絕,原因是因為狗太老了,可能無法承受麻醉
我朋友於是聯繫上我,問我有沒有搞頭? 我說先去掃個心超,我們在研究看看,心超掃完後結果是瓣膜退行性的心臟病(stage B1),輕微肺高壓跟主動脈灌流不足...白話文就是老了,可以麻醉,但是要很小心麻醉藥物的選擇跟使用
評估後我跟主人說:來,哩來,巄宗來
===========================================
在麻醉初期給了麻醉前用藥後,心跳降到30(正常80-120),血氧65%(正常>98%),血壓掉到80(正常收縮壓120-150),而這僅僅是給了1/3的劑量...嚇爛我
在一陣操作過後動物所有生理徵候回到了正軌,我們也順利完成了手術跟洗牙(拔了12顆),病患在麻醉結束後也很快的復甦了過來(真的老兵不死,你是不是打過國共內戰?)
 ===========================================
在開幕不到2周的時間裡,我們麻了3隻超過14歲以上的動物,想起來真的是很瘋狂,謝謝我團隊的幫忙
#老兵不死
#只是爛牙
#年紀不是一種病
#我麻過最小2個月最大23歲
#但沒事年紀大還是不要麻醉啦
#你很難想像看到血氧只有65的時候
#醫生的臉會有多扭曲
#跟心中的髒話不知道講幾遍

ANVH EP9 - Case share - dog fight

Dog fight, is that kind of case could be easy or complicated. When we received the dog fight case, the first thing is confirm what's the dog physical status from certain distance, is it conscious or non-conscious? where's the trauma location? is the bleeding stop or not? After checking the vital sign, then usually we will sedate(cause it's painful and mentally scared) the animal and start to process the lesion.

Then what we do is trim the hair. Why? because hair tangled with saliva/blood/discharge is very dirty, and also interfere our vision toward the bite wound as well.

Always looking for the second hole on around the trauma area, because the canine teeth is paired. If you found a hole, there is definitely another one.

Then we clean the wound, drain out all discharge/secretion. If there's not much subcutaneous trauma, can suture it directly; otherwise the dog may need to perform the surgery to remove the severe infection area, if the subcutaneous(SC) trauma tremendously.

In this case, a baby Great Pyrenees had dog fight. After sedation and trim the hair, found total 4 penerated wounds, 2 on the ear panel and 2 on the neck. Drainage test shows that SC trauma is not that severe, so we clean the wound and close it. Dog seems recover well, the bruise on the skin will be gradually healed. The puppy should be fine.

跟大家分享的case是狗打架~一個可以是很簡單,可以是很複雜/困難的手術;通常我們第一時間看到這種case的時候,會先遠距離的觀察一下狗的狀態,精神意識怎摸樣? 是不是還在流血? 創口位置/範圍/大小等等,確認狗的生命徵候後,通常會放倒做清創的手術(動物通常因為疼痛or心理的不安會抗拒醫療團隊的檢查,所以麻醉清創是對雙方都相對安全的方式)

所有清創手術第一件事情就是把患部的毛剃掉,因為毛髮混著血/唾液/分泌物等等這些是很髒的,同時也會阻擋視線,可能找不到其他的創口(尤其是黑色毛的狗)

再來是找尋其他的洞,只要是被咬傷的,一定會有成對的創口,因為犬齒是一對的,有時候不一定第一時間會找的到,剃毛清創會有助於幫我們辨識

最後就是灌洗傷口,簡單的case,沒有咬很深的況下,可以用大量生理食鹽水/消毒劑灌洗,然後關閉傷口;但如果皮下撕裂傷很嚴重(咬著甩),或牙齒非常髒,可能發生嚴重的肌肉創傷/皮下瘺管,這種狀況就必須做手術清創,大範圍的移除感染的地方

在這個case,清創後有4處傷口,兩處在脖子兩處耳朵(耳朵被咬穿),但整體來說是乾淨的傷口,皮下也沒有太嚴重的撕裂傷,所以灌洗後決定關閉傷口,配合口服抗生素,戴上喇叭套,變身法國貴族啦~

To sum: 遇到dog fight
1. observe animal status from distance
先觀察動物狀態
2. trim the hair around the lesion
患部剃毛
3. drain/clean the wound
清洗傷口
4. oral medictaion/apply topical medication
藥物治療

ANVH EP6 - case share - my dog

Originally, I was planing to write an open house article, to introduce our hospital more and recruit more VA. But something happened with my dog, so I decide to write something related to my son - The A Niu itself.

My dog, A Niu(means bulldog or cow in Mandarin), or Odika, is a 14~15 years old french bulldog. Had several surgery hx, such as foreign body removal(swallowed an needle when he was yong), paralysis right before I came to Canada in 2019. And then pee in blood in 2022, April, I did the surgery and took out 2X small bladder stone. UA shows is calcium oxalate.

The hemauria recurrent again at the end of 2023, my son pee more frequently than before. I did the ultrasound again, and found couple high opacity image inside the bladder. So I think it's the bladder stone again. Therefore I decide to perform the surgery to took it again.

To be frank, I was very anxious the night before the surgery, I think it's because he is my son; based on my job habit, think the worst and prepare for the best is what I always did. I keep thinking lots of what if, what if my son unable to wake? what if hypotension happened? what if I missed something on the X-ray? But all the anxious emotion disappeared when I wore the surgical gowns: this is what we do, who we are, I am doing this for over 10 years. I am good at it.

Approach through linea alba, get away excessive subcutaneous fat tissue, cut the muscle layer open, and found the target-fat bladder.
All my dog's internal organ really looks like himself. Short, round and chunky.

When I approach my finger into the bladder, what I expect is a particle/stone texrture, so when I prepare to remove it from the bladder, I found it attached to the bladder wall. When I followed the mass structure all the way down to the triangle area, the mass occupied 60-70% of the bladder. What it shows under the X-ray and ultrasound was the calcification structure of the tumor.

I was be stunned for 30 second, I have simulated mutiple scenarios before the surgery, I thought I was ready. But I never though the surprice happened in this way. After second thought, I decide to use ultrasound blade to reduce the volume of the mass inside the bladder, to try to reduce the ferquent urination. Based on my experience, most likely is TCC, and it is impossible to be incised completely.
I sent the sample to the lab and waiting for the pathology report.

After the surgery, I am seeing my dog wobbly during the recovery, and thinking: Am I helping him or not?
Interesting thing is that I don't have the similar emotion when I perform the same surgery on other patients.


今天本來想要先寫一篇醫院的開箱文順便徵才,照片都照好了,準備寫文章了,但是想說今天我跟老楊都在,順便幫CEO(喔低咖)進場大保養一下
喔低咖,14歲法鬥,年輕的時候吞過一次針,被我亞瑟王石中劍拿出來了,2019找了左岸關醫師做澎恰恰手術,出國前1個月突然癱掉,靠闕老大跟古德詹醫師的中獸醫又讓他站了起來,得以順利出國
2022年4月的時候血尿,在我之前工作的醫院幫他開了一次刀,拿出了圓圓胖胖的結石
2023年底又開始血尿,超音波掃一下發現有高密度的一粒一粒的影像,下意識的我認為又是膀胱結石,驗了血,發現只有ALP稍微高了一些,整體來說沒有太大的問題,是個老當益壯的小肥豬,於是我決定選個黃道吉日,讓他進場大保養-膀胱結石移除+後腳腫塊移除+洗牙
我知道不應該一次做這麼多事情,但考量到14要15歲法鬥,血極難抽,針極難上的情況下,能夠一次麻醉處理就處理了
花了1.5小時,3個人輪流人上針最後終於找到左手側支的情況下,順利完成前置作業,準備刷手做手術
手術前一晚我其實是很焦慮的,因為是我自己的狗,還是阿牛本牛,14要15歲法鬥,這種條件不管放到哪間醫院都是很硬的,所以我很焦慮,職業使然,一直做最壞的打算最好的準備,like:他醒不過來怎摸辦? 低血壓怎摸辦? 他會不會其實有心肺問題但我沒察覺? X光我有沒有看漏東西? 等等這些負面的情緒,但這些情緒到我穿上無菌刷手服後就煙消雲散,我做這事已經10年了,就是我最擅長的事;手術一開始就像往常,喔低咖所有內臟跟他本人一樣都短短圓圓的,皮下脂肪超級厚,到底冬天抖屁抖?
腹中線切開,雞雞擺到一邊,鈍剝皮下脂肪,結紮幾條調皮的血管,看到腹壁肌肉,切開後小小圓圓跟喔低咖本人長很像的膀胱就在正下方
把膀胱移出體外,附近鋪上無菌紗布,請助理淋滿生理食鹽水(避免軟組織長時間暴露在空氣中太過乾燥),準備切開膀胱
膀胱一切開尿液先噴濺出來,然後伸手下去探,我期望中的觸感是一顆顆分明的石頭,對,一開始有摸到,當我想要拿出來的時候,ㄟ靠...黏在膀胱壁上,一摸一大叢,一路從切創點延伸至膀胱頸/三角區,大小不一葡萄/菜花狀且裡面有些鈣化的結構...FK 我的小黑豬有膀胱癌?!?!?!
我整個傻在原地,愣了30秒,我一直覺得可能有些什麼出乎意外之外的事,但沒想到是以這種形式出現,經驗上告訴我是TCC(移形上皮細胞癌),但要做化驗後才會知道確切是什麼,想了一下,決定用超音波刀先減積,讓被占據的膀胱空間恢復,起碼可以改善頻尿(暫時性)
隨後關閉膀胱,移除腳上腫塊,清潔了牙齒,然後靜靜地等CEO醒來
手術結束後,歐低咖順利地醒來,有些酒醉狀態,站不穩跟發抖,把他放在院長辦公室,目前趴在那邊睡覺
14歲的法鬥,該來的還是要來,上帝是公平的,身材高大球技又好的人不會出現在你我生活周遭;喔低咖血檢一切正常,但膀胱有腫瘤
做完手術,看著他在睡覺的身影,還是會去想,我是幫了他?還是害了他?
奇妙的是,對飼主的狗,我幾乎不大會有這些問題

#目前等切片報告
#震驚後來轉變成平靜
#醫生只是園丁
#我們無法改變四季
#只能努力讓花開得更漂亮
#看看喔低咖這朵花開得多肥美
#感謝老楊的協助
#跟阿牛的團隊
#還有我的醫院
#這要怎摸翻成英文
#想到我頭就大

ANVH EP4 - A film about A Niu Veterinary Hospital

We have found a director to make a short film to present what Dr. Chiu would like to demonstrate to the general public. To let people know that what's the daily life of an animal hospital, not merely petting the dogs and cats. Hope this video is helpful.

Welcome to the opening event, if you are available, please come by, if not, watch the video and feel the passion of the A Niu VH team.

See you soon.

我找了個導演把我心中想呈現出來的東西拍了個短片,希望對一般大眾能夠更了解動物醫院的日常,除了嚕貓嚕狗以外,我們還必須做哪些事情

歡迎大家參與明天的開幕,如果不方便前來,就看看影片,體驗一下阿牛團隊的熱情

我們明天見

哈囉各位毛孩爸媽們~

我是阿牛的邱醫師,很榮幸的在此宣布我們可以接收新病患啦~~
2月6日至2月10日為試營運, 營業時間為中午12點到下午6點, 本周日2/11為開幕慶。
下周2/12開始正式營運, 營業時間為中午12點到晚上10點
有需要的主人請電話預約門診: 604-285-8822
毛孩的病歷請寄到醫院信箱:reception@anuvh.com
期待與你們的碰面

誠摯的邀請您,

阿牛獸醫院團隊 敬上
===========================================
終於!!!  早上收到CVBC的通知(獸醫師公會),我們可以開始執業了
跟開幕慶不一樣,開幕慶是個儀式,一個open house,讓飼主/廠商/同業知道我們在幹嘛,我們可以做到些什麼事等等,但還不能營業,要等主管機關的同意
正式收病患表示我們可以營業啦,跟我的狗喔低咖一樣,每天痴痴的等,終於等到一口地瓜,這個permission就是這個地瓜!! 我會另外再寫兩篇在加拿大從無到有開醫院跟開箱加拿大動物醫院

Anyway,有需要的朋友不要客氣,阿牛團隊正式上線

#心心念念的那張紙
#終於下來惹
#花了1年以上
#砸了超過100萬
#遇到個鳥物業
#珍奶還買到全糖
#儘管如此
#我們還是拿到了
#那張破紙lol
#要起來飛了要起飛了

ANVH EP1 - Veterinarian introduction 獸醫人物誌

We are honored to introduce one of our veterinarians - Dr. Rex Yang

Growing up as a teenager in Vancouver, Dr. Rex Yang was excited about returning to Canada in 2020 with his family. Following his dad’s passion for animals, he graduated from the National Taiwan University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2012. He then continued to pursue a Master’s Degree in small animal clinical oncology where he learned about not only the treatment options for end-stage diseases but also the importance of empathy and quality of life.

Dr. Rex Yang then ventured to Hong Kong working at a busy day practice for 3 years before he started working in Taipei serving small animal cancer patients again. Due to the expectancy of a newborn baby in 2020, Dr. Rex Yang decided to bring the whole family back to Vancouver and he is ecstatic about supporting the furry family members at the place where he gained most of his precious moments during his childhood.

Dr. Rex Yang specializes in internal medicine, common surgery, and the oncology field. Also, he is very good at making hamburgers and being a dad.

受到喜愛動物的父親影響,楊醫師在2012年畢業於國立台灣大學獸醫學系,並繼續進修研讀小動物臨床腫瘤學取得碩士學位。完成學業後,選擇到香港執業,移居香港三年期間獲取許多臨床治療經驗,並習得廣東話。而後因希望能運用腫瘤治療的專長幫助更多毛小孩及飼主,接受了台北的新工作機會回到家鄉。2020年因家中即將迎接新的小生命,楊醫師決定舉家遷移至他青少年時期所居住的溫哥華,在優美的環境下陪伴小孩成長。他期待能在此繼續照顧各位的毛毛家人!

楊醫師擅長內科,一般外科跟腫瘤領域的治療;除了獸醫之外他也非常會考漢堡跟當一個稱職的老爸!!

#楊醫師會說普通話
#楊醫師會說英文
#楊醫師係供廣東法
#楊醫師還會考漢堡
#楊醫師女鵝髮型像金太郎一樣可愛
#優質青壯年哪裡找
#就在阿牛
