Leptospirosis

Feb 10 2022

Leptospirosis

Leptospirosis

Leptospirosis is one of the five most common, potentially fatal diseases that your dog is likely to encounter and therefore is covered by the 5-in-1 Vaccine.

Its highly contagious and can also be passed onto humans. Death usually results from Kidney failure – in both animals and humans. Dogs and cats contract the disease from body tissues, or urine of an infected animal. It is usually caught from rat urine / feces.

It’s therefore really important that you keep your pet’s food in a rat proof container and also make sure you clean water bowls thoroughly daily.

Signs of Leptospirosis in your pet include:

  • Fever or decreased appetite
  • Diarrhea
  • Increased drinking
  • Weakness or reluctance to move due to pain
  • Jaundice (yellowing of the gums, eyes or skin).

Don’t wait until it is too late. Get your dog vaccinated now.

If you suspect your dog or cat has it – bring them to us immediately before kidney failure sets in and it is too late.

To book an appointment call 0999 885 1219 / 035 528 5015 or message us on Facebook.

We have some sad news to share today - We will have to close Waggin Tails vet clinic for the foreseeable future. As many of you know, we are trying to find ways to support DAS financially so we set up a private vet clinic to try and raise funds.
