This is a friendly reminder that when we recommend a cone after surgery, we know it’s not fun for anyone! There are a few situations where a donut, surgical suit, sleeve or soft cone is an ok alternative but for many conditions and surgeries the large plastic “cone of shame” is what we recommend because it’s simply what works well at protecting your pet and their incision. If your vet team recommends your pet wear a cone remember to keep it on at all times, especially when you are not with them or when you are sleeping!  And while having to surgically revise an incision or treat the infection caused by a pet licking its incision is inconvenient: we in VetMed have seen horrible outcomes from pets getting to their incision.  The one that sticks with me is a dog that got to her spay incision without the cone, opened her entire abdominal incision and had to be euthanized because of the catastrophic damage to her intestines and other internal organs.  So when we tell you we really want your pet to wear the cone: it’s because we really do care 💙💙💙 #vetmed #coneofshame #dogs #veterinary #vettech #vetsurgery
Recessed/Hooded Vulva in Dogs: What You Need to Know! Some female dogs are born with a recessed vulva, meaning the vulva is tucked under excess skin. This can create a moist, warm environment, making them prone to chronic infections and irritation. Signs to Watch For: ✔️ Frequent licking of the vulva ✔️ Recurrent UTIs or vaginal infections ✔️ Redness, odor, or discharge ✔️ Scooting or discomfort (which can be mistaken for anal gland issues!) Why Does It Happen? A recessed vulva is often just an anatomical issue from birth. Some dogs outgrow it, but in others, the anatomy remains unchanged. Treatment Options Mild cases may only need good hygiene and occasional medicated wipes. But if infections are frequent, a simple surgical correction (episioplasty aka vulvoplasty) can help reduce issues long-term. If your pup has any of these signs, check with your vet—it might not be just an anal gland problem! 🐶💙 #vetmed #hoodedvulva #recessedvulva #vetlife #vetsurgery #veterinarian
