@@BlackBackLioness yes I agree. It's not about how your pet looks, having pet is a serious responsibility. Most dog owners in particular forget that in worrying about the aesthetics.

YOU MAKE MY WORLD A BETTER PLACE , I CAN DEPEND ON YOU. This song fits best with all the vets featured in this series. Thank you all for ur relentless services 🙏
Paralysis ticks, especially the ones I've encountered, are often unphased by regular tick prevention medication. My childhood dogs were always up to date with their tick prevention and both dealt with paralysis ticks; one of them got a paralysis tick three times within four years. Luckily they were at least a year apart each time so we could use the antidote. We put a stop to it but keeping them out of bushy/weedy areas during summer.
I was just wondering why, after the first tick, the owners wouldn't have started tick preventative. If it's not too effective, it's very possible that they had. I'm glad this pup is better, and that yours were able to get care in time too.
I was going to ask if regular tick prevention does or does not work in these cases. I mean, any tick prevention is never 100% but these nasty buggers seem to break through notoriously.
AlienWithABox. I really hate paralysis ticks. I have had one dog die after a week in the vets surgery. And I’ve had another two dogs that luckily were saved. The last one had the tick inside her mouth. I have all my dogs on Nexgard. What are your thoughts on that preventative? 🙏🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕
What an absolutely frightening experience for everyone, especially Danny. My dog has short hair and I'm in the States. Checking for ticks on her isn't very difficult. I wish there were a way for Danny's sweet owners to easily check for ticks in all that fur. Even the vet tech had to shave him close to the skin, but I guess that was an emergency measure.
@@prcervi Totally worth the time, though, to keep your dog from having to go through that. Some dogs don't survive that paralysis tick. I can't imagine how awful that must be for everyone involved.
Poor little chap, not only can he not breathe but he's terrified and who could blame him. Lady, anyone can see that he's a retriever shorn or not. Jesus, dog owners take the biscuit. But honestly I have learnt such a lot from your show. Thank you for the valuable info!
I wish I can take my dogs to the vet if this ever happens but here in the US they are really expensive and my family is poor. That is why I like watching shows like these because I can learn from them as I am going to college to become a vet soon! I wish the best of luck for Australia and hope that one day I will come and visit the beautiful country and help wherever I can ^^
I know that, but I hope to get my income up soon probably next year because of my Social Security had disappeared due to me being older. We are trying to get it back and when we get the change we will take our animals to the vet.
@Esau Davis By that definition atleast 7.5 billion people cant have pets. You are being out of line with reality. Thing is in nature these animals would just have died, its not nice but thats reality for you. So where is the difference if they would die while in human possession? Its a luxury to be able to save them, not a necessity. And as an addon, healthcare for *humans* in the US is a luxury, you cant expect people to apply higher standards of living for their pets compared to the general population. And thats a first world country, most countries have it far worse than that.
@Esau Davis Totally agree ! For people saying that its NOT A NECESSITY TO BE ABLE TO SAVE THEIR PETS ARE DEFINITELY NOT PET LOVERS & HAVE NO RIGHT TO KEEP ONE.
I have a problem with that. Most ppl in the US who are poor still have cars smart phones computers and internet. And most vets will make payment arrangements. Give up cigarets, junk food, cable, whatever, but don’t deny your pet health care.
How sweet! After just watching a bunny die I thought for sure I was watching this sweet puppy dying. Thank GAWD he recovered. No more Bondi Vet this evening.
Paralysis ticks are barely phased by tick prevention medication. As of right now the only surefire prevention is keeping an eye on your dog's fur and staying away from tall grass.
The tick necklaces we have for ticks is not to helpful. My old dog I had was full what ever i used against tick. We don't have this one but borrelia, tbe and think one more thing thats new last few years ontop of tge other 2. Check her daily and try keep away from areas with ticks.

Sadly, he will have to be shaved down for the rest of his life Shaving a double coat dog once, destores it forever Every time it grows back, it just becomes one big mat You can keep it long, but it takes hours on hour of work to brush it all out, and some groomers don't think it's worth it
A quick question,I have 2 dogs here in Cyprus and use VIRBAC EFFIPRO spray to kill ticks and fleas. Is a tick able to bite and release toxins before the effipro kills it?
What about tick prevention? I give my dog a flea and tick med monthly. I’m in the US so I’m not sure what’s available/recommended there. Do they have it available there?
For regular ticks those preventatives work but with these ticks they don't do any good. Maybe one day they'll find something that works to keep them away but for now you just have to avoid tall grasses and woody areas
Stupid question here, but in Australia aren't there collars and other things that fend off these critters? We have them in the US, but I think it's just because we're gullible. 🤔
They're in a coastal ares with a lot of trees. Because Australia is pretty good about maintaining our natural ecosystems, we end up with a lot of bugs. Majority are harmless, paralysis ticks not so much. The owners simply need to check Danny's fur regularly and keep him out of bushes and tall weedy grass.
@@AlienWithABox Thank you for explaning that to me! I live in the Pacific Northwest USA. We get spider's! Hobo, brown recluse, black widows and now murder wasps. A year ago I was bitten by a spider. The fangs were more than a quarter inch apart. It was nasty and painful! We have ticks too. But never heard of the paralysis tick. Though we probably have those too. Thanks again!
Are they not giving him anti tick medication? My puppy gets meds for heartworm, fleas, and ticks. I'm glad she's safe, because I would never want this to happen to her.
@@peachjubilee yeah the poor little mite. Had to laugh though when the husband said that he was going to clip his coat all the time and his wife said that she was going to hang a sign around his neck to say what breed he is. God love him!
Sadly my dog is allergic to tick meds plus with my dog having epilepsy the risk for tick meds is too great... So got to check him over after being outside as their only at risk for Lyme disease if ticks been on for more then 24 hours... Plus avoiding shaded, long grass or under trees in summer. My dog has a mild allergy to heartworm meds but it's so minor that pros outway risks and just have to give him is allergy meds for few days after treatment
Clearly, the owners are not being responsible and giving their pets preventative tick/flea/heart worm prevention medication. Shame on the owners. If you live in such a dangerous area, PROTECT YOUR PETS! Poor dog…
Certain suburbs in Sydney are very well known for ticks, alot fo tick medications don't work. Similar to nits, tics very quickly able to adapt to medication.
That gag sound makes me shiver
Keeping his fur short is a good idea, better than taking a chance.

Are they not giving him anti tick medication? My puppy gets meds for heartworm, fleas, and ticks. I'm glad she's safe, because I would never want this to happen to her.
The anti tick don't effect this sort of tick
@@alexlover76 ohhh that sucks, I had no idea. Poor puppers had this twice, and fought it. This must be so stressful though.
@@peachjubilee yeah the poor little mite. Had to laugh though when the husband said that he was going to clip his coat all the time and his wife said that she was going to hang a sign around his neck to say what breed he is. God love him!
Sadly my dog is allergic to tick meds plus with my dog having epilepsy the risk for tick meds is too great... So got to check him over after being outside as their only at risk for Lyme disease if ticks been on for more then 24 hours... Plus avoiding shaded, long grass or under trees in summer. My dog has a mild allergy to heartworm meds but it's so minor that pros outway risks and just have to give him is allergy meds for few days after treatment
Why don't they have Danny on flee and tick medicine. That kind of ticked my clear off!
Sorry , me off.
Doesn’t work
Clearly, the owners are not being responsible and giving their pets preventative tick/flea/heart worm prevention medication. Shame on the owners. If you live in such a dangerous area, PROTECT YOUR PETS! Poor dog…
Certain suburbs in Sydney are very well known for ticks, alot fo tick medications don't work. Similar to nits, tics very quickly able to adapt to medication.
Preventative ticks meds don't work on paralysis ticks
not you shaming the owners, even tho you have NO idea that paralysis ticks are unphased by tick prevention
Dr. Lisa did you have your baby?
When they were carrying him up the stairs you should never Cary your dog like that
Do the anti-tick medications kill the tick before it affects the dog or doesn’t it matter as it only takes a little bite❓❓❓
Paralysis ticks don’t really get affected to tick medications so it’s hard to stop them
