While most were enjoying the TT races on Saturday, our dedicated team at Medicor Veterinary Practice was hard at work helping Dougie, a beloved dog in distress.
We received an emergency call 
that Dougie was very ill, with breath and vomit smelling like faeces. Our on-call vet, Iga, quickly performed an ultrasound and identified two suspicious areas that looked like foreign bodies in his intestines. Lukasz was immediately called in, and he performed an enterotomy, successfully removing four foreign objects – which turned out to be seaweed
