Porcupine Quill Removal

About Our Pet Porcupine Quill Removal Services

Porcupine quill removal is a common service at Bayshore Veterinary Hospital given the fact that encounters between pets and porcupines are quite common. However, this should not fool you as to the seriousness of such incidents. Depending on where the quills lacerated the body of your pet, it can lead to further complications.

For example, sensitive areas such as the eyes can lead to serious conditions if they have been lacerated by such a quill. Even in circumstances where other parts are affected by the porcupine attack, wounds left untreated can lead to infections, which in turn can lead to life-threatening conditions for your pet.

Another reason to have professional veterinarians at Bayshore Veterinary Hospital attend to such attacks is that the quills may cause internal damage which may not be immediately obvious to you. Just like external wounds, internal injuries left untreated can lead to conditions such as sepsis which can be life-threatening. Such injuries may also affect organs which can lead to organ failure down the road.
