Sometimes plain speaking is what is needed. We are in a heatwave. It is very difficult for all of us, and extremely difficult for our pets. Just do all that you can to keep them cool. Skip the daily walk unless you can do it when the temperature is less than 20 C. It isn't going to last forever. A few days of missed walks is far better than treating a heatstroke patient. Call us to discuss, we're happy to help.

It is that time of year - tick season. All dogs are at risk of ticks. It’s the exposure to ticks that matters, not the dog’s breed, age or s*x. To make sure your pets are tick-free, speak to us and learn how to become familiar with tick protection and removal methods.

If you are waking up to smelly kisses from your dog or cat, let that be your wake-up call! Bad breath is caused by harmful bacteria in your pet’s mouth and can indicate that dental disease is taking hold... Other symptoms might be harder to spot depending on how cooperative your pet is – for more information click the link, and of course, our vets and nurses are available to give your pet a full dental check over at your next appointment!
