Itʼs grass seed season! These barbed seeds easily attach
to fur and can burrow into the skin, causing pain and
infection.
Here are some prevention tips:
Avoid areas with long grass during summer.
Trim coats, especially around feet, ears, and between
toes – particularly important for breeds like spaniels.
After walks, check your dog thoroughly and remove
any visible seeds.

Did you know? Human suncream is toxic to our pets.
Donʼt worry though, pet safe suncream is available to protect
your pets from sunburn.
We would recommend applying pet safe suncream to any
parts of your pet that has pink skin showing on sunny days if
they spend time outside - black and white or fully white cats
with are a prime example!
Unprotected continued exposure to the sun can lead to skin
cancer.

develop quickly and become life-threatening.
Here are some simple ways to help your rabbit
stay cool and comfortable during a heatwave.

We all love a day at the seaside with our four-legged friends,
but letʼs make sure weʼre keeping our beaches safe, clean
and fun for everyone. 🐶
✅
Pick up after your dog - and dispose of poo bags properly
✅
Be observant of restrictions - not all beaches allow dogs
all year round
✅
Keep your dog under control - use a lead in busy areas or
near wildlife
✅
Donʼt let your dog approach others without checking first
not every dog or person wants to say hello
✅
Watch out for heatstroke - take breaks for shade and
fresh water, and stay out of the intense midday sun
✅
Never let your dog drink seawater - small amounts can
cause vomiting or diarrhoea and large amounts can have
dangerous consequences
Most importantly - have fun and enjoy the sand and surf!

As the warmer months arrive, we are more likely to spot
Britainʼs only venomous snake - the adder. While bites in dogs
are thankfully rare, cases tend to peak between June and
August.
☀🐍

Adders are a protected species and these beautiful creatures
are an important part of our ecosystem. They are not
aggressive and only bite in self defence - including when
stepped on or surprised by a curious dog!
By staying alert and respecting their space, we can help
protect both our dogs and our native wildlife. Adders are most
commonly found in drier, open habitats like:
🌳
Woodland edges
🌱
Grassy heaths and moorland
🏖
Sandy coastal areas and rocky paths
Keeping dogs under close control or on a lead, and sticking to
clear paths, can help to avoid encounters.

Itʼs a common misconception that hot cars are the main
danger causing pets to overheat in summer. In reality,
over-exertion during walks is the leading cause of
heatstroke in dogs, making up an astonishing 74% of
cases.
This risk is greater for dogs that are:
Brachycephalic (flat faced)
Overweight
Elderly
Have underlying heart or respiratory conditions...and also young, active dogs whose excitement and
activity level can overcome their ability
