Bad breath isn't normal.

Many owners assume "dog breath" or "cat breath" is just part of pet ownership, but unpleasant breath is often one of the earliest signs of dental disease.

By the age of three, most dogs and cats already show signs of dental disease to some degree.

The sooner we spot problems, the sooner we can:

✔️ Relieve discomfort
✔️ Prevent disease progression
✔️ Protect teeth and gums
✔️ Support overall health

Our team offers FREE dental checks to help assess your pet's oral health and advise on the best next steps.

Give your pet something to smile about - book their free dental check today! 🐶🐱❤️

The best time to check a lump? As soon as you find it.

Many lumps and bumps are harmless, especially as pets get older. However, some can be more serious, and early diagnosis can make a huge difference.

Get into the habit of regularly feeling your pet all over during grooming or cuddles. You know your pet best, so you're often the first person to notice when something changes.

If something doesn't feel right, book an appointment and let us take a closer look.

Because when it comes to lumps, guessing isn't enough.

CT Scan FAQs 💬

One of the questions we hear most often is:

"Will my pet need an anaesthetic?"

Because pets need to remain completely still during the scan, most will require either sedation or a general anaesthetic. Our experienced veterinary team will discuss the safest option for your individual pet.

Another common question?

"How much does it cost?"

At The Market Town Vet, our CT scans are available for a straightforward fixed price of £950, with no hidden charges. Advanced diagnostics don't need to come with unexpected surprises.

If you have questions about CT scans or would like to discuss your pet's case, our team is always happy to help - simply give us a call!

Is this your dog? 🐶

We have had this lovely Labrador handed in to our Oswestry team this morning, who was found on Albert Road. Unfortunately not microchipped.

Please give us a call directly if it’s your dog ❤️

Fetch? Yes! 🎾

Mystery green pond? Absolutely not.

Dogs have many talents... identifying toxic algae isn't usually one of them!

Blue-green algae can be deadly, so if the water looks murky, green, or has a scummy layer on top, keep your pup well away.

Our advice?
🐶 Stick to clean, fresh water.
🐶 Look out for warning signs at local beauty spots.

If you're worried your pet has been exposed, don't wait - call our team/your vet straight away.

Hot weather can be particularly dangerous for some dogs… ☀️

While all pets can struggle in the heat, breeds with short or flat faces (known as brachycephalic breeds) often find it much harder to stay cool.

Breeds such as Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Pugs, Boston Terriers and Shih Tzus can be affected by Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS), a condition that can make breathing more difficult. As temperatures rise, these pets may be at greater risk of heat stress and heatstroke.

Signs your pet may be struggling include:

🐾 Noisy breathing
🐾 Excessive panting
🐾 Difficulty exercising
🐾 Gagging or retching
🐾 Blue or pale gums
🐾 Collapse in severe cases

The good news? We offer FREE BOAS checks to help identify whether your pet could be affected and discuss ways to improve their quality of life.

If you're concerned about your flat-faced dog, speak to our team today.

Contact us to book your free BOAS assessment 📞
