🐾 Pet Obesity Awareness Day 🐾

Did you know that carrying extra weight can have a big impact on your pet’s health and quality of life?

Being overweight can increase the risk of conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, heart and breathing problems, and can reduce mobility and overall wellbeing. 💚

Sometimes it can be difficult to tell whether your pet is carrying a little extra weight — especially when we see them every day!

That’s why regular weight checks and body condition assessments are so important. Our veterinary team can help you understand your pet’s ideal weight and create a realistic, healthy weight-management plan if needed. 🐶🐱

💡 A healthy weight means more happy, active years together.

If you’re unsure whether your pet is at a healthy weight, speak to a member of our team — we’re always happy to help, without judgement.

🌍 🐾 World Animal Day 🐾 🌍

Today we celebrate every animal who shares our world — from the beloved pets who fill our homes with joy, to the incredible wildlife who keep our ecosystems thriving.

Animals enrich our lives in countless ways, and they rely on us to protect them. World Animal Day is a reminder to show kindness, raise awareness, and take action to support the wellbeing of all species.

💚 Our pets — the companions who bring comfort, laughter and unconditional love.

🌿 Wildlife — the foxes, hedgehogs, birds, insects and countless others who play vital roles in nature and need safe habitats to survive.

🌎 Endangered species — animals across the globe facing threats from habitat loss, climate change and human activity.

Together, we can help protect every creature who makes our world a richer, more beautiful place. Let’s be the voice for those who can’t speak for themselves. 🐶🐹🦊🐼🦁🐢🐋

Happy World Animal Day 🤍

🐾🖤 Happy National Black Dog Day! 🖤🐾

Today we’re celebrating all the beautiful black dogs who bring so much love, loyalty and joy into our lives. 🐶

Black dogs can sometimes be overlooked in rescue centres, but their gorgeous shiny coats, big personalities and loving hearts make them just as deserving of a forever home. ❤️

Whether your black dog is a playful pup, a gentle old soul, or somewhere in between, today is the perfect excuse for some extra cuddles and treats! 🦴🥰

From all of us at the practice, we’re sending lots of love to our wonderful black-coated patients. 🖤🐾

🐰💚 Happy International Rabbit Day! 💚🐰
Today we’re celebrating our wonderful rabbit patients and raising awareness of what these gentle, intelligent and social animals need to live happy, healthy lives.

🌿 Rabbits need plenty of space to hop, run and explore

🥬 A diet based mainly on good-quality hay and fresh greens

🐇 A compatible rabbit companion — they’re social animals!

🦷 Regular health checks, as dental problems can be common

💉 Preventative healthcare, including vaccinations and parasite protection

❤️ Plenty of enrichment, interaction and opportunities to behave naturally

Rabbits are experts at hiding signs of illness, so knowing what’s normal for your bunny is really important. Changes in appetite, toileting, behaviour or activity should always be taken seriously.

Let’s give our long-eared friends the care they deserve — today and every day! 🐰💚

👂Deaf Pet Awareness Week 👂🐾

This week we’re celebrating the amazing pets who hear the world differently — and raising awareness of how to keep them safe, confident and happy 🥰

👂 Congenital deafness:
• Linked to genetics and coat colour
• White cats with blue eyes are at higher risk
• In dogs, the piebald and merle genes are common causes
• Breeds like Dalmatians, Aussies and English Setters are more affected

👂 Acquired deafness:
• Can develop from chronic ear infections, age‑related changes or certain medications
• Regular ear checks help prevent avoidable hearing loss

🪧 Signs of hearing loss:
• Not responding to familiar sounds
• Sleeping more deeply
• Being easily startled
• Changes in vocalisation

💙 How to support a deaf pet:
• Use hand signals and visual cues
• Approach from the front
• Keep routines predictable
• Keep them safe on a secure lead outdoors
• Maintain good ear health

Hearing can be assessed during a routine consultation, but the most accurate test is a BAER hearing test. Early checks help us spot treatable causes like infection, inflammation or wax build‑up, and make sure your pet gets the right support as soon as possible. 🏥

Deaf pets are just as loving, capable and trainable — they simply communicate differently. With patience and understanding, they thrive💙🐶🐱

If you’re worried about your pet’s hearing, our team is here for you — please give us a call and we’ll be happy to book them in 📞

🐾🐶 Happy National Dog Week 🐶🐾

At Bobbing Hill Veterinary Surgery, we think every day is a celebration of our wonderful canine companions — but this week gives us the perfect excuse to shine a light on the incredible dogs who share our homes, our hearts and our everyday lives ❤️🐕

Dogs are special for so many reasons — their loyalty, their ability to comfort us on tough days, their goofy personalities and the unconditional love they give without asking for anything in return. They’re family, and they make life brighter in a way only a dog can 🐾

We’d love to see the real stars of the week… your amazing dogs! Pop a photo in the comments and tell us something that makes them special. Please give them a few extra treats and cuddles from us 🐶✨

🦜💚 Happy National Pet Bird Day! 💚🦜

Today we’re celebrating our feathered friends and all the joy, personality and companionship they bring to our lives! 🐦✨

From cheeky budgies to clever parrots, pet birds are wonderful companions — and just like cats and dogs, they need regular veterinary care to help them stay happy and healthy.

On National Pet Bird Day, why not give your feathered friend a little extra attention? 💕 Check their diet, encourage some safe enrichment and playtime, and make sure their health checks are up to date.

🩺 Remember: birds are experts at hiding signs of illness, so regular check-ups with an avian-friendly vet can help spot problems early.

It is with great sadness and extremely heavy hearts for us to share that our beloved practice cat, Bob, passed away yesterday following what we believe was a road traffic accident. 💔

Many of you knew Bob well. He first came to us as a stray in a very poorly condition, and our team worked hard to get him back on his paws. Later in life he became unwell again, and once more he fought with the same gentle strength that made him so special. Through everything, Bob remained the most affectionate, gentle soul — loved by staff and clients alike. 🐾

Bob wasn’t “just” a practice cat, he was part of our family. His loss has deeply affected our whole team, and the practice already feels quiet and incomplete without him here. We will miss him more than words can say. 😔💙

If you’d like to share a memory or photo of Bob, we would love to see them.

Sleep well, Bob. You will be missed beyond words and will always be a part of our Bobbing Hill family. 🐾💙

🐾 International Day of Charity 🐾

Today is a wonderful reminder that small acts of kindness can make a big difference — especially when it comes to the animals in our community. ❤️

From donating to animal charities, fostering or adopting, to simply helping a pet in need, there are so many ways we can make a positive difference to the lives of animals and the people who care for them.

As a veterinary team, we’re proud to support the health and wellbeing of pets every day. Today, we’re celebrating everyone who gives their time, kindness and support to help animals in need. 🐶🐱🐰🐹

Every act of kindness counts. 💕
