Don't forget to stay stocked up on your pet's favorite raw diet, manufactured right here in our surgery, twice a week, so it is always fresh.
Because we make it ourselves, we know exactly what goes into it and we happen to know that the sweet potato content helps with flatulence, so if you are having issues with your dog's emissions, consider changing their diet to our delicious raw food.

Please consider bringing your dogs in for a Dectomax injection. Spirocerca Lupi cases have been on the increase again and we have found that regular dewormers have not been effective this time around. Dectomax covers all worms. There is no consultation fee if you just come in for the injection and this should be done every 3 months to keep your family member fully protected.

Spirocerca Lupi is a worm that completes its life cycle in dogs and causes severe, potentially life-threatening diseases. Your fur friend can pick up this worm from eating beetles or small animals such as mice, rats, lizards or birds. These little animals can carry worm larvae which your dog ingests when eating them. The larvae are released into your dog’s digestive tract, after which they move through the intestinal walls and into your dog’s bloodstream. Once in the bloodstream, the worm larvae will migrate through out your dogs body resulting in disease.
Nodules within the esophagus are initially small and grow bigger with time. As these lumps start to grow bigger, your dog may show bouts of fever, vomiting or regurgitating food due to difficulty swallowing, poor appetite, weight loss or lethargy. Some dogs become anaemic because some nodules may bleed, which can cause a very dark or even black stool due to the presence of blood in the stool. These nodules may turn cancerous and the cancer can spread to the lungs. Sudden death can occur if an aneurism in the aorta ruptures, causing your dog to bleed out in seconds. See less
