24.01.2022 Like humans, guinea pigs cannot produce their own vitamin C. Instead of a glass of OJ, they'll need plenty of leafy greens and a good quality pelleted diet. #WarmingWednesdays

24.01.2022 And just like that, our paw-ticipants have finished their first week of their pet health and nutrition challenge! We checked in to see why they applied to be a part of the Greencross Vets and #PetbarnSeeTheChange challenge - and we’re loving how much these pets and their Pet Parents mean to each other After their first consultation with their local Greencross Vets, they’re all set for their 12-week journey.

23.01.2022 Being a mother is one of life’s greatest achievements, and we passionately believe that being a vet is the next greatest! In honour of Mother’s Day tomorrow, some of the best new mums and vets tell us what it’s like to navigate the two. Dr. Jessica (Regional Clinical Director and Hugo's Mum) - ... "I think being a vet has helped prepare me for motherhood - late nights, no lunch breaks, being pooped on, and being constantly stressed about what they just put in their mouth! I’m so lucky to have been able to experience both." Dr. Ashlinn (Vet Director & Amelia's Mum) - "I love it! [motherhood] It’s better than I had imagined. Everyday there is a new surprise, a new development, an exciting milestone or a new challenge. Dr. Patricia (Emergency & Critical Care Specialist Animal Referral Hospital & Scarlett's Mum plus pregnant with twins.) "I would have to say being a vet is harder. [than being a mum] I may, however, feel differently when I have three teenage daughters!

We all know dogs have an incredible sense of smell; but it gets even more amazing. Our WebVets have shared with us that dogs can smell disease. The diseased or cancerous cells secrete different waste products to healthy cells, and the dogs’ nose can detect these tiny differences in smell. Amazing!
