19.01.2022 To all our clients and friends, In response to the changing situation regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, we will be making some changes to our ‘normal’ visit routines. The following changes are to ensure we can continue to treat all our patients, while ensuring everyone stays safe: 1) Visits will now be changing to ‘contactless’ consultations. We ask that you please phone us on arrival in the car park. A staff member will come and collect your pet from the car and bring them in... for their examination. We will then discuss the case over the phone (while the examination takes place). We will then return your pet and any medications to you and will take payments over the phone. 2) Please phone ahead for any repeat medications. We will have these waiting for you to collect on arrival. 3) All payments will be taken over the phone. 4) For any of our local clients who are in quarantine/isolation, we can organise to drop off medications/food in letterboxes, on doorsteps, etc. 5) We will also be offering the option of phone consultations for those who prefer this. There will be some cases where this will not be possible and a physical examination will need to be performed, but this can be decided on a case-by-case basis. Feel free to call us if you have any concerns. Please stay safe! Mark.

16.01.2022 Callie a cute little Toy Poodle puppy with each eye reflecting in different hues. All dogs have a reflective layer in their eyes that make them see better in the dark. Often this layer is glowing when taking photos using a flash.

12.01.2022 Remember to keep your pets as cool as possible during this coming heatwave! Fill children's sand shells with water and place them in the shade for your dog to cool them selves in. Make some large ice blocks with treats in them. Just a few of their normal biscuits work fine or bits of carrot for carrot lovers to make the ice blocks more appealing. Below a link to some tips on how to prepare and survive during bush fires. Stay safe everyone!

10.01.2022 Bored at home? Maybe you could play Noughts & Crosses with your dog! This is only the third game for Mana, a 6 year old Jack Russel! This shows how dogs can be taught new things all through their life. Hope everyone is coping ok and keeping healthy by staying home as much as possible.

02.01.2022 How safe are toys for your dog? We all know dogs love to chew on things.Below some examples of toys and chews as well as what to look for when buying one. Rope toys: There are some things to consider when you let your dog have a rope toy. The problem with these are the long thin strands of rope that, if swallowed, can saw through the intestine and then has to be removed surgically. Rope toys are generally fine and also do help to clean the dogs teeth. But you should never let... your dog chew on one unsupervised. If you see your dog pulling strands off it, remove it immediately. There are plenty of toys out there and you need to think what type of chewer your dog is when buying one. For heavy chewers the best toys are made out of rubber. The rubber should not be too soft or too hard. A toy that is too soft makes it easier for the dog to chew bits of it and if too hard may damage the teeth. Kong: Kong has made some sturdy chew toys that do last longer. But remember no toy is indestructible. These are great that keeps your dog's mind occupied with how to get to the treat.Make sure you choose the right size for your dog. Tennis balls: Tennis balls are fine under supervision. A heavy chewer will eventually be able to get pieces off and if swallowed can cause intestinal obstruction. Also chewing on a tennis ball for longer periods can lead to dental problems as they are quite abrasive. If your dog likes to chew heavily on a tennis ball it may be better just to have a game of fetch with it instead. Stuffed toys: Be cautious with cheap stuffed toys were the stuffing or the covering could end up in your dogs stomach and may need surgery to remove it. Also be cautious of stuffed toys with dangly bits, eyes and buttons. Some dogs are able to get to the squeaker and may swallow it. Repair or remove toy if damaged. Raw hides: These are a good option. But observe your dog when giving one. Is your dog swallowing bits of it or chewing slowly? If your dog is a fast chewer a piece of rawhide may get stuck in the windpipe. Dental chews: There are various dental chews, eg. Greenies and Dentastix, to name a couple, that are good options although they do not last very long if a heavy chewer and need to be given under a watchful eye.These however do aid in dental hygiene by reducing tartar formation. Bones: We do not recommend cooked bones at all as these can cause intestinal obstructions or get stuck in their teeth.Big hard bones eventually wear their teeth down or cause them to break. Bones may also cause digestive upsets. **Always regularly check the condition of your dog's toys and observe your dog while they are having edible chews** See more
