🐕 Meet Ferguson- the distinguished gentleman who popped in for his vaccinations!

This clever boy flashed those puppy eyes, sat nicely, and earned his well-deserved snack. 🦴

He is such a polite pooch and charmed everyone in the clinic!

Have you heard of seaweed supplements for dogs and cats? 🌿

Studies indicate that adding a measured quantity of powdered Ascophyllum nodosum (a type of seaweed) to your adult pet’s food can be an easy means of supporting their dental health! 🦷

It is thought that a daily dose of A. nodosum changes the composition of the pet’s saliva to help reduce plaque and calculus formation. This supplement can therefore be a great addition to other “mechanical” dental hygiene techniques, such as daily brushing or chews. 🪥

For personalised advice on safely supporting your pet’s best oral health, consult our team.

Feline tooth resorption: same issue, different name!

Formerly known as Feline Odontoclastic Resorptive Lesions (FORLs), tooth resorption is a process seen in 30–60% of cats, in which an affected tooth gradually erodes away for unknown reasons, with significant associated pain. 🦷

Unfortunately, tooth resorption can start below the gumline, so it is sometimes only visible on dental X-rays. 🔍

Regular dental checks every 6–12 months can help detect developing issues such as gum inflammation or pain, so are an essential step for keeping your feline friend’s mouth comfortable and healthy. 🐱 Phone our helpful team now to book!

If your pet has arthritis, a few simple changes at home can help them stay more comfortable this winter. ❄️🏠

Try keeping your pet at a healthy weight, providing a warm and well-padded bed, using ramps where needed, making favourite resting spots easier to reach, and keeping exercise gentle and regular.

If your pet seems stiff, sore or slower to move, get in touch with us for advice.

Gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV or bloat) is a life-threatening emergency where the stomach fills with gas and twists. ⚠️ It most commonly affects large, deep-chested breeds such as Great Danes, German Shepherds, and Labradors.

A prophylactic gastropexy, where your veterinarian permanently attaches the stomach to the body wall during surgery, can help prevent it from twisting. It can often be performed at the time of desexing. For at-risk breeds, this procedure can be life-saving. Ask us if your dog is a candidate. 🐾

Cold weather can make walks less appealing, but regular exercise remains important for your dog's health year-round. ❄️ Try shorter, more frequent walks during the warmest part of the day during winter.

Indoor activities like puzzle feeders, training sessions, and hide-and-seek games help burn energy without braving the cold. For dogs who tolerate it, a coat can make walks more tolerable. Keeping your dog active in winter prevents weight gain and boredom-related behaviour problems, and is helpful even for arthritic pets. 🐾

Speak with our team if you'd like advice on safe winter exercise for your dog.

Healthy cats generally keep their own ears clean, and routine cleaning is unnecessary for most. Some cats however, are prone to infections, wax build-up, or ear mites and may occasionally need help. 🐱

Signs include dark discharge, odour, head shaking, or scratching at the ears. Bring your cat in before attempting home cleaning as incorrect technique can push debris deeper. We can show you the right approach if cleaning is genuinely needed. 👂

A temporarily dry nose is not always concerning, but a persistently dry, crusty, or cracked nose can indicate dehydration, sunburn, allergies, or conditions like nasal hyperkeratosis or discoid lupus. ⚠️ Flat-faced breeds are particularly prone to nasal changes.

However, if your dog's nose looks significantly crusted or cracked, or seems to cause discomfort, it's worth a veterinary check to rule out an underlying cause or secondary infection. 🐾

Contact our clinic if you're concerned about your dog's nose.

Cats are meticulous self-groomers 🐱 and rarely need bathing. However, a bath may be necessary if your cat has contacted a toxic or sticky substance, has a skin condition requiring medicated washes, or can no longer groom themselves due to illness or age.

When bathing is needed, use a cat-specific shampoo and keep it brief and calm. Bathing can be very stressful for cats. 💧 If you're unsure whether your cat needs one, check with us first.
