✨ Dental Top Tips for Dogs! ✨

Because a healthy mouth means a healthy pup:

🪥 Brush regularly – ideally daily with dog-safe toothpaste.

🦴 Dental chews – a tasty way to help reduce plaque (but not a replacement for brushing!).

💧 Additives – water additives can help support oral hygiene.

🐶 Regular vet checks – early signs of dental issues are often missed at home.

🚫 Watch for warning signs – bad breath, drooling, or difficulty eating = time for a check-up!

We couldn’t be prouder of our tiny heroes! 🏅❤️

🐾 Pet First Aid Alert: Don't DIY Bandages Without a Vet's Advice! 🐾

We know you love your pets and want to help when they’re hurt — but homemade bandages can do more harm than good.

🚫 Too Tight = Trouble

Improperly applied bandages can cut off circulation, causing:

Swelling

Pain

Nerve damage

Even infection if not kept clean

❗ Never wrap wounds without veterinary guidance.

Always call your vet first before applying any bandage at home.

Your pet’s safety depends on proper care — not just good intentions.

❤️ When in doubt, reach out!

📞 A quick call to your vet could save your pet from serious complications.

🍂⚠️ Autumn Toxins Alert: Watch Out for Conkers! ⚠️🍂

As the leaves fall and your pets enjoy those crisp autumn walks, it's important to stay aware of seasonal hazards — like conkers (horse chestnuts)! 🌰🐾

🛑 Did you know?
Conkers can be toxic to dogs, causing symptoms like:

Vomiting 🤢

Diarrhoea 💩

Drooling

Abdominal pain

In serious cases: tremors or collapse 😞

🐶 Curious pups often chew or swallow them while out exploring — especially when playing with fallen leaves or sniffing around trees.

✅ Stay Safe:

Keep an eye on what your dog picks up on walks

Avoid playing fetch with conkers

If you think your pet has eaten one, call us immediately!

Let’s keep those autumn adventures safe and happy! 🍁❤️

Just look at this gorgeous pup soaking in the crisp fall air and golden fields! 😍🍂
Whether your dog loves chasing leaves, crunching through trails, or simply lounging in the autumn sun like this one — it’s the paw-fect time of year to enjoy outdoor walks together.

💡 Vet Tip: Cooler weather is easier on pups’ paws and great for longer, more comfortable walks — just don’t forget to check for grass seeds and keep up with flea & tick prevention!

Seasonal Canine Illness (SCI) has no known cause,
but this is what we know so far..

🍂 Seasonal means it is most prevalent between
August and November.

🤒 Dogs fall ill roughly 1 to 3 days after a woodland
walk.
🚨Symptoms may include vomiting, lethargy,
abdominal pain, not eating and muscle tremors.

🩺 SCI can be fatal and although the cause is
currently unknown, we focus on treating the
symptoms and most cases recover.

☎️ If you suspect SCI or have any concerns, please
ring us straight away on 0161 941 1584
