🎃🐾 Halloween Hazards for Pets 🐾🎃

Halloween is great fun, but it can be a spooky time for our pets too!

🍫 Chocolate and sweets
Chocolate is toxic to dogs and cats, and some sugar-free sweets can contain ingredients that are dangerous for dogs.

🎃 Pumpkins and decorations
Candles, decorations, batteries, wires and glow sticks can all pose risks if chewed or knocked over.

👻 Costumes
While they can look adorable, some pets find costumes stressful and they may restrict movement, breathing or vision.

🚪 Escapes
With trick-or-treaters calling and doors opening frequently, even normally calm pets can become startled and slip out. Make sure microchip details are up to date.

🎭 Stress and anxiety
Unfamiliar sights, sounds and visitors can be overwhelming. Providing a quiet, safe space away from the front door can help your pet feel secure.

We hope all our patients have a safe and happy Halloween! 🎃🧡🐾

📸 We'd love to see your Halloween pet photos too. Share them in the comments below! 👇🐶🐱🐰

HealthCheck360 for Mature Pets takes a closer look at their health, with an experienced veterinary nurse assessing areas including mobility, lifestyle, and physical health.

🐾🏗️ Exciting Progress Update! 🏗️🐾

Our new building is coming on in leaps and bounds, and today we had our brand-new dental X-ray machine installed!

While everything is still looking a little messy as work continues behind the scenes, we're getting closer every day to creating a modern, purpose-built space for our patients and their families.

So why dental X-rays? 🦷

Much of a tooth lies beneath the gum line, meaning problems such as infection, root damage, tooth resorption and hidden fractures can't be seen during a routine examination. Dental X-rays allow us to assess the entire tooth and surrounding bone, helping us diagnose painful conditions earlier and provide more effective treatment.

This new equipment will enhance the level of dental care we can offer, ensuring our patients receive the best possible diagnosis, treatment and long-term oral health support.

We're hoping to be able to welcome you into our new premises from 7th December, but this is still to be confirmed, and we can't wait to show you everything that's been happening behind the scenes!
