02/11/2026

💚 A little reminder... 🐾

With veterinary practices receiving a lot of negative press recently, we wanted to take a moment to remind our clients who we are and what we stand for.

At Parkside Veterinary Centre we are proudly independent – and we’re incredibly proud of the team, values and community that make our practice what it is.

We know that trust is everything when it comes to your pet’s health. We never take for granted the confidence you place in us, and we remain committed to providing compassionate, high-quality veterinary care to every patient who walks through our doors.

We love seeing your friendly faces every day and making a difference in the community. Thank you for continuing to support our team and choosing to support an independent veterinary practice. 💚🐶🐱

🎆🐾 FIREWORKS: KEEPING YOUR PETS SAFE 🐾🎆

This time of year can be a frightening time for our furry friends. Here are a few simple ways to help your pets feel safe during fireworks:

🏡 Keep them indoors – close windows and curtains to muffle loud bangs and flashes.

🎶 Create a calm environment – put on the TV or some music to help mask the noise.

🛏️ Make a safe space – provide a cosy hiding spot where your pet can retreat if they feel scared.

🐕 Walk dogs early – keep dogs on a lead and avoid going out during firework displays.

🐱 Keep cats secure – keep cats indoors if possible and make sure their microchip details are up to date.

❤️ Never force your pet to face their fears. Let them hide, offer comfort if they seek it, and give them time to settle.

💚 Does your pet suffer from severe firework anxiety? If your pet becomes extremely distressed during fireworks, please get in touch with us at Parkside Veterinary Centre. We can discuss suitable treatment options, including medication where appropriate, to help keep them calmer and more comfortable.

Wishing all our patients and their families a safe and peaceful time during firework season.

🎃👻 Halloween can be scary for our pets! 🐾

Halloween is lots of fun for us, but it can bring a few hidden dangers for our four-legged friends. 🐶🐱

🍫 Keep sweets and chocolate out of reach – chocolate and some sweets can be toxic to pets.

🎭 Be careful with costumes and decorations – swallowed items can cause choking or dangerous intestinal blockages.

✨ Keep glow sticks away from curious mouths – they can cause irritation and illness if chewed.

🚪 Take care with trick-or-treaters – frequent visitors and open doors can cause stress or give pets the opportunity to escape.

🎆 Create a safe, quiet space – fireworks and spooky noises can be frightening, so make sure your pet has somewhere calm to retreat.

🎃 Keep pumpkins and Halloween treats out of reach – these can cause stomach upsets or choking.

❤️ A little preparation can make a big difference! Keep your pets safe, comfortable and away from Halloween hazards so everyone can enjoy the spooky season.

⚠️ Worried your pet has eaten something harmful? Contact your us promptly, even if they seem fine.

Have a safe and happy Halloween from all of us at Parkside Veterinary Centre! 🐾🧡

🌱 Pepperoni’s unexpected bladder visitor! 🐶

This is Pepperoni, a very cute Dachshund who unfortunately had a rather unusual problem… a grass seed inside his bladder! 🌱😳

Grass seeds can sometimes migrate through the body, and in Pepperoni’s case, one had made its way all the way up his urethra into his bladder. This was causing him problems and, after further investigation, surgery was required.

Thankfully, Pepperoni’s grass seed was successfully removed and he is now fully recovered! 🥰

A great reminder that pesky grass seeds can cause all sorts of problems for our pets, particularly during the warmer months. They can become lodged in paws, ears, eyes, skin — and in very unusual cases, migrate further into the body. Always keep an eye out for these being lodged in your pet’s coat and remove them as soon as you see them.

🦷🐶 Retained deciduous teeth troubles!

Did you know that puppies have baby teeth, just like us? 🐾

Sometimes, these deciduous (baby) teeth don’t fall out when they should, leaving the adult teeth to grow in alongside them. This is particularly common with the canine teeth and can lead to damage to the adult canine, accelerated dental disease and discomfort.

This gorgeous pup Rufus came to see us to have a retained deciduous canine tooth removed, helping to make room for his adult teeth to develop into the correct position. 🩺✨

Early dental checks are important to make sure your puppy’s teeth are developing as they should!

🐾 Top tip: If you notice your puppy has two teeth in the same place, book a dental check with your vet.

🐶💚

📰 Newspaper Donations Needed 🐾

We’re running low on old newspapers at the practice and would be so grateful for any donations.

If you have any newspapers you’re planning to recycle, we’d love to give them a good use caring for our patients instead. Please drop them into reception during our opening hours.

Thank you so much for your support! ❤️

🐾 Is your pet carrying a little extra weight? 🐾

We know it can be hard to tell when your pet has gone from a healthy weight to being overweight — especially when those extra cuddles and treats are hard to resist! 🥰

Being overweight can increase the risk of a number of health problems and may affect your pet’s quality and length of life.

💜 The good news? Small changes can make a big difference.

At Parkside Veterinary Centre, we’re offering FREE weight management consultations with a nurse to help you:
✨ Assess your pet’s body condition
✨ Work out their ideal weight
✨ Review their diet and treats
✨ Create a realistic weight-loss plan
✨ Monitor their progress along the way

If you’re wondering whether your pet could benefit from losing a little weight, get in touch with our team to book your free consultation! 🐶🐱

This critter was found on an ear swab from a kitten with mucky ears! 🕷️👀

This is an ear mite (Otodectes cynotis), and they’re particularly common in kittens and other young animals. They can cause itchy, dirty ears and lots of dark waxy debris.

Luckily, they’re generally straightforward to treat! 🐱💙
