This mixture of warm and wet weather we’ve been having makes a playground for the creepy crawlies we don’t want to see attaching themselves to our pets! Did you know, ticks are part of the arachnid family, due to their 8 legs and no antennae.🕷️
There are lots of different anti-tick products available, some of which require a veterinary prescription, whereas others do not.🩺
If you have any concerns regarding your pet’s health, please do not hesitate to chat with us. 📞023 8025 5565 or 📧 [email protected]

Gorgeous boy Chip had a great sleep with us, and woke up without his🎾🎾. He is just too cute not to share!

When it comes to male dog neutering, there are 2 options;
🍒Chemical castration - a testosterone depressant injection, lasting approximately 8months before it wears off
🍒Surgical castration - an irreversible removal of the male reproductive organs, lasting a lifetime

Both of these routes are doable by our PetDoctors ChandlersFord team, so give us a call if you’ve been considering it for your pooch📞.

No, your eyes are not fooling you, yes, that is a cat in a Police harness and lead…🚓
Topaz finds being in cat carriers extremely stressful; to the point where he open mouth breaths (which is abnormal for cats unlike dogs), salivates from nauseousness, and even soils himself. This is why Topaz’s mum brings him in to see us on a harness and lead, just like a dog🐾.
Topaz is so much more at ease during his visits, and enjoys having a walk around the practice! If we see that any dogs are about to come in, we make sure Topaz is out of sight of course, though he usually likes to explore our consult rooms or out the back in our prep room! We will always advocate to minimise stress for our patients🤎.

Whilst we’re all loving this ☀️glorious☀️ bank holiday weekend weather, we mustn’t forget the needs of our furry friends will change too🐾. Dogs are the obvious one, as they will require early morning or late evening walks to minimise the risk of heatstroke🥵. However, cats who like to venture outside can also suffer from heatstroke if they don’t seek shade and drinking water💦. Our smaller mammal friends, such as rabbits and guinea pigs, are susceptible to overheating if their enclosures are in the sun without shade or cooler positioned hideaways🐰🐹. If you have any concerns about your pets do not hesitate to call a vet, it is always better to be safe than sorry!🐾
