🌭 Hot dogs don’t relish heat… ☀️🐶

With temperatures climbing, please help keep your pets safe in the heat:

💧 Fresh water available at all times
🚗 Never leave pets in parked cars
🌳 Walk dogs early morning or later evening
🐾 Check pavements before walks
😴 Make sure pets have cool, shaded places to rest

If your pet seems lethargic, distressed or is excessively panting - contact your vet immediately.

Stay safe and keep those tails wagging 🐾

Meet Florence, the 3 month old doodle who came in recently for an umbilical hernia repair 🐶 🐾

An umbilical hernia is when there is an opening in the abdominal muscle wall which can lead to contents such as fat bulging through. This normally presents as a soft swelling on the tummy near the belly button.
This can happen in puppies due to a developmental defect where the umbilical ring does not close properly, causing a hernia.

Florence was a star patient throughout her stay with us and got lots of cuddles from the nurses ⭐️ 🩷

We also want to say a big thank you to Florence’s family for making us the yummy cake. It definitely went down well with the team 🍰😋

Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month! 💚🩺

Each May, the BVNA celebrate what it means to be a veterinary nurse. As well as educate and spread awareness on what vet nurses actually do and their importance within the profession.

This year, veterinary nurse awareness month is focusing on ‘Compassion and Empathy’.
This means reflecting on the commitment and compassion needed to train and work as a veterinary nurse 📚❤️‍🩹

Veterinary nurses take on many roles, just some of these include: anaesthetist, radiographer, first aider, laboratory technician, cleaner, surgical nurse, consultant, pharmacist, nutritionist, ward nurse, phlebotomist… The list is never ending! 👩🏼‍⚕️

We would like to say a big thank you to all of our nursing team at Whitworth Vets, to include our registered vet nurses, student vet nurses and animal care assistants. You may not always see them, but they are hard at work behind the scenes helping to give your pets the love and care they need 🐾

If you have any questions for our nursing team, whether that be more information about what vet nurses do, or some information about what it takes to become a vet nurse, please comment your questions below! 👇

Meet little Howie, the guinea pig who came in today to see our nursing assistant, Jen, for a nail clip 🐹

Howie’s mum always brings treats for him to eat while we do his nails to help minimise stress 🥬

Whenever you bring your pet to the vets, feel free to bring some of their favourite treats along with you!

Well done Howie, such a good boy ⭐️
