🔥 Wildfire safety – keep your pets safe 🐾

With the increased risk of wildfires during hot and dry weather, please take extra care when out and about with your pets.

🌳 Keep dogs on leads near areas at risk of fire and avoid walking through dry grass or woodland where possible.

🚗 Never leave pets in parked cars, even for a short time.

💧 Make sure your pets have access to plenty of fresh, clean water and a cool place to rest.

🔥 If you see a wildfire, keep yourself and your pets well away from the area and follow local emergency advice.

If your pet has been exposed to smoke, flames or heat and you are concerned about them, please contact your vet for advice.

Stay safe and keep those paws protected! 🐾❤️

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 - 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 01427 612188

Sharing this again as temperatures are getting high! Please be careful 🔥🐶🐱

⚠️ Heatstroke cases in pets are all too common; share the below far and wide!

Many dogs get heatstroke when their owners take them out during high temperatures. Let's prevent heatstroke by knowing when it's safe to take your dog outside, and please contact us if you think your dog might have heatstroke!
And remember to keep your pets hydrated and are given plenty of shade.

Enjoy the sunshine, but please keep tabs on your pets 💛
