It’s so tempting to want to treat your dogs at Christmas (we all do it!) but be aware of what your dog can and can’t eat!

I am now officially trained in Dog First Aid and Emergency Canine Care!

I can now (hopefully not needed) perform CPR and other life saving activities on dogs when they’re under my care and out in public!

So when you drop your doggies off for a groom just know they’re in safe hands if anything was to go wrong!

With the warmer weather ahead, owners should be mindful of the signs of heatstroke. 🌡️ Heatstroke is a serious illness that develops when a dog gets too hot and is unable to lower its temperature. Left untreated, heatstroke can lead to seizures, organ failure and even death.

Any dog can develop heatstroke, but overweight, young, elderly, flat-faced, giant-breed, and thick-coated dogs are particularly at risk, even from just sitting out in hot weather.

Some of the most common triggers for heatstroke include:
🥵 Overheating during exercise - accounts for 74% of cases
☀️ Being outside in hot weather (even just sitting still) - accounts for 12.9% of cases
🚘♨️ Being trapped in a hot car - accounts for 5.2% of cases

See advice from our vets on what you can do to help prevent or provide first aid for heatstroke: http://pdsa.me/hpSh

🧊 Please note that ice cubes are perfectly safe for dogs to use as a treat to cool down on a hot day. It is when a dog is suffering from heatstroke that the drastic change in temperature from the ice can cause shock, and therefore should be avoided. A dog’s normal body temperature is around 38.6°C (101.5°F).

It's the truth. Not ashamed to admit it...

Hi everyone!
I’m Ellie, the crazy dog lover behind the scenes! And this is my lovely Labrador Sansa, we both love all dogs that come our way and want to give them nothing but love! Deciding to do a dog grooming course at Merrist Wood College was one of the best decisions I’ve made as it allows me to work with the best animals on the planet!

Please message for any appointments or questions you may have 💙
