Bond Street Veterinary Clinic

Bond Street Veterinary Clinic A small animal veterinary practice dedicated to providing the highest care possible to your pets!

You can now book your appointments online:
www.vetcollection.co.uk/north-west/bond-street-veterinary-clinic/appointments Bond Street Veterinary Clinic started life in 1963 when David Hopkins started practising as a veterinary surgeon in the property opposite our present site at the intersection of Bond Street and Park Lane. James and Susan McCance bought the practice from Mr Hopkins in 1993. Our c

ustomer base grew strongly due to our belief that animal and customer care must come first. This growth enabled us to make two important changes;
Firstly, we dedicated our service entirely to companion animals which helps keep our level of service and expertise up to date. Secondly, in 2000, we were able to move across the road to our present site on Ryles Park Road and develop our present day purpose built premises with ample parking on-site. Jonathan Harper joined the practice at this time, becoming a partner in 2003. We provide a high level of clinical care in a friendly, personal manner. Although we now have four full-time and three part-time veterinary surgeons, we always make sure, where possible, you see the particular vet you prefer, or who is dealing with the case. Our nursing staff are either fully qualified members of the Royal College of Veterinary Nurses or are training to become qualified. Our reception staff are trained to help you and will always find you an appointment if necessary even when the lists are full. Our out of hours service is provided by VetsNow a leading emergency and critical care specialist. Indeed we now have visiting consultants coming in to the practice so many referrals can be done in-house. We enjoy meeting pets and people and hope this will make your visit a pleasure!

🌾 IT'S GRASS SEED SEASON 🌾
These barbed seeds easily attach to fur and can burrow into the skin, causing pain and infection and can effect dogs, cats and small furries. Naughty little seeds they are!

Watch for These Signs:
🐢 Ears: Head shaking, scratching, and discomfort may indicate a seed lodged in the ear. These don’t work their way out and may need removal under sedation or anaesthetic.
🐱 Eyes: Redness, weeping, pawing, or squinting can signal a seed under the eyelid. Prompt vet attention is needed to prevent damage.
🐰 Feet: Lameness, licking, swelling, or oozing between toes could mean a seed has pierced the skin. These can travel up the leg and may cause infections.

Prevention Tips:
🌱Avoid areas with long grass during summer.
🌱 Trim coats, especially around feet, ears, and between toes – particularly important for breeds like spaniels.
🌱After walks, check your dog thoroughly and remove any visible seeds.

If in any doubt, just give us a call on 01625 425637 and we'll be happy to help! πŸ“±

🌻SUN SAFETY🌻

Did you know? Human suncream is toxic to our pets! ❌ Don’t worry though, pet safe suncream is available to protect your pets from sunburn, keeping their lovely ears and exposed areas healthy and happy 😸

We would recommend applying pet safe suncream to any parts of your pet that has pink or pigmented skin showing on sunny days if they spend time outside. 🐾 White pets with pink ears are a especially vulnerable example! However, all pets will benefit from taking this precaution 🌞

Unprotected continued exposure to the sun can lead to skin cancer, in just the same way it would with us.πŸ₯Ό Be sure to monitor their time in the sun and keep their skin protected this summer - especially with the heatwave coming πŸ”₯

You’d be forgiven for thinking it’s the cheetah, but asking your dog what they have in their mouth is guaranteed to produce warp speed. πŸ•πŸš€

Sometimes it’s a toy or one of your best socks... sometimes it’s something you’d really rather not know about (we have truly seen it all in clinic) 🀒

🌑 HEATWAVE ALERT: SIGNS OF HEATSTROKE IN PETS ♨

The heatwaves of the English summer are well and truly upon us! If you are a pet owner, it's essential you know the signs of heatstroke in your dog, cat or small furry when conditions start to get fiery! πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

We've listed some of the signs below of heat exhaustion and/or heatstroke in pets, but if you ever suspect something is wrong - please do call us at the practice and we can advise immediately πŸ’•

DOGS:
1. Excessive Panting and Drooling πŸ’§
While dogs pant to cool down, excessive or laboured panting, along with excessive drooling, can indicate they're struggling to regulate their temperature.
2. Bright Red Gums and Tongue πŸ”΄
Healthy gums should be pink. Bright red or even bluish gums can be a sign of heat stress.
3. Lethargy and Weakness πŸ˜ͺ
Overheating can cause dogs to become weak, lethargic, and unsteady on their feet.
4. Increased Heart Rate πŸ’“
Feel your dog's chest. If their heartbeat is rapid and irregular, it could be a sign of overheating.
5. Vomiting and Diarrhoea 😷
Heatstroke can upset a dog's stomach, leading to vomiting and diarrhoea.
6. Disorientation and Confusion πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
An overheated dog may appear confused, disoriented, or have difficulty maintaining balance.
7. Increased Thirst 🚰
Dogs may drink excessively to try and rehydrate, but this can also be a sign of overheating.
8. Elevated Body Temperature ♨
If your dog feels noticeably warm, it's a sign to cool them down.

CATS:
1. Panting πŸ˜“
An uncommon behaviour that cats display when trying cool down.
2. Drooling πŸ’§
Excessive drooling can also be a sign of overheating.
3. Restlessness 😿
Cats may become restless, pace, or have trouble finding a comfortable spot.
4. Lethargy πŸ˜ͺ
They may become sluggish, weak, or unusually tired.
5. Increased Water Intake πŸ₯€
Cats may drink more water to try and stay hydrated.
6. Excessive grooming πŸ’‡β€β™€οΈ
Cats may groom themselves more frequently in an attempt to cool down.
7. Very red or pale gums πŸ”΄β—½
Check your cat's gums; they should be pink. Very red or pale gums can indicate a problem.
8. Trouble breathing πŸ’¨
This can include rapid, shallow breaths or difficulty catching their breath.
9. Vomiting or diarrhoea 🀒
These can be accompanied by blood in some cases.
10. Loss of coordination ❔❓
May stumble or have difficulty walking.

SMALL FURRIES (e.g. Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Rodents etc..)
1. Rapid, shallow breathing or panting 🌬
This is a key indicator, as small furries don't pant like dogs, but they may open their mouths and breathe heavily.
2. Drooling or wet fur around the nose and mouth πŸ’§
They may drool excessively in an attempt to cool down.
3. Lethargy & Weakness πŸ˜“
They may become less active and move slowly or appear weak.
4. Hot or Red Ears πŸ‘‚
Rabbits and guinea pigs use their ears to help regulate body temperature, so overheated ears can be a sign of distress.
5. Overly Wet Nose πŸ‘ƒ
If your pet's nose is wet from saliva or drool, it could be a sign of overheating.
