From muddy walks to running through crisp golden leaves, there’s so much to enjoy in autumn 🍂 But as with any change of season, there are lots of things that you should be aware of to keep your pets safe during the autumnal months 🐶🐱

Here's a few from our Vets, can you think of anything else to add to the list? 🐾

Did you know you should start getting your pets used to loud noises several months before firework season? 🎆📅

The best way to do this is by using a training technique called Fireworks Desensitisation. You should expose your pets to firework noises slowly and progressively with positive reinforcement. By using this method, you will hopefully convince them that the noises are a ‘good thing’ and not that scary 🐾

❗ It’s important to remember that every animal is different, and what works for some, may not work for others, talk to your Vet if your pet needs further help 🐶🐱

We are pleased to see summer has finally arrived in the UK, albeit a few months later than we would have liked!

Nevertheless, it is important to bare in mind the best ways to keep our four legged friends safe and happy in this glorious sunshine.

Take a look below at this handy poster from the Dogs Trust. Why not save it for a (not so!) rainy day!

Enjoy the sunshine, everyone!
