****Update - The Environment agency have tested the water and deemed it safe 😊****

🚫 We've had unconfirmed reports of blue-green algae in our local area, specifically Rodbridge and the meadows. Ensure you're aware of what it looks like and keep your dog out of the water if there's any suspicion 🚫

Blue-green algae can be highly poisonous to dogs. Read our advice and keep your dog safe from toxic blue-green algae.

Does your dog embarrass you by mounting.....

Your legs.
Their friends.
Even your best cushion! 🫣

Where do you even start with this?

Well...it all depends why and when this behaviour is shown.
Some dogs do this when they just don't know what else to do!
Others may be looking for attention....either from us or a dog they want to interact with.

It might look "embarrassing" but it is natural and a way for dogs to release some energy, regulate their stress or they can even do this because they are so frustrated.
Some just don't know what on earth to do in a social situation and suddenly show this behaviour.

Look a bit deeper as to why this could be happening.
That is always key ...so an appropriate solution can be found.

It is natural.
It's normal.

It just may not always be appropriate.

But, there's no need to be embarrassed.

If you need help with your pet's behaviour contact the surgery to speak to one of our nurses who can recommend behaviour remedies along with local trainers.

EDIT We are pleased to say we have found a home for this sweet boy.

Our lovely boy is now ready to find his forever home. Please contact us if you feel you can offer him the love and care he needs. An experienced ferret owner would be preferable however we consider all potential homes. He is a male neutered ferret unfortunately we are not sure of his age but he is very friendly.
