We are very sorry to say that we have sadly had a deceased, young female, black and white cat brought in to our practice by a kind member of the public.

Unfortunately she does not have a microchip, so we have been unable to find an owner. The cat was found on Gay Street in Pulborough.

If you think she may be your cat, please contact us on either 01798 817372 or [email protected]

We are so sorry to bring bad news.

Meet Spud, the sweetest, cheeky Jack Russell pup. Spud came in for his first vaccination and health check with our vet Holly recently and was such a brave boy.

Puppies are typically vaccinated from 6 weeks old, with the second dose usually being given two to four weeks later. This can vary, so speak to your vet for specific advice.

Vaccinations protect your puppy against the following diseases:

Canine distemper - A viral disease which can cause severe, and often fatal, pneumonia (lung inflammation) and encephalitis (brain inflammation).

Canine parvovirus - A highly-contagious and often-fatal virus that causes severe illness with signs such as vomiting and bloody diarrhoea.

Leptospirosis - This infection can cause liver and kidney failure. The bacteria live in stagnant and standing water such as lakes, rivers and ponds.

Canine Adenovirus - These viruses can cause severe and fatal hepatitis (liver inflammation) as well as upper airway inflammation.

Kennel cough - Bordetella bronchiseptica is a bacteria and parainfluenza is a virus. Both are highly infectious and can contribute to a respiratory condition commonly known as kennel cough. While rarely serious, kennel cough can be unpleasant for your dog and may cause more serious problems, especially if they have a compromised immune system. Talk to your vet about whether it would be advisable for your dog to have a kennel cough vaccination. Many boarding kennels will only accept dogs who have had one.

Your puppy will then require a booster vaccination at 12 months.

Congratulations Billy!

The wonderful Billy has lost an amazing 10.5kg in the last 10 months. Billy and his owner have done such an incredible job keeping him on track with his weight loss journey and getting him in for weight checks with our veterinary nurse Saoirse.

Lovely Oliver (right) came in for his post-operative dental check following a recent dental procedure where he had some teeth extracted. 💙

Oliver’s brother Rio (left) came along for the visit too and couldn’t resist the liver paste… or a chance to get in on the photo!

These check-ups are carried out by our veterinary nurses to make sure the gums are healing well after treatment and to discuss ongoing dental care.

Preventative dental care is very important for your pet’s overall health. Just like us, pets can develop plaque and tartar on their teeth. If plaque isn’t regularly removed, it can harden into tartar and contribute to gum disease, bad breath, pain and tooth loss.

There are lots of ways you can help look after your pet’s teeth at home, including:

🐾 Regular tooth brushing – brushing your pet’s teeth with a pet-safe toothpaste is one of the best ways to reduce plaque build-up. Ideally, introduce brushing gradually from a young age so it becomes part of their routine.

🐾 Dental diets and chews – some specially designed diets and dental products can help reduce plaque and tartar. Your veterinary team can advise on suitable options for your individual pet.

🐾 Regular dental checks – your vet will check your pet’s mouth during routine examinations and can advise if further dental treatment is needed.

🐾 Watch for changes – bad breath, red or bleeding gums, difficulty eating, dropping food, pawing at the mouth or changes in chewing can all be signs of dental disease and should be checked by your veterinary team.

Give us a call if you would like to get your pet booked in for a dental check with one of our nurses.
