Lovely Lily💜

Lily came to see us for recently to undergo an ovariohysterectomy also commonly known as a bitch Spey. She was a very good girl and enjoyed the post anaesthetic snooze very much as you can see here she is happily cuddled up in her blanket with those sleepy eyes!

We are happy to report Lilly is feeling much brighter and is back to her normal self now! 💛

Let’s Talk Dental Hygiene! 🦷

Lovely Izzy is here to show off her sparkling smile after a recent dental procedure!

As seen in Photo 1, Izzy had a mild/moderate amount of plaque and tartar buildup, especially around her carnassial and canine teeth. Her owners also noticed an odour coming from her mouth—an early sign that something wasn’t quite right.

Dental disease in pets can manifest in several ways, and it often begins subtly with:

🦷 A persistent bad smell from the mouth

🦷 Visible plaque or tartar on the teeth

🦷 Red, swollen, or inflamed gums

Thankfully, Izzy's owners were proactive and following a 6 month health check with our RVN Jade, Izzy was scheduled in for a dental procedure.
This began with a scale and polish to remove all the built-up plaque and tartar. Once her teeth were scaled, each one was individually charted to check for any signs of abnormalities.

The good news Izzy's teeth were generally in very good condition and only 2 extractions were required. Did you know dogs have 42 permanent teeth!

Moving forward, Izzy's owners plan to maintain that gorgeous smile with regular dental cleaning and home dental care 🪥

Preventive dental care goes a long way in maintaining pets teeth after a dental procedure.

🌟Top Tip Tuesday! 🌟

How to know when it is too cold to walk your dog outside...

As temperatures drop, it’s important to know when it’s too cold to walk your dog

Fit and healthy dogs with thick fur should be fine in all but the most extreme cold weather but our young and old dogs are more susceptible to the cold, so please read the below:

Signs that your dog may be too cold:

❄Shivering
❄ Lifting paws off the ground
❄ Whining, slowing down
❄ Trying to turn back home

You can help keep them safe by keeping walks shorter in the cold, protecting their paws with dog booties and ensuring they have a warm coat. Always monitor your dog closely and bring them inside if they show signs of discomfort.

**Please note the above signs and symptoms are not always directly correlated with your dog being too cold and so please monitor there 'normal' behaviour and if this is a sudden onset and you have concerns that it is not weather related get in touch with your vet**

💛Alfie💛

Alfie is a very special boy and one who comes with a story to tell. Alfie was rescued from a household where there was over 20 dogs living in very poor conditions. Alfie was rescued by his owner when he was around 4 years old, he came as a very nervous dog who was frightened of new people, new environments and would not let anyone near him.

2 years later, a credit to his new owner who has worked extremely hard with his training and general confidence building. Alfie will now trot into the practice, is an angel for his nail trims and is now even brave enough to take treats from us in the practice!

It is so lovely to watch these bonds be built and the true personalities of these dogs come through!💙

🎆Fireworks can be stressful for pets, and it's important to know the signs that
your furry friend is scared🎇

Trembling, hiding, trying to escape, excessive, vocalisation, panting, or drooling are all common indicators of anxiety.🐾

Here are some top tips to help keep your pets calm and safe during the
fireworks:

🏚️ Create a Safe Space: Set up a cosy, quiet room with their favourite toys
and blankets.

📻 Noise Distraction: Play calming music or turn on the TV to help drown
out the loud bangs outside.

🐕‍🦺🚶‍♂️Walk Earlier: Take your dog for a walk before dark, before the fireworks
start.

🏠Keep Them Indoors: Make sure windows, doors, and pet flaps are
closed so your pet can't escape if they get spooked.

🐇🐹Don’t Forget the Small Pets: Move rabbits, guinea pigs, and other small
pets indoors or cover their enclosures to muffle the noise.

If your pet gets distressed, speak to us about how we can help.

Let's make sure our pets enjoy a peaceful, stress-free evening!
