🎆🐾 FIREWORKS SEASON DOESN'T HAVE TO BE SCARY! 🐶🐱❤️

While fireworks may be exciting for us, they can be absolutely terrifying for our furry friends! 💔

The loud bangs and bright flashes can cause severe anxiety, trembling, hiding, pacing and even attempts to escape.

✨ The good news? We can help! ✨

Here are a few tips to keep your pets feeling safe:

🐾 Create a safe space – A quiet, cosy room where your pet can retreat and feel secure.

🐾 Close curtains and windows – This helps reduce loud noises and bright flashes.

🐾 Play calming music – Background noise can help mask the sound of fireworks.

🐾 Keep pets indoors – Make sure gates and doors are secure and your pets have identification.

🐾 Comfort them! – It's absolutely okay to reassure your frightened pet. You won't make their fear worse by showing them love. ❤️

💊 DID YOU KNOW WE CAN HELP WITH FIREWORK ANXIETY?

At Vet On Main, we have options to help your pets cope!

💚 Over-the-counter calming products are available for pets with mild anxiety.

💚 For pets with more severe anxiety, book a consultation with one of our vets to discuss stronger, prescription calming medication.

💚 Don't wait until the fireworks start! Some treatments work best when started in advance.

❤️ Your pet doesn't have to suffer through fireworks season.

Pop into Vet On Main or give us a call, and let's find the best solution for your furry family member!

SPIROCERCA AWARENESS

We’ve seen 2 cases of spirocerca in just one month. 💔
Spirocerca is a serious parasite that can affect your dog’s health. The best way to protect them? Monthly deworming.

Deworming options:
●Milpro
●Milbemax
●Advantage
●Nexgard Spectra

Some information:

Spirocerca – a small worm that can cause a big problem

Spirocerca lupi is a parasite seen in dogs that forms nodules or masses, most commonly in the oesophagus. Dogs may show vomiting or regurgitation, difficulty swallowing, excessive salivation, weight loss or coughing, although some dogs have very subtle signs initially.

Fortunately, early diagnosis and appropriate antiparasitic treatment can make a significant difference. Prevention with an effective monthly parasite product is particularly important in areas where Spirocerca is common. 🐶🩺
