We’ve noticed a recent trend of owners being encouraged to feed their dogs blueberries as a regular component of their diet. ❓🐶

Blueberries are safe for dogs and, being high in fibre, antioxidants and vitamins A, C and K, they can be a yummy, natural, health-boosting snack too. 🫐

But does your dog need to eat blueberries every day? No – provided they’re already eating a quality, complete and balanced diet. So, if blueberries are a bit pricey in the shops, save them for a special, healthy treat for your pet!

For more pet dietary advice, consult our nutritionally-knowledgeable team.

Do you know why cats can’t survive on dog food long-term? 🐱

It’s because dog food doesn’t contain enough taurine to meet feline nutritional requirements. Taurine is an essential amino acid for cats, meaning it must be supplied in adequate levels in their diet because they have a limited ability to produce it within their body.

A deficiency of taurine in your cat’s diet will eventually lead to degeneration in their eye and heart health. ❤️

For advice on a complete, balanced diet for your cat, consult our feline-friendly team.

Our bay is a delight for us humans. We enjoy it for boating, swimming , fishing, walks, diving and many other activities.
Sometimes we forget that our activities impact the lives of the animals who call our bay home.
Concerned beach goers saw and managed to catch and bring to the clinic, a Gannet who was entangled in a big lure with fishing line attached. He was completely stuck. He couldn't fly, protect himself or feed himself. Luckily Dr Rachael was able to carefully untangle him and found he was ok. Later the same day he was successfully relesed.
Please remember that things left at the beach can caused harm.

Did you know that the wellness check associated with your pet’s annual vaccination helps us to detect any developing health problems earlier? This means we can start helping your pet sooner – hooray! 🐾

To get the maximum value from your pet’s consultation, don’t forget to mention any subtle changes in their general condition or activities at the time of booking. These include:
✅ New lumps
✅ Unexplained weight changes
✅ Changes in their drinking levels
✅ Changes to their urination habits
✅ Changes in their poo quality
✅ Behaviour changes

More informed vets = a better assessment of your pet! 😊

🧼 Does your pet have itchy or inflamed skin, particularly as the weather begins to warm? Prescription or medicated shampoos can help manage allergic skin disease and soothe irritation.

There are lots of different types of shampoos depending on your pet’s particular needs. Ask us if a medicated wash could benefit your pet’s skin health. 🐶

🦶 Licking or redness between your dog’s toes can be caused by allergies, grass seeds, injuries or infections. In Spring, we see an increase in both allergic skin disease as well as injuries caused by penetrating grass seeds.

Dogs with particularly hairy feet and toes tend to be at increased risk. Persistent irritation to your pet’s skin should be checked by a vet without delay, as early treatment can prevent worse outcomes. ✅
