In scrubby or bushy regions, summer can equal snakes! 🐍

If you visit areas with your dog where venomous snakes could be present, it’s best to keep your pet on a short lead by your side. It’s also a good idea to be aware of the more common symptoms of snake bite, which can include:
✅ Temporary collapse
✅ Weakness or wobbliness
✅ Muscle tremors
✅ Large pupils
✅ Loss of bladder or bowel control
✅ Dark or bloody discoloured urine

⚠️ If you ever suspect your pet has been bitten by a snake, try to stay calm and seek immediate veterinary treatment.

For more information on snake bites in pets, consult our snake-savvy vets.

“Why does my dog keep getting ear infections?” 👂

Whilst any dog can develop a one-off ear issue, some unlucky pets seem to have a predisposition to problems.

Recurrent ear infections in dogs are commonly secondary to underlying allergies (such as environmental or food allergies) but can also occur in dogs who swim frequently, breeds with droopy ears such as spaniels, and breeds with naturally narrow ear canals such as Shar Peis.

If your pet suffers from recurrent ear infections, it’s best to book a consult and lend us your ears, as there are lots we can offer to help manage the issue. 📞

Does your dog experience episodes of “reverse sneezing”? 😮‍💨

Reverse sneezing is when pets appear to get stuck in a temporary loop of snorting air in via their nose, almost as though they have something stuck in their nose or throat.

While a lot of dogs will reverse sneeze on occasion, it tends to occur more frequently in pets with overlong soft palates (such as flat-faced breeds), long-nosed sighthounds, and pets experiencing nose or throat irritation due to allergies or airborne irritants such as pollen or smoke.

If you have any concerns about your dog’s respiratory health, take a deep breath and consult our veterinary team! 🐾

PSA (Pet Service Announcement): please don’t forget to stay on top of regular parasite prevention for your pet, especially as the weather warms up! ☀️🐕

Warmer conditions favour the survival and breeding of pesky parasites such as fleas, ticks and some intestinal worms. Additionally, in heartworm-endemic areas, mosquitoes capable of spreading dangerous heartworm disease between pets will also become more active.

For advice on the safest and most effective parasite prevention routines for your pet, consult our knowledgeable team.

Does your cat get runny eyes? 👀

Persians and similar breeds are more likely to get regular eye goop due to their flatter facial anatomy. However, recurrent eye discharge can also be associated with other health issues, such as environmental allergies or cat flu.

If your cat regularly gets weepy eyes but seems otherwise fine, we’d recommend twice daily cleaning around their eyes with a clean, warm, wet compress. However, if your cat’s eye discharge is associated with any redness, irritation, or other unwellness, it’s best to have them checked by one of our vets.

When it comes to feline eye health, our team is eye-mazing!

Do you know the signs of flea infestation in cats? 😿

Being only 2-4mm long and mobile, these parasites can be difficult to spot, especially since cats usually endeavour to groom fleas out of their fur. You’re more likely to detect their presence by parting the fur in several areas around your pet’s rump to look for tiny black “flea dirt” (flea poo) granules.

It’s also a good idea to monitor for signs of your cat grooming or scratching more, or the development of red, scabby dots or bald spots on the skin around their head, neck, rump or belly. 🐈

If you suspect fleas in your pet, consult our pest-proficient team for advice on effective and safe treatment options.

As we spring into Spring, watch out for more “creepy crawlies” about! 🐜🌼 As well as increased activity of common parasites like fleas and ticks, the warmer weather will likely bring your pet into contact with more ants and bees.

For most dogs, ant and bee stings result in local irritation or pain only, although this may still require veterinary treatment to settle.

However, for pets with severe allergies, an insect sting may trigger dangerous anaphylaxis. This leads to severe allergy symptoms such as weakness, vomiting, breathing difficulties, and pale gums, and necessitates urgent veterinary care.

🐶 For more information on allergies in pets, contact our allergy-aware team.

During a dental, your dog is placed under anaesthesia for comfort and safety. A thorough dental requires cleaning under the gum line, which is practically impossible in a conscious animal. 🐕

While under anaesthesia, we remove tartar, clean below the gumline, polish teeth, take dental x-rays and check for hidden issues. We can also remove or remedy teeth if problems are detected. Your pet will be given pain relief and wake with a fresh mouth after the short procedure.

If you want to learn more about what happens during your dog’s dental clean, feel free to book a consultation with us today! 📞

Some breeds, like Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, can have higher anaesthetic risks, particularly if they have a heart murmur or clinical heart disease.

Regardless of their breed, we always tailor anaesthesia plans and monitoring for every pet’s safety. We will discuss your pet’s needs with you before any procedure. 👨‍⚕️😺👩‍⚕️
