Posh Paws Dog Grooming

I just love how chilled and relaxed this gorgeous boy is on his visits to me, but trying to groom him can prove awkward when he seems too comfy to move 🥰

Plenty of fun things can be done in the cool of the house to occupy and stimulate your dogs. I won’t be taking mine out at all today, as I started work early this morning and will probably be asleep by the time it’s cooled off. Yes it’s me that feels guilty, but my girls are enjoying finding their dinner that’s been hidden all around the house 🤣 and had frozen yogurt treats earlier today.

The trouble with the heat for our dogs is not just that it is 29° C outside today, but that less than 2 weeks ago it was 16°C. We can adapt to a sudden change like this by changing what we wear. Dogs can't adapt so quickly.
Choose slow shady wanders at cooler times of day, or miss walks for a couple of days. The weather will be cold and damp again soon enough!

I think these two felt better after a visit today. We were all grateful of the air con that’s for sure 🥰

Lovely Daisy came in to see me again today for her first puppy trim. She was a very good girl and coped extremely well. Thankfully I’d done a few puppy sessions with her so it wasn’t such a big deal.

I think Pascha is regretting her decision to go for a paddle in the silage ditch this morning. I know we are 🫣 she absolutely stunk 🤢

🐕 Oil Seed R**e is NOT highly toxic to dogs. The scent can be overpowering, causing dogs to get lost. Some dogs suffer allergic reactions to the sap, and they'll probably throw up if they eat it. But it isn't deadly. However, please keep your dog on the footpath through r**e (and any other crops) as any damage causes farmers to lose money.
🐕 Ice is NOT deadly. If it's a warm day, your dog might enjoy some ice in their water bowl or a frozen treat. Freezing food stuffed toys makes them last longer. Raggies soaked in chicken broth and frozen are great for teething. But if your dog is suffering heat exhaustion, avoid ice. The shock of icy water on the stomach could cause vomiting and further dehydration.
🐕 Adders are rarely deadly, but their bites cause very unpleasant and painful wounds. If you suspect an adder bite.call your vet and get there as soon as possible. Carry or stretcher your dog if possible. Cool water might soothe the pain a little, but don't delay getting to the vet. Antivenom is not essential, but your vet will know where the nearest supply is if necessary. Adder bells probably don't work, walking with a stick (which vibrates the ground), and keeping your dog on the path is safest.
🐕Most garden bulbs are NOT deadly. A nibble of a daffodil or bluebell leaf may cause stomach irritation, that's all. Eating a large amount of bulbs could be dangerous. Some garden plants, including Foxglove, Lily of the Valley, and Oleander, are toxic in small quantities and should be avoided.
🐕 Ticks must only be removed with a suitable tick hook or similar tool. They must never be smothered in liquid soap, doused in alcohol, burnt, or squashed. If the tick is disturbed it is more likely to infect your pet (or you!) if it is carrying disease.

We have been notified that a poisonous plant is being used as decoration in a pot plant that can be purchased in garden centres and possibly florists.

The pot plant is Livistona rotundifolia (footstool palm; also known as Saribus rotundifolius) and pots of these plants are decorated with three fibrous balls. The balls are the skeletonised fruit of Cerbera odollam (su***de tree, pong-pong). Within each fruit is a kernel that is extremely toxic; a single kernel can be fatal if eaten and poses a risk to both pets and people. The toxic compounds in Cerbera odollam are cardiac glycosides, which are also found in foxglove, oleander, lily of the valley and other plants.

If you have these fibrous fruits in your pot plant, remove them and dispose of them safely. It you are worried your pet may have eaten the plant material contact Animal PoisonLine (01202 509 000)or your vet immediately.
