Look at this handsome boy, Wilson 🐶💙

Wilson came in yesterday to see our vet, Lucas, for a general health check. It was this ‘little’ pups first visit with us. He had so much fun with Kelly and Dan in reception that he didn’t want to leave and protested his mummy with a lie down in the middle of the floor 😂

If you have a puppy, anxious dog or just want to bring your dog in for some socialisation we are always very welcoming and love to see everyone! It’s also the perfect time to pop them on the scales for weight management.

24/06/2024

To celebrate Rabbit Awareness Week we have some free samples of Science Selective rabbit food in practice, pop in to get your free sample bag.

If you’re bringing a child/children along to their pets appointment, we also have some colouring sheets with cute bunnies on, the children are more than welcome to do whilst waiting, or to take home and colour in. 🐰

🐰 It's Day One of Rabbit Awareness Week 2024 - Healthy Diet, Happy Bunnies! and we're diving straight into the importance of a healthy diet for rabbits!

Whether you're a well seasoned rabbit owner or just a bunny lover, we have something for everyone! So, let's spread the word and make sure all bunnies are well-fed and thriving🥬

Stay tuned for more tips and info throughout the week, and don't forget to show your support by liking, commenting, and sharing our posts. Let's make the best one yet!💚

🎆FIREWORK PREP 🎇

Fireworks can cause stress, anxiety and even aggression in pets. Be prepared for the party season approaching. Here’s our top tips:

1. Use a calming diffuser such as Pet Remedy or Adaptil/Feliway in the house. This should ideally be done a few weeks before firework season.

2. Walk dogs early! Gradually alter your normal walking routine and time a week before to minimise disruption.

3. Keep cats indoors. Cats are more likely to roam and go missing when they are frightened, keeping them inside and distracted keeps them safe.

4. Provide hiding places. Dog crates with blankets over them, cat hides, covering small furry hutches.

5. Shut down the house. Close windows, doors, curtains and blinds. This will muffle the noise from outside.

6. Turn up the TV or Radio. Some stations will also be playing calming music for pets during the fireworks.

7. Consider bringing hutches inside into the house, garage or shed. This will muffle the noise as well and will also protect them from falling sparks and shrapnel.

8. Stay at home. If you know your pet is frightened or this is your pets first firework season, consider staying at home with them and giving them reassurance.

9. Give them a treat. Giving your pets a high reward treat, one they don’t often get, is a good distraction. Using stuffed chew toys or puzzle mats can keep them stimulated for a few hours.

10. Make sure they’re microchipped! Spooked animals will try and run away. It is not always possible to prevent them from getting out if they are scared, so make sure they’re microchipped with your updated details to allow for quick return.

If you have any questions on preparing for firework season or are worried about your animals, please contact the practice on 01526 833555 📞
