Thinking about getting a pet?🐇🐈🐕🐠

🐾Think carefully before getting a pet and learn about their special requirements. Would they fit with your family and lifestyle? Are you able to walk them daily give them the time they need?

🐾 Make sure your pet is well socialised and trained and is stimulated so they don’t become bored.

🐾Provide a well balanced suitable diet.

🐾Provide suitable housing and bedding. (You would be surprised how big a rabbit enclosure/hutch should be)

🐾Clean up after your pet and provide suitable parasite treatment.

🐾Protect your pet from diseases by giving them vaccinations.

🐾Seek professional advice on neutering.

🐾Groom your pet regularly.

🐾Make sure your pet can be identified - microchipping and for dogs a collar with an identity tag. (All details should be kept up to date!)

🐾Pet Insurance to help with vet fees and third party liability.

Adder bites are most common from June to August; would you know what to do if your pet ever encountered one? 🐍

Although rare, it's a good idea to get clued up on what to do if your pet is ever bitten by a snake - especially adders, the UK's only venomous snake species. Usually, adders aren't a threat, but they might defend themselves if a curious pooch gets too close.

If your pet gets bitten by an adder, you must treat it as an emergency by following the first aid advice below and contacting your vet immediately. Cats can also suffer from adder bites (although it's less common), and the same first aid should apply.

You can reduce the chance of encountering adders by avoiding areas known for them; staying out of long grass, woodland, moorland, and along the coast (sand dunes/coastal paths); and researching any unfamiliar areas for adder 'hot-spots' before walking your dog 🐕

[Visual description: An infographic showing photos of an adder and its markings. Alongside this is the following text: Adder bites in dogs. If your dog has been bitten by an adder, their symptoms will depend on where the bite is and where the venom spreads to. If the venom stays in the tissues around the bite, it will cause pain and swelling, but if it spreads further and gets into the bloodstream, it can cause much more serious problems, such as damage to the liver, kidneys, and nervous system. First aid for a snake bite. 1. If you see the snake, try to remember what it looks like or take a photo from a distance. Do not try to find the snake, get close to it, touch it, or harm it. Adders are a protected species, so it's illegal to hurt or kill them, and they can bite people if disturbed. 2. Keep your dog as still as possible to prevent the venom from spreading around their body. 3. Leave the bite alone, don't apply a bandage or tourniquet. 4. Call your vet to let them know you are coming down to the practice. 5. If possible, bring a car to your dog or, depending on their weight, carry them to it. Snake bites are an emergency - if your dog has been bitten, follow our first aid advice and take them to a vet ASAP.]

‼️Missed Appointment Slots‼️

In just 14 days in our Hospital alone we have had 29 missed appointment slots and 8 missed procedure slots. As a busy practice it is vital you cancel your appointment if you are unable to attend so we can make the appointments available for other clients. We understand that sometimes life gets in the way but going forward we would really appreciate it if you could cancel appointments/ procedures if they are not needed. 🐶🐕🐇🐈🐹🐕‍🦺🐈‍⬛
