How many nurses does it take to perform a sedated groom? 😀
Buddy the Shih Tzu was feeling uncomfortable and was in need of some grooming TLC ✂️, however he finds the grooming process very stressful.
A sedated groom allowed our team to groom Buddy with minimum stress, remove any matts and trim his face safely.
Buddy is so much more comfortable now, doesn't he look lovely? 💗

Health conditions that affect guinea pigs' and how you can spot them...
Ringworm: 🚫 This fungal infection can cause hair loss and itchy, scaly skin patches. Keep an eye out for any suspicious spots on their fur.
Flystrike: 😱🦟 Flies lay eggs on your piggy's bottom, leading to serious infections. Regularly check their bottoms for any signs of fly eggs or maggots. Prevention is key!
Flies and Mites: 😓 these pesky critters can cause itchiness, hair loss, and skin irritations. Look out for excessive scratching or red, flaky skin.
Vitamin C Deficiency: 😢 Just like humans, guinea pigs need their daily dose of vitamin C! Lack of this essential nutrient can lead to scurvy, causing weakened gums and joint pain. Make sure they have a balanced diet and plenty of fresh veggies! 🥦 💪
Pododermatitis: 🚶♂️👣 Also known as bumblefoot, this condition affects their precious paws. Watch out for swelling, redness, or sores on the bottom of their feet. Provide soft bedding and a clean environment to prevent discomfort. 💤
Dental Disease: 😬🦷 Overgrown teeth can be a gnawing issue for guinea pigs. Check for difficulty eating, drooling, or weight loss.
Regular vet check-ups and a diet rich in hay helps to keep their chompers in tip-top shape! 😀
Stay vigilant, seek veterinary advice if needed, and give them all the love and care they deserve. ❤️

If you find a tick on your pet DO NOT try to remove it with tweezers - it's easy to leave the tick's head behind. Watch our video on how to safely remove a tick with a tick remover. If you are unsure how to remove a tick, please contact us.
