One month post dental procedure, we apply a red stain to highlight areas of bacteria and plaque growth 🦷 This is applied to the mouth and then rinsed off. The pink areas will help the owner to know which areas to focus toothbrushing on. We're offering FREE dental hygiene clinics on Friday 14th February, where our Registered Veterinary Nurse, Eve, will examine your pet's mouth and will advise dental health care for your pet. If you have any questions, please call us on 01228 710208 📞

Is your dog scared of fireworks? Then now is the time to begin a firework desensitisation programme 🎇❌ Here you can see Graham, our lead vet, with his dog Skye, who is scared of fireworks. They are starting the desensitisation programme now, so that Skye will have a better experience when she is subject to fireworks again later in the year.

❄️⚠️ Snow advice for dog owners ⚠️❄️ Although the snow may look inviting, it is important to take precautions to ensure your dog is safe in the snow. Walking for your dog will become much more difficult in the snow and use up much more of their energy. Therefore, we would advice to complete shorter walks and be mindful of the route you take in these conditions 🌨️ If your dog is sensitive to the cold, please remember to put on a coat. If you'd like any further advice, please call us on 01228 710208 📞

2024 might be coming to an end but we are all looking forward to see what 2025 brings! Happy new year everyone!

Little Christmas competition between our vets and nurses today. Who do you think will put an E-Collar together the quickest?

Just like that, it's day 12 of our Christmas countdown 🎄 From the Farm team to you, we wish you a baa-rillant Christmas ✨ We hope you enjoyed the festive fun at Paragon 👀

Here are some tips to keep your furry friends safe and happy this festive period ⬇️ 🍫 Keep chocolate stored away (especially if you're hiding it out of sight). 🥕 Avoid feeding your pet tidbits and check that the food is suitable for pets to eat first. 🎄 Secure decorations. Tinsel, baubles and fairy lights can all be tangling hazards. 🦮 Maintain your pet's routine to help keep them relaxed. 🌺 Festive plants like a poinsettia are toxic to pets, so keep them out of reach. If you need any advice, please call us on 01228 710208 📞
