Do you know how to spot blue-green algae?

Exposure to blue-green algae can cause long-term health problems in pets and can even be fatal. By drinking from or swimming in contaminated water, pets are at a high risk of becoming seriously ill.

Contact your vet immediately if you think your pet is at risk of blue-green algae poisoning. For more information of what to look out for and how to protect your pet, read our advice article here: https://bit.ly/3LqTmA4

Over the summer, our vets see a lot of dogs who have issues because of grass seeds. It is important to contact your vet immediately if you suspect your dog has an injury caused by a grass seed.

If walking your dog in long grass or woodland areas, we recommend checking your dog over and brushing away any grass seeds after the walk is done. Pay particular attention to paws, ears, eyes, and armpits.

To learn more about grass seeds, and our four simple steps for dealing with them, read our helpful advice article here: https://bit.ly/3zAdaOP

Do you have questions about neutering your cat? It's something we strongly advise as it has many benefits for them and helps to tackle the number of stray cats in the UK.

Female cats will benefit from reduced risk of unwanted pregnancy, certain health conditions and even certain types of cancer. For male cats, neutering reduces their urge to fight other males, lessening the chance of certain diseases, and it also means they are less likely to mark their territory around your home.

It’s important to keep your pet hydrated all year round as it delivers lots of benefits to your pets health, but especially during the warmer months. Cats and dogs both sweat through their paw pads, so as they’ll do this more now it’s hot, they will need to be provided with more fresh water. 💧

Read our tips below on keeping your pet hydrated and how to spot the symptoms of dehydration in your dog, cat or rabbit.

🚩 Grass seed season is here! 🚩

These tiny ‘seeds’ range from the size of a grain of rice and can become incredibly painful for your dog. They can become lodged in a dog’s ears, eyes, paws & nose and as they are pointed and sharp, they can also work their way under the skin and around your dog’s body.

Grass seeds are most prevalent in the summer months; when the grass is longer, and your dog spends more time out walking and bounding around enjoying the lovely weather.

If possible, try and avoid areas where you can clearly see grass seeds. Where that isn’t possible, we recommend that after every walk in long grass or woodland areas, you check your dog over and brush away any grass seeds. You should pay particular attention to:

Paws 🐾
Ears 👂
Eyes 👀
Nose 👃

Pets can develop skin allergies at any age, so it's important to make sure you know the signs and symptoms. Dogs may start scratching excessively, whereas cats may start licking their belly, back, or behind their legs more than usual.

The most common skin allergy is called atopic dermatitis, and although it's a lifelong condition, it can be controlled and managed, meaning your pet can lead a normal and healthy life. Treatments may include medication, supplements, or even newer monoclonal antibody treatments.

The law is changing - from 10 June 2024, cats in England must be microchipped and registered on a database by the time they’re 20 weeks old. The penalty for not microchipping your cat could be a £500 fine. A microchipped cat has a much higher chance of being reunited - please microchip your cat. We're offering a 25% discount of microchipping until the end of June. Book an appointment today. https://www.medivetgroup.com/vet-practices/

🔬 This little fella here waving at you is Demodex, more commonly known as the eyelash mite. They're normal inhabitants of the skin and usually harmless, unless you have too many of them. In fact we as humans have these living happily in our eyelashes and eyebrows. As long as the body's immune system is functioning properly, these mites cause no harm. If they overgrow due to immunosuppression or genetic factors in young dogs, they can cause hair loss and skin irritation. #mymedivet #parasite
