Beach tips...
There’s nothing like a trip to the seaside on a summer’s day, especially when your furry friend can come along and join in the fun! Sadly, beaches can pose some threats to our dogs so it’s important for owners to remain vigilant.
Let’s take a look at the main threats to watch out for, and how to keep your dog safe when they’re at the beach. Watch our explainer video and for more information visit https://www.myfamilyvets.co.uk/taking-care-of-your-dog-at-the-beach
If your pooch gets a little worried when coming to visit us, you are more than welcome to pop in whenever you can to weigh them, or even just to get a few strokes and treats from our team. This help build up your dogs confidence when they do need to come and see one of our vets! 💕

Be safe! Be seen!🔦
When walking your dog in the dark, make sure that both you and your dog are visible to others. For owners, this means avoiding dark clothing and wearing reflective safety gear such as a vest, strap or wristband.
There are several options for keeping your dog visible in the dark, such as a reflective dog jacket, collar, lead, harness or even an LED light-up safety necklace. Dogs with darker fur are more difficult to see in the dark. However, even if you have a lighter coloured dog, you should make sure your dog can be seen in the dark.
