What you need to know about tear staining… bro.

Tear stains are those reddish-brown marks around your pet’s eyes. They’re especially noticeable on lighter fur.

So why does tear staining happen? 🤔

💧 Tears contain porphyrins (iron compounds) that stain fur in light.
💧 Damp fur = bacteria growth = more staining.
💧 Some breeds are more prone due to face shape or tear duct issues.

If tear stains appear suddenly or worsen, speak to the team today - 01249 653181

We don’t want a dry eye in the house!

Dry eye, or keratoconjunctivitis sicca, is a condition where for a variety of reasons, pets don’t produce enough tears to keep their eyes moist. This can lead to discomfort, irritation, and even vision problems.

Signs to watch for include redness, discharge, and squinting. If you notice any of these symptoms, consult your vet for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Call our practice on 01249 653181 to find out how we can help with your pet's eyesight!

Until the end of November, we are offering 10% off dental procedures.

Here is an example of a dental we performed recently. The calculus on the teeth had caused some gum recession and pocketing below the gumline meaning she needed some teeth extracting. As you can see, her teeth looked much cleaner afterwards and the dissolvable stitches mean she should recover quickly and able to start playing with her toys again!

If you are interested in taking advantage of this offer, please book a free nurse dental check where we can assess you pets teeth and issue the voucher. The 10% is off the procedure only, not any medications or consumables.
