⚠️ IMPORTANT INFORMATION ⚠️

It is with great sadness we are letting you know we have had two cases of dogs becoming unwell with Parvovirus within the last week.

Even more heartbreakingly is that both dogs were fully vaccinated as puppies but have not yet had their first annual booster. It is presumed there is a virulent strain of Parvovirus circulating in the area.

To try and prevent this spreading further or more dogs becoming unwell with this horrible illness we would urge for:-

🐾 All dog owners who’s vaccinations have lapsed to ensure they restart the course in full.

🐾 All dogs due their annual booster to make sure they don’t go overdue.

🐾 All puppies who have had their first two vaccinations for their primary puppy course to book in for an extra Parvo vaccination top-up at 16 weeks (at a cost of £18).

If anyone has any concerns at all or questions please don’t hesitate to phone the practice on 01484 714597.

🦠IMPORTANT🦠
Unfortunately we have had a case of Blue-green algae poisioning this weekend. The dog had been swimming in Bottom Mill Dam in Holmbridge and has sadly passed away. This has been reported to environmental health.

Exposure to toxic blue-green algae is often fatal, and can also cause long term health problems in dogs that survive after drinking or swimming in algae-contaminated water. Some types of blue-green algae can kill a dog just 15 minutes to an hour after drinking contaminated water.

DO NOT let your dogs drink or swim in any water which has a green bloom on the surface! If you think your dog has been exposed please call your vet ASAP.

Symptoms of blue-green algae poisioning-
🦠 Vomiting
🦠 Diarrhoea
🦠 Seizures
🦠 Weakness/ collapse
🦠 Disorientation
🦠 Drooling
🦠 Breathing difficulties
