You know your pet is covered day to day with their routine parasite treatment, but what about if you take your pet abroad?
There are many different diseases and parasites that our pets can come into contact with when travelling to foreign countries.

Imagine you are deaf. You can’t hear your smoke alarm or alarm clock. You can’t hear your text messages. You miss out on social interactions. That’s what life is like for deaf people, and it can be very isolating. A hearing dog can make a big difference. You can help our charity of the year
– Hearing Dogs for Deaf People
– help a deaf person leave loneliness behind, by adding a donation via Pennies when you pay by card. Just a small donation can help deaf people escape isolation and reconnect with life. Thank you.

Our pets are part of the family and we want to share fun experiences with them – including taking them on holiday!🏖️

While this often results in great fun and wonderful memories, there are a few things to consider first. A bit of planning beforehand goes a long way towards making it a positive experience for everyone.

Are you looking to travel abroad with your pet this summer?🛫
If you are, you will be required to obtain an Animal Health Certificate (AHC) for them.
An AHC needs to be issued by an Official Veterinarian (OV).
Check with your veterinary practice to see if they have a qualified OV because not every practice will have one.

ITS HOT OUT TODAY!!!☀️

Please call the clinic to reschedule your appointment if it is too hot for your pet!!
We advise to only attend clinic if it is urgent.

Unlike us, pets have no understanding that hot weather can be harmful. We control their environment, their access to water and their exercise, and they can’t speak up if they start feeling unwell. Heat stroke can rapidly progress and, even with veterinary treatment, is often fatal.

Heat stress starts as a reversible condition, but if not managed itwill develop to heat stroke, which is extremely dangerous.

In 2024, BVNA is celebrating 20 years of campaigning during the month of May, to raise awareness of veterinary nursing.

We know that it’s currently a challenging time for the veterinary profession, and when teams are busy and stretched, time and capacity can be very limited. But – we still fundamentally believe that veterinary nurses everywhere deserve to be applauded.
