Lovely Lilly came to visit us at our Chaddesden branch last week. She thought she could avoid her appointment by blending in and pretending to be part of the furniture🥹 Unfortunately for her, our nurse spotted her! Luckily, the appointment was quick, and Lilly was soon on her way back home.

This is hungry, handsome, Hank! This cheeky young man gave his owner a scare by eating 200g of chocolate!🍫

We all love a sweet treat, but for our dogs, chocolate can be toxic (and sometimes life-threatening). The darker the chocolate, the more dangerous it is, but all chocolate is unsafe for dogs.

⚠️ Even small amounts can cause:
- Vomiting & diarrhoea
- Restlessness or hyperactivity
- Rapid heart rate
- Seizures

👉 If your dog eats chocolate, don’t wait for symptoms, call us immediately!

Here’s what we do at the clinic to help:
1️⃣ We give an injection to safely make your dog vomit up the chocolate (or whatever they ate that they shouldn't have)
2️⃣ We monitor while the medication wears off naturally, allowing your dog time to stop vomiting and settle down.
3️⃣ Your dog then goes home with activated charcoal, which helps absorb any toxins left behind.

Let’s keep our furry friends safe🐾

Did you know that only 5% of fleas live on your pet? The other 95% are hiding in your home as eggs, larvae, and pupae, waiting to hatch and jump back on!

𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐜𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬:
1️⃣ Eggs – Female fleas lay eggs whilst on your pet and can produce 40-50 eggs a day leaving them to fall off your pet and all over your home.

2️⃣ Larvae – Each egg can hatch into a larvae and live in carpets, fabrics and small crevices in your pet's environment.
They feed on adult flea faeces and organic material they find until they're ready to develop into pupae.

3️⃣ Pupae – Pupae develop into adult fleas inside tiny cocoons. Here they can stay dormant for long periods and come out in response to heat, carbon dioxide and movement.

4️⃣ Adult Fleas – Once on your pet, adult fleas spend the rest of their lives there, feeding and laying eggs that infest your home within a matter of days.

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐏𝐞𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐞:
✅ Use regular, vet-recommended flea prevention all year round, not just in summer.

✅Wash your pet’s bedding and vacuum your home regularly (don’t forget under sofas and skirting boards!).

✅Treat ALL pets in your household – not just the itchy ones.

✅ Ask us about safe and effective treatments for both pets and the home environment.

This very handsome boy, Milo, joined us yesterday for a dental procedure at our Chaddesden branch🥰

Did you know?
🦷 Periodontal disease affects over 80% of dogs by age 3—and can lead to pain, tooth loss, and serious organ issues (heart, kidneys)

🦷Bad breath, difficulty chewing, reduced appetite and swollen gums are all signs that your pup may need dental care

🦷Daily brushing (or alternatives which can be found in both our branches if brushing isn’t possible) is key to keeping your pet’s teeth in tip-top shape
