Thinking about getting a dog?

Dog ownership can be an incredibly rewarding experience. From providing companionship to keeping us fit and active, there are many ways that dogs enrich our lives.

When considering introducing a dog to your family, it’s important to think about what you can offer a dog in return. Taking some time to consider whether you can fully commit and cater to the needs of a dog, and choosing the right one, can help to set you up for a successful and happy relationship.

Extension to Avian Influenza Prevention Zone

From midday on 18th January (Northern Ireland) and 25th January (England and Scotland), it became a legal requirement for all bird keepers to follow strict biosecurity measures to help protect their flocks from the threat of avian flu.

Further details can be found here (England), here (Scotland), and here (Northern Ireland). These restrictions do not currently affect Wales; up to date information can be found here (Wales).

Avian Influenza Prevention Zone (AIPZ) measures apply to all bird keepers whether they have pet birds, commercial flocks or just a few birds in a backyard flock and are essential to protecting flocks from avian influenza.

Antifreeze and cats

Anti-freeze contains a chemical called Ethylene Glycol, which has a sweet taste and smell that can attract cats - and dogs too. If they find it, they might try to lick or eat it, so always ensure the lid is tightly closed and store it somewhere completely out of your pet’s reach. Signs of anti-freeze poisoning in cats include vomiting, tiredness, unsteadiness, seizures and difficulty breathing. Once consumed, Ethylene Glycol turns into calcium oxalate crystals, which can severely damage the kidneys and often prove fatal. If you think your cat may have ingested anti-freeze, contact your vet immediately - it’s an emergency.

Having your teeth brushed is a strange experience, and many pets will panic if it is not introduced slowly and gently. It may take a month or two to reach a point of “proper brushing” – this is normal and nothing to worry about.

While it's a frequent issue, bad breath in pets should not be considered normal. Often, it's a sign of underlying health problems that need attention. If you're used to your pet cuddling close to your face, you'll likely notice quickly if their breath becomes unpleasant!

Recognising pet obesity.

Overindulged during the holiday season? As many of us embark on New Year’s resolution diet and fitness regimes, lots of our pets would benefit from accompanying us. It is estimated that up to 65% of dogs and 50% of cats in the UK are obese.

Being overweight leaves pets at greater risk of conditions like diabetes, cancer, heart disease and arthritis and studies have shown that it can dramatically reduce their overall life expectancy.

Karen and Merlin

Meet Karen, one of Hearing Dogs’ amazing volunteer dog trainers.

We asked Karen about why she volunteers: “My lovely mum has been deaf since childhood and has had multiple operations on her ears over the years and now has a BAHA hearing aid. When she removes this at night, she hears nothing.”

“She doesn't have a hearing dog herself but it's because of her I got involved with this amazing charity and became a volunteer. I've witnessed her struggles and the lack of understanding from people about her deafness and I wanted to do something to help improve a deaf person's life.”

Karen has been volunteering for ten years and it’s been Poodles all the way. Before current trainee Merlin, there were Jessie, Peach, Sonny, and Ziggy.

Ahead of Merlin's final assessment, Karen has said: “I absolutely adore him and will miss Merlin so much as he makes me laugh everyday. But I feel so excited that someone out there is going to be told about him very soon. Whoever gets him will have an extremely loyal friend who will look after and adore them.”

All at Pinfold would like to thank the 1st Misterton Rainbows, for leaving us this beautiful flower. It now has pride of place on our reception desk! What a lovely surprise this morning 😊🌈 #communityspirit 💕

You may never have seen behind the consultation room in a veterinary practice. So take a look at the work our vets and nurses do on the front line every day to look after animals in veterinary practices, hospitals, in the field and on call - so that they receive the best possible care. Thanks to Molly Case for the poem you have written about our profession. #careforanimals #veterinaryprofession
