That’s why we recommend WellPet blood screening at appropriate intervals based on your pet’s life stage.

WellPet blood screening includes a complete blood count and biochemistry test, providing essential insights into your pet’s health.

This screen can detect early signs of diseases like anaemia, kidney disease and thyroid issues.

Early detection allows us to intervene and prevent these issues from becoming serious.

If you have any questions, please speak to a team member. We are here to support you and your pet.

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 it will develop to heat stroke, which is extremely dangerous.

If your pet shows any of these signs, they should be moved to a cool area and offered plenty of water to drink.

Our June Pet of the Month was Bob.......

Back in June Bobs mum noticed he was limping and stiff when getting up. He was brought in for a consult with Dr Mark who on examination noticed Bob seemed to be in pain with his hips. It was decided it was best to do an X-ray to see what was going on. For poor Bob this was only the beginning!

Mark noticed a concerning soft tissue structure in his abdomen on the X-rays. He could see there was a mass there but the exact size and nature couldn’t be determined on X-rays alone so it was suggested we also do a CT scan to get a better idea.

The CT showed the mass was an abscess that extended almost the whole of Bob’s abdomen and that it could be complicated to remove. To determine how complex Bob then needed a specialist ultrasound! The ultrasound showed the abscess would be difficult to remove and after discussing the case with a specialist surgeon it was determined that medical management was the best route for Bob for now. He is doing well on his medication and is closely monitored (spoilt) by his loving family.

GOOD LUCK BOB!

Deafness can be a very isolating disability, so a hearing dog offers constant companionship and emotional support, giving deaf people the confidence to reconnect with their family, friends and community around them. This combination of practical assistance and lifelong friendship can be completely life-changing.

Deafness is rising in the UK; by 2035, it is estimated that one in five British people (over 15 million) will experience hearing loss.

Hearing Dogs for Deaf People is a national charity that trains dogs to alert deaf people to important and life-saving sounds like the smoke alarm, alarm clock and even a baby’s cry. Their burgundy coats also act as a visual reminder to the public when they are out and about that their partner is deaf.

Donations raised through Pennies when you pay by card help support Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. Just a small donation can make a big difference!
