Just a reminder to check your dogs/cats nails frequently to prevent any curling and imbedding in to their pads! 😬

Nails imbedding in pads is extremely uncomfortable and painful for your pet and could results in infections. It also reduces their ability to grip when walking and may alter their gait.

We find this occurs more frequently in senior pets as they are usually unable to exercise as often compared to when they were younger.

Please check your pets feet on a regular basis regardless of age to prevent this from happening. If you are concerned or need some advice please give us a call on 01353 658333 and book in to see one of our nurses, who are more than happy to help with your concerns.

🐰 HAY TASTING 🐰

Rabbits are fussy eaters! It is important that at least 80% of their diet is hay and that they eat all of it and do not just eat the tasty seed heads!

If you are worried that your rabbit is not eating enough hay then please give us a call for some advice on 01353 658333.

Today is known as Blue Monday which according to scientists is the most depressing day of the year. Did you know that cuddling your dog or cat can release dopamine and serotonin which can help reduce feelings associated with depression. Oxytocin, a hormone known as the 'happiness/love hormone' is also released when cuddling with your pet. If you have the Blue Monday blues then give your pets some extra cuddling. 🥰

🌟PET OF THE MONTH - JANUARY 🌟

This month's pet of the month is Rubble a two-year-old English Bulldog.

Rubble, a rescue, has been with his new owners for two months. He initially came in for a booster vaccine and health check however Rosanne noticed that Rubble had a condition called Cherry Eye in his right eye. His owners said that he had the same condition in his left eye which had been surgically repaired at the previous owner's vet practice. Rosanne recommended that Rubble had this Cherry eye repaired at the earliest opportunity.

Cherry eye occurs when the nictitating gland becomes swollen. This causes the gland to become very red, prolapse and protrude from the eye which then resembles a cherry - hence the name.
The nictitating gland is responsible for 40-50% of tear production therefore if it gets damaged tear production is greatly reduced and can lead to a condition called dry eye. Recurring infections, which could lead to permanent damage to the eye, can also be an issue if the Cherry eye isn't repaired.
Cherry eye does occur more commonly in certain breeds - Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Lhasa Apso, Shih tzu, Pug and the English Bulldog.

Following surgical repair Rubble recovered very well from his general anaesthetic and was sent home with a buster collar and some antibiotic eye ointment.
Rubble was the perfect patient during his stay with us. It was an absolute pleasure to nurse him and we particularly enjoyed his unusual barks and noises!
