It’s grass seed season 🌾! These barbed seeds easily attach to fur and can burrow into the skin, causing pain and infection.

Watch for These Signs:
Ears: Head shaking, scratching, and discomfort may indicate a seed lodged in the ear. These don’t work their way out and may need removal under sedation or anaesthetic.

Eyes: Redness, weeping, pawing, or squinting can signal a seed under the eyelid. Prompt vet attention is needed to prevent damage.
Feet: Lameness, licking, swelling, or oozing between toes could mean a seed
has pierced the skin. These can travel up the leg and may cause infections.

Prevention Tips:
-Avoid areas with long grass during summer.
-Trim coats, especially around feet, ears, and between toes – particularly important for breeds like spaniels.
-After walks, check your dog thoroughly and remove any visible seeds.

Is Your Pet Overdue for Their Booster Vaccine 🐾💉? Let’s Get Them Back on Track!

Vaccines do more than just protect — they supercharge your pet’s immune system, shielding them from potentially life-threatening infectious diseases. Plus, every vaccination appointment includes a thorough health check from nose to tail — giving you peace of mind that your pet is happy, healthy, and thriving.

If it’s been over a year since their last jab, good news — it’s not too
late! You can still book their booster without having to restart the course.
But if they’re more than 3 months overdue, they’ll need to begin a full vaccination course again. Don’t worry — we’ve got you covered.

Join Our Vaccine Catch-Up Campaign!
We’ll make it easier (and more affordable) to get your pet protected. Pay for the first overdue vaccine, and we’ll give you the second one free!

Let’s keep your furry friend safe, healthy, and ready for all of life’s
adventures — book today! Call us on 01395 267928 ☎️ and our reception team will advise you of the next available appointment and answer any questions you may have.

Adder bite awareness - protecting dogs and wildlife 🐍

As the warmer months arrive, we are more likely to spot Britain’s only venomous snake - the adder. While bites in dogs are thankfully rare, cases tend to peak between June and August. ☀️🐍

Adders are a protected species and these beautiful creatures are an important part of our ecosystem. They are not aggressive and only bite in self defence - including when stepped on or surprised by a curious dog!

By staying alert and respecting their space, we can help protect both our dogs and
our native wildlife. Adders are most commonly found in drier, open habitats like:
🌳 Woodland edges
🌱 Grassy heaths and moorland
🏖 Sandy coastal areas and rocky paths
Keeping dogs under close control or on a lead, and sticking to clear paths, can help
to avoid encounters

Ticks - prevention & treatment

Preventing ticks is always better than treating a tick-related illness. Thankfully, there are lots of effective tick prevention options available, including spot-on treatments, sprays, and long-lasting collars. These can be used alongside or sometimes instead of your pet’s usual parasite control, depending on the product.

Some treatments repel ticks, while others kill them after they attach. Either way, reducing the time ticks spend on your pet lowers the risk of disease. Even with protection, it’s still a good idea to check your pet for ticks after walks, especially in areas where ticks are more common. If you find one, it’s best to remove it promptly.

Not sure which product is right for your pet? Our vets and nurses are
always happy to help you choose the most suitable option.
Tick prevention is fully covered as part of The Healthy Pet Club membership.

7th July - World Chocolate Day 🍫

On World Chocolate Day, it's sensible to keep in mind that chocolate is poisonous to our canine friends.

Try to keep chocolate out of reach of your dog, but if an accident
does happen, these are the symptoms you should keep an eye
out for.

The poison itself takes between 4 and 24 hours to cause signs
which include:
🍫 Muscle stiffness
🍫 Tremors
🍫 Vomiting
🍫 Heart arrhythmias and fitting

If you notice these symptoms, call us immediately.

Pet insurance or a preventative healthcare plan?
Pet insurance can cover unexpected accidents or illnesses which may come your pets way.

Preventative healthcare schemes focus on keeping your pet healthy and protected on an everyday basis. For example, covering their vaccinations, parasite control and health checks, things insurance doesn't cover.
