Happy National Puppy Day! 🐶
A human and puppy bond is one that we can’t compare, but it’s one that we are thankful we get to share.

This time last year you may remember Freddy and Mercury were bought in to the practice and they were only hours old.
Everyone coming into the practice would have seen them being cuddled by the reception team as they worked.
Sheryl our head nurse took them home that first day and look at them now, they are loving, cheeky beautiful fully grown cats.
Happy 1st Birthday Freddy and Mercury

Celebrating walk your dog month this January 🫶🏼🐾
Walk with me; don’t just walk me. Slow down and see the world as I do. I know you’ve got things to do, places to be. But out here, with the ground beneath our feet and the sky above us, there’s a whole world worth noticing.
To you, it might be just another walk, a daily routine to tick off the list. But for me, every step is an adventure. Each scent is a clue, each sound a piece of a puzzle. When you walk with me, really walk with me, you’ll see it too. The world is bigger than what we’re rushing toward. It’s right here, in the small moments, in the quiet spaces between your thoughts.
So, slow down. Breathe. Let the chill fill your lungs and the colours fill your eyes. Walk with me, don’t just walk me. See the world as I do, if only for a little while.
Happy birthday, Trystan!
We hope you’ve had a wonderful day and can’t wait to hear about your special day in Gambia 🇬🇲
Rafiki isn’t the greatest fan of fireworks…
But we’ve got some ways to help keep your pets, like Rafiki, as comfortable as possible:
- Keep your pets inside and in a room where they can cuddle up and be comfortable. Close the cat flap, get some cosy blankets and shut the blinds to minimise the lights disturbing your pet.
- Carry on as normal: Seeing your beloved pet feel so panicked by something out of your control is horrible. Keeping your routine in the evening as normal can help them realise it’s safe.
- Create safe hiding spots: cats might like to hide under a bed, or if you have cardboard boxes, use them to offer another space to shelter. Use blankets to cover your dogs crate. Adding some familiar-smelling blankets or toys can help them too. More novel food items or toys such as Kongs can also be a great distraction.
- Have enough water and food nearby: If your pet is hiding, move food and water close by so that they don’t feel they have to leave their hiding space before they’re ready to.
- Background music to calm nerves: Classic FM has a great programme specifically for pets on fireworks night. Any calming, instrumental music is good but if you would like the link for this special programme, visit their radio channel.
- Update your pets microchip details: There is a small chance that your pet may get lost. We highly recommend that you update any microchip details so that if they do run off, there is a much better chance of you being reunited.
- Contact us: Some herbal and prescription medications can help your pet if the fireworks get too much. Medications need to be prescribed by our registered vets but some herbal tablets and plug-ins, such as Feliway, can be bought from your local pet store.
If you are concerned or would like some advice, please contact the practice. We are offering our emergency services as normal to our clients. Just contact us on 01483 610 292.
