Did you know that dental care is a crucial part of your dog’s overall health? Just like us, dogs need healthy teeth and gums to stay happy and active! 🐶💕

Why is it so important?

🦷 Regular dental care helps prevent painful dental issues and keeps your dog’s teeth happy and healthy.

💚 Poor dental hygiene can lead to other serious health problems, like heart and kidney disease. Keeping your pup’s teeth healthy means a healthier pup!

👃 Dental care doesn’t just keep teeth clean - it also helps freshen up your dog’s breath. No more stinky kisses! 😘

Here’s how you can help:

Brush those teeth! 🪥 Make brushing fun and part of your daily routine.
Chew toys to the rescue! 🦴 Help your dog clean their teeth while they play.

Dental treats: Your dog will love these tasty treats while keeping their mouth healthy! Just be sure not to overfeed, as too many treats can lead to obesity.

Check-ups: Keep an eye on their oral health with regular visits to our practice.

Did You Know? Walking your dog can boost their mental health!

Taking your dog for regular walks isn't just about exercise – it's a fantastic way to improve their mental well-being, too!

Here's how a walk can help them...

🌟 Reduces anxiety and stress: Walks help release mood-boosting endorphins, calming anxious dogs and easing stress.

🌟 Stimulates their mind: New sights, sounds, and smells keep your dog's brain engaged, preventing boredom and frustration.

🌟 Provides structure and routine: Regular walks create a sense of security and predictability for your dog.

🌟 Builds confidence: Exploring new environments and meeting new people or dogs helps your dog feel more secure and confident.

🌟 Enhances social skills: Walks are great for meeting other dogs and people, helping your dog become more socially comfortable.

🌟 Prevents behavioural issues: A mentally and physically active dog is less likely to develop undesirable behaviours like chewing or digging.

Walks are more than just a physical activity – they're a boost to your dog's happiness and mental health! Get outside and explore together this Walk Your Dog Month. 🐶💚

🎉🎄 Did you know? Christmas crackers can be dangerous for your pets! 🐾

While the bang of a cracker may be fun for us, most pets find it terrifying. But that’s not the only danger! After the pop, small prizes and debris can end up all over the floor—tempting curious dogs to pick them up and swallow them. 🤔

These tiny treasures may look harmless, but they can be a serious choking hazard or cause dangerous internal blockages. 🚫

🎁 Top tip: If you're cracking open those festive goodies, try to keep them out of reach from your pet and do a quick tidy-up afterwards to prevent any accidents.

🎄🐾 Thinking of sharing your leftovers with your pet? Think again!

The holiday season is all about sharing, but when it comes to food, remember: some treats can be harmful (or even life-threatening) for your pet!

While it’s tempting to give your canine companion or feline friend a taste of your delicious leftovers, certain foods can cause serious health issues.

Here’s what to avoid:
🚫 Toxic foods: Grapes, raisins, sultanas, currants, chocolate, alcohol, and onions can be dangerous (or deadly) to pets. If your pet eats any of these, contact us immediately!

🚫 Fatty foods: Sausages, crisps, and fatty leftovers (like potatoes cooked in duck or goose fat) can cause upset stomachs and digestive problems.

Instead, it's best to stick to your pet’s regular diet. Consider giving them a vet-approved treat to include them in the festive fun—without the risks! 🐾

🎄🐾 Hosting this Christmas?

The holiday season is full of joy, but it can also be a stressful time for your pets. With all the guests, decorations, and changes in routine, your pets may start to feel overwhelmed. 🐶😿

Here are some tips to help keep your pet calm and comfortable while you host:

🛏️ Create a quiet space: Set up a peaceful area away from the hustle and bustle where your pet can retreat to if they feel stressed.

🍽️🚶‍♂️Maintain routines: Try to keep feeding and walking schedules consistent to help your pet feel more secure.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Introduce guests slowly: Some pets can be wary of strangers. If possible, let them meet guests gradually and always supervise interactions.

😰 Watch for signs of stress: Look out for panting, pacing, or hiding. If your pet is showing signs of anxiety, give them a break from the chaos.

🕯️ Who doesn't love the warm glow of a scented Christmas candle? Not only do candles bring a cosy vibe to any room, but they also help set the festive mood. However, candles can be hazardous if you have a curious cat or a fearless dog at home.

To avoid the risk of accidents, injuries, burns and choking, keep candles at a safe distance from your pets and ensure that lit candles are supervised at all times.

Let’s enjoy the glow - safely! 🎅

🎄🐾 Did you know? The biggest cause of a Christmas trip to the vet for dogs is chocolate! 🍫

With so many festive treats on the tree and under it, pets can’t resist sniffing them out. From Advent calendars to shiny chocolate coins, there’s no shortage of temptation.

But remember, chocolate is poisonous to dogs and cats due to the stimulant theobromine, which is toxic, especially in dark chocolate.

Symptoms of chocolate poisoning can include:
🤢 Vomiting and diarrhoea
😳 Muscle tremors
⚡ Seizures
💓 Irregular heartbeat

If you suspect your dog has eaten chocolate and is showing any of these symptoms, contact us immediately.

🎄🐾 Dog Christmas Jumpers: Trendy, but are they safe?

Christmas jumpers for dogs have become increasingly popular, especially with the influence of social media. While these festive outfits may look charming, it’s important to consider your pet’s safety and comfort.

Although they can be adorable, we do not recommend dressing dogs in jumpers or accessories for the following reasons:

❌ Flammable fabrics
❌ Restrictive and noisy materials
❌ Risk of overheating, particularly for dogs with thick fur
❌ Potential choking hazards, such as antlers, bells, or decorations

For dogs who are not accustomed to wearing clothes, these garments can cause discomfort, stress, and even health risks.

Warning signs that your dog may be uncomfortable in a Christmas jumper include:
💨 Panting
🚶‍♂️ Reluctance to move
🏃‍♂️ Pacing

If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to remove the clothing immediately and allow your dog to cool down.

🎄🌸 Festive plants like mistletoe, holly, poinsettias, and more. While they add cheer to your decor, many of these plants are toxic to pets, so it's important to keep them out of reach of your pets. 🐱🐶

Here's what you need to know:

Mistletoe: This holiday classic contains compounds that can cause nausea, vomiting, and even a drop in heart rate. The berries are particularly dangerous if ingested.

Ivy: Though beautiful, ivy can cause gastrointestinal upset, including drooling, stomach pain, and vomiting if eaten by pets.

Poinsettias: While not as toxic as some other plants, poinsettias can still cause mild symptoms like irritation to the mouth and stomach upset if chewed or swallowed.

Lilies: Extremely dangerous for cats! All parts of the lily plant—flowers, leaves, and even the pollen - can cause severe kidney failure in cats, even with a small amount of ingestion.

🎁 Here's how you can keep your pet safe...

✅ Place plants in high, out-of-reach areas: Ensure that they are well above where your pets can reach.

✅ Be cautious with decorations: Mistletoe and holly are often hung in doorways, but be mindful of pets who may be able to reach them.

✅ Watch for symptoms: If you think your pet may have ingested any part of a harmful plant, symptoms can include drooling, vomiting, loss of appetite, or changes in behaviour.

If you think your pet may have ingested parts of any plant that could harm them, please get in touch with us immediately.

🎄 The holiday season is a time of joy, filled with festive decorations... and, of course, our beloved, curious pets! 😅

From wagging tails knocking baubles off the tree to playful paws trying to bat at shiny ornaments, our pets are always up to some mischief when the tree goes up!

While it’s cute to see them so fascinated, Christmas trees and decorations can pose some risks. Here are a few tips to keep your tree and your pet safe:

🎅 If your dog or cat is prone to investigating the tree, make sure delicate ornaments are placed out of reach. Low-hanging baubles can become chew toys or get knocked down and broken.

🐕 Choose Pet-Friendly Decorations – Opt for unbreakable, soft ornaments instead of sharp or easily breakable ones to ensure your pet’s safety, especially if they get curious or attempt to play with them! Consider using durable fabric or plastic baubles, which are both safe and sturdy. However, we recommend discouraging your pet from playing with them, as they could pose a risk if ingested.

🎄 Secure the tree - pets love to climb, and the tree might look like a jungle gym to some! Make sure your tree is well-secured to avoid it toppling over if your pet decides to get too close or nudge it. A sturdy tree stand is key!

So, who will win: your pet or the baubles? With a little extra planning and these safety tips in mind, it doesn’t have to be a battle! You can enjoy the holiday season with confidence, knowing that your pet is safe and happy. ✨

Happy World Chocolate Day! 🍫 Although World Chocolate Day is a joyous occasion for chocolate enthusiasts, it's essential to be mindful that chocolate can be highly dangerous to pets, especially dogs and cats. 🐶😺 Chocolate contains theobromine and caffeine, both of which are harmful to animals. The darker the chocolate, the more harmful it can be. Even small quantities can lead to serious health problems such as vomiting, diarrhoea, rapid breathing, elevated heart rate, and, in severe instances, seizures or, worse, death. By taking a few simple precautions, we can ensure a safe and enjoyable World Chocolate Day for all, including our pets. Here are some pet-friendly tips to consider: 🍫Keep chocolate out of reach: Store your tempting chocolates in secure containers or cabinets to prevent dogs from reaching them. 🍫 Educate friends and family: Inform your loved ones about the dangers of chocolate for dogs and ask them to keep chocolate products away from your dog. 🍫 Avoid sharing: Refrain from sharing chocolate with your pet, as even a small amount can be detrimental. 🍫 Stay alert: Be observant of signs of chocolate ingestion in your dog, such as restlessness, increased heart rate, vomiting, or diarrhoea. If you suspect your pet has consumed chocolate, contact your vet without delay. If you suspect your pet has ingested chocolate and is experiencing vomiting or any of these symptoms, please get in touch with us immediately. #WorldChocolateDay #PetHazards
