🐾 The gorgeous Mirabelle was in for her spay and came back for her 3-day post-op check 😍 This sweet little Bengal is doing great, and we couldn’t resist sharing how adorable she looks in her pet suit! 🐱💖 The suit helps keep her from licking her wound, and we think she rocked it! 🥰

🐾 Guess who’s back? It’s Bruce Wayne, our very own 4-month-old bulldog
🦇

Bruce swings by Argle Street every month for a weigh-in and wormer treatment 🪱, and we’ve all fallen head over heels for this charming little guy 😍 His handsome appearance and unique colouring are truly captivating 🤩

With his happy demeanour and that adorable wiggly bum, he brightens up our day every time he visits 🩵But here's the real question: could this adorable pup be Batman? 🦇

🐾 It's that time of year again—kids are heading back to school! While we're busy getting them ready for a new academic year, let's not forget about our furry friends at home Pets can feel lonely or anxious with the sudden change in routine ✏️

Here are some tips to help your Pets adjust :

Fergus has been with us since he was a pup and through the years we have all gotten to know him very well 🩵🐾

At the start of this year however he had a RUFF time when his skin had a major flare up. West Highland Terriers can be prone to skin conditions but seeing Fergus in this state we all came together to help support his owner. His irritation caused him to go off his food and his weight began to drop 🩺

Our wonderful nurses made it their mission to get him bathed three times a week ⭐
Fergus quickly became a regular with ourselves and even had his own kennel through the back 🛁 With the right medication and continuous baths with medical shampoo Fergus is doing amazing ⭐

With perseverance and hard work from people at home and in the practice Fergus is looking better than ever 😍 Even gaining weight and whilst we loved seeing him on a regular basis it was a good sign that we were going to see him less.

We still get to see Fergus every two to three weeks for a bath and check over but we are so happy with his progress ⭐🐾🩷

🩸🚨 Warning: Graphic Image of Blood and Open Wound 🚨🩸

Reggie had a rough start to July when he was out for a walk and endured a stick injury to his leg. The stick caused his skin to rip open, and emergency treatment was provided 🩹 Please be cautious if you choose to view the attached image ⚠️

The good news is that Reggie is now doing much better after his procedure and his leg is healing nicely! 💪🐾

He continues to be a happy boy even trotting into our Argyle street practice for his post op check ⭐

🔥🐾 Pet Fire Awareness Day: Keep Your Pets Safe! 🐾🔥

July 15th is Pet Fire Awareness Day, and we want to share some essential fire safety tips to protect your furry friends.

UK Fire and Rescue services respond to nearly 35,000 house fire calls yearly 🚒 With around half of UK households owning a pet, this potentially means many pets are caught up in fires 🧯

Our four legged companions can cause accidental hazards so be vigilant when they are around any sort of open flames 🔥🐾

Two of our student nurses are set to run the Baxter Marathon in September. Both are on their journey to becoming Registered Veterinary Nurses, and we are incredibly proud of them for embracing this mental and physical challenge 💖

Having participated in the half marathon in March, they decided it was time to take the next step 🏃‍♀️ Working with animals every day, they witness first hand the impact the SSPCA has on helping animals in need ❤️‍🩹

⭐If you'd like to support their cause, please consider donating through their JustGiving page https://scottishspca.enthuse.com/pf/katie-kyle-zoe-scobbie? ⭐

Additionally, we have a donation box at our Argyle Street reception for cash contributions. Any amount is greatly appreciated 💖🐾

GOOD LUCK ZOE AND KATIE! 🏃🐾

As the weather warms up, many pet owners are enjoying longer walks with their furry friends ☀️ More outdoor time means more chances for pets to pick up ticks.

Here in the Highlands, we've seen ticks appearing much earlier in the year. Pet owners need to stay alert and check their pets for ticks after every walk 🐶

🐾 Found a tick on your pet? Remove it ASAP to reduce the risk of tick-borne diseases! 🕷️

🔴 DO NOT squeeze, crush, or pull it off!
✅ Use a tick hook (cheap & easy to find)
❌ Avoid tweezers – they can leave the head behind, causing infection.

1️⃣ Slide the tick hook under the tick
2️⃣ Twist & pull – the whole tick should come off
3️⃣ Wear gloves to stay safe
4️⃣ Dispose of the tick by crushing it in tissue and flushing it down the toilet

Keep your fur babies safe! 🐶🐱
