Let’s all be honest right now… 😆🐶
Share a pic of your furry friend and let us know how they're doing today! 🐕📸
*Don’t worry non-dog people… your time to shine will come 👀
#BlindDogDay serves two purposes 🔽
1️⃣ A day to celebrate all blind dogs in the world and ways we can support them – as all dogs are good dogs.
2️⃣ Highlight that whether partially or fully blind, they can lead a fulfilling life with a great quality of life!
Owners support blind dogs by creating a safe space, not rearranging home furniture, and training methods such as using audio cues to help make navigation easier and giving them sound-based toys to make play easier for them.
This is only a slice of ways we can support blind dogs.
And the beautiful Loki is demonstrating both purposes perfectly 💖 Thank you to Tower Vets, Knaresborough for the video!
🦷 #DidYouKnow that regular dental check-ups are as crucial for your pet's overall health as they are for yours?
Just like us, pets can develop dental issues like plaque buildup, tartar accumulation, and gum disease. By scheduling regular dental check-ups, you're taking proactive steps to ensure your furry friend's mouth stays healthy and pain-free. During these check-ups, our veterinary team can assess your pet's teeth and gums, identify any signs of dental problems, and recommend appropriate treatments or preventive measures. Remember, a healthy mouth equals a happier pet!
Don't wait until there's a problem – book your pet's dental check-up today! 🐾🦷

☀️ Summer days are here, and it's important to keep our furry friends hydrated!
Whether it's a trip to the park or a garden play session, make sure your pup has access to plenty of fresh water to beat the heat.
Remember, a hydrated dog is a happy dog! 🐶
When it comes to sprinting, our dogs have their own ‘zoomies’ technique that would leave any athlete in awe 🐕💨
Does your dog have what it takes to win the gold in the zoomies event? Show us their fastest sprints! 🏅

👩⚕️🩺👨⚕️🐾 Its Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month 👩⚕️🩺👨⚕️🐾
Our Registered Veterinary Nurses (RVNs), Student Veterinary Nurses (SVNs), and Veterinary Care Assistants (VCAs) play a vital part in keeping our practice running smoothly day in day out. They are the glue to our practices! All our nurses face challenging and unique situations every day. They carry out a number of different roles within the practice that sometimes can’t be seen from the outside.
Keep a look out on our social media platforms for some behind the scrubs action from our nursing team!
Follow us to celebration the amazing work our veterinary nurses do all year round. 🐾

Socialisation
🐾 True or False? 🐾
🐶 "Your dog needs to play with dogs when they are young to prevent them from being reactive." 🚫
🌟 Fact Check: While letting your puppy interact with other dogs is crucial, it's not just about quantity, but QUALITY! Socialisation goes beyond playdates – it's about introducing them to a wide variety of safe dogs and to new experiences like novel objects, sounds, smells, and surfaces.
👉 So why not just endless play with furry friends? Socialisation is a well-rounded approach and many older dogs will not want to play with them. Controlled and positive interactions with dogs, humans, and diverse environments are key.
Remember, it's about setting the stage and putting in the time for a well-adjusted, friendly companion. 🐕💙
📍 Pro Tip: When seeking socialisation opportunities, look for trainers and vets promoting controlled and positive based learning in their classes. Your pup will learn how to focus and thrive in various situations.

Rate Riley 🐶
Here we have staff dog Riley’s attempt at biscuit catching! Now he didn’t fair too well and caught a disappointing 0 out of 3 treats.
We give him a strong 8 out of 10 for effort
However overall we give him a 3 out of 10 as no catches were successful! Better luck next time Riley.
Comment below your own rating of Riley and stay tuned for other pets trying their luck at catching 🦴
