Poor Sheba bear isn’t feeling well today. She’s had a dose of prokolin and more on the way.

It really is a medicine cupboard staple!

https://amzn.to/4883U20 This is one of the ones that we use. Means no rush to the vets unless I need to, a dose of probiotic paste and keep an eye for 24 hours or so. Exactly what the vet will give you unless your dog is very poorly. But cheaper than the vet.

Remeber any sickness or diarrhoea for more than 24 hours and you should speak to your vet. Make sure they are drinking enough water.

If in doubt call the vet.

Im sure she will be back to her normal self tomorrow.

Tourniquets

Now this is an emotive subject. The do's and don'ts ...

Using one should be as a last resort, thats goes without saying

Canine tourniquet placement is indicated for severe hemorrhage in an extremity or tail when other methods have failed, such as direct pressure.

Indications include life-threatening hemorrhage from a traumatic amputation or hemorrhage refractory to direct pressure or pressure dressing application.

A tourniquet conversion should be carried out before the 1.5 to 2 hour time limit. We will talk about conversions in the next post about tourniquet use

To say it is too dangerous to ever use one, which a few courses may do, in my opinion is simply unrealistic. A tutor, like a Veterinary Professional will , as I have, experienced life threatening bleeding.

If a dog is bleeding, potentially bleeding where they could lose their life, then place a tourniquet, simple.

HAPPY 9TH BIRTHDAY WALKIES WITH UNA

Wow 9 years. How we have grown and devleoped in the last 9 years. From me on my own slowly starting out to working with dogs on a professional level.

I was very particular about how I wanted this to run and honestly never thought that I would have a team. As I am very fussy and was adamant that we wouldn't be that company who's mission became diluted. The wonderful katie from K9 and Feline Pet Services Ltd helped to guide me lots in those early days. I'll always be so greatful.

In the last 9 years we have found the most amazing team members. A team that im proud to have wearing our logo. A team that im proud to call ours.

Without the incredible team, we would not have grown into a VAT registered company ( boo hoo).

We wouldnt have grown into the size of a company that we are now.

We wouldnt have been able to work with over 600 dogs nor would we have raised £7,647.72 for chairties and good causes.

We wouldnt be able to offer such care to our amazing clients.

The clients that also helped make this happen. Its your sharing of posts. The likes and comments that help us to be seen. The reccomending us. This makes more of a differnce than you realise.

We have some clients that Ive had with us from when I first started. That means so much to me.

So from the bottom of my heart,

THANK YOU X X

P.s. thank you to dan and his sisters for always helping me at the shows. x x
