Unfortunately, we’ve received some heartbreaking news, and we felt it was only right to share it with our lovely clients 🤍

Last week, we sadly lost our beautiful and bubbly Donna. She was the heart of our team, and we’re sure you’ll all agree that her bright smile and warm presence will be deeply missed.

You touched so many lives, Donna. Now may you rest surrounded by love❤️ Our thoughts are with her family at this difficult time x

We kindly ask for your patience and understanding during this difficult time. We haven’t just lost a colleague—we’ve lost a truly wonderful friend. Things may feel a little unsettled as we all try to navigate this devastating loss.

🐾💚PAIN AWARENESS MONTH💙🐾

🐶 September is pain awareness month, and we are huge advocates for pain awareness and management here at White Cross Coulby.

🐱 It is very important to know the signs of pain in our pets. They can be difficult to pick up on as animals can be very good at hiding pain, especially cats.

🐶 If you feel your pet is in pain, please contact the practice to book a consultation for advice about pain management, what you can do at home to help keep your pet comfortable, and possible long term treatment options.

🐱 Weight management also comes hand in hand with pain management. Keeping your pet’s weight healthy helps to reduce wear and tear, reduce inflammation, slows down arthritis progression, and helps them move comfortably for longer.

🐾 There's a new (and very handsome) vet on the block! 🐾

Meet Dr. Grouse — our lovable Labrador who’s recently stepped up from his practice support role and is now turning his paw to surgery! 🩺✂️

While he may lack opposable thumbs, Dr. Grouse more than makes up for it with his charm, dedication, and sharp canine instincts. He’s got a nose for diagnostics and a tail-wagging bedside manner that’ll melt your heart. 💙

As for payment? Grouse doesn’t understand money (economics was not his strong suit), so he gladly accepts food as currency. Literally anything edible. He is, after all, a Labrador

Keep an eye out for Dr. Grouse on your next visit — he’s always happy to lend a paw, sniff out snacks, or offer a reassuring cuddle.

⚠️ HEATSTROKE ⚠️

🔴A serious condition that occurs when an animal’s body temperature rises to very high levels.

🔴Exercising your dog in warm weather, including gentle walks, and leaving your dog in a hot car are common causes.

🔴Signs of heat stroke include:
* Panting at rest
* Lethargic or reluctant to move
* Drooling
* Dark red or pale gums
* Staggering or uncoordinated movement
* Seizures
* Collapse

🔴Heatstroke is dangerous
A sustained high body temperature causes organ damage - the longer a dog is hot, the higher the risk of serious complications or death.
This is why immediate cooling is essential

🔴How to cool a dog:
✅Use water - any temperature - cool, cold, or very cold
✅Act fast - begin cooling immediately, don’t wait until you reach the vet
✅Pour water over them or use a hose
✅Move them into a shaded area with air flow (fan, breeze, air conditioning)
✅Offer water if they are alert enough to drink
❌Do not wrap them in wet towels- this can trap heat

🔴Prevention is crucial
* Avoid walks in warm weather - even short ones
* Keep pets cool indoors in shaded, well-ventilated spaces
* Never leave them in cars, conservatories, or caravans
* Provide access to water at all times
* Be cautious when travelling - delays and lack of ventilation can be dangerous

Rabbits & Small Furries🐰
❌Do not lock them in hutches with no escape from the heat
✅Provide them with cool frozen bottles, shade, ventilation, escape from the heat and plentiful cool, fresh water

🔴Dogs at higher risk:
* Brachycephalic breeds (Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Pugs)
* Older dogs
* Dogs with underlying health conditions
* High risk breeds = Chow Chow, Bulldog, French Bulldog, Greyhound, Cavalier, Golden Retriever, Springer Spaniel

🔴Fast action can be the difference between life and death
