With lambing season upon us, we kindly ask all dog owners to be vigilant and responsible. Sheep worrying can cause severe stress, injury or even loss of lambs and ewes.

🚫 Please keep your dogs on a lead near livestock

🐾 Even the most well-behaved dogs can become excited or curious, leading to unintended harm

👁 Stay aware of your surroundings and keep dogs under close control

Let’s work together to protect our farmers’ livelihoods and ensure a safe lambing season for all 🐑

Most pets will develop a lump on or under the skin at some point in their life, and some pets may develop several.

It is impossible to know for certain what a lump is just by looking at it. Many different types of tumour can look and feel identical, especially those that sit under the skin.

However, making sure you feel your pet every few months will help you to understand what is normal, so you can spot any lumps and bumps early on.

When checking your pet take things slow, and stop if they seem unduly concerned at any point.

All aboard with Hearing Dogs Gus who went for a little adventure on the train. Gus is in the final stages of his hearing dog training and did a super job keeping his focus on his volunteer trainer when they were out and about. Plus, he was the paw-fect passenger for the trip. 🚄

It's so important that Gus is comfortable using public transport and visiting new places so that when he meets his future deaf partner, Gus can confidently accompany them wherever they might go.

Ask us in practice how you can donate to our charity of the year, Hearing Dogs. ❤️

🐶🐱Every pet is different when it comes to taking flea and worm medication. Some will happily eat a ham wrapped pill only to spit the pill out at the last minute, others will run a mile when the spot on arrives and some pets get very anxious going to the vet for an injection.

🦟 This is why not one treatment style fits all when it comes to parasite treatment.

💊💉 With a choice of tablets, spot on treatments and a long lasting injection your vet will be able to help you decided which is best for your pet.

🐶 Dog ownership can be an incredibly rewarding experience. 🐶

💜 From providing companionship to keeping us fit and active, there are many ways that dogs enrich our lives.

🩷 When considering introducing a dog to your family, it’s important to think about what you can offer a dog in return.

🧡 Taking some time to consider whether you can fully commit and cater to the needs of a dog, and choosing the right one, can help to set you up for a successful and happy relationship.

Hearing dogs alert to number of important and life-saving sounds, but did you know they an also be trained to alert to a baby's cry? This can be a lifeline for deaf parents who need to know when their child is crying, and this adds to the safety and security of a home. Marvellous Milo has been learning how to alert to a baby monitor and we think he is doing a brillant job!
