Preventing ticks is always better than treating a tick-related illness. Thankfully, there are lots of effective tick prevention options available, including spot-on treatments, sprays, and long-lasting collars. These can be used alongside or sometimes instead of your pet’s usual parasite control, depending on the product.

Some treatments repel ticks, while others kill them after they attach. Either way, reducing the time ticks spend on your pet lowers the risk of disease. Even with protection, it’s still a good idea to check your pet for ticks after walks, especially in areas where ticks are more common. If you find one, it’s best to remove it promptly.

Not sure which product is right for your pet? Our vets and nurses are always happy to help you choose the most suitable option. Tick prevention is fully covered as part of The Healthy Pet Club membership.

It’s grass seed season! These barbed seeds easily attach to fur and can burrow into the skin, causing pain and infection.

Watch for These Signs:
Ears: Head shaking, scratching, and discomfort may indicate a seed lodged in the ear. These don’t work their way out and may need removal under sedation or anaesthetic.

Eyes: Redness, weeping, pawing, or squinting can signal a seed under the eyelid. Prompt vet attention is needed to prevent damage.

Feet: Lameness, licking, swelling, or oozing between toes could mean a seed has pierced the skin. These can travel up the leg and may cause infections.

Prevention Tips:
Avoid areas with long grass during summer. Trim coats, especially around feet, ears, and between toes – particularly important for breeds like spaniels. After walks, check your dog thoroughly and remove any visible seeds.
