Did you know that ear infections are the second most popular health problem in dogs?

Just below gum disease, it's likely that your dog may experience this at some point in their life.
It's important to be aware of the warning signs and symptoms. If left untreated, this issue can turn nasty quickly, sometimes requiring surgery or can cause deafness.

Symptoms include:
- Head shaking (especially if given an ear rub)
- The underside of the ear may be red or inflamed, and may feel warm
- Repeatedly scratching or rubbing the ear (sometimes causing bleeding)
- The ear smelling unpleasant
- Your dog may not want to be touched on the head or around the ear
- Waxy (brown, yellow or black) discharge
- Your dog may seem tired or irritable (due to them being uncomfortable)

Call your vet immediately if you notice these signs! Be sure to share to spread awareness 🐕

Does your pet’s fur protect them from the cold? ❄️

In most cases, yes! But in really wet and cold weather, if your pet isn't able to keep active or get themselves somewhere warm, their fur coat may not be enough. Like us humans, our pets, though thankfully rarely, can develop a dangerous and potentially deadly condition called hypothermia.

Any pet can become seriously ill if the temperature of their body drops too low, and acting quickly and doing the right thing could save your pet’s life.

Here are some key symptoms to look out for during the winter months! And if you suspect your pet may have hypothermia, it’s important to call your vet straight away and follow their advice ⚠️

[Visual description: Infographic about hypothermia in pets. Signs and symptoms include; shivering, drowsiness, confusion, clumsiness, pale gums and loss of consciousness/collapse. What you should do; 1. Call your vet straight away and follow their advice. 2. Get your pet out of the cold. Take them somewhere warm (not hot) and sheltered. 3. If your pet is awake, try to get them to drink some lukewarm (not hot) water. 4. If your pet is wet, use towels to dry them by rubbing them over. Change the towels when they become damp. 5. Be careful not to heat your pet up too quickly, this can be dangerous. Use blankets and towels under and over them to keep them warm. Using hot water bottles and heat pads will heat them too quickly and may cause burns.]

Lovable Cutie Bubba 🥰 was my last boy of the day and after his full groom, we just had time for a game of fetch, the only way I got the ball back was by giving him a treat, so he would drop it 🤣I think he knows exactly what he’s doing 🤣🤣🤣
