🐾 Kennel Cough – What You Need to Know 🐶
Did you know kennel cough is actually called Infectious Canine Tracheobronchitis?

This highly contagious respiratory disease can affect dogs of all ages and breeds. Despite the name, your dog doesn’t need to have been in a kennel to catch it! 🏡✖️

Dogs can contract kennel cough anywhere they mix with others – at the park, during walks, training classes, or even just passing by another dog on the street. It spreads through airborne droplets, shared toys, water bowls, or direct contact with infected dogs.

Common signs include:
• A dry, hacking cough
• Gagging or retching
• Sneezing or nasal discharge
• Loss of appetite or energy in some cases

💉 Good news! Protection against kennel cough is included in our Pet Health Plan here at Rutland House Veterinary Hospital and our branches – helping keep your pet safe, healthy, and happy all year round.

📞 If you have any questions or want to sign up to our Pet Health Plan, give us a call on 01744853520 or pop into your local branch

If it’s too hot for your bare feet, it’s too hot for their paws!

Tarmac and pavements can reach scorching temperatures in the sun and may cause serious burns to your dog’s paws.

☀️ Walk during the cooler parts of the day - early morning or late evening
🌳 Stick to shaded routes or grassy areas
🖐️ Use the ‘5-second test’: if it’s too hot to touch, it’s too hot to walk on

Let’s keep our pets safe and cool this summer!

Inquisitive noses and buzzing bees don’t always mix!

If your dog gets stung by a bee or wasp, here’s what to do:

🐝Remove the sting (if visible) by gently scraping it out with a bank card or something similar — don’t use tweezers, as they can squeeze more venom in.
🐝 Soothe the area with a cold compress or clean cloth soaked in cold water.
🐝 Watch for signs of a serious reaction, such as:
– Swelling, especially around the mouth, throat or eyes
– Vomiting or diarrhoea
– Trouble breathing
– Weakness or collapse

📞 If your pet shows any of these signs, or is stung on the face, inside the mouth or throat, call your vet right away - reactions can develop quickly and be serious.
