I’ll see everyone back in September! 🐾❤️
Have a lovely August, I’ll sure miss those furry faces 🐾🥰

Back to work September the 3rd.

Here’s a recap of our week last week trying to beat the heat! Visits/Early Walks! ☺️


01/08/2024

Moving away from heatstroke itself and looking at what else the heat can do.

I’ve seen dogs with mild to moderate heart disease develop heart failure within hours when the air temperature rises. Dogs with kidney disease that was well controlled develop kidney failure, and those with lung/respiratory problems collapse and become blue. These are not dogs necessarily being walked in hot weather but being in a home where the air temperature is hot. So get that fan on and provide multiple cold water drinking bowls! If they are panting whilst in the home, pop cold water on their belly and other hairless areas regularly.

From a vet herself… keep your dogs cool! 🐾

Today I am grateful NOT to be working in clinic. No not to enjoy the sunshine, but to be away from the devastation that heatstroke still causes despite multiple warnings. I am grateful not to be battling to save lives, and witnessing unnecessary deaths of wonderful dogs who would have quite happily missed a walk today.

To all my veterinary colleagues, I just hope you do not have to see too many tragedies today. Sending lots of love and healing as it’s part of our job which should no longer be part of our job and has a huge negative mental impact.

KEEP THOSE DOGS IN THE COOL, AT HOME!

Waggy Weds as always…. 🐾❤️

Plenty of happy faces, some with sticks in their mouths, others with the tongues hanging out 🤪😂 some looking for shade & others getting their tan on!! 😂😍

It’s going to be even hotter earlier on tomorrow, walks will be cut accordingly to ensure everyone gets their walks!! 🍃 as always, extra time will be made up when it’s cooler!! if anyone needs to reschedule due to the heat please let me know! It’s not a problem! 🐾❤️

18/06/2024

Big cheesy smiles from everyone 😆❤️🐾

18/06/2024

Days are warming up! If I feel the need to cut walks a tad shorter I will do in the best interest of the dogs! 🐾 they will still have a good leg stretch but this allows all the dogs to get out before the day gets to hot!! When the days are cooler we will always make up the extra time, if your dog struggles in the heat and you need an earlier slot please let me know 🐾❤️🍃

17/06/2024

Happy Monday 🐾🍃❤️

What a beautiful start to the week, some hot dogs on our walks 🥵 but we all managed well! All the dogs a bit confused with some of my sneezing sounds I think… 🤪 but recall was 100% checking if I was alright 😂❤️

Plenty water at the end of walks! Some like the bowl some like to drink straight from the bottle 😆

16/06/2024

Would any of my lovely WED MID MORNING dogs be able to move to FIRST WALK MORNING? To help a client out. Dont worry if not just thought I’d ask guysss. Message me if anyone can!! 🐾❤️
