With the cost of living increasing, you may be starting to feel the impact on your monthly budget and looking for ways to reduce outgoings.

Our animal companions are part of the family and provide immeasurable support during hard times, but looking after their needs also contributes to monthly bills. You may ask yourself if you can afford pet insurance, but when times are tough having the right pet insurance may actually help you manage costs more effectively.

Blue Monday typically falls on the third Monday of January and is often considered the “saddest day of the year”.

Fortunately, we all know that our pets are great at cheering us up, and here’s how they can help raise your spirits this January:-
Studies show that interacting with pets—like stroking their fur or playing— releases oxytocin (the "feel-good" hormone) and lowers cortisol levels (the stress hormone).

Walking a dog or playing with a cat keeps you active, which boosts endorphins and helps combat sadness or depression.

Pets are very intuitive, meaning they can sense when you are feeling down. Their comforting presence alone can be enough to soothe any feelings of stress, anxiety or sadness.

As we move into the colder months of January and February, the chance of snow and ice increases and therefore you may find yourself heading out on a frosty dog walk more often than not!

Check out our top tips below on keeping your dog safe when out and about in snow and ice.

Remember, if the weather is really bad and you don’t think it is safe to head out, then there is no harm in skipping the odd dog walk and playing games indoors with your canine buddy.

Overindulged during the holiday season? As many of us embark on New Year’s resolution diet and fitness regimes, lots of our pets would benefit from accompanying us. It is estimated that up to 65% of dogs and 50% of cats in the UK are obese.

Being overweight leaves pets at greater risk of conditions like diabetes, cancer, heart disease and arthritis and studies have shown that it can dramatically reduce their overall life expectancy.

Salt and grit used for de-icing roads can pose risks to a dog’s paws. It can irritate their paw pads, causing redness, cracking or peeling.

In an attempt to remove the salt, dogs may lick their paws, but this can lead to them ingesting chemicals that can upset their stomachs or cause more severe issues. Grit found on the roads sometimes causes micro-cuts and abrasions on paw pads, increasing the chance of infection.

Prevention and Care:
Use dog boots to shield paws from salt and grit.
Apply a paw wax or balm before walks to create a protective barrier.
Rinse and wipe your dog’s paws with warm water and a soft cloth after walks.
Check paws regularly for cuts or signs of irritation.
Trim fur between paw pads to prevent ice and grit accumulation.
First Aid for Irritated Paws:
Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Apply a soothing paw balm or petroleum jelly.

If irritation persists or there are signs of infection (redness, swelling, limping), please call us to book an appointment.

January marks the beginning of Walk Your Dog Month, designed to encourage dog owners to be more active and ensure their pets get sufficient exercise. It highlights the importance of regular walks for a dog's physical and mental health whilst promoting a healthier lifestyle for pet owners too.

It will not come as a surprise that there are many benefits to regular dog walks:

Physical Health: Prevents obesity and keeps dogs fit.
Mental Stimulation: Outdoor walks provide sensory enrichment through smells, sights, and sounds.
Behaviour Improvement: Exercise can reduce boredom, destructive behaviour and anxiety.
Bonding: Strengthens the relationship between owners and their pets.

Have you enjoyed many winter walks this season? ️ Throughout January we will be sharing many more pet care tips, so do keep an eye on our social media platforms.

He was very cuddly and stole everyone’s hearts! He enjoyed lots of snuggles with our team before having his vaccination done, nails trimmed and his microchip implanted - he was very brave! 🥳
