Yesterday we had Rocky in for investigation after he presented with constant sneezing and bloody nasal discharge just moments after sniffing around exploring in the bushes. Luckily rockys owners brought him straight in where Michelle removed a big grass seed from his nasal passage! We are now in grass seed season which typically occurs during the summer months, particularly from late spring through early autumn. Dogs can easily pick up these seeds while walking in grassy areas, and the seeds can cause irritation and infection if they lodge in the dog's fur, paws, ears, or other body parts.
These can quickly migrate deeper so it is very important to seek veterinary treatment as soon as possible
We are happy to report that Rocky is doing well and back to his normal self just 24 hours later! :)

🔔Calling all cat owners! Did you know that since June 10th 2024, it has been a legal requirement to have your cat microchipped if they are older than 20 weeks.
It has been a legal requirement in dogs since 2016, and now in the UK, since this time last year, it has finally become a legal requirement in cats too! 🐱
If you’ve got any questions about microchipping, bringing nervous cats into the practice or anything else, don’t forget you can ask any questions you may have about your cat by using the VidiVet app 24/7, 365 as a client of Burghley Veterinary Centre.
Here at Burghley Veterinary Centre, we use the thermochips which allows us to read your pets temperature when we scan the chip which obviously avoids any potential stress associated with obtaining a routine temperature.
Please contact the surgery for details about Vidivet registration.

With daffodils, tulips, and lilies springing up around us and Easter just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to make sure you know what you’d do if your pet ate something they shouldn’t.
As a Burghley Veterinary Centre client, you can ask VidiVet a question free of charge at any time, day or night and one of their vets will get back to you in just a few minutes.
If you need to use the app, make sure you tell them:
💬 What they have eaten 🍫
💬 How much they consumed 👀
💬 When they ate it 🕗
💬 How much they weigh ⚖️
That means if your pet has eaten something and you’re unsure if you need to see a vet right away, you’ll get instant peace of mind about what your next steps should be.
Please contact the surgery for Vidivet registration detials.

Here is gorgeous Kiwi who came in for her Librela
injection to help her with her
arthritis. Kiwi is going to be 1 0
years old this summer and very
much enjoys her visit to the
surgery every 4 weeks, as the
Librela helps to control her pain
and allows Kiwi to enjoy life to
the full. Also, her lovely Mum
treats Kiwi to her favourite
snacks whilst she is here. Well
done Kiwi for being a very brave
girl and as lovely as
always ❤️ 🐾 🐕
