Cold weather can make it harder to spot what’s really going on under the fur.

A winter wellness screen gives us a clearer picture — helping to catch early signs of things like arthritis or kidney disease, so your pet can keep on bouncing through their day.

🩺 Book their winter screen today — it’s care that keeps the wiggles going. 🐾

📞 Call the practice to book your pet’s wellness screening.

*For healthy dogs aged over five and cats aged over seven. If your pet is unwell, please book a vet consultation. Visit our website for full details.

❄️ Is your pet winter-ready? ⛄

Colder days can be tough on joints, weight, and all-round wellbeing — even if your pet looks like they’re doing just fine.

A winter wellness screen* helps us look a little deeper. No guesswork. No waiting for signs. Just peace of mind — so they can keep zooming, tail-wagging, and just being their happy little selves.

📞 Call us to book their winter screen and help keep them feeling good.

Autumn adventures mean walks, doggy playdates, and sometimes even boarding for holidays 🍁🐕

You might not know these are the moments when your dog is most at-risk of catching contagious cough (also known as kennel cough).

Contagious cough spreads easily — but it’s easily prevented with a simple vaccine.

✅ Protect your dog’s health and keep tails wagging this season.

📅 Book your contagious cough vaccination today.

⚠️ Diarrhoea
⚠️ Weakness
⚠️ Jaundice

Up-to-date vaccinations are the best way to keep your pets safe.

❌Myth: Pets only need vaccines when they’re young.
✔️ Fact: Regular boosters are essential throughout their lives to maintain protection.

Just like us humans, pets require regular vaccinations to stay safe from harmful diseases.

Here’s a handy reminder of the vaccination schedules for cats, dogs, and rabbits.

📞If your pet needs vaccinations or a booster, book on our website or call the clinic today.

📢Canine and Feline Parvovirus (AKA Infectious Enteritis in cats) is widespread, life-threatening, and highly contagious. With recent outbreaks across the UK, could your pet be at risk?

Parvovirus spreads easily and can survive in the environment for over a year. Even indoor pets are at risk from contaminated items coming into the home.

Keep your pet safe this autumn and watch out for symptoms:

⚠️ Loss of appetite
⚠️ Lethargy
⚠️ Fever
⚠️ Vomiting
⚠️ Diarrhoea

Up-to-date vaccinations keep your pets safe.

📞If your pet needs to be vaccinated or you want to check if your pet’s vaccinations are up to date, call the clinic today.

This little guy still hasn't been claimed. He is very friendly, someone must be missing him 😞
