🎆New Year's Eve & Fireworks - tips🎆

As we head into New Year's Eve, fireworks can be frightening for many pets. Here are a few simple ways to keep them calm:
✨Keep pets indoors and close windows and curtains
✨Create a quiet, safe space to hide if needed
✨Play soft music or the TV to help mask the noise
✨Stick to normal routines where possible
✨Make sure pets are microchipped
✨Never punish fearful behaviour - reassurance and calm support helps most

If your pet struggles with fireworks anxiety, speak to our team. There are management options and treatments that can help.

Wishing all our clients and their pets a safe and calm New Year's Eve🩵

Ted's Tummy Issues 🙁

Ted, a lovely working gun dog, recently came in for investigations after ongoing vomiting. Using our endoscope, we were able to take biopsies from his stomach in a minimally invasive way, without the need for surgery🩺

The results confirmed inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or food-related allergies, allowing us to put a management plan in place tailored specifically for Ted!

We are pleased to say Ted is now back at home recovering well, the best boy!💗
