Do you know how to spot blue-green algae?

Exposure to blue-green algae can cause long-term health problems in pets and can even be fatal. By drinking from or swimming in contaminated water, pets are at a high risk of becoming seriously ill.

Contact your vet immediately if you think your pet is at risk of blue-green algae poisoning. For more information of what to look out for and how to protect your pet, read our advice article here: https://bit.ly/3LqTmA4

Over the summer, our vets see a lot of dogs who have issues because of grass seeds. It is important to contact your vet immediately if you suspect your dog has an injury caused by a grass seed.

If walking your dog in long grass or woodland areas, we recommend checking your dog over and brushing away any grass seeds after the walk is done. Pay particular attention to paws, ears, eyes, and armpits.

To learn more about grass seeds, and our four simple steps for dealing with them, read our helpful advice article here: https://bit.ly/3zAdaOP

Do you have questions about neutering your cat? It's something we strongly advise as it has many benefits for them and helps to tackle the number of stray cats in the UK.

Female cats will benefit from reduced risk of unwanted pregnancy, certain health conditions and even certain types of cancer. For male cats, neutering reduces their urge to fight other males, lessening the chance of certain diseases, and it also means they are less likely to mark their territory around your home.

And our most recent Braveheart Awards go to... ⭐️🎖️

👉 Sydney: This brave girl was diagnosed with lymphoma earlier this year and has been receiving chemotherapy. She comes in once a week for her treatments, which involve an IV cannula. Despite it all, she remains incredibly tolerant and always greets the staff with a friendly smile. Her treatment is going well, and her injections have become less frequent.

👉 Mya: The lovely Mya broke three toes earlier this year after a fall. She needed surgery to insert pins into her paw, followed by a long period of strict rest and pain relief. Mya has handled many post-op visits, bandage changes, and surgical wound cleanings like a champ. She never complained and was a pleasure to treat. Recently, she enjoyed a well-deserved holiday in Portugal with her owners and sister, Mel Rose.

Well done to both Sydney and Mya for being sooo very brave. 💙⁠

Read our tips below on keeping your pet hydrated and how to spot the symptoms of dehydration in your dog, cat or rabbit.

Meet the adorable Elsa! She has leishmaniasis, a disease she contracted abroad before coming to the UK. It's caused by a parasite transmitted through mosquito bites and is common in warmer places like Spain, Italy, and the South of France.

Although it can be serious, we're happy to say that Elsa is doing very well with her treatment. 💙

If you're planning to travel with your dogs, especially during the summer, it’s a good idea to look into protection against leishmaniasis to keep them safe.

Pets can develop skin allergies at any age, so it's important to make sure you know the signs and symptoms. Dogs may start scratching excessively, whereas cats may start licking their belly, back, or behind their legs more than usual.

The most common skin allergy is called atopic dermatitis, and although it's a lifelong condition, it can be controlled and managed, meaning your pet can lead a normal and healthy life. Treatments may include medication, supplements, or even newer monoclonal antibody treatments.

‼️Please remember that microchipping will become compulsory for cats on 10th June 2024! (Including indoor cats!)

The new rules mean that cats must be implanted with a microchip before they reach the age of 20 weeks and their contact details stored and kept up to date in a pet microchipping database!

This is to ensure that if your cat gets lost, stolen or injured, the cats have the best chance of being reunited with their owners.💙

Owners found not to have microchipped their cat, may face a fine of up to £500 😅

PS: We are now offering 25% discount on microchips 🙌

If you have any questions, or wish to book in for a microchipping appointment, please give us a ring!

The law is changing - from 10 June 2024, cats in England must be microchipped and registered on a database by the time they’re 20 weeks old. The penalty for not microchipping your cat could be a £500 fine. A microchipped cat has a much higher chance of being reunited - please microchip your cat. We're offering a 25% discount of microchipping until the end of June. Book an appointment today. https://www.medivetgroup.com/vet-practices/

Update:

The owner has now been found, and the little one has been reunited with them!

Hello everyone!

We have had this one brought into us by a member of the public. She was found running down Fifth Cross with no lead or collar on. She is microchipped but it isn’t registered. If anyone knows who her owner is could you ask them to get in contact with us on 02088926300

Dogs can pick up kennel cough multiple times throughout their lives, but in most cases, they can recover in a few weeks.

During this time, you should encourage your dog to rest and avoid collar and lead activity as it could put more strain on their respiratory system. You should talk to your vet if your dog’s cough persists, or if you notice any changes in behaviour such as a reduced appetite or less energy.

Our article on kennel cough explains more about the infection, what to look out for, and how to treat it. Read more here: https://bit.ly/44CKnV0
