Patch wants everyone to know that there are a couple more tickets left for next week's Saddleworth Pet Networking Night!

EVERYONE is welcome- pet owners, pet lovers and pet care professionals.

It will be a lovely evening of chatting, meeting like minded people and a bit of learning.

Some freebies available too!

We'll let you know the topics of Katja and Rachel's talks soon.

Meanwhile- get those last few tickets while you can. When they're gone, they're gone.

See you there?

Today is World Cancer Day

Tragically, most of you know or have known, loved and supported a pet with cancer.

It’s estimated that around 1 in 4 dogs and 1 in 5 cats will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime (BSAVA 2023).

How many⁉️

Those are shocking numbers!

We do have more and more treatments. Surgery can cure many cancers.
Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy can be amazing options, and aren’t always as harsh as one might think.

But far too often, conventional medicine has nothing much to offer.

And people feel helpless and alone.

We see so many of you, who are in that position, wishing there was something you could do to support your beloved pet, yet having no guidance and feeling completely overwhelmed.

Let me tell you this:

🌻There is so much you can do NOW, before they even develop cancer, to increase their chances of a healthy life.

🌻And there is so much you can do to support your pet if you have had that devastating diagnosis.

We‘re here to help!

🐾Hands up who’s been in this situation? 🙋‍♀️

You find a lump on your dog, and you get really worried.

Your groomer looks at it and doesn’t feel good about it either.

You’re a sensible person, so you get your vet to check it out.

(Luckily your vet comes to you and you don’t have the stress of having to get there and wait for
your turn, so that already feels a bit better😊).

😅And it turns out, it’s nothing!

Phew!!

❤️The relief!

🐾Milo has just given everyone a scare like that with some fur that was stuck together and looked suspiciously like a growth.

Honestly, things like that happen all the time.

Over the years we have seen things that looked like a growth but were in fact:

- matted fur
- a tick
- a boiled sweet!

Take home message here:

😊Don’t worry if it happens to you- it happens to everyone!

and

👩‍⚕️If you’re worried about a lump, get it checked out- it may be something super simple and straightforward, and you may be worrying for absolutely nothing!

📣We’ve been saying this for years!📣

✅Treat for fleas when you need to.

❌Don’t treat when you don’t!

There really is no need for most pets to use flea treatments year round.

It’s a massive overkill, a waste of your money and can cause a number of side effects for your pets’ health too.

However, nothing is ever that clear cut:

The two chemicals that have been found to cause this terrible environmental havoc, imidacloprid and fipronil, are freely available over the counter.

People buy and used them all the time, without going through vets.

In fact, vets have not been using fipronil much for years now, because it often doesn’t work.

It used to be great- but fleas are now mostly resistant to it.

Fipronil is the active ingredient in Frontline.

I’m not a fan.

I can’t tell you how many flea I have seen crawling about quite happily after a dose of it.

👍So: if you need a flea treatment, use one that actually works.

👍And in the meantime, hoover often, wash their bedding, and check regularly for fleas- so that you find them early on, when they’re easier to get rid of.

🐾Here’s the lovely Bobby! 🐾

He’s a rescue dog and can get really anxious.

His visits to the vet clinic used to be extremely stressful for all.

You see, it’s not just the pets (although that would be bad enough), it’s their people too.

The stress for you, the anticipation of your pet’s fear, the guilt.

So much better when vet visits can be done at home, in a relaxed way, and in a way that’s personalised and works for you and your pet.

Because everyone is different- there is no one size fits all.

Bobby has regular home visits now, and that works so much better for everyone!

See you soon, Bobby! 🐾

🐾Some of our lovely laser patients!🐾

Laser therapy is so wonderful for all kinds of inflammatory processes.

We mainly use it for arthritic dogs, who need some extra help, and we have also used it in cats, and for other conditions such as chronic inflammatory lung disease, cystitis, poorly healing wounds and a tricky ear infection.

Pretty much any condition that ends in -itis can benefit from laser therapy.

It’s not painful and has no known side effects- and many pets find it really relaxing ❤️

📞Get in touch if you’d like to find out if laser therapy could help your pet!

🐾Monty really hates to be messed with!

Lucky for him, we are very much used to dogs like him, and we always do our best to make them feel as safe as possible.

Dogs who are perfectly friendly from a distance, but who feel cornered and anxious when someone comes near.

Monty’s exam is always as hands off as possible.

We get a lot of information while we observe from a little distance.

This time it was time for Monty’s booster, and while he didn’t exactly like the injection, he settled down again straight after as if nothing had happened.

Today was a tough day.

We had to say good bye to two longstanding, much loved patients 🌈

It never gets easy.

The rational mind knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that it’s the right thing to do, and that it’s one last act of kindness.

The professional makes the transition stress free and peaceful.

And yet the heart is heavy.

Rest easy, you two 🤍🐾

🌿’I thought you were going to tell me there’s nothing that can be done!’🌿

This is what a client said to me today- and she was so very pleased that I had a number of treatment options for her lovely cat.

We hear that so often!

And it’s simultaneously heartbreaking and the best feeling in the world when we can give these people and their pets more treatment options and HOPE!

Here’s the thing:

There’s always more that can be done.

It ain’t over til it’s over!

It makes me so sad to speak with people who felt hopeless and out of options before they had a consultation with us

and I can’t count how many pets have had a new lease of life once we’ve started to treat them.

Sometimes conventional, sometimes holistic.

If you’re ready to continue to support your pet, don’t give up!

Chances are, there IS more that can be done.

🐾Here’s the fabulous Peggy!

She’s an elderly lady with various health problems- but she’s absolutely not ready to give up just yet.

We’ve given her a good check over and reviewed and adjusted her medication and supplements.

Can’t wait to see how Peggy is going to thrive in her old age ❤️

🌿I LOVE to get into the assortment of supplements that so many pets are on and sort through what does and doesn’t make sense.

If you think your pet could do with a supplement clear out- let me know, I’m your woman!
