We are moving to a new computer system on Tuesday. Please bare with us while we get the hang of things. In the long run we hope it will make things run more smoothly but for the first couple of weeks while we get used to it we may be a little slower than usual. Please bare with us and rest assured, as always, you and your furred and feathered family members come first ❤️❤️

Meet Karen, one of Hearing Dogs’ amazing volunteer dog trainers.
We asked Karen about why she volunteers: “My lovely mum has been deaf since childhood and has had multiple operations on her ears over the years and now has a BAHA hearing aid. When she removes this
at night, she hears nothing.”
“She doesn't have a hearing dog herself but it's because of her I got involved with this amazing charity
and became a volunteer. I've witnessed her struggles and the lack of understanding from people about
her deafness and I wanted to do something to help improve a deaf person's life.”
Karen has been volunteering for ten years and it’s been Poodles all the way. Before current trainee
Merlin, there were Jessie, Peach, Sonny, and Ziggy. Ahead of Merlin's final assessment, Karen has said:
“I absolutely adore him and will miss Merlin so much as he makes me laugh everyday. But I feel so
excited that someone out there is going to be told about him very soon. Whoever gets him will have an
extremely loyal friend who will look after and adore them.”

Hearing dog Albert has been on an adventure with his deaf partner Sarah, as they visited York city centre.
Albert took in all the sights, including the spectacular York Minster, and did so well in a busy environment with lots of people.
Not only that, but Albert also travelled on two forms of public transport and proved to be the perfect passenger on both a train and a river cruise.
Amazing job as always, Albert!

While it's a frequent issue, bad breath in pets should not be considered normal. Often, it's a sign of underlying health problems that need attention. If you're used to your pet cuddling close to your face, you'll likely notice quickly if their breath becomes unpleasant!

Many conditions we see that present as an acute problem are actually a sign of something underlying. The most common example is an ear infection due to underlying allergic skin disease. Although we can treat the ear infection, if we don’t address the skin disease the ear will continue developing infections and, eventually, develop chronic problems. The active infection is the priority and diagnosing and managing this should be the focus of the initial consultation, however at the follow-up appointment the vet will have more time to discuss other signs of skin disease and suggest further investigations or long-term management options to help control this and reduce the likelihood of recurrent infections. This is the case for many other problems that are likely to recur or persist, such as urinary tract disease (particularly in cats), lameness, diarrhoea, or pancreatitis, to name a few.

Having your teeth brushed is a strange experience, and many pets will panic if it is not introduced slowly and gently. It may take a month or two to reach a point of “proper brushing” – this is normal and nothing to worry about.

Salt and grit used for de-icing roads can pose risks to a dog’s paws. It can irritate their paw pads, causing redness, cracking or peeling.
In an attempt to remove the salt, dogs may lick their paws, but this can lead to them ingesting chemicals that can upset their stomachs or cause more severe issues. Grit found on the roads sometimes causes micro-cuts and abrasions on paw pads, increasing the chance of infection.
Prevention and Care:
Use dog boots to shield paws from salt and grit.
Apply a paw wax or balm before walks to create a protective barrier.
Rinse and wipe your dog’s paws with warm water and a soft cloth after walks.
Check paws regularly for cuts or signs of irritation.
Trim fur between paw pads to prevent ice and grit accumulation.
First Aid for Irritated Paws:
Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Apply a soothing paw balm or petroleum jelly.
If irritation persists or there are signs of infection (redness, swelling, limping), please callus to book an appointment.

The pet insurance market can be very overwhelming but it can be made easier by deciding the type of policy that would suit you best to narrow your search.
Depending on the age of your pet and level of cover you would like to protect them with, you can then start considering the different polices for that type of insurance.
Remember not all pet insurance is the same so it is a good idea to check the cover provided and ask if you will be paying more for claiming.

Blue Monday typically falls on the third Monday of January and is often considered the “saddest day of the year”.
Fortunately, we all know that our pets are great at cheering us up, and here’s how they can help raise your spirits this January:-
Studies show that interacting with pets—like stroking their fur or playing—releases oxytocin (the "feel-good" hormone) and lowers cortisol levels (the stress hormone).
Walking a dog or playing with a cat keeps you active, which boosts
endorphins and helps combat sadness or depression.
Pets are very intuitive, meaning they can sense when you are feeling down.
Their comforting presence alone can be enough to soothe any feelings of
stress, anxiety or sadness.

As we move into the colder months of January and February, the chance of snow and ice increases and therefore you may find yourself heading out on a frosty dog walk more often than not!
Check out our top tips below on keeping your dog safe
when out and about in snow and ice.
Remember, if the weather is really bad and you don’t think it is safe to head out, then there is no harm in skipping the odd dog walk and playing games indoors with your canine buddy.

Please drop off any unused medications to us at the practice. You can hand them in to a vet, nurse or the reception team. This medication might be left-over from a recent prescription, antibiotics that you didn’t need or out-ofdate medication. Let’s keep antibiotics working, together! #AntibioticAmnesty #onehealth
