We're urging people to please not feed the deer in and around Cannock Chase. 🦌🌲

Regular reports are being received of people feeding deer from their cars and also in nearby housing estates and it’s causing serious problems.

Deer are unforunately getting stuck in fences and football nets, and are also losing their natural fear of cars. The risk being when they start associating cars with food, they’re more likely to run into roads, leading to collisions.

Last year alone, rangers were called to over 164 deer collisions on Cannock Chase.

Feeding deer also makes them dependent on humans and vulnerable to poachers. Their stomachs aren’t designed for human food, which can make them seriously ill.

With spring here, you might spot baby deer (fawns). If you do, don’t touch or move them. Their mothers will return, but only if they don’t smell human scent on their young.

Help us protect these beautiful animals. Don't feed or approach the deer and keep your dogs away.

When driving, if you hit a deer or see one injured on the road, call 999. To report a dead deer on the roadside, call 101 so a deer warden can be sent out.

For more information take a look at the British Deer Society website: https://orlo.uk/XXpxi

💧🐾What is Canine Hydrotherapy? 🐾💧

The term Hydrotherapy is derived from the Greek words hydro (meaning water) and therapeia (meaning healing) and refers to the therapeutic use of water ro aid recovery, improve fitness and support overall well-being. It has been in human practice for centuries and has more recently been utilised for our four-legged friends.

When we talk about Canine Hydrotherapy, we meaning controlled and structured swimming sessions designed to help dogs recover from injury, manage chronic conditions and maintain peak physical health and fitness.

Swimming takes advantage of the unique properties of water to achieve this;

🌊Buoyancy- water supports a dogs body weight, allowing a non-weightbaring form of exercise, reducing the load on joints and allowing an optimum range of motion to be achieved, making it ideal for those recovering from injury or surgery or dogs with long term chronic conditions.

🌊Viscosity- water is denser than air, this means every movement meets a natural resistance. This helps strengthen muscles while being gentle on joints than land based exercise.

🌊Hydrostatic Pressure- The pressure exerted by water improves circulation , reducing swelling and i.prove lymphatic drainage. It also provides a sensory feedback, which can be helpful for neurological dogs.

🌊Surface Tension- the resistance of the waters surface makes entry and exit of the water more work than an object kept under the water. This can help build strength in weaker dogs. It is mainly utilised in an underwater treadmill.

🌊Thermal Properties- warm water increases circulation and helps to relax muscles and soft tissue structures, reduce stiffness and reduce discomfort. Making movement more comfortable and easier.
