Michelle from Scamps Pet Health People in action !! Bryn has developed some 'interesting' growths so a cytology is in order to determine our next course of action. Having this done at home has proved to be a game changer for dogs like Bryn - it becomes a stress free procedure for those animals who find vet visits a real behavioural struggle. Job well done πŸ‘Œ

The area of consent and force free veterinary protocols is one that I consider extremely important. More vets need to be doing it.
I’m extremely happy to be able to recommend Michelle and her new practice as one that works hard with her clients to achieve this.
If you are looking for an alternative to your current situation, please contact her, your animals will thank you !!

A great technique to implement to help mitigate potential overheating and eye and nasal irritants πŸ‘

A great technique to implement to help mitigate potential overheating and eye and nasal irritants πŸ‘

As summers continue to get warmer year-over-year, new research from the Penn Vet Working Dog Center (PVWDC) reveals the best way to prevent dogs from overheating.

After comparing various cooling methods, researchers found when a dog voluntarily submerged their head in clean, room-temperature water to retrieve a treat or toy, they not only cooled off faster, but also avoided dangerous post-exercise temperature spikes.

β€œDuring heat stress, blood flow to the head, nose, tongue, and ears is increased,” said Cynthia M. Otto, VMD, PhD, lead author of the study and executive director of the PVWDC. β€œCooling the tissues of the head allows for rapid cooling of the whole body with limited amounts of water.”

We have been with Sniffspot since June 15 this year and have been visited by 44 different dogs already - Great to be able to offer a safe spot for these canines and their carers to get some quality off leash time πŸ‘

This is one of our special boys - young Samuel, one of my favourites 😍
He's a beauty lad - judging the physic and olfactory ability would be confident to say he was GSP X. Beautiful temperament and very trainable - in these pics he is meeting one of the resident pigs for the first time and can engage / disengage beautifully on command. At present he's approx. 5 1/2 mths old.
He needs to be out of the shelter environment asap if he is not to go backwards, so if anyone out there is thinking about a addition to their k9 team - please contact me for more info.

I would take this guy on myself but am not in a position to unfortunately with a houseful already πŸ™, so really hoping we can find him an appropriate foster or home. Would make a great sport dog !!!

Yes, yes yes!!
