Could your pet have kidney disease?
Chronic kidney failure is common in older dogs and cats. Some symptoms are very subtle, while others are more obvious.
Symptoms may include:
Increased thirst and/or urination
Nausea and vomiting
Weight loss
Decreased appetite
Tiredness and lethargy
Blood in urine
Overall weakness
Pale gums
Signs of dental disease like smelly breath, pale gums, and mouth ulcers
Untidy fur and/or itchy skin
If your pet shows any of these symptoms, a visit to the vet is the best plan, so that diagnosis and appropriate treatment can be started.
Give us a call.

Do you give Peanut Butter to your dog? Dogs can eat (and really enjoy) peanut butter! But there are some things to be aware of:
🥜 Never give them peanut butter that contains xylitol, as this is toxic to dogs.
🥜 Peanut Butter should only be used in moderation (think as a treat or when giving them their wormer!)
🥜 Putting PB in a KONG Box toy can keep your dog occupied, great for keeping them calm.
