💡Myth: Dogs can eat cat food.

🔍Fact: Dogs can eat cat food occasionally, however, it’s not ideal. Cat food is specifically designed for feline nutritional needs, often containing higher levels of protein and fat. If your dog regularly eats cat food, it can lead to nutrient imbalances and health issues. Sticking to a well-balanced dog diet is best for their overall health and wellbeing.

Myth: Indoor pets don't need parasite prevention. They do! 👇️⁠

Indoor pets are still at risk of parasites like fleas, ticks, and worms which can be brought indoors by people or other pets. ⁠

Don't let myths put your pet's health at risk. Be proactive about parasite prevention and book an appointment with your local vet 🐈️ ⁠

☀️ Summer Safety Tip ☀️ Let's not forget: leaving our furry friends in cars can pose risks, even on cooler days! 🚗

🌡️ Did you know? On a warm day, the temperature inside a car can rise by 11°C in just 10 minutes, and nearly 16°C in 20 minutes. These numbers highlight the importance of never leaving pets unattended in cars, even for a short while.

Let’s keep our furry friends safe - the best choice is to leave them at home with plenty of fresh water and a shady spot to relax 🐾

Let's talk about desexing. One of the primary benefits is the health advantages it offers 🩷💙⁠

Performed by experienced veterinarians, desexing is a routine procedure that prevents reproductive cancers.⁠

Desexing also eliminates the risk of unwanted pregnancies and leads to positive changes in behaviour, such as reduced roaming and aggression.⁠

The optimal time for desexing varies based on a range of factors such as species, breed size, and individual health conditions. Every pet is unique, so speak to your local vet to determine the best approach for your furry friend. ⁠

Find out more about desexing your pet https://ow.ly/57n450QAs8T and schedule a desexing consultation today!🐾⁠

Just like us, dogs can get sunburned too! It's a common belief that a dog's fur provides sufficient protection from the sun, but it’s not foolproof.⁠

It's important to protect our furry friends, especially those with short or light-coloured coats, from the harmful effects of the sun.⁠

Opt for pet-friendly sunscreen and apply it to their nose, ears, belly, and groin area - the particularly vulnerable spots. ⁠

Avoid using human sunscreen which can be toxic if ingested during any curious taste-testing. ⁠

Sunburn isn't fun for anyone. Let's keep our pups happy and well-protected this summer! 🧴🐾⁠

Make sure you're following us for more tips and advice on keeping your pets safe and happy.⁠
