Todayโ€™s the day to celebrate the fluffy bundles of joy that steal our hearts and our shoes! ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’– From wagging tails to puppy dog eyes, weโ€™re here to appreciate all the cute chaos they bring into our lives. ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿพ

โ€œOne for You, One for Me?โ€ ๐Ÿš‘

Pets are sneakyโ€”especially when it comes to stealing pills! ๐Ÿ’Š๐Ÿพ
But what helps you can harm them. Just one paracetamol or ibuprofen tablet can be fatal to a dog or cat! ๐Ÿšจ
Store meds securely, never leave them on counters, and if disaster strikes, call your vet immediately! ๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿ•

โ€œBut They Told Me It Was Organic!โ€ ๐ŸŒฑโ˜ ๏ธ

Just because something is natural doesnโ€™t mean itโ€™s safe! Essential oils, some houseplants, and even certain herbal remedies can be toxic to pets AND humans. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’€
Before you diffuse, drink, or decorateโ€”double-check it wonโ€™t send anyone to the vet or hospital! ๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿพ

Happy K-9 Veterans Day! ๐Ÿพ

Today, we salute the brave, four-legged heroes whoโ€™ve served alongside usโ€”always loyal, always ready, and never once filing a complaint (except, perhaps, about the lack of extra treats).

From sniffing out danger to saving lives, these courageous canines have stood by our side with wagging tails and unwavering dedication. They donโ€™t ask for medalsโ€”just a good belly rub and maybe a biscuit or two.

To all the military and working dogs, past and present, we salute you! ๐Ÿ•๐ŸŽ–๏ธ

Got a heroic hound at home? Give them an extra cuddle todayโ€”theyโ€™ve earned it! โค๏ธ๐Ÿถ

โœจ Our lovely model kindly complied with having their ears cleanedโ€”no complaints, no wiggling, just pure professionalism! ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿพ Have a look and see for yourself!

1๏ธโƒฃ Gather Supplies โ€“ Get dog-friendly ear cleaner, cotton wool, and treats (for bribery, of course! ๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ˜†).
2๏ธโƒฃ Check the Ears โ€“ Look for redness, swelling, or bad smells. If anything seems off, see your vet! ๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿพ
3๏ธโƒฃ Apply Cleaner โ€“ Gently squeeze a few drops into the ear canal, then massage the base of the ear to break up any gunk. ๐Ÿซง๐Ÿ’†โ€โ™‚๏ธ
4๏ธโƒฃ Let Them Shake โ€“ Stand back! Your dog will do the hard work and shake out the loosened dirt. You can always let them do this at the end of the cleaning!๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿคฃ
5๏ธโƒฃ Wipe Away โ€“ Use cotton wool (never cotton buds!) to gently clean the outer ear. Make sure to use a clean cotton wool ball with every wipe. ๐ŸŽถโœจ
6๏ธโƒฃ Reward! โ€“ Plenty of praise, treats, and ear rubs for being a good pup! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ‘‚

If youโ€™ve got any questions (or if your own little one needs a clean-up), book an appointmentโ€”weโ€™re always happy to help! ๐Ÿฉท๐Ÿ’ซ

Not only do we work with our little furry friends ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ“ฑ, but every now and then, Dr Crosson likes to get a little wildโ€”helping out our big cats ๐Ÿ† and rhinos ๐Ÿฆ (donโ€™t worry, no sudden cat fightsโ€ฆ yet! ๐Ÿ˜‚).

From our beloved pets to the majestic wildlife of South Africa, today is all about celebrating and protecting them! ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’š

One of the BIGGEST reasons pets gain weight? Overfeeding! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ Many owners donโ€™t realise theyโ€™re giving too much food, leading to unhealthy weight gain.

๐Ÿ“ How to Avoid Overfeeding:
โœ… Measure portions instead of guessing.
โœ… Stick to feeding schedules โ€“ no grazing all day!
โœ… Watch the treats! (They add up fast.)
โœ… Choose the right food for your petโ€™s breed, age, and activity level.

๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ Did you know? Some breeds, like beagles, dachshunds, and golden retrievers, are genetically more prone to obesity. They need fewer calories than youโ€™d expect!

๐Ÿ’ฌ Be honest โ€“ does your pet get โ€œextrasโ€ from the dinner table?
Let us know with a ๐Ÿ– in the comments!

Did you know 25โ€“40% of pets seen in vet clinics are overweight? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ While a chubby pet may seem cute, those extra pounds can lead to arthritis, diabetes, breathing issues, and even a shorter lifespan.

๐Ÿง Signs Your Pet Might Be Overweight:
๐Ÿ”น You canโ€™t easily feel their ribs.
๐Ÿ”น They have a round, sagging belly.
๐Ÿ”น They get tired quickly during walks or playtime.
๐Ÿ”น They struggle to jump or climb.

A healthy pet is a happy pet! ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ If youโ€™re unsure, ask your vet for a body condition check. Prevention is always better than cure! โค๏ธ

๐Ÿ’ฌ Tell us โ€“ does your pet love food a little TOO much?

๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ THE GREAT DOGGY FOOD DEBATE! ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ๐Ÿถ

You know the look. The puppy-dog eyes. The head tilt. The subtle sigh as they stare longingly at your plate, convinced that your food tastes better than theirs. ๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿฅบ

But before you cave to those Oscar-worthy performances, letโ€™s talk about whatโ€™s safe for our furry food critics! ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

โœ… Yes, please! (Healthy & safe snacks) ๐Ÿฅ’๐ŸŒ๐Ÿฅ•๐ŸŸ
Cucumber, bananas, pumpkin, blueberries, carrots, strawberries, apples, kiwis, tomatoes, pears, meat, poultry, eggs, cooked fish, mango, coconut, sweet potatoes, peas, peppers, radishes, asparagus, spinach.

โš ๏ธ In Moderation! (A little nibble wonโ€™t hurt, but donโ€™t overdo it) ๐ŸŒฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฅ“๐Ÿ‰
Broccoli, pineapple, corn, raspberries, apricots, lettuce, peaches, watermelon, ham, rice, dates, bacon, olives, potatoes, bread, figs, oranges, cheese.

๐Ÿšซ Not Recommended! (Avoid theseโ€”no matter how much they stare at you! ๐Ÿ‘€) ๐ŸŒญ๐Ÿง‚๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿง
Peppers, cherries, salt, sausages, pickles, pistachios, biscuits, croissants, ice cream, ketchup, lemons.

โŒ Absolutely Not! (These can be TOXIC โ˜ ๏ธ) ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‡โ˜•๐Ÿง„
Raw fish, fat, coffee, mushrooms, alcohol, grapes & raisins, rhubarb, currants, avocados, chocolate, soda, onions, garlic, macadamia nuts, sweets, tea, cooked bones, milk.

We get it. Itโ€™s hard to say no to that face. ๐Ÿ˜ญ But next time your dog telepathically begs for a bite of your meal, keep this list in mind! Their health is in our hands (and on our plates!). โค๏ธ๐Ÿพ
