✅ Having a chat with our team regarding recommendations for soothing pet shampoo and skin conditioning products, such as those containing oatmeal or ceramides
✅ Grooming your pet regularly to remove dead hairs and prevent matts
✅ Ensuring your pet is always kept up to date with parasite prevention

In scrubby or bushy regions, summer can equal snakes! 🐍

If you visit areas with your dog where venomous snakes could be present, it’s best to keep your pet on a short lead by your side. It’s also a good idea to be aware of the more common symptoms of snake bite, which can include:
✅ Temporary collapse
✅ Weakness or wobbliness
✅ Muscle tremors
✅ Large pupils
✅ Loss of bladder or bowel control
✅ Dark or bloody discoloured urine

⚠️ If you ever suspect your pet has been bitten by a snake, try to stay calm and seek immediate veterinary treatment.

For more information on snake bites in pets, consult our snake-savvy vets.

“Why does my dog keep getting ear infections?” 👂

Whilst any dog can develop a one-off ear issue, some unlucky pets seem to have a predisposition to problems.

Recurrent ear infections in dogs are commonly secondary to underlying allergies (such as environmental or food allergies) but can also occur in dogs who swim frequently, breeds with droopy ears such as spaniels, and breeds with naturally narrow ear canals such as Shar Peis.

If your pet suffers from recurrent ear infections, it’s best to book a consult and lend us your ears, as there are lots we can offer to help manage the issue. 📞

Does your dog experience episodes of “reverse sneezing”? 😮‍💨

Reverse sneezing is when pets appear to get stuck in a temporary loop of snorting air in via their nose, almost as though they have something stuck in their nose or throat.

While a lot of dogs will reverse sneeze on occasion, it tends to occur more frequently in pets with overlong soft palates (such as flat-faced breeds), long-nosed sighthounds, and pets experiencing nose or throat irritation due to allergies or airborne irritants such as pollen or smoke.

If you have any concerns about your dog’s respiratory health, take a deep breath and consult our veterinary team! 🐾

PSA (Pet Service Announcement): please don’t forget to stay on top of regular parasite prevention for your pet, especially as the weather warms up! ☀️🐕

Warmer conditions favour the survival and breeding of pesky parasites such as fleas, ticks and some intestinal worms. Additionally, in heartworm-endemic areas, mosquitoes capable of spreading dangerous heartworm disease between pets will also become more active.

For advice on the safest and most effective parasite prevention routines for your pet, consult our knowledgeable team.

Does your cat get runny eyes? 👀

Persians and similar breeds are more likely to get regular eye goop due to their flatter facial anatomy. However, recurrent eye discharge can also be associated with other health issues, such as environmental allergies or cat flu.

If your cat regularly gets weepy eyes but seems otherwise fine, we’d recommend twice daily cleaning around their eyes with a clean, warm, wet compress. However, if your cat’s eye discharge is associated with any redness, irritation, or other unwellness, it’s best to have them checked by one of our vets.

When it comes to feline eye health, our team is eye-mazing!
