Regular care
Preventative health care is the best way to ensure that your pet lives a healthy life. We always recommend annual physical examinations to ensure your pet’s overall health and wellbeing, behaviour, diet and routine is in order. It’s also very important to protect them against harmful diseases, parasites and intestinal worms. Our Veterinarians and Veterinary Nurses will be able to recommend the most suitable preventative treatments in safeguarding your pet’s health.
If medical conditions are detected and early treatment is administered, treatment time and costs is dramatically reduced, improving your pet’s health and wellbeing.
VACCINATIONS
Just like humans, pets require vaccinations to keep them healthy and protect them from potentially fatal diseases. Treatment against these diseases is sometimes unsuccessful and this is why we strongly believe ‘prevention is better than cure’.
FLEAS, TICKS & WORMS
Parasites spend their time living on or inside our pets resulting in damage to our pet’s well being and general health. Fleas, ticks and intestinal worms are the most important parasites to protect your pet against.
WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
Our pets are subject to similar health situations to us humans, that includes being overweight. This is particularly important as many health problems such as arthritis, heart disease, pancreatitis and diabetes are related to being overweight.
DENTISTRY
As you may be aware, dental disease not only affects us but can affect our much loved pets too, so regular checks are important in maintaining your pet’s gleaming white smile.

Summer Dangers

Unlike people, most animals can’t sweat and have to lose excess heat through evaporation by panting.

Paralysis Ticks
Our pets love the summer just as much as we do! It’s a great time of year to be outside enjoying the warmth and sunshine but also important that you recognise the dangers of the Paralysis Tick to our pets during the warmer months. What are Paralysis Ticks and how do...
