We would like to introduce Solo who we first saw at our Kingsnorth branch as an emergency out of hours, after being attacked by a couple of dogs whilst out for a walk. Solo was in shock, with multiple large, deep vertical wounds to her chest, exposing her tissue and ribs below.
Walk your dogs in the morning or the evening-before 8am and after 5pm is best. Not only will this prevent them overheating in the midday sun, but hot road surfaces, pavements and sand can burn paws.
Whether you are just out and about this summer, on walks, at dog shows, training classes or are planning on putting your dog in boarding kennels while you are on holiday, Kennel Cough can be a real problem.

Our vet Sharon Marsh paid a visit to the newly opened Wye School recently to talk to their Science Class. The students from A set were shown many X-rays and Sharon gave anecdotes about different conditions she has treated in a variety of small animals. The students were fascinated and asked many questions about these and their own pets. Thank you to Wye School for making Sharon so welcome.
