Two year old dachshund Frank came in to see Hamish yesterday in this fabulous – and very cosy – pet carrier. Frank is quite an anxious pup, so feels much more secure travelling in his carry bag next to mum when he comes into practice. Definitely Frank’s happy place!

We were delighted to welcome our Registered Veterinary Nurse Charlotte Radjenovic back from maternity leave earlier this month. Charlotte will be working three days a week in order to balance work with looking after her little boy Colby. We’ve loved having Charlotte in practice on ‘keeping in touch’ days whilst she’s been off – a big help to us, and for Charlotte, it’s meant coming back into practice after maternity leave hasn’t been so much of a change. She’s also been working towards completing her Veterinary Nurse Consulting Certificate over the last 12 months, and will be able to put new learning around preventative care and chronic and acute conditions to great use in the consult room!

With predictions for a foot of snow in the next 24 hours, here are some great tips from The Dogs Trust for keeping dogs safe when you’re out and about in wintery weather:
In snowy weather, to help prevent injury, keep dogs on a lead to ensure they don’t unwittingly venture onto unsafe ground or stumble into holes hidden by snowfall.
Do up any lead or harness clips before you set out as they are harder to manage with cold hands.
Some dogs get cold more readily than others. Shorter-haired breeds and puppies will benefit from wearing a dog coat to keep them warm.
Don’t let dogs walk on frozen ponds as the ice may not bear their weight. If they do fall in, do not go in after them. Encourage your dog to swim back to you if possible and call the emergency services.
Make sure you and your dog are easily visible to others in poor weather to keep you safe.
After winter walks, wipe your dog’s legs, feet and tummy as grit and dampness can cause irritation.
If it’s too nasty to go outside for any length of time, have some activities to hand to entertain your dog indoors. Long lasting chews, LickiMats® and enrichment toys are great for engagement. Check out our carefully curated range in our waiting room!

Every December we run a ‘Give a Pet a Christmas Dinner’ campaign to support dogs and cats in local shelters waiting for their forever homes. We collect wet and dry food and treats, but also welcome pet accessories to provide homeless pets with a little extra festive love. Accessories can include collars, leads, toys, blankets, bedding, bowls – pretty much anything you think would be useful for feline and canine wellbeing and care. We collect throughout the month and donations are then distributed to Birmingham Dogs Home (Coven branch) and various local cat charities early in the new year.
Our collection bins are all set up and ready to receive in our 387 and West Midlands Cat Clinic waiting rooms! If you’d like to donate, we’d be incredibly grateful and we know pets in shelter – and the charities themselves – will be incredibly grateful too.
