The cute little puppy you’ve just brought home will be good for your whole family’s health. True! It’s a scientific fact that pet owners enjoy improved cholesterol health, lower blood pressure and recover from illness and surgery quicker. Children also benefit from increased self esteem and better social skills. But remember, to reap the benefits a puppy can bring, it is vital to ensure your puppy is kept healthy and happy. One of the best ways to do this is to protect your dog from parasites such as worms and fleas and follow some simple grooming, nutrition and general care rules. Having a new puppy join your family can be an exciting and challenging time. Training and socialisation of your new puppy is vital if they are to grow up and become well behaved members of our community. For help with training and socialisation go our Training Page

Arthritis is a degenerative disease of the synovial joints. Arthritis causes inflammation of the synovial membrane, cartilage erosion, and subchonral bone alterations. Left unmanaged, the damage arthritis inflicts on a joint results in severe cartilage destruction, leaving the subchondral bones exposed. Bone on bone friction causes chronic pain. That pain can lead to decreased exercise and resulting weight gain, which puts even more stress on the affected joints, continuing the cycle of pain. Arthritis affects up to one in five adult dogs, yet pet owners often fail to recognise the condition. Owners often attribute their dogs’ limping or slowed movements to part of the natural aging process. But arthritis is the most common cause of chronic pain in adult dogs, and although the pain is not life threatening, it can greatly diminish the pet’s quality of life.
