Monitor Your Pets Health

Dogs are so anxious to please meaning it’s often difficult to know when they’re sick or in pain. Please take pay attention to signs that they may be suffering.

 

Common symptoms include:

  • Not eating
  • Excessive thirst
  • Dry, patchy coat
  • Lethargic
  • Sudden weight loss
  • Vomiting or diarrhoea
  • Red, weepy eyes
  • Dragging rear

    • These symptoms may appear together or separately, but if you notice anything out of the ordinary—always consult your vet.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    At Blue & White Veterinary Clinic, we pride ourselves on offering a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet the unique needs of your furry friend. We offer comprehensive veterinary services, including regular health check-ups, vaccinations, grooming, nutritional advice, and behavioural training for puppies. Our dedicated team ensures that your dog receives the best care, keeping them happy and healthy.

    Regular vet visits are crucial to ensure your dog’s overall health and wellbeing. For puppies, it’s recommended to have monthly check-ups until they’re about six months old. Adult dogs, on the other hand, should have a general check-up at least once a year. However, if you notice any unusual behaviour or symptoms in your dog, it’s always a good idea to consult with us sooner.

    Absolutely! Blue & White Veterinary Clinic is both licensed and insured. We adhere to the highest standards of veterinary practice and are committed to providing top-notch care for your pets. Our clinic undergoes regular inspections, and our team is continuously trained to ensure we’re up-to-date with the latest in veterinary medicine.

    If your dog is injured or shows signs of illness, it’s essential to act promptly. Firstly, remain calm and try to comfort your pet. Avoid handling them too much if they’re injured. Contact us immediately, and our experienced team will guide you on the next steps. If it’s outside our regular hours, seek emergency veterinary care.

    When you bring your dog to Blue & White Veterinary Clinic, you can expect a warm and welcoming environment. Our friendly staff will greet you and your pet upon arrival. We’ll start with a general assessment, followed by any specific treatments or check-ups you’ve scheduled. Throughout the process, our team will ensure your dog is comfortable and well-taken care of. After the visit, we’ll provide you with any necessary follow-up instructions or recommendations to keep your dog in top shape.

    The age range of 8–17 weeks is a critical period in a puppy’s development. During this time, their brain is highly receptive and ready to learn lifelong behavioural and social skills. It’s the ideal window to instil good habits and positive behaviours that will benefit them throughout their life.

    Socialising your puppy at a young age, especially with other dogs and people, is crucial. It helps in preventing aggressive and violent responses as they grow older. Early socialisation ensures that your puppy grows up to be a well-adjusted, confident and friendly adult dog, reducing the chances of behavioural issues in the future.

    At our puppy preschool, we focus on essential obedience training to set a strong foundation for your puppy’s behaviour. This includes teaching them commands like “sit”, “drop”, “come”, and “wait”. We also cover toilet training as a part of our puppy preschool curriculum, providing guidance and techniques to make the process smoother for you and your furry friend. Our experienced trainers use positive reinforcement techniques to ensure your puppy learns skills for life.
