September marks Animal Pain Awareness Month🐱🐶🐰

Looking for changes in your pet and speaking to your Vet as soon as possible means we can help your pets sooner.

Even the most subtle changes can be an indication of pain.

Pain relief does not need to be "saved for when it gets worse" because the sooner we can control the pain, the less intervention needed.

Your vet can talk you through options that suit your pet and their condition.

Long term medications do not necessarily increase the likelihood of problems. In fact, long term dosing has shown to improve mobility and the way the body perceives pain.

We can also look at other therapies such as physiotherapy, hydrotherapy, weight loss to name a few.

A good quality of life is so important for our pets and it is not a one size fits all solution.

Please talk to us if you have any concerns about your pets health, mobility or pain. We will help you come up with the best plan that works for you.

To book your pets for their next appointment, please book online at thevetwhitehaven.co.uk or by calling us on 01946 878108 to speak with a member of our team!
