    • Swimming safety for dogs, first aid for burns, and how to help your pet with the hot weather "itchies", all in our latest newsletter. To read it, please follow this link: https://mailchi.mp/caringvets/summernl2020 #summertime #summernewsletter #dogpaddle #swimmingpooch #blackandbrown #doggyfun #summerdog #divingdog #caringvets #caringvetsnarellan #vetsydney #camdenvet
    • With temperatures forecast to be in the high 30’s today it’s important to keep a close eye on pets. Please ensure they have shade, air circulation, and plenty of fresh cool water. Keep them indoors with you as much as possible and watch for any signs that they’re distressed. Dogs should be walked in the coolest times of the day. Signs of heatstroke include heavy panting, drooling, restlessness, weakness, bright red/blue/purple tongue and gums, diarrhoea, vomiting, and confusion. Contact us immediately if you notice any of these symptoms. #hotwaetheralert #hotweathersafety #bulldog #pinktongue #caringvets #caringvetsnarellan
    • What do baubles look like to dogs? Balls! And what do dogs do with balls? Keeping Christmas decorations out of reach of pets reduces the risk of them being shattering in their mouths or being swallowed. Tinsel, flashing lights, and decorations can cause serious injury to your pet and many decorations are choking risks. Keep the lower branches of Christmas trees free of decorations and keep an eye on your pet while they’re around them. #christmasbaulbles #chritmastree #dogbaubles #dogballs #christmashazards #treedown #naughtydoggy #christmasdog #christmasdogsofinstagram #caringvets #caringvetsnarellan
    • Grooming isn’t only about looking good. A well-maintained coat can help with skin health and parasite prevention. Remember though that dogs’ coats are a barrier to the sun and also act as a thermal regulator, therefore they shouldn’t necessarily be heavily clipped or shorn in summer. With Christmas just around the corner, now is the time to book a trip to the salon! #dogspa #dogrobe #doggrooming #dogchristmas #dogsunnies #relaxeddog #reddog #pinkdog #caringvets #caringvetsnarellan
    • Will your pets be going into boarding these holidays? A standard requirement is that their vaccinations and preventatives are up to date, and these need time to become effective.

    • Is it an old wives’ tale that dogs attract sharks? The curiosity of a sharks will attract them to any unusual animals in their environment, therefore dogs could most certainly be considered prey. The dog's splashing movement could make a shark think that it’s prey, however contrary to popular belief it’s the not the smell of dogs that attract sharks. #caringvet #caringvets #caringvetsnarellan #blackandtan #blackandgold #beautifulpuppy #sharks of instagram #dogsofinstagram #puppiesofinstagram #sharklove #sharklovers #sharkbites #sharkapparel #sharkapproved #beachclosed #closedbeach
    • Usually we’re concerned about dehydrated pets rather than one that is hyper-hydrated, but dogs can ingest dangerous amounts of water in a short period of time which can result it “hyponatremia”, or water intoxication. It’s pretty rare but its’s potentially very dangerous and is most commonly seen in dogs that love to play in the water. Don’t let your dog spend #caringvetsnarellan #caringvets #narellan #narellantowncentre #macarthur #harringtonpark #sydneyvet #sydneyvets #animalhelp #petcare #splashdogs #toohot #heatsafety #safedogs #hotpets #wetdog #wetdoggy #paddledog #prettypup #swimpup #doghouse #doggyfun
    • Cats have the edge over us when it comes to peripheral and night vision, all the better to spot that bug scurrying past in the corner! But they don't have the edge in all areas, and the human eye has better motion detection in bright light. We are also able to see a broader spectrum of colours. #caringvets #caringvetsnarellan #narellan #narellantowncentre #mtannan #sweetkitty #kittycat #cutekitten #sydneyvets #catdoctor #catwhiskers #greeneyes #feline #fabulousfeline #kittygirl #sydneycats #catseyesunglasses #catsoftheworld #spectrum #sunnies #catgoggles #groovycat #tortoiseshellcat #coolkittycats #kittycool #chilled
    • How fast can dogs run? Greyhounds are the fastest breed and can run at more than 70kph! The shape of a dog’s body influences their speed and faster breeds have slender waists but larger chests that hold large lungs and a large heart. Greyhounds can reach their top speed with just six strides from a standing start, with Cheetahs being the only other animal with that kind of acceleration. #caringvet #caringvets #caringvetsnarellan #greyhoundspeed #takeoff #beautifulpuppy #getreadyfortakeoff #doggystyles #leapingdog #dogsofinstagram #greyhound_feature ofinstagram #greyhoundlife
    • Cat workouts can help to keep cats healthy well into their old age. Exercising a dog is a no-brainer, but how do you entice a cat to exercise? Try multi-tiered cat towers, plenty of toys, chasing games, bouncing balls, lasers, wands (flexible style with a feather or mouse), and outdoor play (if they’re into it). #caringvets #caringvetsnarellan #gymtime #catwork #cutekitty #catfeatures #personaltrainer #catsofinstagram #gymclass #catfitness #fitballs #bouncelittlekitty
    • Ok, so your dog isn’t going to like us for this, but we need to warn that travelling in a moving vehicle with their head out of the window is dangerous, as it can damage their delicate ears, noses, and eyes. Instead, they should enjoy the ride from the comfort and safety of the backseat, with the windows only cracked open if not closed altogether, with the air conditioning on instead. #caringvet #caringvets #caringvetsnarellan #carwindow #headoutwindow #beautifulpuppy #babydog #fastpuppy #feeltherush #bichonsofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #puppiesofinstagram #doggystyle🐶
