Whatever the true reasons for and nature of climate change, it seems we need to get used to the concept of warmer summers and milder winters. One severe consequence of this will be an increase of parasites such as fleas and ticks. They will breed for longer periods and more will survive over winter. Not a happy prospect for dogs and cats!
Over the years in my veterinary practice I have found that some pets seem very prone to picking up parasites, whilst others rarely have any 'visitors'. I have come to the conclusion that healthy adult dogs and cats with good immune systems who are fed a healthy diet are much less likely to suffer from fleas and ticks. To help ensure pets stay free from parasites, keep them healthy by paying attention to:

Dogs sunburn just like you and I. Certain dogs are at a greater predisposition to sunburn, including white dogs, light-colored dogs, short-haired and hairless dogs. Regardless of colour, coat or breed, all dogs sunburn.
Dog sunburn is especially common in areas with little to no fur, such as their nose, belly, around the mouth, eyelids and ears. Dogs can also sunburn through their fur; especially white or light-colored dogs with fair skin.
A dog sunburn is nothing to ignore, as reoccurring or untreated burns lead to an increased risk for skin cancer. They can also be painful and irritating, just like sunburns for humans.

Over the last few years, like most businesses, we have experienced significant increases in costs - from rises in gas and electricity prices to packaging costs, to name just a few.
We therefore have no option but to make some changes to our shipping options to reflect the new economic circumstances. These changes will come into effect at Noon, 1st August 2023.
We only charge shipping at cost and we will continue to use Royal Mail's tracked services as many customers like the tracking information associated with this service.
The good news is we have managed to secure cheaper shipping so the cost of sending an item with Royal Mail is now less. We have also added some options to have faster shipping options such as Royal Mail Tracked 24. Unfortunately we will have to increase the cost of free shipping from £39.99 to £44.99

Here at Adored Beast, we talk a lot about how we can provide our animals with the healthiest diet possible. A healthy diet is paramount for overall health, as it not only provides our animals with various energy sources and nutrients, it also gives the body the tools it needs to stay healthy and the immune system the power to keep the body strong.
But one of the things that pet parents sometimes forget about is rotational feeding for dogs. It’s easy to create a healthy diet and feed that diet – but you also want to make sure that diet provides variety – and lots of it.
Creating a healthy diet (meaning both food and supplements) should always include rotation. Why? Let’s explore…
