• Food allergies in dogs

  Just like people, dogs can be allergic to something in their food. This often causes skin and/or tummy problems.

• Obesity in dogs

  Vets estimate that nearly half of dogs in the UK are overweight! Being obese puts your dog at risk of health problems, and is likely to reduce how long they live.

• Diabetes in dogs

  A dog with diabetes can't control their blood sugar levels (much like type 1 diabetes in people) and require lifelong treatment.

• Weight loss in dogs

  If you think your dog might be losing weight it’s important to have them checked, and to tell you vet about any other symptoms you’ve noticed, such as vomiting, diarrhoea, low energy, or changes in their appetite and thirst.

• Why do dogs eat poo?

  Unfortunately (for us!), many dogs enjoy the taste of poo, and eating it (coprophagia) is a very normal dog behaviour. Contrary to popular belief, if your dog eats poo, it’s unlikely to be because of a health problem or something missing from their diet.
