Hey Sunners, it's time to bring your flea treatments up to scratch.
Flo and I were overjoyed to see Jorg the Mount Mobile Vet van pull up outside No.1 The Strand this week. Not because we particularly enjoy vet check-ups, but Jorg and his team had some yummy dog treats.
We had the once-over and our annual shots, then some flea treatment. Flo, who spends a bit of time in the bush chasing varmints, needed some special tick treatment too, since she's at risk of picking up hitchhikers!
Or should that be itch-hikers?
Jorg checked us over thoroughly and brought all our records up to date, so if we have to stay in the Dog Hotel at any stage over the holidays, we'll have all our current paperwork set.
Get all of your household critters sorted now, before the pre-holiday rush and prevent the flea outbreaks – let's not give them a chance.
Thanks to the great service of the Mobile Vet team for keeping us in stunning condition.
Meanwhile, we're kicking off another pet photo competition. Send us your favourite animal pics or post them onto Flo's Facebook page.
The best will be published here each week and will win dog-tastic prizes.
Till next week, take care and drink plenty of water. -Ady.
