With the festive season approaching, our vet Dr. Anubhav answers common questions, like how to keep pets calm during fireworks and which festive foods to strictly avoid. Your pet's safety is our top priority.
For new pet parents, deworming and vaccination are the two most critical first steps. Dr. Mishra explains the correct schedule for puppies and kittens to ensure they have a healthy start in life.
Should pets be allowed around kids? I share my strong belief that growing up with pets teaches children invaluable lessons in empathy, kindness, and responsibility, contributing positively to their mental health.
A clear and direct infographic to start our series on fruits that are not safe for dogs. We believe in providing simple, easy to understand information to help pet parents make safe choices.
Grapes and raisins are extremely toxic to dogs and can cause kidney failure. This is a critical piece of information that every dog owner should know.
Did you know avocado contains persin, which can cause vomiting and diarrhea in dogs? It's best to keep this creamy fruit away from your furry friend.
Cherries, especially the pits, stems, and leaves, contain cyanide and are toxic to dogs. They also pose a choking hazard. This is another important fruit to avoid.
About this collection
Keeping your pet healthy shouldn't feel like a guessing game. Our in-house vet, Dr. Anubhav, breaks down essential medical knowledge, from identifying toxic foods to setting up critical vaccination schedules, so you know exactly how to support your furbaby, whether you are a new parent or a seasoned pro.
We know the panic that sets in when you are unsure about your pet's health. That is why we host regular sessions to bridge the gap between complex veterinary guidance and your daily routine.
Nutritional Safety Your kitchen might be full of hazards you are not aware of. Common items like grapes, raisins, and avocado contain toxins that can lead to kidney issues or digestive distress in dogs. We provide clear, visual guides so you can quickly distinguish between safe snacks, like apples in moderation, and dangerous ones, like citrus peels or cherry pits, that should stay off the menu entirely.
The First Few Months Bringing home a kitten or puppy is exciting but intense. Dr. Anubhav emphasizes that early medical care is non-negotiable. Deworming must start early, often every 15 days up to six months, because these little ones can carry worms from birth. Vaccination schedules are equally strict, starting at 45 days for puppies and two months for kittens. Missing these windows puts their immunity at risk.
Monitoring for Chronic Issues It is easy to miss subtle signs of illness in pets. Diabetes in pets, for example, often manifests as excessive thirst or sudden weight loss despite a normal appetite. Early detection changes the prognosis entirely, allowing for insulin management that lets your companion live a full, happy life.
We believe that when you are better informed, you make better decisions. Visit us in HSR Layout if you need specific guidance or just want to chat about your pet's long-term wellness.
