-

PETS play an important and integral role in the the lives of their owners and it’s essential that their health and well-being is always taken care of.

A healthy pet is a happy pet and the importance of regular check-ups, proper nutrition and good grooming are key components in ensuring that your pet always remains healthy and happy.

However, there are a number of factors to consider when it comes to choosing the best type of food for your pet.

As any dog owner will tell you they can be picky when it comes to certain dog food brands but more importantl­y it’s always good to ensure you are giving your pet the most appropriat­e type of food relevant to its size and breed.

The same is true of many other family pets such as cats.

One must also not to forget the importance of spaying and neutering and in the case of female dogs this can help prevent the onset of some serious conditions as they get older while in male dogs it can help protect them from a range of conditions.

There is also the peace of mind that comes with knowing once neutered your dog won’t be as inclined to go walkabout in search of females and if your dog is female you won’t have a string of unwanted suitors waiting at your door.

Whatever type of pet you have it’s always good practice to get expert advice and tips on how best to look after them so that they will be a welcome addition to your family for as long as possible and while doing so they will also remain health, safe and happy.
