Here at Langford Vet Practice we recognise that our canine friends are an integral part of the family. That’s why we’re here to support you with general healthcare, advice when you have concerns about your dog and even 24/7 on-site emergency service should you need us.
A healthy pet is supported by routine preventative health care. This is NOT normally included in a health insurance policy. In some cases your pet insurance policy may be invalidated if you do not provide preventative health care for your pet.
Our Langford Club membership is a way of providing essential preventative health care at great value.
Preventative health care includes:
Try our Dogs and Puppies Insights page.
In most cases vaccine protection will drop gradually following a booster and booster vaccines are recommended. The interval between vaccines does vary depending on the vaccine but also the lifestyle of your pet. We always try to provide individualised health advice so that you can choose the best option for you and your pet.
Vaccines for puppies are most effective if given at around 8 weeks and 12 weeks of age.
YES, please book an appointment as soon as possible so we can start your pup’s protection. Older puppies may require a slightly altered vaccine schedule and we will ensure your puppy gets the best protection whatever their age.
After 6 months of age is normally safe for most dogs/bitches although in larger breeds it may be appropriate to delay until they are more mature. Please book in, call or email for individual advice.
There are many pros/cons to neutering but for most pets it does provide more benefits than risks. Please book in to see one of our vets who can help explain the benefits and risks to your pet’s individual circumstances, which will help you decide what is best for your pet.
Vaccines are a medicine that are designed to help your immune system fight of disease. They are typically used for very dangerous diseases that are otherwise difficult or impossible to treat. There are reported side effects to all medications including vaccines, however they have gone through extensive testing prior to being used in pets and side effects are constantly monitored to identify any concerns going forward. The risk of side effects is extremely low, and the overall benefit of appropriate vaccination is overwhelming.
Gentle desensitisation and counter-conditioning can help anxious dogs feel more comfortable with handling, like brushing or grooming. With short, positive sessions and patience, you can build your dog’s confidence and trust.
A head halter helps guide your dog’s movement and focus calmly, making walks safer and more controlled. With gentle, reward-based training, your dog can learn to wear it comfortably and confidently.
Muzzle training helps keep your dog and others safe. Use short, positive sessions with treats to help your dog feel calm and comfortable wearing a muzzle.
