The question of whether to put a bell on your cat's collar sparks a lot of discussion among cat owners, and for good reason! There's no single right answer; what's best depends on your cat's unique personality, lifestyle, and your home environment.
As we head into the festive season, we want to reassure you we will still be here for you and your pet, however with some slightly different opening hours than normal.
With the country set for a warm summer, Dr Brian Hogan at Blacks Vets in Dudley, is reminding animal lovers of some key advice to ensure their pets are comfortable and stay cool.
Brian said: “While many of us are happy to see the summer sunshine, pet owners play a really important role in helping their animals cope in the heat.
Travelling with your dog can be an exciting adventure, but it requires some planning to ensure a smooth journey for both you and your dog. Whether you're embarking on a road trip, flying to a new destination, or simply heading to Blacks Vets in the West Midlands for a check-up, preparing your dog adequately is key to a stress-free experience. Here, we share some top tips to make sure your dog is travel-ready and comfortable throughout your journey.

We all know stress can take a toll on our health, but did you know it can also significantly impact your pet’s well-being in Birmingham as well? Just like us, pets experience stress and anxiety in response to various situations. Chronic stress, however, can have a detrimental effect on your pet’s physical and mental health.
Our pets here in Birmingham bring us countless moments of joy and unconditional love throughout their lives. As they enter their senior years, however, their needs can change. They may become less energetic, require adjustments to their diet and environment, and be more susceptible to certain health concerns.
Understanding these changes and making adjustments to their care routine is essential for ensuring their continued happiness and wellbeing in their golden years. Senior pet insurance can also play a valuable role in providing financial security for their potential future veterinary needs.
Summer is a time for fun in the sun, and many of us enjoy spending time outdoors with our pets, however, on the surface of ponds and lakes can be a hidden danger: blue-green algae. While not all algae are harmful, blue-green algae (also known as cyanobacteria) can produce extremely dangerous toxins and be fatal to dogs.
At Blacks Vets in Birmingham, we want to ensure you and your dog have a safe and enjoyable time outdoors, so, here’s what you need to know about blue-green algae and how to keep your dog safe.
