In honour of Mental Health Awareness Week, we're here to highlight the perks of pet ownership! Research has shown that being a pet owner offers a range of mental health benefits. Pets are proven to alleviate stress and anxiety, combat loneliness, mitigate depression, and even enhance heart health. It's important to recognise, however, that being a responsible pet owner requires careful consideration of both the animal's well-being and your mental health. While the companionship of pets can have a positive impact, it's essential to acknowledge the responsibility and potential challenges associated with pet ownership as well. Tap here 👉🏼 https://ow.ly/S5gh50RHUnx to learn more about the positive effects of pets on mental health in this article written by lead veterinary nurse Fiona Redfern. Please share to help raise awareness for Mental Health Awareness Week (MHAW). . . #mentalhealthawarenessweek #MHAW #MHAW2024

National Pet Month (NPM) is a celebration of responsible pet ownership that takes place every year from April - May 😸💕🐶 It promotes the benefits of having pets as companions and encourages pet owners to provide proper care, nutrition, and safety to their pets. This is a great time to show your pets some extra love and attention and remind ourselves of the important responsibilities that come with being a pet owner. Throughout this month, we will be sharing pet parenting tips from our vet team across social media. Let's celebrate and raise awareness of responsible pet ownership together! . . #nationalpetmonth #npm #pethealth #petcare

The Competition and Markets Authority has carried out a formal investigation into UK vet groups and found several issues. The watchdog has expressed concerns that pet owners may be paying too much for medicines and prescriptions. It has also highlighted that consumers are not always informed about the cost of treatment before consenting to it, and that they are not given basic information such as price lists and prescription costs.

Bye-bye Buddy, Hello Heckin Good! If you have been keeping up with our start-up journey, you will know that it's been a bit of a rough ride so far. Our initial goal was to help pet parents give their furry friends the best possible care from home. However, we soon realised that it's hard to stand out in an industry where almost every other business has "buddy" in its name. To address this, we knew we had to create a new brand identity that would set us apart from the rest of the pet industry pack. So, we sought inspiration from our pets, and that's how the name "Heckin Good" was born. In pet language, "Heckin Good" means something super awesome. Or at least that's what our pets tell us anyway. We believe that all pets deserve to live beautiful lives, and that's why we offer free vet nurse support services, affordable supplements, and expert pet care advice that is only a couple of clicks away. We are proud of our team for successfully completing this rebranding process, and we look forward to starting this new chapter! Don't miss our latest blog post, where we delve into our rebrand and what it means for us, coming soon. In the meantime, you can check out the new and improved us at https://ow.ly/ReM450QA5cs. . . #rebrand #branding #petcare #pethealth #smallbusiness
