Would you know the signs that your dog’s ears might be bothering them? 👂🐶

Look out for:

🔄 Frequent head shaking
🐾 Repeated ear scratching or rubbing
🔴 Redness or swelling
💧 Unusual discharge
👃 An unpleasant smell
🩹 Pain or sensitivity when touched

These signs can have different causes, so avoid trying to diagnose the problem at home. Don’t insert cotton buds or use any products unless recommended by your vet.

If you notice a head tilt, loss of balance, severe pain or sudden symptoms, contact your vet as soon as possible.

Notice the signs. Protect their comfort.

Save this checklist, share it with another dog owner and speak to your vet if you notice any changes.

Ageing can bring gradual changes, but we should not automatically dismiss every change as “just old age”.

Reduced mobility, altered appetite, unusual thirst, sleep disruption or a loss of interest in familiar activities may have different causes. A veterinary assessment can help identify what is happening and whether support is needed.

You know your dog or cat’s normal behaviour best. If something feels different, make a note of when it began and discuss it with your veterinarian.

🐶🐱 Growing older deserves attentive care.
Save this list and arrange a check-up if you recognise a persistent change.

DOES YOUR DOG STRUGGLE WITH ITCHY, SENSITIVE SKIN?

Canine atopic dermatitis (CAD) is a common, year-round allergic skin condition that may affect up to 1 in 10 dogs.

Signs may include:

🐾 Constant itching, scratching or licking
🐾 Red, inflamed or irritated skin
🐾 Recurring skin or ear infections

Your dog’s skin acts as a vital protective barrier. In dogs with CAD, this barrier can become weakened, allowing moisture to escape and making the skin more vulnerable to allergens, irritants and microbial imbalance.

HOW CAN ALLERMYL SHAMPOO HELP?

Allermyl Shampoo is specially developed to support dogs with sensitive or allergy-prone skin. It does more than gently cleanse—it helps support, restore and protect the skin barrier.

Allermyl Shampoo helps to:

💧 Restore the skin’s natural protective barrier
💧 Improve moisture and hydration
💧 Reduce itching and irritation
💧 Support a healthy balance of bacteria and yeast on the skin

The result? Healthier skin, less itching and a happier, more comfortable dog.

Speak to your veterinarian if your dog shows signs of itchy or irritated skin. Use Allermyl Shampoo as directed by your veterinarian.

Community cats 🐱 are individuals living within a familiar territory, not simply a group that appears around food.

Responsible colony management requires coordination, monitoring, hygiene and veterinary involvement. It should also consider the welfare of the cats and their relationship with the surrounding community.

✅ If you find a colony, avoid making sudden changes on your own. Contact the responsible local authority or an experienced colony-management organisation.

Better understanding supports better coexistence.
Which of these facts did you already know?

Save, share and support responsible management.

The Rottweiler’s history stretches back to Roman times, when their ancestors accompanied Roman legions, driving cattle and guarding people. The breed later developed around the German town of Rottweil, from which it takes its name.

Four fascinating facts about the Rottweiler:

1️⃣ They were known as “butchers’ dogs”
Butchers in Rottweil relied on these strong, dependable dogs to drive cattle, guard property and even pull carts.

2️⃣ They are versatile working dogs
Beyond guarding, Rottweilers have worked alongside the police and security services and have also served as guide and search-and-rescue dogs.

3️⃣ They have a softer side
Despite their powerful appearance, well-socialised Rottweilers can be affectionate, playful and deeply devoted to their families.

4️⃣ They are intelligent and energetic
They learn quickly and benefit from regular physical activity, mental stimulation, early socialisation and consistent, reward-based training.

Powerful, intelligent and loyal, a historic working breed with many sides to discover. 🐾

Quick facts about the Rottweiler:

🌍 Country of origin: Germany

⚖️ Male weight: approximately 45-50 kg

⚖️ Female weight: approximately 37-42 kg

🎂 Life expectancy: 9–12 years

Holiday treats can add up for pets too, especially when their usual routine changes. 🐶🐱

Because weight gain is not always easy to notice, your veterinary team can assess both your pet’s weight and body condition.

Avoid sudden or restrictive diets. Instead, gradually return to:

🐾 Measured portions
🐾 Regular, appropriate activity
🐾 Food suited to your pet’s individual needs

Not sure where to begin? Ask your veterinarian for a weight and body condition check. Healthy habits start with one small step at a time.

Joint care is so important for dogs with mobility issues.

Supporting your dog's joints early can be part of a proactive approach to their long-term wellbeing, especially alongside healthy weight management, regular movement and veterinary check-ups.

🐱 Because every jump, stretch and playful moment matters.

Bad breath is not something to simply “get used to”. 🐶🦷

It can be one of the first signs that your dog’s oral health needs attention. Plaque, tartar and gum irritation may develop gradually, and many dogs do not show obvious discomfort at first.

A good dental routine can help support your dog’s oral hygiene and overall wellbeing: regular checks, suitable dental care products, and advice from your veterinary team.

If you notice persistent bad breath, red gums, visible tartar, drooling or changes in chewing, speak with your veterinarian.

For everyday oral care, ask your vet about Virbac’s dental chews range. 💙

Your cat’s daily diet plays an important role in their overall wellbeing 🐱💚

From choosing a complete food to adapting portions, supporting hydration and making dietary changes gradually, small feeding habits can make a big difference over time.

Every cat is different: age, activity level, body condition and health status all matter. That’s why your veterinary team is the best guide when it comes to finding the most suitable nutrition for your cat.

🐾 Because feeding well is also caring well.
Ask your veterinarian about choosing the right food for your cat
