DOG THEFT

24/2/2021

0 Comments

 
Huge demand for dogs during COVID lockdowns has fuelled a rise in dog thefts in Devon.
With the cost of purchasing our beloved four legged friends increasing, criminals are on
the look out to make a quick and easy buck.

Peppe’s Paws has put together the following tips for you to protect your Dog.

1. Ensure that your dog is microchipped. In fact, it is a legal requirement to have your
dog microchipped by the age of eight weeks old.

2. Take regular photographs of you and your dog from different angles in the event
you need to prove ownership. Ensure you take a photograph of any distinctive
markings.

3. Never leave your dog unattended

4. If your dog is home along, leave the radio or TV on. If you leave your dog alone in
the evening, turn the lights on so it looks like someone is at home.

5. Vary your dog walking routes and the times that you walk your dog. Criminals tend
to target dogs by looking for daily walking routines.

6. Be wary of strangers who ask several questions about your dog.

7. Refrain from walking your dog at night time alone.

In the events that this awful experience happens to you act quickly by:

  • Calling the Police to report the theft
  • Report the dog missing on the relevant microchip database
  • Use your social media accounts to post an alert and encourage friends/family to share the posts to reach a broader audience.
  • Contact local dog wardens, vets and animal shelters

The Most Commonly Stolen Dog Breeds are:

1. French Bulldog
2. Chihuahua.
3. Labradoodle
4. Staffordshire Bull Terrier
​5. German Shepherd
6. Labrador Retriever
7. Springer Spaniel
8. Siberian Husky

Fleas and ticks

29/8/2020

1 Comment

 

Fleas and Ticks are in season and it’s our four legged family members that suffer from these little critters.
  
Fleas and ticks are external parasites that can cause extreme discomfort and even serious illnesses to your pets and even humans, such as Lyme Disease. 

Luckily, fleas and ticks are easily prevented with the use of easy to administer prevention products. These products range from spot-on and spray treatments to collars.  

Checking For Ticks 
After county walks you should check your pet in the following areas for ticks.  
  • Ears 
  • Neck / Face 
  • Belly 
  • Groin/armpits 
  • Paws 

Ticks need to be removed slowly and carefully to ensure that the whole tick is removed. We recommend the use of a ‘Tick Remover’. These can be purchased online or from pet suppliers and vary in cost from £2.50 to £10.  

If you do not feel comfortable removing ticks from your pet, we recommend that you contact your local vet for advice.  
For further helpful information on Fleas and Ticks, we refer you to the following websites:
