🦷 Cracked teeth in dogs & cats are more common tha $🦷 Cracked teeth in dogs & cats are more common than you think! We often see pets come in for a dental and discover a fractured tooth that no one knew about. The tricky part? Many pets don’t show obvious signs of pain, but cracked teeth can be very uncomfortable and often lead to infection, abscesses, and the need for extraction under anaesthetic. Common causes of cracked teeth: • Chewing bones (especially cooked or weight-bearing bones) • Hard nylon/plastic chew toys • Antlers, hooves, horns • Rocks (yes… really 😅) • Fetching hard balls repeatedly How to help prevent dental fractures: ✔ Choose softer rubber toys or dental chews ✔ Avoid bones and very hard chews ✔ Supervise enthusiastic chewers ✔ Regular dental checks at the vet — cracks are often hidden at the back of the mouth Preventing a cracked tooth can mean avoiding a painful infection and an unexpected dental procedure later on. If you’re unsure whether your pets teeth are healthy, come in and we’ll happily have a look! 🐾🦷$

After yesterday attempt to take some of Murphy’s food, today he wasn’t having it. Murphy took Nicholas the Nicklin Way elf back to the North Pole.
See you next year Nicholas and I hope you don’t have to work too hard now that you will back in time to help Santa deliver the presents tonight!

Our mischievous little mate Nicholas the Nicklin Way elf has decided he’s now the official “Kennel Release Officer.” 😂🐶

Caught on video flying in like, “Don’t worry, buddy, I know a guy.”
Next thing you know, the dog’s out, the elf’s proud, and we’re questioning our entire security system. 🤦‍♀️🤣

Who gave him this much power?! 🎅✨

Nicholas the Nicklin Way elf has officially entered self-help mode!
Caught him in the waiting room reading a brochure titled “How to Stop Your Dog Barking at Santa” …

Don’t worry help is here!! Starting January we are resuming our puppy school here at Nicklin Way Vet!

Running on Monday Nights over a 4 week course. Contact us today if you have a pup aged between 9-16weeks and would like a little more help learning the basics of training and building a successful bond between you and your new addition to the family.

Consult room mystery of the day:
Who stuck 47+ post-it notes everywhere?
Clue #1: He’s 20cm tall.
Clue #2: He giggles when you shake him.
Clue #3: He’s currently sitting in a pile of mess like a gremlin. 😆

Nicholas the Nicklin Way elf has checked into the Great Barrier Reef (…aka our fish tank).
He’s already named the fish, explored to the depths and back, and says he’s “basically a marine biologist now.” Meanwhile the fish are filing noise complaints. 🌊 🐠😂

Looks like Nicholas the Nicklin Way elf has joined the cleaning crew today! 🧝‍♂️🧽✨

We caught him mid-mop, working hard (or at least posing like he is). He insists he’s “leading by example,” but the tiny puddles and suspiciously sticky floor tell a different story. 😅
At least he’s trying… sort of! 🎄💦

Nicholas the Nicklin Way elf has discovered the dog treats… and immediately turned them into his own mini firing range. 🎯🍪😅

He says he’s “training the reindeer for accuracy,” but we’re pretty sure he’s just making a mess and enjoying himself WAY too much.

We found him carefully bubble-wrapping Poppy this morning. He said he was “sending her to the North Pole because she’s the goodest of the good girls.” 😆🎄

Looks like Nicholas the Nicklin Way elf has discovered the staff birthday wall… and apparently decided it needed more artistic flair. 🎨😅

If you notice your photo suddenly sporting a moustache, eyebrows from the 80s, or a very unflattering set of teeth. He has taken creative control and he’s not accepting feedback at this time. 😂🎄
