SKC will be organising

a Veterinary Care Seminar on 27 July, Friday, 7pm - 9pm.

I believe many dog owners will be very keen on the topics:

(1) Behavioural Medicine
Understand the complexities behind your dog's social behaviour & reasons for issues like anxiety, insecurity, excitability, aggression.

(2) Caring for Your Aged Pet
Make the life of your ageing pet more comfortable by understanding his/her changing needs interms of nutrition & exercise requirements. Learn how to recognise symptoms of common diseases in geriatric animals for early disease detection & understand how therapeutics & supplements can ease your pet thru their final years.

(3) Canine Dermatology: Allergies Affecting our Dogs - The Facts & The Fiction
Understand the causes of common skin ailments that plaque our dogs in our environment & climate, and how to prevent & treat these conditions.

Each topic is of great value to all dog owners, even cat owners will benefit, esp on the topic for aged pets. And if your dogs seem to be plaqued by recurring skin problems, hotspots, eczema etc..and you're wondering if it's environment, food, immunity .... this will be a great chance to hear from Dr Simon Quek, Animal Medical Centre. He has completed post-graduate studies in Veterinary Dermatology and in collaboration with Murdoch University Dermatology Clinic & NUS, he started Singapore's 1st Intra-Dermal Skin Testing & Immunotheraphy for allergic dogs.

So mark your calendar down for this date. More details will be provided once all is firmed up.
