⭐️ Patient of the Week – RUSTY ⭐️

Last Friday, we had the pleasure of seeing Rusty after an adventurous run at home took an unexpected turn! 🐾

Rusty had managed to get a piece of spiny palm lodged in his paw, leaving him a little sore and uncomfortable. After receiving some local anaesthetic and pain relief, Dr Candace and our team carefully removed the pesky culprit.

We're happy to report that Rusty was soon back to his usual tail-wagging, happy self! 🐶💙

Well done, Rusty, for being such a brave patient, and thank you to his owner for bringing him in promptly.
