🚜🐴 A lovely day at the East Kent Ploughing Match! 🌾

We had such a wonderful time at the East Kent Ploughing Match — catching up with familiar faces, meeting new people, and enjoying a fantastic day celebrating the farming and equestrian community.

It was great to be out and about, chatting with local horse owners and farmers and soaking up the atmosphere. A big thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello! 💚

We’re already looking forward to the next one! 🐎🌾

🌡️💊Summer Medication Reminder 🌡️💊

With the warmer weather and holiday season upon us, it's worth taking a few moments to check the following
📋Are you keeping your medications at the correct temperature? Medications have a safe range of temperatures that they can be kept at. If they get too hot, it may reduce their efficacy.
📋Do you have enough medication - our current fulfilment times for prescriptions/medications can be up to 48 hours. Make sure you order in good time.
📋Do your horses have access to clean and fresh water? They will drink more during these higher temp spells

If you have any concerns, please call the office on 📞 01303 768530 or email 📧[email protected] we are here to help!

With temperatures set to rise this week we would just like to take the opportunity to remind clients below about advice and precautions to be taken through this week of sunshine ☀️

If you have any concerns about your horse or your appointment, please do call 01303 768530 to discuss

We hope you all have a warm and safe week! 💙

☀️ Heatwave update ☀️

🔥With the current heatwave warnings in place across the South of the UK this week, we wanted to update our clients on how we will be approaching appointments over the coming days.
Our motto is “Professional Service, Personalised Care” and that means recognising that every horse, owner and situation is different. Rather than taking a blanket approach, we will be assessing each case individually to ensure the welfare of both horses and people remains our priority.

📞 If you have an appointment booked and would feel more comfortable postponing it until temperatures ease, we completely understand. Please contact the office on 01342 300008 and we will be happy to discuss the options with you.

Similarly, there may be occasions where we contact clients directly if we feel an appointment or procedure is not appropriate to carry out in the forecast conditions. We will endeavour to give as much notice as possible should we need to rearrange an appointment. We will also not be performing any non-essential general anaesthetics during this period.

🌡️ We would encourage everyone to think carefully about their horses during the hottest parts of the day. Where possible, please avoid riding or travelling during peak temperatures, heat stroke can be fatal for both horses and riders and planning activities for the cooler morning or evening hours is the safest option.

🙏🏻 Finally, a gentle reminder to please be kind to your veterinary team. Our Vets and Nurses will be working throughout the heat to care for your horses and may occasionally need a few extra moments to cool down, rehydrate and continue working safely.
Thank you for your understanding and support. Please stay safe, keep cool and do get in touch if you have concerns about your horse during the hot weather.
