🌧️🐩 Happy Weekend from all of us!
A little London drizzle is no reason to stay indoors when you’ve got the right raincoat and plenty of enthusiasm for a walk. This happy Standard Poodle is making the most of the weekend, proving that rainy days can be just as fun as sunny ones.
🌱 As grass seed season is now upon us, don’t forget to check your dog’s paws, ears, and coat after walks, especially if you’ve been exploring long grass or meadows. 🌱 Catching grass seeds early can help prevent discomfort and avoid a trip to the vet.
Whatever your plans this weekend, we hope you and your pets enjoy plenty of fresh air, fun adventures, and quality time together.
❤️ Wishing all our patients and their families a wonderful weekend from your local independent veterinary team in London.

Do you know who truly owns and runs your pet’s veterinary clinic? It matters.
Take the example of this tiny patient with a very big personality. 💙🐾
This brave little Yorkshire Terrier is enjoying some well-earned cuddles with one of our nurses after orthopaedic surgery. From admission to recovery, every decision about their care was made by the people looking after them - not driven by investors, venture capitalists, or a distant corporate board.
And we’re very proud of that distinction = TRULY independent, not buts, no small print.
No investors.
No venture capital.
No corporate shareholders.
Just a dedicated team committed to doing what’s right for our patients and the families who trust us with their care.
When choosing a veterinary practice, it’s worth looking beyond the name above the door and understanding who owns it, who makes the decisions, and what values guide the care your pet receives.
For us, those values are simple:
Competence. Trust. Compassion.
Thank you for supporting independent veterinary care.
Wishing all our patients, clients, and their families a happy and relaxing weekend from everyone at the practice. ☀️🐶

☀️🐾 London is heating up this week, and our pets can struggle in the heat more than we realise.
Remember: if it feels too hot for you, it’s too hot for them too ❤️
Here are a few simple ways to keep your furry friends safe during the heatwave:
💧 Always provide fresh, cool water
🌳 Walk dogs early morning or later evening
🔥 Avoid hot pavements : if it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for paws
🏠 Keep pets in shaded, well-ventilated areas
🚫 NEVER leave pets in cars, even for a few minutes, PLEASE 🙏🏻
🧊 Cooling mats, damp towels, and frozen treats can help keep temperatures down
Watch for signs of heatstroke:
⚠️ Excessive panting
⚠️ Drooling
⚠️ Lethargy or wobbliness
⚠️ Vomiting or collapse
If you’re worried your pet may be overheating, contact your vet immediately.
Stay cool, London 🐶☀️
Wishing all our clients and their furry friends a lovely Bank Holiday weekend! Love the team 💕

‼️IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR PETS THAT TRAVEL specifically on EU ISSUED PET PASSPORTS 🇪🇺 It has frustratingly just been announced 😅 that as of THIS Thursday 22nd April, EU-issued PET PASSPORT can NO longer be used for travel from the UK to the EU, unless your PRIMARY residence is in the EU.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOUR PET:
* EU pet passports are NO longer valid for UK → EU travel (unless EU-resident)
* You will now need an Animal Health Certificate (AHC) for each trip
* The AHC must be issued by an Official Veterinarian (OV) within 1–10 days before travel
* A new certificate is required for every entry into the EU
PLANNING AHEAD:
* Book your AHC appointment early to avoid delays or stress
* First-time travellers this is not targeted at you as you need additional steps so do research or contact us for more guidance:
E.g. Rabies vaccination at least 28 days before travel
* We share your feelings of frustration at this news, so many implications, but remember we are here to help with any questions:

Even if you’ve got a visit for X-rays, you can still celebrate in style 🎉🐾
This brave birthday boy came in for his imaging and didn’t let it dampen the fun … hat on, tail wagging, and ready for plenty of treats after! 🎂💙
We’re so proud of how calm and courageous he was as he’s been through quite journey to reach this point. It’s always a joy to help keep our patients happy and comfortable… especially on their special day 🐶✨

Brave little hero! 🐾💛
This sweet golden retriever pup came in for a quick visit and handled everything like an absolute champ. Even with the need for a bandage and the famous cone of courage, he kept that big golden smile the whole time. 🐶✨
Lots of cuddles, gentle care, and extra treats from our amazing nurse in her cheerful pink scrubs made the day a little brighter. Clearly his cone game is strong. 😄🩺
Healing looks good on you, my friend love all ❤️
