🐶 Say hello to Arlo!

This handsome chap came in for his vaccines and a microchip, the first big visit a puppy usually has at the vets!

He was an absolute superstar. After two weeks of staying in to allow the vaccines time to work their magic, his life outdoors can begin!

🐹it’s guinea pig awareness week!🐹

These bundles of joy may be small, but their personalities are larger than life! We want to highlight the happiness these little creatures can bring to your life, and share a few essential welfare tips to make sure they live their best lives

Companionship is key - guinea pigs are super social animals and should always live with at least one other compatible guinea pig

The vitamin C secret - just like humans guinea pigs cannot produce their own vitamin C. They need a diet rich in high quality hay. Fresh least greens and fortified pellets to stay healthy

Chew it! - their teeth never stop growing, so it’s vital to provide unlimited fresh hay to help wear down their teeth naturally and prevent painful diseases

Cozy and safe - they need plenty of hiding spaces, excellent cage ventilation, and protection from being too hot or too cold

Is your guinea pig due a check up?
From dental checks to weight checks, our team is here to support you and your little furry friends. Please call your relevant branch if you’d like to book a checkup with us!

🐢 Happy reptile awareness day!🐍

Today we are celebrating the incredible reptiles kept as pets and in the wild, and their vital role in our global ecosystems!

Despite not being an exotics specialist, we have seen our fair share of reptiles for routine appointments such as claw trimming and some of our staff even have their own!

On the left is Dinky a horsfield tortoise. He snuck his way into our nurse Jenny’s life twice, he is around 6 years old and is now microchipped so no more sneaking around!

On the right is Esio trot a Herman tortoise, he is 10+ years old! He has found a home with our nurse Meg

Both tortoises live a life of luxury, full of love and comfort!

🐶 Here’s Chase, Cleo, and Sadie!

These three sweethearts came in for their boosters and had a tour of our new Knighton building (along with some work experience with our receptionists) They were all superstars for their boosters and check ups, and wonderful visitors!

🐶 Say hello to Luna! 👀

Luna came in to see our vet Katie complaining about an irritated eye, Katie could see the problem right away 👀

Luna was admitted and then sedated so we could get a better look. Once sedated, it was clear there was a thorn poked right into the surface of Luna’s eye. Katie managed to coax the thorn to the surface and grab it with some tweezers to pull it out! 👁️

While it has left behind a small ulcer, Luna must’ve been relieved to get that out! She is now receiving treatment for the ulcer and is recovering nicely at home 🏡 🥰

🐱 Meet Gizmo!

Gizmo came in to see our vet Tash, as he had an ear that looked as though it was stuffed! Tash quickly determined this was an aural haematoma, which happens when a small blood vessel bursts and fills up the ear until it resembles a tiny cushion

First, Gizmos ear was drained leaving it a bit like a deflated balloon. Then Tash, with the help of one of our nurses Meg, stitched the two sides together. They used buttons to help keep the stitches in the ear, to keep the ear flat while it’s healing, and to stop the ear filling up with blood again. These buttons will be removed when the stitches are, they won’t be a permanent accessory for this handsome chap!

🐶 Here’s Charlie!!

Charlie the spaniel came in for a routine castration, but we didn’t realise we were hosting a total rockstar!

He completely charmed the team, especially our SVN Beth, pictured here helping him debut his naturally fabulous Mohawk! After winning everyone over and scoring some extra post op treats, this lively little man breezed through his surgery. His operation went perfectly, which means no mini rockstars in Charlie’s future!
