Jo and Amelia had a lovely afternoon yesterday at St Teath fun dog show.
It was great to see so many beautiful dogs which made the job of judging the winners very difficult.
Ultimately the best in show went to the gorgeous Grace the Labrador.
Huge congratulations to everyone for organising a brilliant event and well done to everyone that entered, you are all winners in our eyes.

We are aware of a baby seagull on the high street near the molesworth. It has been checked over by us and is in good health.

The mum and dad are nearby and keeping an eye on it so please give it space.
Sometimes fledglings are just need a few days when they leave the nest to learn to fly.

Rest assured we are keeping a watchful eye on it.

Thank you x

New vet Jo has officially passed her VetGDP!!

VetGDP is a program that all new graduates spend another 12-18 months working on. Building on skills and responsibilities and helping them grow in confidence and competence.

So of course the Wave Vets crew celebrated in true Cornish style… **fish and chips for lunch** 🐟🍟

We’re all incredibly proud of her hard work, dedication, and the brilliant vet she’s growing into.

Huge congratulations to Jo — here’s to her next chapter and many more team celebrations ahead 🎉👏

🎉 Wave Vets Turns 6 This Weekend! 🎉

And honestly… what do you get a clinic that has everything? A new stethoscope? Another bucket? 🤔 Tempting.

But this year, we think we’ve absolutely nailed it.

Say hello to our brand‑new mural of the practice wonder‑dog himself — Blu — now proudly splashed across our wall in full technicolour glory.

Meanwhile, some of our lovely neighbouring practices are spending eye‑watering amounts exhibiting at the Royal Cornwall Show… and we totally get it — big tents, big banners, big budgets.
We went for big dog on a big wall instead. Much more our vibe.😂

So if you find yourself stuck in the queue for the show this week, swing by Wadebridge town centre and give us a friendly toot as you pass.
We’re just opposite the Saltbox — you literally can’t miss us… obviously.

Here’s to six years of Wave Vets, Blu, and doing things our own colourful way. 💙🐾🐶💚🌊

Massive thank you to Nathan Jaksta Art for spending 3 days in the Cornish mizzle.

we have had a cat bought in from the Whitecross area of Wadebridge that is quite poorly. No collar or chip.
If you are missing a cat please get in touch.

🐾 Bella’s Beat 🫀

Bella, the mischievous Patterdale cross belonging to our Nurse/Athlete Ruth, came in last week for her own heart check-up, just before Ruth challenged her own heart by taking on a half marathon for charity! 🏃‍♀️❤️

Last year, Harrison, who loves a ❤️ so much he did an extra qualification, diagnosed Bella with mitral valve disease with our fancy ultrasound scanner.

Mitral valve disease is a heart problem that damages one of the heart’s valves.

Thanks to early diagnosis and treatment, Bella’s condition has remained stable with medication helping to spot the progression of her disease. 💊🐶

Keeping Bella’s heart beating strong means she can keep up with Ruth! 💪 🐕‍🦺💨
