💙🩷 VET DAY 🩷💙

A trip to Suirside Veterinary Clinic today for EU Pet Passports and rabies vaccinations. 🩺🐾

Another little milestone ticked off for the pups. ❤️

Thinking of travelling with your dog in the future? It is worth getting passports and vaccinations organised early, so you are not caught out by waiting periods or paperwork once your trip is planned. ✈️🐾
