Viking vets and running go hand in hand it seems. Next up several of the Viking team are going to be doing the Race for Life. This takes place on the Clifton Downs on the 21st of June to raise money for Cancer Research. Our fundraising link is below and any donations will be greatly appreciated.

*NEW TEMPORARY TRAFFIC LIGHTS*
We have just discovered temporary 3-way traffic lights at the mini roundabout on Station Road, outside the Henbury Lodge Hotel. They will apparently be there for approximately a week, for emergency electricity works. Please allow extra time to get to your appointments. Thank you!

☀️ Hot Weather ☀️

All the upcoming weather forecasts say that this bank holiday weekend is going to be getting very toasty, potentially reaching highs of 33 degrees. It is great that we are finally having a nice hot few days but please do remember to be cautious with our furry friends. The high temperatures can be dangerous to our pets with certain breeds (such as brachycephalic dogs) being more at risk than others.

Please do ensure that they always have plenty of water available, that the hottest parts of the day are avoided, and be careful with walking your dogs on hot pavements and leaving them inside cars.

Heatstroke signs include panting, confusion, trembling and vomiting. If you are concerned about any of this please call us on 0117 950 5888. We are open normally Saturday morning, then closed for the bank holiday up until Tuesday. If you have any concerns during this time please call our out of hours service on 01454 275000.

We hope you all have a lovely bank holiday weekend!

They did it!!!

We would all like to say a huge congratulations to the Viking Runners! Federica, Anna, Georgia, Sophia and Josh all did an amazing job and were successful in completing the Bristol 10k. Not only were they all able to complete the race, they did so while raising a fantastic £795 for charity. Thank you to everyone for cheering them along on the day, and thank you so much for donating all in support of Cancer Research UK. This is a cause very dear to our hearts so thank you from the entire Viking team to everyone who has donated. Did I hear someone mention doing the half marathon instead next year?...

Viking Runners!

The race itself is on Sunday with us all taking part in the yellow wave if anyone is around to cheer us on. Here we have Sophia and Federica looking fabulous running the 10k last year. Lets hope we are all equally as smiley this year!

We shall all be wearing the Viking purple tops and hopefully the Viking helmets will remain on for the full duration of the race with it being a bit cooler this year. Thank you to everyone who has donated for our chosen charity Cancer Research UK. We have managed to reach our target with just three days to go to the Bristol 10k. Our fundraising page is still open for anyone else who has not yet donated. Thank you again to everyone. Love, the Viking team x

Viking Runners Week 3

It was a beautiful sunny day on Tuesday and our enthusiastic vet Federica suggested we do our first 10k. It may have taken some time but after two circuits of the downs all of the Viking Runners were successful. This was very well needed to prepare us as the official race is now just over a week away, and this was the first time some of us has passed the 7k mark. The competition within the practice is heating up as well with some of the racers being more competitive than others to achieve the fastest time.

Thank you so far to everyone who has already donated! We are so grateful and we are already nearly at our target of £500. Any donation will be greatly appreciated.

Viking Runners Training Week 2

This week Federica, Josh, Sophia and Anna have been preparing for the Bristol 10k run by exploring all the beautiful sights that Blaise has got to offer. A relaxed 5k run turned into a slightly more tiring 8k due to a route mishap but everyone was successful in running it. Georgia was unable to join us this week but she did run a half marathon a few weeks ago so we did let her off.

Thank you to everyone for all your donations and words of encouragement so far! They have been greatly appreciated! Our funding page is open and we have QR codes on display in reception for anyone who is happy to pop down.

Viking Runners 2026 🏆

The Viking Runners are back again to take part in the Bristol 10k on the 10th May. Last year they raised an amazing £795 for Cancer Research UK. This year Federica, Georgia, Sophia and Anna are all getting there running shoes and Viking helmets ready to do this all over again, with new addition Josh trying to keep up with them all. This will be his first time running anything over five metres so the rest of the team have been very encouraging and getting all the practice in over the last few months.

This is a cause that is very dear to all of our hearts so any donations will be greatly appreciated. We have set up a page for this (link below), and we will be posting updates of our progress as we get closer to the big run.
