Happy Howl’oween everyone!!

If you grew up in the 90’s, chances are, you’ll have a box of Ty Beanie Babies in the attic somewhere!

Our awesome RVN, Amanda, woke up this morning to find that hers had come to life in the night & have taken over her house!! Thankfully, they’re very cute, but who knows what spooky Halloween mischief they’ll get up to!!

Show us your Halloween ready pets in the comments below🎃👻🐾

Is there anything better than a good old-fashioned puppy cuddle? We didn't think so!

Say hello to Haggis, the 9-week-old Boxer puppy who stole every single heart during his very first vet visit with us earlier this week!

Little Haggis arrived on a big mission: helping heal his pawrents’ hearts after the sad loss of his big brother, Paddy, a couple of months ago. Paddy was such a special boy, leaving some seriously big paws to fill - but Haggis is already taking it all in his stride (and spreading so much joy while doing so)!

This happy, sociable little man spent his visit being passed around, charming the entire team, and getting snuggled within an inch of his life.

We’re already so in love with you, Haggis - we can't wait to watch you grow up, handsome boy🥰🐶

What an absolute blast at this year’s Howl-aween Barket at Broughty Ferry Castle!

To say we got a little carried away competing for the "Best Dressed Stallholder" title would be the understatement of the spooky season… 10 points if you can crack the code on our costumes AND spot the sneaky message we were sending out to dog parents! 🕵️‍♀️🐕💬

We had the best time catching up with our fellow stallholders and meeting so many incredible pup pals (plus seeing a few familiar paws, too!).

The hardest mission of the day? Judging the 'Golden Oldie' category in the dog show! Talk about impossible - every single senior dog was an absolute champion in our eyes, and yes, we did want to take them all home with us.

Huge thanks to the amazing organisers for having us back! Next year’s outfit planning starts… NOW👻🎉🥰🐾

Behind the scenes, our Registered Veterinary Nurses (RVNs) are constantly expanding their skills to ensure your pets receive the very best care.

Several members of our nursing team have taken on additional training under Schedule 3 of the Veterinary Surgeons Act. This advanced qualification allows our qualified RVNs to perform minor surgical procedures and medical treatments under veterinary direction - enhancing their professional development while giving our patients even smoother more seamless care.

A perfect example? Meet Jagger, the gorgeous Pug!
Jagger came in to see us recently for a dental procedure and, while he was comfortably under anaesthesia, Dionne, one of our Schedule 3 qualified RVNs, was able to remove a small lump from his chest. Dionne took it all completely in her stride, performing the procedure smoothly before showering Jagger with plenty of post-surgery cuddles and TLC!

We are so proud of our nursing team’s dedication to continuous learning and high standards of care.

Wishing you a speedy recovery handsome Jagger🥰🐾

Did you know that we offer laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery in our Arbroath practice?

Since introducing these advanced procedures earlier this year, we’ve had fantastic uptake & feedback from clients. We love seeing how quickly our patients bounce back after surgery!

If your dog is due to be spayed, a keyhole spay offers a modern, minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgery.

Why choose a laparoscopic spay for your pet?
🐾 Less Pain & Discomfort: Smaller incisions mean significantly less post-operative pain for your dog
🐾 Faster Recovery: Pets are usually back to their happy, playful selves in a fraction of the time
🐾 Smaller Scars: Instead of a single, larger surgical site, keyhole surgery uses just 2–3 tiny keyhole entries
🐾 Reduced Risk of Complications: Precision equipment gives our veterinary team a clearer view while lowering the risk of infection or wound breakdown

Keyhole surgery is especially advantageous for young, energetic dogs who can be difficult to keep rested for 10-14 days post-surgery.

Want to find out if keyhole surgery is right for your dog?
Give our our team a call on 01382 549600 or send us a PetsApp/email - we’d be delighted to answer your questions and guide you through the process!

Meet Steel, the handsome, 14-years-young Parson Russell Terrier, proving that age is just a number!

Steel sees our vet, Sally, for acupuncture to manage back pain and shoulder tension. He absolute loves his sessions - usually sitting right on Sally's feet while soaking up the needles and the attention that comes with them!

Thanks to his routine treatments, his mobility has transformed so much that he's back to his old cheeky terrier shenanigans that his owner worried were long gone. Transformations like these & seeing our patients happy again really does bring us so much joy!

Could your pet benefit from acupuncture? It’s a gentle, highly effective therapy for pets dealing with:-
🐾Chronic pain (arthritis or spondylosis)
🐾Post-surgery recovery
🐾Acute injuries or muscle tension

What to Expect During a Session:-
🐾Initial Consultation: A comprehensive 30-minute assessment to tailor a treatment plan specific to your pet.
🐾Follow-Ups: Quick, comfortable 15-minute appointments.

Routine:-
🐾We typically start with weekly sessions for 4 weeks, followed by a progress review.
Treatments are performed directly by our Western Veterinary Acupuncture Group (WVAG) trained vet, Sally. Sessions are calm, relaxing, and completely stress-free—many patients get so cozy they actually nod off!

How It Works:-
🐾The tiny, virtually painless needles stimulate nerve pathways, increase blood flow, and trigger the release of natural endorphins to reduce pain and accelerate healing naturally.

Ready to help your companion feel like a puppy/kitten again? Give us a call today to learn more and book their assessment🐾🥰

Another year, another fantastic day at Paws at the Palace!

Our team met lots of wonderful dogs, enjoyed chatting to their lovely owners, gave out lots of advice, carried out free vet checks, stepped in when emergency care was needed, and played some fun but educational games with both the kids & the big kids!

We enjoyed catching up with our fellow stall holders & other local businesses, particularly our friends at Springer Rescue for Scotland & the wonderful team from Almond Vet Care , another local, independent practice!

Vet Fraser, SVN Lizzie, and Assistant Manager Lori were joined by 11-year-old dog lover Isla, who took on the vital role of Chief Goodie Bag Dispenser—easily the most important job for keeping tails wagging!

A massive thank you to Scone Palace for hosting such a brilliant event. We already can't wait for the next one 🏰🐾

Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day🌈🐾

To the pets who changed our lives, and left paw prints all over our hearts that no amount of time could never erase.

Today, on Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day, we remember the ones we still look for in their favourite spot, the ones who's names still make us smile and fill our hearts with warmth, and the ones we would give anything to have one more ordinary day with.

No amount of time with them will ever be enough and if love alone could have saved them, they'd have lived forever. Their lives mattered, their love mattered, and they are still deeply missed.

Let's use the comments to honour those we have loved and lost. Share a picture, their name, and what you loved most about them below💛🌈
