Major the German Shepherd has been building his confidence at the vets during his social visits and he’s doing really well 🐾

Today he enjoyed some squeezey treats, had a little play with a tennis ball, and happily accepted some gentle strokes. It’s lovely to see him becoming more relaxed and confident with each visit 💙

Well done, Major!

🌟 Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month 🌟

This month we’re celebrating the incredible work of our veterinary nurses and the vital role they play in caring for our patients every single day. 💙

We’re proud to shine a spotlight on our amazing full-time Registered Veterinary Nurses, Sophie and Eloise.

Both Sophie and Eloise qualified in 2015 and have been dedicated to veterinary practice for over 12 years, bringing a huge amount of experience, skill, and compassion to our team and patients alike. 🐾

Veterinary nurses do so much behind the scenes and on the front line of patient care, including:

✨ Monitoring anaesthetics (GA)
✨ Taking blood samples
✨ Placing IV catheters
✨ Taking X-rays
✨ Providing inpatient care
✨ Running nurse clinics

Their work is essential in ensuring every patient receives the highest standard of care, from admission through to recovery.

We are incredibly grateful for everything Sophie and Eloise do and for the difference they make to our patients and clients every day. 💙🐶🐱

Do you travel with your pet? ✈️🐾🏖️🌊☀️🚗

As many of you will know, pet travel rules changed following Brexit.

As of last week on the 22nd April 2026, there has been a further government update. Pets travelling from the UK can no longer enter EU countries using an EU pet passport.

➡️ All pets must now travel with a valid Animal Health Certificate (AHC) issued by an official veterinarian.

If you have upcoming travel plans and were intending to use an EU passport, please ensure you:
✔️ Take note of this change
✔️ Book an appointment in advance for an AHC

If you have any questions then please give us a call ☺️
