It’s been a busy old time here at Regency, with lots of poorly pets and too many grass seeds!

But don’t worry, we’ve managed to squeeze in meeting some VERY cute puppies and kittens too. 😍

We’re on the lookout for an additional vet for our dream team…

We’re a proudly independent practice who strive to provide exceptional client and patient experience. We love working to a gold standard and have fantastic lab, x-ray and ultrasound equipment as well as separate dog and cat waiting areas and wards.

If you’re looking for a job where you have time to spend with clients to build those long-term relationships, have clinical freedom and work as part of a team who truly care about each other and their patients, please get in touch.

We’re looking for someone with at least two years experience and are offering a full-time role (four day week plus shared Saturday mornings). Salary is DOE and other perks are provided.

If you’re interested please get in touch via email to discuss further, [email protected]

As ever, there are roadworks everywhere in Cheltenham!

We just wanted to let you know that Leckhampton Road will be shut from the Bath Road/Shurdington Road Island up to Fairfield Park Road.

This will be between 09.00-15.00 from tomorrow until Monday.

We are still accessible off Leckhampton Road down the normal Naunton Lane, but you may need to follow diversions to reach the Leckhampton Road. Access is as normal from the Old Bath Road.

We are very lucky to have amazing clients, and two clients who are very dear to us are organising a charity event in aid of Rushton Dog Rescue. If you’re interested please get in touch using the QR code.

If anyone has any food or toys they’d be willing to donate we are collecting items for them this week at the practice. 🩷

Last month was Vet Nurse Awareness Month so one of our nurses, Summer, has put together a video diary of a typical day for a Vet Nurse here at Regency. This is just a snapshot of some of the amazing things our Nurses can do 🤩

We can't quite believe it, but this week we've been open a year!
Thank you so much to all of our lovely clients and patients who have made this year fly by. We are loving seeing you all and can't wait to see what the next year brings.
If you want to pop in on Saturday morning we have cakes for all in our reception. Have a lovely bank holiday!
Love the whole Regency Vets Team x

With this lovely weather we're already hearing about Adders being spotted up on Cleeve and Leckhampton Hills. Check out our post from last year about Adder bites in dogs 🐍

Leading up to the bank holiday, we wanted to remind people that adders might be enjoying the sunshine this weekend too.

Adders are the only native venomous snakes we have here in the UK. You can recognise them by the zigzag pattern along their back.

They enjoy the sunshine and are most commonly found basking on hillsides and the edges of woodland.

We tend so see a few cases of adder bites in dogs through the spring and summer in Gloucestershire. Sadly, as dogs are inquisitive they can be prone to bites when adders are unintentionally disturbed.

If your dog is bitten please take them to your vet immediately. It is recommended to carry them to reduce the spread of the toxin through the body, if possible applying cool water to the bite will reduce swelling.

Once at the vets we will support your dog providing fluids to maintain circulation, pain relief and sometimes steroids, antibiotics and anti-venom if required.

The signs can vary from just having swelling around the bite, lameness, pain, becoming wobbly, to developing collapse, organ complications and shock. Luckily most cases when treated respond well and survive.

If you have any concerns, don't hesitate to get in touch. Have a wonderful bank holiday!

Hudson the Border Collie came in to see us earlier this week because he had been drooling and off food after his owners saw him playing in the garden with a Bamboo cane.

We couldn't see anything in his mouth on examination but he was uncomfortable when we touched his neck, so we admitted him and gave him an anaesthetic to have a better look.

Once asleep, we found a bit of stick lodged right at the back of his mouth! We were able to remove it and flush the wound clean. He's recovering really well and back to his normal self!

Lots of dogs are keen on playing with or chewing sticks but they can cause serious infections and pain if not picked up as early as in Hudson's case.

We know it's easier said than done but try to stop your dogs from playing with sticks if at all possible!

Look at how perfectly Wesley is waiting for his treat!

He was amazing at his final vaccination, he didn't even notice the injection thanks to the liver paste he was snuffling.

Please make sure you get your puppies vaccinated and fully protected, there have been some infectious cases confirmed in Cheltenham over the last few weeks. 😔
