Great news 🌟 for pet lovers and travellers! ✈️ The EU has announced a fantastic update as part of the 'Brexit reset deal' - the beloved pet passport scheme is making a comeback! This means your furry 🐾 friends can soon enjoy the convenience of traveling with a single document for their entire lives, as long as their Rabies vaccinations remain current. This is a wonderful improvement from the current system, where cats 🐱 and dogs 🐶 traveling from the UK to the EU need an Animal Health Certificate for each trip.

While we're eagerly waiting for more details from the government on when this change will take effect, rest assured that we'll keep you updated as soon as we know more. In the meantime, if you have travel plans to the EU with your pet, feel free to book an appointment with one of our qualified Official Veterinarians to get an animal health certificate. Here's to many happy adventures with your furry companions! 🐾🌍

Give ❤️ to your vet nurse team!

Shoutout to Emma Hoole "I would like to highlight our Senior Nurse at Burnley, Emma Hoole. Since she started her new position she has whipped us all into shape and the practice is very tidy and organised. Emma is so knowledgeable and will help out with anything she can. She's a real superstar, as long as we don't let her get hungry! "

This month highlights and spreads the word about the importance of the role of a veterinary nurse in a vet practice. Their tireless energy and dedication to pets and owners deserve some recognition – we’d be lost without them!

🐾OUR PETS! 🐾
This month we say hello to Jude the Dude!

Jude's mum is Michelle, one of our Small Animal Receptionists🥰 Here is a bit about Jude the Dude ⬇️

Jude the Dude is a Russian dwarf hamster who was brought into the Burnley surgery as a 'stray' one evening in November. He was found by staff in the bed factory across the road and had survived rat poison which had been put down in the factory and he had crossed a busy road!

It was love at first sight for me and the following morning I decided I was going to keep him and bring him home to live with me and my dogs Alfie a 2 year old border collie and Ted a 3 year old spaniel. I had to learn quickly about hamsters having never had one before and soon discovered his favourite treats are mealworms and cheddar.

The dogs were dubious about him at first but now they tend to just ignore him and go about their own business. I never knew there was so much stuff around to buy to enhance Jude's home...he now has 4 houses, a villa, a swing, a hammock and lots of other enrichment goodies in his enclosure.

He is very tame and will quite happily sit on my shoulder whilst I go about doing jobs at home. He even has a little carry bag to go in so he can come out for walks with me and the dogs when the weather is a bit better.

As soon as he hears my voice in the mornings he scurries out of his burrow and waits for me to pick him up for cuddles and of course mealworms. I'm totally besotted with him and 'love his little head off'.

Did you know that we have our own out of hours emergency service at Stanley House Vets?

This unlucky lady was brought in after hours after playing with a stick! The stick had pierced the back of her mouth, resulting in a large wound and moderate bruising. Our vet Lauren and senior night nurse Lucy gave her pain relief, then anaesthetised her to properly assess the injury.

They took contrast xrays (where contrast material is injected and shows us how deep the wound is)- fortunately there was no obvious pieces of stick stuck in the back of her mouth and no damage done to her neck or chest. After flushing and cleaning the wound, dissolvable stitches were placed in the back of her mouth. Antibiotics were given due to her having a high risk of forming an abscess at the back of her mouth.

She then had an overnight stay with us, being cared for by Lucy who made sure she was eating and comfortable on pain relief, before going home the following morning.
Her owner has let us know that she is doing very well, back to normal and eating absolutely fine! She has let us share this story to highlight the dangers of throwing sticks!

Our night service is run by our dedicated night nurses and an on call vet, who are readily available should you need us in the event of an emergency. You just need to call us on 01282 863892 and the on call nurse will triage your pet and book an appointment as needed.

🌟Veterinary Receptionist Awareness Week!🌟

No day is the same for these amazing multitaskers! Lets see what Michelle has to say about what its like working at the helm of a busy vet practice ❤️

"Having previously worked 14yrs in a very busy A&E hospital department I can safely say working here is more or less the same except we see animals and not humans.....no two days are ever the same and you never know what is going to come through the door.

As a lifelong dog-lover one of the perks of working here is seeing all my childhood favourite dogs. Being here enables me to not only see them and play with them but also to talk to the owners about the traits, personalities and generally just learning more about my favourite breeds.

Another perk is getting my beautiful Russian Dwarf hamster, Jude the Dude, who was brought into the Burnley surgery as a stray (he was found last November in some factory offices in Burnley). To say I am smitten with him is an understatement.

Out of work I love hiking with my own dogs, Ted who is a 3yr old Spaniel and Alfie my 2yr old Border Collie, my house is a madhouse at times with them, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

The team at SHV is so supportive of each other regardless of the role you are in, at the end of the day we are one team who not only work together we also socialise together. It really is a great place to work and is like being part of one big family and I feel very lucky to be a part of it".
