This autumn we have seen an increase in cases of Haemonchus (Barber's Pole Worm) 🐑🪱

Unlike other gut worms, Haemonchus causes internal blood loss rather than scouring.

Signs to watch for 🔎
Pale gums
Bottle jaw (Fluid swelling under the jaw)
Weight loss
Sudden deaths in severe cases

Our OvaCyte machine allows us to carry out worm egg counts and Haemonchus specification 🔬

If you're concerned about Haemonchus on your flock, speak to a member of the farm team.

The certificates have arrived, and we’ve got some lovely feedback to share…

Our Dalston, Newbiggin and Tarn practices have received their accreditation certificates through the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) Practice Standards Scheme 🙌

This means we’ve chosen to be independently assessed against RCVS standards and there’s a lot of work behind those certificates. Each practice underwent a thorough inspection lasting two to three days, checking everything from how we store and manage medicines and stock to our equipment, facilities and health and safety procedures.

And there were some lovely comments about the work happening across our practices:
💚 Dalston
Our welcoming waiting room, wellbeing garden and support for the team all received praise. The assessor also described the practice as “a leading light for the profession” for its sustainability work!
💚 Newbiggin
Our dedicated teams and wide range of services were recognised, with particular praise for the spotless, well-equipped equine facilities and the care taken to protect both patients and staff.
💚 Tarn
The assessor highlighted the great attention to detail in our farm health plans, our clean and tidy premises, and the specialist interest in goats that allows us to support clients from further afield too.

There’s so much work that goes on behind the scenes to care for your animals, so it’s brilliant to see our teams’ efforts recognised.

A big thank you to everyone across all three practices. There's so much to be proud of! 👏
