πŸ’¬ Introducing Our Brand New WhatsApp Drug Order System πŸ’¬

We are super excited to announce after a few months of trailing we are now up and running with out WhatsApp ordering line.

You can now place your order anytime day or night, so no forgetting those drug orders!

This phone is only monitored during our opening hours, and drug orders will also only be actioned during opening times. For example if you message the WhatsApp on a Sunday your drug order will begin to be processed on the Monday and usually if we have it in it can be collected on the same day!

As usual the vets will contact you if your ordering any antibiotics that need to be authorised.

We will also let you know once we’ve received your order and when it’s ready to collect.

❌ Please note this line is for drug ordering only, do not contact this line in a emergency or to book appointments

πŸ’‰ πŸ‘ **Pre-Tupping Bloods** πŸ‘ πŸ’‰

With the prolonged dry weather this summer and forage shortages potentially compromising trace element intakes, we advise sheep farmers to blood sample their ewes and rams prior to tupping this autumn. The common trace element deficiencies that can affect breeding/fertility include:

🟠 Copper ( shortages can lead to swayback)
πŸ”΅ Cobolt ( shortage can lead to weak lambs)
βšͺ️ Selenium ( shortages is ewes can lead to white muscle disease in lambs)
🟒 Iodine ( shortages can cause abortion, and poor libido in rams)

Please contact the practice (01777 703663) if you wish to know more about Trace element’s, and available services we can offer this autumn.
