Very excited that Amanda will be working with us at The Veterinary Wellness Centre ♥️

So I can now share with you that I will be working with the lovely Dr Miriam Main aka Botanical Veterinary Care at her team at her brand new purpose built practice over at new Craighall from the start of November. (they open on Halloween 👻👻) I will be there on Wednesday for appts, a great addition to what i can offer canine clients. I know Gidey is very excited and is going to come try out the new underwater treadmill.❤️

I may live in a city now, but I'm a country girl at heart! So I very much enjoyed a lovely drive out to the Scottish Borders today to see a beautiful patient. I had to clear the road of a traffic jam though 🐏!

I couldn't help but admire the fields absolutely full of beautiful Meadowsweet "Queen of the Meadow" (Filipendula ulmaria). This herb has excellent anti-inflammatory effects, particularly on guts and joints. For gastritis, gastric reflux, IBS, ulcers, or any other "sensitive tummy" this beautiful local Scottish herb works wonders. It is especially useful for dogs who would benefit from an NSAID drug, but have vomiting with it - the salicylates in Meadowsweet help joints and settle the tummy. This is one of the ways using whole herbs can sometimes be better than isolating single "active" chemicals (ie drugs).

Thirteen years ago I had a fab day at McEwan Hall and joined this awesome, beautiful and terrifying profession. I had a dream first job - a charity vet clinic in the paradise of the Cook Islands. Since then I have experienced pretty much every type of practice there is, and had some unforgettable experiences. Now is time to take all of that experience and create something truly beautiful

This morning, after a busy 15 hour night shift, I drove straight over the Forth Road Bridge to deliver this wee chap to a hedgehog rescue centre, after he was attacked by a seagull last night. He is going to need some TLC and physio now that pain relief and antibiotics are taken care of. Fingers crossed he does well!

Veterinary medicine is a vocation more than just a job.... Putting lots of love into every patient can have an emotional, physical and mental toll. Luckily I have a day to rest and recover and enjoy time with my family now - the children will be very excited to see hoglet photos!

Acupuncture causes the release of beta-endorphins, which are powerful opiates produced by our own bodies. Some patients become visibly drowsy, totally relaxed, and seem very happy about it!
Gorgeous Hannah is a great example of a "good responder". At the start of a session she is alert and quivering with typical whippety nervous energy, and by the end she is cuddled on the sofa with her teddy getting drowsy!

I'm enjoying a delicious Ginkgo tincture with tonic (and a sweet geranium leaf), as inspired by excellent herbal vet Anna, a teacher on Longview Veterinary Services herbal course.

As well as being delicious (I may never need gin again!), this is a perfect accompaniment to dinner as a bitter herb. Bitters are the "on" switch to the digestive tract and improve digestion by stimulating the body's digestive juices. Ginkgo also contains potent antioxidants and improves cognitive function!

This stunning new patient enjoyed chilling out while me and his mum had a good chat!

Jock is a beautiful, bouncy Dobie with nothing really "wrong" with him, but his mum wanted to make sure he was getting the very best in terms of exercise, nutrition, and supplements. He leads a very mentally and physically active lifestyle, and has regular physio sessions with

What a lucky boy to receive so much love and thoughtful care! He was a perfect gent for his exam, too.
