Happy even whilst sedated!
Bramble was so happy that even after having hips and elbows x-rayed and before being reversed from sedation the tail was still in full working order 😂
Such a wonderful patient 🥰🐾

A well deserved cuddle from Mum after being a very brave girl for hipscoring today.
Such a beautiful kind face and a temperament to match.

We love the variety of breeds we get to work with!
Our last session we had the pleasure of meeting some truly lovely dogs.
A very cute Finnish Lapphund
Two very cheeky Flat Coat Retrievers
Two beautiful Bracco Italiano’s who wanted to be on my lap for cuddles the whole time.
(All photos are just after sedation so may not be these lovely dogs at their photo best)

BVA CHS at LVS!
Michelle was at London Vet Show last week and got to finally meet Emily from Canine Health Schemes and catch up on all things hip and elbow scoring.
The stand was celebrating 60 years since launching the hip Dysplasia scheme and there was a quiz for vets and vet nurses attending to match hip X-rays to the dog breed.
A fun challenge!
An amazing conference meeting lots of amazing people and learning more about all things to do with lameness & musculoskeletal disease in dogs as part of the mandatory 35hrs of CPD learning required each year for vets.

Another beautiful example of a breed we don’t have the pleasure of seeing everyday.
Inka was a brilliant patient for her sedation and hip and elbow scoring too.
Does anyone know what breed she is?

Days like these, where we meet such special dogs, are why we love what we do!
Today this gentle giant came with his Golden Retriever friend who looked so small by comparison.
Our Great Dane friend weighed more than any of us and definitely took a few of us to lift!
Two beautiful dogs 🐕 ❤️🐾
