Sometimes our pets need treatment too 🥹

This is Jolly, One of our veterinary nurses very special dog 🩷

Jolly came in after she started showing signs of PUPD (drinking and urinating more than usual). We were expecting something straightforward, like a urine infection. After further investigations revealed she had elevated calcium levels, which were causing her to drink so much.

The high calcium was traced back to an adenocarcinoma affecting her a**l gland. Yesterday, Nikki successfully removed both the tumour and the affected a**l gland.

Jolly got lots of cuddles after her surgery from the team 🩷

We’re so pleased Jolly’s surgery went well and wish her a smooth and speedy recovery 🐾💕

Quarterly, our entire clinical team comes together for dedicated learning and development opportunities, helping us continue to provide the highest standard of care for our patients.

This quarter, we were delighted to focus on wildlife care and pain management, with our Skipton Lead Nurse Sam, leading an informative session on best practice for treating injured and unwell wildlife brought into the practice 🦔 and Clinical Director Nikki leading a discussion on pain management of our hospital and surgical patients and how pain is recognised in various species.

We were also pleased to welcome Tiffany from MSD, who delivered valuable training on treatment for itchy skin conditions and how we can best support pets experiencing dermatological issues.

A huge thank you to Nikki, Sam and Tiffany for sharing their expertise with the team 👩‍💻🐾

🦆💛 A little story with a happy ending...

This brave mum duck was hit by a car while looking after her babies. Thankfully, a kind member of the public brought her and her ducklings straight to us for help.

Our vets and nurses quickly assessed her injuries to find she had a wound on her foot that needed stitches. Our Veterinary Surgeon Bianca stitched this wound while Judith our Veterinary Nurse monitored the duck throughout.  

After some much-needed care, mum duck was reunited with her babies and transferred safely to a Yorkshire Dales Wildlife Rescue to continue her recovery.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in helping this little family. Wishing mum duck a speedy recovery and many happy waddles ahead! 🦆✨.
