We had a very special patient visit us recently… and she already has a close connection to the team 💛

Rona, the gorgeous new puppy belonging to Francis, one of our vets, came in for her very first health check this week! From cuddles and treats to lots of fuss from the team, she took her first vet visit in her stride 🩺✨

She’ll be back later this month for her first vaccination, but judging by this photo… being adorable all day is clearly exhausting 😴🐶

Please join us in giving Rona a very warm welcome to the Rowan family 🐾

. Veterinary nursing is a career built on care but it can also be emotionally challenging.

This week, we’re recognising the importance of mental health within the profession. Our nurses support pets and their owners through both happy and difficult times, and that emotional load is significant.

We’re committed to supporting the wellbeing of our team—because looking after those who care for your pets matters.

Let’s take a moment to acknowledge the strength and resilience of veterinary nurses 💙

At this time of year, we start to notice lots of posts circulating social media regarding rapeseed; these posts are shared extensively and can understandably worry many dog owners. The posts usually state that rapeseed is highly poisonous to dogs, and can cause signs including haemolytic anaemia, blindness, damaged nervous system, digestive disorders and breathing problems.

The signs mentioned are typically only seen in grazing animals, and most dogs actually remain asymptomatic after exposure to rapeseed. Dogs can develop gastrointestinal upset if they have ingested some of the plant, and there have been reports of skin reactions which resemble burns, but this is extremely rare and does not happen to every dog which comes into contact with it.
