We’re delighted to welcome a new Veterinary Surgeon to our team! 🐾

Chloe recently graduated from the University of Bristol and joins us with a passion for medicine & soft tissue surgery, while enjoying all aspects of veterinary.

During her studies, Chloe took part in a variety of fascinating placements, including a neutering clinic in Tanzania, where she helped reduce the local stray animal population. She has also gained valuable experience observing different approaches to veterinary care through placements in Hong Kong, the Netherlands & France.

Outside of work, Chloe enjoys baking and spending time outdoors, making the most of nature and sunny days. Her family share their home with a Maine C**n, a Leonberger and previously fostered guide dogs.

If you haven’t had the chance to meet Chloe yet, please join us in giving her a warm welcome in the comments below! 😁🎉

Topic: Cytology!🔬🦠

Many of you probably wonder what the vet means when they say that your pet with an ear problem needs cytology…

One of our vets, Annie, says that taking a sample on an ear is a need rather than a want, it’s super important for diagnosis so vets are able to prescribe the correct treatment to solve the problem.

Cytology can sometimes take a while for our staff, here are the steps we take:

1. Sample is taken from your pets ears and put onto a microscope slide.
2. Slides are heated to fix the sample to a slide.
3. Slides are then dipped into 3 liquids, fixative, eosinopholic, basophilic. This is so we can find results efficiently.
4. Rinse off excess stain from liquids as they are fluorescent blue, pink and purple.
5. Slides are left to dry.
6. Slides are put under the microscope and one of our staff members will look for a result!

We have had a stray female dog brought in to us, found wandering in the rain on ashcott road, likely spooked by the thunder.

Unfortunately she has no identification collar & microchip is not up to date. The practice will close at 7pm today, she will be safe here overnight.

Please contact us if you believe she might be your dog, proof of ownership will be required on collection.

⚠️Hot Weather Safety for Dogs ⚠️

With temperatures rising, it’s important to help keep our pets safe from heat-related illnesses.

🌡️Avoid Walking During the Hottest Part of the Day
Do not walk your dog when temperatures are high, regardless of the time of day. Hot pavements can cause painful burns to your dog’s paws, and even a short walk can put your dog at risk of heat exhaustion or heatstroke. Stick to early morning or late evening walks when it is coolest and always carry fresh water with you.

🐾 The 5 Second Pavement Test
If you can’t comfortably hold the back of your hand on the pavement for more than 5 seconds, it’s too hot for your dog’s paws. Try to leave walks until the early morning or later in the evening when temperatures are cooler, and always take water with you so your dog can stay hydrated.

🚗 Never Leave Your Dog in a Parked Car
Even with the windows slightly open or the car parked in the shade, temperatures inside a vehicle can soar to dangerous levels very quickly, reaching up to 49 degrees on a warm day.

If you’re travelling with your dog:
✅ Ensure they have access to shade
✅ Use window shades where possible
✅ Offer water regularly
✅ Keep the car cool and well ventilated

Remember: If the car feels too hot for you, it’s too hot for your dog.

If you notice any of the symptoms from the picture, move your dog to a cool area, offer small amounts of water, and contact your vet immediately.

Please help us spread the word and keep our pets safe this summer. ❤️🐾

June is professional wellness month⭐️

This month, we’re celebrating the incredible veterinary professionals who dedicate their time and care to animals every day.

A reminder to all veterinary teams, your wellbeing matters too. Taking time to rest, recharge, and seek support is essential for both personal and professional wellbeing.

Behind every appointment, emergency, and difficult conversation is a person doing their best, sometimes carrying more than you can see.

Thank you for everything you do!

Always remember to be kind to your vet staff💕

The lovely Woody attended his 10 day post op check appointment this morning after having a dental procedure last week because of a wobbly tooth.

He even came with an additional comfort toy he chose from the Pets At Home selection. Mum couldn’t say no to Mr Sweetface!🥹

He is pleased to know that he’s all healed and can go back to his normal routine🥰

📣Announcing the first ever National SQP Week!

From the 5th to the 12th of June, we are nationally celebrating the vital role of Suitably Qualified Persons (SQPs). They too have the responsibility of protecting the health and wellbeing of pets, horses, livestock and birds across the UK.

SQPs are qualified professionals who can prescibe, dispense and supply certain animal medicines and provide essential guidance to owners, thus ensuring animals get the right treatments and ensuring owners know how to administer them safelt and responsibly. As a nation of animal lovers, this is a role that rightly deserves to be celebrated for the positive impact it had on animal welfare.

We have two of our own SQPs at the practice, Kieran RVN and Charmaine, Receptionist.💚

Join us as we shine a spotlight on their expertise and the difference they make.
