Meet Comet!!! Comet is an African Spurred Tortoise who is only 4 years old!
His family bought him in today to be weighed to see how much he’s grown, can anyone guess how much he weighed today?!

He was an absolute delight to meet 🐢💙

( We love that he walked himself into the consulting room!)

p.s he is not registered with us as we are definitely not tortoise experts, but we wanted to share how amazing he was 🥹

🐝 World Bee Day 🐝

World Bee Day is celebrated on 20th May each year, marking the birthday of Anton Janša, a pioneer of modern beekeeping. The event is designated by the United Nations to raise global awareness of the importance of bees and all pollinators. 🌺 🍯 🌸 🌼

Below is a picture of Jane in her beekeeping suit, Jane has worked for The Bridge Vet Clinic since 2011. She loves all aspects of Veterinary and has a keen interest in Cardiology. She loves to bake cakes and keeps us all laughing! ❤️ 🌟

Jane - “The place you keep bees is called an apiary and I have two hives in my apiary with between 30,000 to 60,000 bees in each hive. I started bee keeping in 2022 so this is my 4th season.”

This is camera shy Woody 🙈
Woody was incredibly brave last week and at his first POC after his dental!

Dental disease doesn’t just affect older cats — cats of any age can be affected.
Bad breath, drooling, difficulty eating, or red gums can all be signs something isn’t quite right - or knowing our cats … no symptoms at all!
Regular dental checks can help keep your cat comfortable, healthy, and pain free 🐱🦷
Woodys now getting some TLC at home with his mum before returning to us for his second POC🥰

🐾 🐕 A is for……Afghan Hound 🐕 🐾

Afghan Hounds are ancient, aristocratic sighthounds known for their flowing coats, 40 mph speeds, and independent, cat-like personalities. Originally bred for hunting in harsh, mountainous terrain, they are surprisingly tough, boasting large paw pads for traction and a unique ability to scent, making them both beautiful show dogs and skilled, independent hunters
If your dog breed begins with an A, post an appreciation picture below. ❤️

The team at Archway Veterinary Surgery and our sister practice,The Bridge Veterinary Clinic,took part in CPR training last week.

The teams brushed up on their CPR skills as emergencies can happen in a heartbeat — and being prepared matters. ❤️🐾

It was a valuable day of training, teamwork, and practice to make sure we’re ready to act quickly and confidently🩺

Teamwork is the dream work! 🥰

He was the best boy! 🐱 🐾
