For all my clients who have their treatments in my rooms, I am currently building you a comfortable, safe area to wait for your pups' treatment. At the moment, the existing path to the treatment room is non-existent and parking is a little tricky, particularly for those with morning appointments. As best we can, I will arrange for the driveway to be free for you to park and unload your dog. I will look out for you and direct you to the treatment room. At the moment, I am scheduling appointments so your dog will not encounter another dog before or after their treatment.

I thank everyone for their patience during the construction phase. The new waiting area should be available in the next 3 - 4 weeks - fingers crossed with weather etc.
