Sharing an important appeal by Pet Blood Bank UK.....

New donor registrations have been really low recently, and our negative blood stocks are critically low. We need your help to ensure we have enough blood in stock for any dog that needs it 😢

Could you help us to spread the word by sharing this post?

If your dog meets the following criteria, they could become a lifesaving blood donor and help other dogs in need:

🎂 Between 1 and 8 years old
⚖️ Weigh over 25kg
💪 Fit and healthy
🐶 Confident and enjoy meeting new people

Coming to a donation session takes only 45 minutes and each donation can help save up to four other dogs ❤️

Head over to our website to register today to start making a difference 👉 www.petbloodbankuk.org/welcome

West Bar Street has been fully reopened this morning, following the water leak by Beargarden Road last week. 😀

Today we had lovely 'Daisy' stay with us, as she had to have an anaesthetic and operation. Here she is with Erin, one of our Student Veterinary Nurses. Daisy was quite nervous, so Erin spent lots of dedicated one to one time with her.

We wish you a speedy recovery Daisy! 🥰🐾

Thank you to Daisy's owner, for allowing us to share the photos.

Hello - Despite the water leak WE ARE OPEN today! 😀
When driving to the practice please come from Banbury Cross direction, as West Bar is now completely closed around the junction with Beargarden Road.
Many thanks.
