Archie is 15 years old, who has been on Librela for 2 months. Before Librela he had started slowing down and was not willing to walk as far, now he is actively playing fetch with his owner.
Librela is specifically designed for long term management of osteoarthritis pain in dogs.
It functions like naturally occuring antibodies with minimal involvement of liver or kidneys and minimal gastrointestinal impact. Also there is no know interactions with other medications.
Librela is a monthly injection administered at the practice which could be consider for:
* Dogs that will benefit from assured pain control for a month
* Pet owners who seek the ease of monthly injection
* Dogs that don’t tolerate a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
* Dogs who may be difficult to dose orally
If you think your dog could benefit from Librela, give us a call to book in with a vet!

May I have some attention please 🐾🥺
A Day at Elizabeth Smith Vets
You may have seen that we’ve been using desensitisation techniques to help Rocco’s confidence at the vets. Our goal was to castrate him.. and today that happened! 👏 🏆
Rocco was first weighed to accurately calculate his anaesthetic drugs.
His pre op observations were taken which include; heart rate, respiration rate and temperature.
He was clipped and surgically prepped prior to his castration and then woke up to lots of love and cuddles 🥰

We are delighted to welcome clients back into reception to wait with their pets until their appointment. Due to the ongoing risk of COVID-19 we politely request that clients continue to wear a face covering whilst in the building and during their consultation.
If you are medically exempt from wearing a face covering or prefer not to enter the building please make the receptionist aware and we will make alternative arrangements as necessary.
If your pet is attending as a day patient then the nurse will continue to contact you the day before to run through the consent form. They will finish the admit on your arrival.
We are so grateful to all of our clients for their patience and understanding during the past 2 years and we will constantly review our protocols so we can continue to provide the best care for you and your pets.
