Its back! Wanted to hold another one of these popular courses for a long time and now we have the perfect space for it! Our friends at will be back on the 28th April so any dog professionals or dog owners who want to know what to do in an emergency you can message us to book now 🐾
This is what transparency and honesty looks like in the animal industry when we tell you to give your pet X and return on Y so we can safely work with them OR offer heavier sedation that moment so we can address the issue. Your pet is your companion and we do care about them and their emotional and physical wellbeing.
This is great. Wishing all of you and your pets a very Merry and pet safe Christmas 🎄 ❤️
‘Twas the week before Christmas and all though the land,
Vets teams were ready to give pets a hand,
Dogs, rabbits, hamsters, horses and cats,
All often suffer with festive mishaps!
Like the greedy old doggo who ate all the mince pies,
but they are not good for their insides!
Same goes for the stollen, the cake and the pudding,
It’s raisins that can give the kidneys a drubbing!
The next festive treat that gives us a fright,
is the chocolate, so please keep your snacks locked up tight!
The dark stuff’s the one that’s the worst of them all,
if your pooch pinches a prezzie, please give us all call!
First we will make them do great smelling vomit,
then medicines to help them, don’t worry, we’re on it!
And the puss, who climbs up and then pulls down the tree?
(it looks like a giant cat toy, you see!)
Don’t panic, we’re there to put them back together!
Your vets are available, whatever the weather!
In fact all the baubles, lights, decorations,
are enough to give your vet palpitations!
They look like fun stuff, just right to play with,
but if they are eaten, cause all sorts of mischief!
And sharing the dinner seems like a great idea,
but not the next day, when they have sickness and diarrhoea!
So this festive season to keep your pets out of trouble
(and stop you from rushing to the vets on the double!)
Please keep them away from the gifts and food,
but you can certainly treat them if you’re in the mood!
With presents and stockings made just for pets,
which surely for them is as good as it gets!
So I will wish you a very happy Christmas 2023
and hope that your new year is all you wish it to be!
Happy Christmas everyone! And thank you very much to my colleagues who will be covering the on-call this year.
Hi, is there anyone in Harlow or Sawbridgeworth that would like their pets' nails clipping or glands expressing between 11 and 12 on Monday? Please drop me a message. Thank you 😊 🐾
One of my nail clips from today. Isn't he handsome 😍

🎆**Last Minute Firework Tips For Fearful Pets!**🎆
Tonight is going to be a big night for fireworks and if you have a pet who finds them stressful, it is not too late to help them!
🐶 Dogs🐶
🐶 Tire them out while it is still light.
If your dog has already been scared by the fireworks before tonight, they are likely to start to anticipate them as soon as the light starts to fade, so get them out for a good walk well before this happens.
And don't forget mental exercise is also very tiring for dogs. So feed their meals today from snuffle mats, puzzle balls or just scatter feed in your kitchen. Anything to give their brain a workout and encourage them to rest it (by sleeping!) later on.
🐶 Make a den
If you haven't already, make a cosy, comfy and covered den for them to rest in. This will muffle the noises and dogs feel more secure when they can hide.
Given the night is tonight, rather than creating a whole new place, see if you can get something set up where they normally sleep.
Don't forget to close the curtains as well.
🐶 Turn up the tunes!
Music with a heavy beat is the best choice to disguise the firework noise. Opt for something like African Drumming or Drum and Bass!
🐶 Fill up their Kong
If you haven't got a toy you can stuff with a tasty, sticky snack like peanut butter (make sure it's not sugar free so it doesn't contain Xylitol) or doggy paste, I would recommend you head out and get one!
Chewing and licking for a prolonged period will not only distract your dog, it is also a really relaxing activity for them and, again, will tire out their brains and help them to snooze once they are done.
🐶 Comfort them (but not too much!)
It is important that we reassure our dogs that everything is OK tonight but it is also
vital we don't over-do the cuddles and attention because we can easily make them think that we are scared as well and that will worry them more!
So if they are resting and chilled, give them the occasional pat but don't smother them.
If they are panting and stressed, sit with them and be a calming presence but try to communicate that you aren't worried and they shouldn't be either.
🐱Cats🐱
🐱 Lock the cat flap
Make sure your cat is in for the night well before dusk and lock the cat flap so they cannot get back out.
You will need to provide a litter tray if they normally toilet outside
🐱 Leave them be
Generally our cats are fairly sensible and if they are worried, they will hide away until it is all over. If yours does this, just let them carry on, and maybe provide a cosy blanket if they aren't somewhere soft!
🐰Rabbits and outdoor pets🐰
If you can bring the hutch into the garage for the night that can be helpful but for most small pets, covering their bedroom over with a nice thick blanket and making sure they have lots of bedding to hunker down in is enough to get them though the night.
I hope this helps your pets and you have a quiet (as possible!) night!

Thank you for all your support throughout the summer. I really enjoyed looking after all your pets, whilst you were away. They've been an absolute pleasure.
Happy National Dog day to my dogs and all of yours...
"Love is wet noses, sloppy kisses, and wagging tails!" 🐾❤️🐕
A few from today. 🐾❤️
If anyone is after C&C Grids, I have 34, plus connectors for sale. I've had to move my guinea pigs outside 🐾
***kittens have been found***Stray cat handed into Bishop's Stortford Veterinary Hospital
Young, female, black, DSH cat, found on Dunmow Rd, Cm23 5HN area. No collar or microchip. She has an injured leg and needs veterinary care. She is a recent mum. We are concerned that there are kittens out there! Please if you are in the area she was found, can you search your gardens, sheds, garages, out buildings. Or if you think she is yours, please call the vets on 01279654108. Proof of ownership would be required. Thank you.
Our friends at the Dogs Trust have made a useful guide for noticing heatstroke. I’m sure most of you are as excited as we are for the sunny week ahead of us ☀️ but the hot weather can be dangerous for our dogs. If yours is showing any of these signs, please call us on 01279 654108.
