✏️ Enzo was clearly getting ready to go back to school when he chewed on a pencil. Unfortunately it got stuck across the roof of his mouth so had to be sedated to have it safely removed and to check for any injuries.

Dear Valued Clients,

We are writing to inform you of a significant change at our practice. After 26 years of dedicated service, Robin Creighton will be leaving from the practice on 16th of August 2024.

Robin joined us in 1998 when our practice was still known as Bayer, Garett and Freeman, operating at our old site. His contributions have been integral to our growth and success, particularly since he became one of the practice partners in 2003. Robin has always been passionate about all aspects of first opinion practice and has a special interest in poultry medicine, which has greatly benefited our clients and their beloved pets.

Throughout the years, many of you have had the pleasure of meeting Robin and experiencing his exceptional care and commitment.

Robin is now looking forward to pursuing his other passion—farming. While we are saddened to see him go, we are excited for him as he embarks on this new chapter.

Please join us in wishing Robin all the best for his future.

Thank you for your continued trust and support.

Sincerely,

Stefaan and Lindsey
Directors

Hottest day of the year today!! ☀️☀️☀️

Please remember your dogs do not need walking in this heat or travelling unnecessarily in a car. Some dogs will try to sunbathe but ensure you don’t allow this for long and bring them into the shade or indoors.

Thank you for coming to see us!

We have had a lovely time with all the families that visited us yesterday. Career advise was flowing for our vets and veterinary nurses of the future. We had many involved conversations with our enthusiastic young pet owners and animal lovers (and their accompanying adults!) and a good general catch-up . We also had some very talented bandaging assistants and great discussions on behaviour and body language signs for dogs, cats and rabbits. We were only left with a few refreshments, which is a good sign! We wish all the children, a safe and fun next few weeks of summer holidays.

📅📣 Key date for XL Bully owners

If you’re an owner of an exempted XL Bully in England and Wales, who was over the age of one on 31st January 2024, you’ll need to send proof of neutering to DEFRA by 30th June 2024 to avoid the heartbreak of your dog being seized by police 💔

If your XL Bully isn’t yet neutered, book an appointment with your vet as soon as possible and allow yourself enough time for the paperwork to be completed and submitted via the Government website https://bit.ly/453qSFE

You can find helpful information and other important dates on our website https://www.dogstrust.org.uk/xlbullyinfo

Our nurses take all of our X-rays so must have a great understanding of anatomy to have diagnostic quality X-rays for the vets to view.

Puppy love ❤️

All new puppies come and see our qualified consulting nurses ahead of seeing the vet. This is so our nurses can cover all the non medical puppy issues. Discussing things like diet, toilet training, crate training, insurance and much more.
On our care plan the nurses then get to see the lovely puppies monthly generally to keep covering any issues people are having.

Pet Bravery Award for Belle

“After a walk she became ill with sickness and diarrhoea, which after a couple of days she was brought into you initially for a consultation and meds, then again the following day where you admitted her for further treatment. She was hospitalised for 2 1/2 days. She has since made a full recovery with no after effects. Many thanks for that.

Belle is a loving, caring, affectionate dog, but can be quite timid at times. She loves to be cuddled and stroked, and does not like the cold. She loves a swim, whether it be a lake or the open sea.”

Sometimes a stay with us is unavoidable but we are always so pleased when it doesn’t have to be for too long and they are feeling much better.

We are very proud of both our Sophie’s for passing all their nursing exams to become qualified veterinary nurses.

This is a 2 year course full of exams, assignments, a portfolio of work and then even more exams.
Our qualified nurses are clinical coaches in practice to teach them all their skills and ensure they are able to do everything required of them once they are qualified!

Huge congratulations to you both on putting in all the hard work, it’s all paid off 🥳
