Meet beautiful Mabel! 🐾

Our gorgeous 2.5-year-old Rottweiler, has had quite the journey!

She was unfortunately born with poor cruciate stability and has undergone TPLO (Tibial plateau levelling osteotomy) surgeries on both back legs. Her rehab journey with us began in April 2024, and she’s been making incredible progress ever since.

Thanks to her hard work (and a little help from hydrotherapy and her parents), Mabel’s owners now get to enjoy so many adventures with her and Mabel gets to live life the way her owners hoped she would.

It’s safe to say our team look forward to Mabel’s sessions every single time, and we can’t wait to see her continue to thrive!

Saying goodbye is never easy 💔

We were truly touched by this heartfelt message from Trudie.

Although farewells are always painful, we are grateful to have been there for Keela, offering her compassionate care and supporting her family through such a difficult time.

To her family, we hope Keela’s memory brings you comfort and joy in the days to come - our thoughts are with you 💜

Meet lovely Hugo!

Hugo, a nearly 3-year-old Romanian rescue, who has come such a long way!
When his lovely owners initially brought him home, they noticed he was bunny-hopping and seemed uncomfortable on his back legs.

After a consultation with our Vet Lucy, X-rays revealed hip dysplasia, but instead of jumping straight to surgery, they decided to try hydrotherapy first—and it’s been a game-changer!

Thanks to regular sessions, Hugo has built incredible muscle strength and is managing his condition so well that he only needs pain relief occasionally, instead of daily. We’re so proud of Hugo and his amazing progress! 💪🐶

‼️Attention‼️

Is your cat missing?

We have had an entire male black cat handed into our Bridlington practice.

Unfortunately, he does not have a microchip and therefore we are unable to trace his owners.

He was found on Scarborough Road, Driffield and is currently undergoing treatment.

If you believe he may belong to you, please give us a call on 01262 677269 ASAP

Thank you!

February is Pet Dental Month! So let’s talk teeth!🦷

Did you know that 80% of dogs and 70% of cats show signs of dental disease by age 3?

No one likes the dentist, but here’s why checking your pet’s teeth matters:
🐾 Prevents bad breath, gum disease, and tooth loss
🐾 Stops painful infections that can affect overall health
🐾 Helps them eat, play, and live their best lives

How to check your pet’s teeth:
🦷 Look for redness or swelling around the gums, or brown buildup on teeth
🦷 Check for bad breath—it’s not just “doggy breath”!
🦷 Schedule regular dental cleanings with your vet - it can really make a difference!

Book a dental checkup today to keep your pet's teeth clean and shiny! Call us on 01262 677269 (Bridlington) or 01377 252087 (Driffield)

Meet Stanley and Ember!🐱

These two lovely brothers visited us last week for their castration procedures, and they absolutely melted our hearts! Their only flaw was they required a lot of cuddles which we kindly obliged to do (of course!).

Wishing these beautiful brothers a smooth and speedy recovery — it was such a joy to care for them! 💜

Meet Ella, our superstar terrier! 🌟

Ella, a 6-year-old terrier mix, underwent TPLO (Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy) surgeries on both her hind legs this year. After a few weeks of healing and patience, she started hydrotherapy to help her get back to her active, happy self.

At first, Ella wasn’t too sure about the underwater treadmill (she’s one smart cookie and pre-empted the belt’s movement!). But with a little perseverance, love, and lots of sausages and carrots 🥕, Ella had a breakthrough moment. She now walks confidently on the treadmill and loves her sessions with our Rehab team!

Thanks to her amazing owners and her determination, Ella’s recovery has been a huge success. She now attends hydrotherapy for maintenance and continues to bring joy to everyone she meets.

Well done, Ella! 🎉
