The gorgeous crazy Mable was in for her spay last week. Safe to say her pre-medication was working well as you can see from the first picture 🤪
She has been good as gold since her surgery and was doing really well at her post-op check with Nurse Ali.

🌟 A very warm welcome to Alison, our new Registered Veterinary Nurse 🌟

Alison was raised on the west coast of Scotland and began her career at a local veterinary practice in 2009. She qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2018 from SRUC in Edinburgh, where she developed a strong interest in anaesthesia. Subsequently earning a certificate in anaesthesia through ISVPS.

In addition to her clinical responsibilities, Alison has a passion for being a Clinical Coach for the Student Veterinary Nurses, ensuring they receive the support needed while caring for pets in our practice.

This is the lovely little Betty who was in to be spayed with Vet Sabrina the other week.
These photos are of Betty being prepared for her procedure.
She was very brave for her surgery and later dazzled us with her homemade bee costume at her post-op check.
I think we can all agree she looks BEE-utifle🐝!

Bonfire Night is upon us 🎆
Here are some tips to help keep your pets calm and safe during the fireworks🐱🐶

1. Turn up radio/TV volume to drown out the noise
2. Provide a safe space for your pet - Allow them to hide in an area they have picked if they feel safe
3. Allow your pet to go outside to the toilet before dark and ensure gates and fences are secure
4. Keep all cats indoors
5. Distract your pet with games, treats and toys
6. Close windows and curtains to help block out flashes and muffle bangs
7. Stay with your pet but try to stay calm yourself. Your pet will pick up on how you're feeling
8. Make use of calming aids such as Pet Remedy, Feliway, Adaptil, Thunder shirts etc.
9. Administer herbal or prescribed drugs a few hours before the fireworks start
10. Burn any extra energy. Take your dog out on a long walk in the morning/afternoon before any fireworks start

Breathe Easy! An increasing number of dogs throughout the UK have required veterinary treatment in order to ease or correct problems with their airways and improve their overall respiratory health.

Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) in Dogs.

If you are concerned that restricted airways are impacting the health and welfare of your dog, we would recommended a thorough examination and discussion with one of our vets that perform these operations. An initial consultation is £60. In this consultation you will have a 30 minute slot to meet the vet, discuss the history of your pet, any problems you are concerned about and ask questions that you might have. At this appointment the vet will discuss with you whether they feel surgical correction may benefit your dog and discuss the different treatment options.

If after the consultation we feel it is appropriate, we will offer to perform this surgery. We can offer this for £1000.

Our lovely receptionist Sam knows how to style a landing on the GoApe zip lines!

14/10/2024

On a lovely Autumn day the team had a fantastic trip to GoApe in Grizedale forest for our Autumn social. After a few nervous moments everyone completed the course and had a great time! Although, we’re not sure about Sam’s landing technique!

This handsome cat is Muffin who was in for his booster vaccine. He clearly felt very comfortable exploring our consultation room.
He is also hyperthyroid which is very well controlled through medication and regular blood tests. 🐈
