These three beauties were born at the practice a few weeks ago by caesarean section and it was a pleasure to see them all today doing so well!

Today we welcomed a representative from Ayrshire Roads Alliance to our meeting.

We discussed our concerns about the number of vehicles parked on double yellow lines or other inappropriate places and how we can work together to stop this through enforcement/ticketing and other measures.

It was great to hear about other initiatives including a review of hospital parking and the changes which will soon apply to pavement parking.

We want to keep our streets safe for everyone whilst they - please be considerate when parking your vehicle.

We are delighted to welcome Sarah to the practice, who joins our nursing team as a third RVN to assist our busy vets 😊 🐾

Originally from Yorkshire, Sarah qualified as an RVN in 1999. She left the profession in 2004 to work in various roles within the NHS and has recently completed a period of supervised practice accredited by the RCVS to restore her RVN qualification. Sarah’s hobbies include walking her dog Yani and looking after her small herd of Galloway cattle.

⚠️ Red weather warning Fri 25th Jan ⚠️

Due to the red weather warning in force all day in this area on Friday we have decided to operate an EMERGENCIES ONLY policy throughout the day. If you have a routine appointment booked we are trying to reorganise that. For EMERGENCIES ONLY please call 01290 420255. Please do not call if it is not an emergency. We will have a vet on call but all staff will be working from home and will only attend the surgery for genuine emergencies. Thank you and stay safe 🐾

📌 Update for dog owners 📌

We have an important update regarding your dog’s vaccinations. Our main vaccine supplier, MSD, are no longer producing Nobivac Lepto 2 – a vaccine against leptospirosis.

We are concerned by reports of leptospirosis cases in some dogs which have been vaccinated with Lepto 2. This is thought to be due to new strains of leptospirosis being brought into the UK.

Over the next month, we will change to Nobivac Lepto 4 which provides greater protection for your dog.

We are now vaccinating puppies and adult dogs whose vaccines have lapsed with Lepto 4 and we will soon extend this to adult dog boosters.

To ensure maximum protection your dog will need two doses exactly four weeks apart. For adult dogs who are up to date with their vaccines we will provide the second dose free of charge, provided that it is done on time.

We are very happy to answer any questions you may have about this transition. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

Please bear in mind when booking your dog’s booster that you will need to return in exactly 4 weeks – please make sure you will be available.

Thank you for your continued support 🐶🐾
