As we move into 2025 we would all like to wish our wonderful patients and clients a
Happy New Year
Please stay safe (no snacking on toxic foods! yes Eggsy I am talking to you!) don't party too hard Olive, I know you like an early night!) and no stealing Christmas cake and sharing it with your Nephews Scout we will know it was you who started THE PARTY!)
We look forward to seeing you all for your health appointments in 2025.
[The story - Having steeped the dried fruit in alcohol for several months Olive ad Scout mummy started making her Christmas cake and the one for her neighbour. Having lovingly mixed all the ingredients and cooking the cakes she left them on the side to cool. Once cool she covered them in marmalade and wrapped them in marzipan ready for icing the following morning.
Eggsy and his brother Zeus apparently goaded Scout to bring the cake down so that they could first sample to make sure that the cake was good enough... Scout happy to comply bought both cakes down and the party began!!
knowing the dangers of raisins, alcohol, dried fruit and marzipan their human immediately called the vets and bought the festive four in for an emergency appointment!
Several moments later, after the injection, the culprits were immediately identified. Poor Olive and Zeus had not part taken in the festivities, however Scout and Eggsy had happily eaten a cake and a half cake between them!]
Happy to report all pups are now home and well, although sadly there was no cake on Christmas day!
If you are worried your pet may have eaten or drunk something that they should not have done please call us for advice. We are open 24 Hours a day and all over the bank holiday

Take a look behind the scenes - post surgical laser treatment (PSLT) with Hannah, our physiotherapist.
PSLT uses class 4 laser light to stimulate and increase healing, whilst also acting as an anti-inflammatory, helping reduce post-operative pain. Benefits also include reduced scar tissue formation and better hair regrowth.
Treatment can be done either consciously or whilst your pet is still under general anaesthetic just before they wake from their procedure.
To find out more speak with your nurse, when you bring your pet for their operation, about laser therapy treatment.

Isis loves her acorn, it's her favourite.
She came for surgery but wanted to play before she was sedated.

A day in the life - Laparoscopic spay edition 🐾.
This is Lola when she came in for her Lap spay. This is sometimes known as a “key hole spay “ , which is a minimally invasive procedure. The procedure allows for the removal of ovaries through a small incision using a vessel sealer and cameras.
As the surgery is key hole the healing process is quicker, as is recovery and this leads to less post operative pain.
We are proud to be able to offer Lap Spay surgeries at Farnham Veterinary Hospital, and hope this gives you a good insight into what happens during the surgery.
Feel free to contact reception to find out more!

This is Lenny.
Lenny needed lots of cuddles and reassurance before his castrate operation thankfully our nurse Emma was on hand to give out all the strokes and love.

During international fun week it felt absolutely necessary to challenge the nurses and vets to a "buster collar" challenge!
Each of them had to connect the collar tabs and round the buster collar ready for application.
Who do you think won???
*This is Alicia and Gemma from Vale - the challenge was across all the branches*
👍 for nurses
❤️ for vets

World Physio day.
Hydrotherapy with our underwater treadmill is a fantastic, low impact, high intensity exercise suitable for a range of fitness levels and conditions, where land-based work is not suitable.
The buoyancy of the water reduces limb weight bearing and increases joint mobility, whilst the resistance of walking through water increases muscle strength and endurance.
Darby gets so excited to see Hannah and continues to use Hydrotherapy post bilateral TPLO surgery to maintain her fitness.

When your pet is due to come and for Surgery we ask that they are not fed from 21:30 the night before, although they are allowed water. This is to prevent regurgitation during the procedure.
We know you get all the "sad eyes" in the morning, and several pets have even tried to tell us that you are starving them!!! 😂
Once your pet has started to recover we do like to offer them some food, so don't worry about them not getting fed until late when you collect them.*
This is Elsie enjoying her post surgery breakfast!!
*we will let you know on discharge if your pet has not eaten the food we offered.
