Hattie was on site today helping with the nurse evaluations, she took her role very seriously and was keenly involved in filling in all the correct documents.

Later she had an ultrasound and made sure that all the equipment was working.

Great work nurse Hattie 🥰

Post operation one of our clients had booked for our physiotherapist to receive recuperative physiotherapy.

It's recommended to start physiotherapy as soon as possible after surgery so that the treatment is fast and the joint or tissue recovers without scarring.

A physiotherapist will create a customized treatment plan that includes exercises to improve range of motion and mobility, reduce swelling and inflammation, and improve balance and coordination.

Post-operative physiotherapy can take a few months. At Farnham Veterinary Hospital we are so lucky to have our wonderful Physiotherapist Hannah and a Hydrotherapy treadmill.

If you think your pet may benefit from so support to help them recover post operation or to help increase mobility please do speak with one of the reception team.

Tabipha visited our Farncombe branch just before Christmas for her Neutering operation.

Tabipha was very chatty and loved her cuddles with the team. She was super sleepy after her op but she was simply adorable 🥰

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

Following a collision with a car we saw Las as an emergency patient.

Las was rushed up stairs from our reception area whilst her humans were taken into a consultation room and given coffee whilst they waited to hear what injuries she may have.

Following some in depth exploratory examinations it was found that Las had some superficial injuries and a concern that she was bleeding into her bladder, she was also gingerly walking but still weight baring. Las had an overnight stay with us so we could monitor her and ensure she was recovering from the trauma she had experienced

Las was incredibly lucky and we were able to send her home the day after her accident albeit bruised and a little sore and wearing her pink onsie pyjamas (covering her abdomen to stop her worrying her injury)

Las was such a sweet and gentle girl and we loved taking care of her and seeing her able to go home.

Jim called by to ask if Sunday Roast / Christmas dinner is safe for him and his sister Twiggy to have with their humans.

we advised:
It is always tempting to give our pets their own Sunday roast / Christmas dinner but often some of the ingredients can cause our pets to become unwell or are even toxic and can lead to longer term problems.

Is gravy safe?
Human gravy is often enriched and quite high in sodium so is not advisable, if you are using meat bones and simmering water down with other ingredients this bone broth can be great for your pets as long as their is no alcohol, bone or salt additives.

Can I feed my dog meat bones?
Cooked bones are prone to splintering and can cause mouth injuries, they are difficult to break down and in some cases become lodged in our pets throats or further through the digestive tract and this may need surgical intervention.

Can I give my dog the steamed vegetable leftovers? steamed vegetables are fine to share with your pet just remember not to give them too many as these may cause flatulence.

Can I feed my pet the left over turkey? as long as the Turkey has been cooked through you can feed a small amount of meat to your pet, if you have basted your Turkey in spices, butter or other ingredients then the skin should not be shared. Make sure there are no bones, and that the turkey has been kept fresh and is not mouldy or going off.

Can I feed my pet the Pigs in blankets? both bacon and sausage can be fatty and very rich and some contain additives, cereals and grains which can cause tummy irritations.

Can I feed my pet the stuffing? These foods often have additional spices, butter and other ingredients that are too rich for dogs and can cause pancreatitis or other digestive ailments, Onions and garlic, in particular, can be very toxic to dogs

Jim asked, "Can I have one of those lovely Sunday roast biscuits then?"

"Of course you can Jim, these are made especially for you and are safe to have as treats!"

Jim smiled "Amazing, think I will be back for a more of these." ❤😍🥰

**Hazards to watch out for at Christmas**

After Loki's Poem yesterday we have added a little list for dog and cat owners to be mindful of.

There are so many treats and different snacks around at Christmas and New year. From buffet food to Santa plates, turkey bones, enriched gravies that all seem harmless. The chocolate yule log, blue cheese and Christmas cake - please be extra careful with out "treat thieves".

If you are worried your pet may have eaten something they should not have please call us for advice - we are open all over Christmas and New Year for your emergencies.

Loki sped past his owner
Faster than light
and snaffled a mince pie
In one single bite.

Loki was feeling pleased with his treat
There is nothing quite like a pie made of meat
Sadly for Loki, this was not the case
The mince pie was dried fruit and raisin laced.

Loki came for a trip to the vets
As raisins and dried fruit are toxic to pets.
Sadly we had to make Loki sick
and fortunately for Loki it was just in the Nick.

Loki went home with a charcoal treat
A special supplement to add to his meat
Loki felt a little sorry for himself
And sends you a warning when leaving treats for the Elf*

Santa would rather his plate was up high
His treats should not include a mince pie**
Better off being safer than sorry
Make sure you know what foods are a worry.

*and Santa
**(if you have a pup who could reach)

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. #PSLT #postsurgicallasertreatment #class4lasertherapy #postsurgicalrecovery #farnhamvethospital #farnhamvetgroup #farnhamveterinaryhospital

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

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! #Lapspay #laparoscopicsurgery #Laparoscopicspay #veterinarysurgeon #vetsurgeon #vetsurgeonlife #veterinarysurgeonlife #farnhamveterinaryhospital #farnhamvethospital #farnhamvetgroup

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. #yourpetsareourpassion #yourpetsdeservethebest #catcuddles #farnhamvethospital #farnhamvetgroup #farnhamveterinaryhospital

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

Olive always gets a toy when she visits our Ash Vale Branch

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. #worldphysioday #worldphysiotherapyday #hydrotherapyfordogs #hydrotherapy #HydrotherapyBenefits #farnhamvethospital #farnhamveterinaryhospital #physiotherapy
