We’re pleased to announce that our Nae Fireworks Night event is returning this year on Tuesday 5th of November!
If you’re looking for somewhere quiet to get away and walk your dog(s), in the company of other like-minded owners, then Whitelee Windfarm is the place for you. The Whitelee Countryside Rangers, Whitelee Visitor Centre and ScottishPower Renewables staff will be on site to run the event and do our very best to maintain a firework-free zone - although please understand this can never be fully guaranteed! We recommend that dogs are kept on leads during the event.
Whitelee Windfarm Visitor Centre will be open to dogs and owners, for hot drinks and cake until 9pm - don't forget to bring your re-usable cup to receive a discount off your hot drink and help us reduce our waste. New for this year, there will be coffee vans on both the grass in the visitor centre car park, and at turbine 40 at the bottom of the hill from the visitor centre. There will also be portaloos at turbine 40.

For more details including parking details and helpful information for visiting please follow the link:

As always – spread the word that fireworks are not permitted at Whitelee windfarm. They pose a danger to site infrastructure, can cause peatbog fires, and cause distress to the sites wildlife and livestock, as well as visitors…so please don’t bring them.

Fireworks night is upon us again, a night of big firework displays and a lot of noise for our pets. 🎆🧨
We have put together a few tips how to try to reduce stress for your pets over this season.
* Make sure pets are kept indoors, walking them well before dark.
* Bring small furries who live outside, indoors. If you are unable to do this, but have an accessible shed or garage, house them in there during this season. 🐰
* Keep curtains and windows closed. 🏠
* Turn up music and televisions in the house in several different rooms to try to drown out the noise of the fireworks. 🎸🎤🎹
* if your pet tries to go and hide under beds, behind couches etc, allow them to do so and do not try to coax them out. This is their way of coping and the more you fuss, this can actually make their anxiety worse.
* If you use plug - ins in the house to help with anxiety or have been prescribed anti-anxiety medication from the vet for your pet, ensure these are switched on/administered in time for the fireworks beginning! 💊

We wish you all a very safe Bonfire Night 🔥

Yesterday, vet Helen Stevens volunteered at the SSPCA to assist with the care required for the influx of rescue adult dogs and puppies that they have taken into local rescue centres in the past few weeks.
The dogs rescued had a number of conditions requiring treatment/procedures that she was able to help with.
Due to this massive intake of rescue dogs the SSPCA would be extremely grateful of any donations that people may be able to give them including bedding, collars etc or any contributions to their care.

Meet Winifred Brontë (Winnie) 💕 📚

This gorgeous little lady came to see us last week for her second vaccination of her puppy course. 💉

Before seeing Richard for her health check and vaccine she visited nurse Kim, for a puppy chat. Her mum had the chance to ask questions regarding diet, training, neutering, parasite prevention etc.

She was so well behaved and is just gorgeous. We look forward to seeing her again. 💕

Oreo’s owner brought him into one of our nursing clinics last week to have his nails trimmed. His mum had managed to clip some at home but he was a bit too wriggly to allow her to get them all.
