You may have heard Richard speaking on BBC Radio 4 yesterday. He had to clarify to the presenting team that you should never give your dog ibuprofen.

For anyone who heard this please can we re-iterate ibuprofen is toxic to dogs and should NEVER be given.

Happy Clean Sweep Sunday …

Continuity of care is important here at Sanderson Vet which is why our team are available 24-7 and we don’t outsource our out-of-hours care or specialist care.

Let’s do some simple maths!

Number of hours per week: 168 hours

Sanderson Vet:
Normal opening hours: 75 hours
OOH (dealt with by your usual team): 93 hours

Total hours you can see your own vet: 168 hours (100%)

Average Vet Clinic:
Normal opening hours: 50.5 hours
OOH (outsourced): 117.5

Total hours you can see your own vet: 50.5 (30.1%)

At Sanderson Vet we believe you should be able to see your own vet 7 days a week, and that we should be open, with access to full records, 100% of the time!

When choosing a vet, we always recommend you use one that is willing to be there 24-7!
