Martha has recently been seen at our Wakefield practice for a weight check with our lovely nurses! She was so well behaved and quickly became the centre of attention for all the staff!! After a lot of cuddles💗 and a quick photoshoot📷she went home with her routine dose of parasite prevention!

I think we can all agree she is absolutely adorable😍

This is Ember!🐾 We first saw lovely Ember at the end of July for her first vaccination and initial health check with our lovely vet Louise! We then saw her back 4 weeks later for the second part of the vaccination course.

Just look at how much she has grown in those 4 weeks!! 😮

Ember is a Doberman and when she is fully grown, we would expect her to be around 30kg.

However, as she is only 12 weeks, she still has a little bit further to go - but soon enough, will be too big to be sitting on our consult room table!

Ember will come for another visit in 4 weeks time for her next weight check for her essential parasite prevention.

We cant wait to see how much she has grown again!
