✨ Before & After 👁️ 👁️ ! ✨

Our very own Graeme Shepherd removed a lump from under Bella’s eye, and just look at that healing! You’d never know it was ever there 😍 We always aim for gentle, expert care, and we’re so touched by the kind words from their owner:

🗣 “Thank you Dr Shepherd and your outstanding team at Shepherds Vets for your exacting surgery that has restored Bella to her "blemish free" beauty. I didn't believe such a perfect outcome was possible until you proved it was. We are extremely grateful we have a team with such expertise near us"

Thank you for trusting us at Shepherds Vets with your precious pet💕

✨️ Meet Susanne ✨️
📢 out of hours emergency care 21st - 23rd October 7pm - 8.30am 📢

Susanne is one of our out of hours emergency care vets. She brings a wealth of knowledge with her having done over 15 years as an emergency care vet.

Here is what she has to tell you about herself;

"As a vet I’m pretty much an all rounder. I like emergency and critical care work, we never know what’s coming through the door next.

I have an interest in Brachycephalic breeds and their health concerns. I am a BOAS assessor and used to be on the Brachycephalic Working Group as the Health Coordinator of the Pug breed council.

I’m a member of the Kennel Club and part of the Crufts vet team. I have shown Pugs and French Bulldogs in the past extensively. One of my dogs (an international multi champion) did just become a World Champion at the World Dog Show in Geneva last weekend.

Besides that, I love spending time with my family, keeping active with swimming, yoga, hiking and the dogs."

If you need us out of hours, Suzanne will be our on call vet until 23rd October 💙
📞 For emergencies, please call the usual practice number 01562822986 and follow the instructions. Thank you.
