We would like to welcome back the lovely Ruth to Village vets.

Some of you might remember Ruth from before when she worked with us before going to work at our sister branch in Morningside. She has also been doing a bit of locuming but decided she missed us too much and has come back to Village permanently 😊

Ruth has been qualified for 21 years and brings with her a wealth of experience and I’m sure you will all make her very welcome. 🤗

Beware of scam!

We have been made aware of a telephone scam whereby a scammer will contact owners pretending to be from a vets who have treated their dog after going missing and asking for payment before you can get your pet back. If you ever get a phone call like this after reporting a missing pet please hang up and contact your vet directly to check if this is legitimate.

Please be aware the road under the bridge is closed into Longniddry due to flooding so please leave time for appointments where possible ☔️

Our dearest Eilidh has decided to fly the nest and embark on a new venture away from clinical Vet work in an exciting new role.

Many of you have come to know and love Eilidh as much as we do, so we are pleased to say that she will still be working for us on a Saturday rotation, working every 3rd Saturday.

I’m sure you will all wish her well on her new adventure.

Good luck Eilidh, we will miss you and your baking especially 🍰

Does your dog chew sticks?

Word of warning ‼️

Chewed up sticks are the ideal size to get stuck in the roof of your dogs mouth and it makes them panic and paw at themselves furiously 😢

This 5cm stick was lodged in the roof of the mouth between teeth and was removed under sedation.

Thankfully this dog made a full recovery 🙌🏻

Age is not a barrier merely an obstacle to overcome 🐶

This is little Tweedy who was with us for a dental procedure on Wednesday.

She is almost 16 years old!

She’s a tough terrier who doesn’t let that stop her from having a general anaesthetic and 8 teeth out! 🦷 Well done Julia! 💪🏻💪🏻

She had a pre anaesthetic blood test and intravenous fluid to help support her system and fully recover.

Speedy recovery Tweedy 🥰
