Clients and vets alike enjoyed Ben's talk on dung beetles just before Christmas. If you've never been to one of our discussion groups, they're a great opportunity to do a deep dive into farming topics and have a chat with other farmers and vets. Keep an eye out on here for upcoming events. 🚜🚜

🐑If you're managing to get a few moments with your feet up this evening, take a look at Ed's article on barber pole worm. Previously considered just a southern problem, we are seeing more of this aggressive parasite further north.

Helpful advice again from our Small Animals team. Stuffing balls may seem like a very nice treat for a collie or labrador, but they could have expensive and upsetting consequences. Best to avoid!

Did you know that onions 🧅 and their relatives are toxic to 🐶 and 🐱 ?
The Allium family (onions, garlic, spring onions, chives and leeks) cause red blood cell destruction in cats and dogs - which can result in lethargy or collapse. A high intake can result in immediate reactions, but often the signs will take a few days to appear. Dried versions of these foods are also toxic so be careful of gravy and stuffings which are often sneaky culprits!

Very friendly little chap… please do share and see if there are worried humans he needs to be reunited with. 🙏🐈 In the meantime, rest assured he is getting plenty of cuddles and love from our team in Ripon.

🎄Christmas Miracle Needed - PLEASE SHARE 📣

This gorgeous litte chap was brought into our Ripon Hospital yesterday. He was found near the Old Rectory in Northallerton. Very friendly and quick to purr! If he belongs to you please ☎️ us on 01765 602396. Lets get him back to his family for Christmas! 🎅🏼 😻

🚨We know we mention this every year - and we know you know your dog. But you don't know whether they'll have an adverse and potentially fatal response to eating a mince pie!

ANY SIZED DOG (even a greedy lab' with a stomach apparently made from steel) can go into renal failure from ingesting raisins. Avoid tragedy (and/or a big bill) and keep those mince pies away from all dogs... even if they seem to be made of steel!

This week we welcome Mary onto the Farm Team. Mary has been working for the last 5 years in mixed practice on the Welsh border, but is now becoming a full time farm vet and will be working out of our York Office. We also welcome her labrador Tommy, who will fit in perfectly with the Bishopton Farm Team dog squad. 🐕🐾

Otherwise known as 'barber pole worm' for its distinctive appearance. You can also read about this in our forthcoming winter newsletter - look out for it online soon.

Haemonchus contortus is a roundworm that presents a significant threat to flock health and productivity if an early diagnosis and control plan are not implemented. Once considered to be a problem in the South of England, it is now seen throughout the UK and we are dealing with new flock infections in our area every year. Bishopton Farm Team have put together an update including symptoms, treatment and preventing this parasite. Go https://bit.ly/Haemonchus to find out more.

🎖Incredibly proud of Laura Eden for becoming our third farm vet to win the prestigious Nuffield Farming Scholarships Trust. Here she is with fellow Scholar, Miles, receiving her award. With Neil Eastham also a Scholar, this makes not only a hat-trick, but Bishopton the first and only veterinary practice to have three vets achieving this accolade. Well done, Laura - we couldn't be more proud. And watch this space for an interview nearer Christmas.

Happy Halloween! 👻🎃

Final day of The Great Yorkshire Show 2024! If you're there today come and find us and don't forget to let us know about success in the ring, which we'll share soon. Here are some pics from yesterday.

LIKE AND SHARE to show your support for British dairy farmers. It's World Milk Day. Milk is nutritious and sustainable. Like and Share to remind the world and support farming! #WorldMilkDay #EnjoyDairy

🐝World Bee Day buzzes into our calendars today, celebrated on the birthday of Anton Jansa, a beekeeping trailblazer born on this day in 1734!🐝 Today we remember the global importance of bees and other pollinators for keeping our ecosystems - and farms - thriving. Our wildflower meadow at our Thirsk practice is blooming - and full of bees!🐝🌻 As Investors in the Environment (currently working towards our Silver Award🥈) we are always striving to encourage pollinators and cut down on insecticides. Have you considered parasitic wasps for your farm to help with fly control? For more information, call 01765 602396 and we can send a Vet Tech to assess your site and specific requirements.🦟 #WorldBeeDay2024 #pollinators #investorsintheenvironment #bishoptonveterinarygroup

This ewe had 'ringwomb' - her cervix hadn't fully dilated during lambing. A c-section by vet Ben at the practice ensured we could deliver two healthy lambs. #lambingseason #sheep #farmvet

Please Share! We still have places on two lambing courses, on Wednesday 13th March and Thursday 21st March 2024. This is a fantastic, hands-on course, designed to give attendees the confidence to have their best lambing season yet. Places are £150+vat and take place at Sunley Raynes Farm, Galphay Lane, Ripon. For further details, email [email protected] or call the Farm Desk ☎️ 01765 602396.

In 2023 we raised £7500 for various charities supporting farming communities and their families.👏 Keep an eye out on social media for our 2024 charity events. Next up, Burns Night Supper, Friday 2nd February!🥃
