To the animals lost in service and to those still serving us today ๐Ÿ’œ

Animals such as dogs, horses and pigeons were often drafted into war efforts and purple poppies can be worn to remember the service of these animals and the lives that have been sadly lost.

Remember, remember the 5th November! Bonfire night can be a scary time for pets and wildlife alike - here are some top tips to make them as comfortable as possible over the firework season:

๐ŸŒŸ Take your dog for a long walk / run during the day so they will be tired and more likely to sleep in the noisy evenings.

๐ŸŒŸ Keep windows and curtains / blinds closed to keep loud bangs and bright flashes minimal.

๐ŸŒŸ Play calming music through the radio (Classic FM are starting a special for pets starting from 5pm on the 5th November)

๐ŸŒŸ Behave calmly and relaxed yourself - pets easily respond to the energy you give off and making a fuss can reinforce the idea there is something to be scared of!

๐ŸŒŸ For particularly anxious pets, we sell over the counter supplements such as Calmex to help deal with stress.

Feel free to share photos in the comments of how your pets are spending their evening! Call us if you would like any further advice during this season ๐Ÿ’ซ

Our Story

Our veterinary practice was opened in 1987 by Gerald Valentine (having moved from his previous surgery in Heywood to the more spacious facilities here in Castleton). He was joined in 1993 by Simon Cogan and, 10 years later by Adam Deavin). In 2003, Gary Dybdall came on board, as 15-yeard old completing his work experience for school. In 2004, Gary worked for Valentineโ€™s by cleaning kennels until 2005, when he left to do his training. He returned to us in May 2016 as a full-time qualified vet.

Together the partnership offers you over 60 years of veterinary experience with the emphasis on good communication and a caring attitude.

The practice deals with all aspects of small animal veterinary medicine and surgery at a well equipped, convenient site.

We have a large adjacent carpark for free easy parking so feel free to pop in and see us.
