💐Sharing with you this week’s bundle of joy 💐

🌟Wishing all of our brilliant clients and staff competing the best of luck at this years Royal Cornwall Show 🌟

🐴We’d love to hear if you’ve entered and what classes🐴

Accuracy is the name of the game, but be too careful and you may not be quick enough to win. This is the on-going balance that Show jumpers must take.

One of our bigger classes this year is the Penmellyn Vet Group Area Trial taking place on Saturday in the Main Ring.

Which rider will take the risk to go for the win?

A big thank you to Penmellyn Vet Group for their support of this class.

We had some lovely feedback about our vet, Evie, inspiring the next generation while doing some routine dentistry on the gorgeous Fred.

'Thank Evie for this morning partly for her brilliant work and partly for being so lovely to Meg , inspiring Meg's dream to be a vet. She was straight onto vetting her dinosaurs when we went in'

Well Done Evie and Good Luck Meg!

🌸Your Friday dose of joy!🌸

With spring in the air, we'd love to tell you about an exciting visit we went out to recently.

Evie went out to visit an unexpected arrival:
Martha was a bit of a surprise back in Febuary and we are excited to show you how well she's grown since then. Abbie has been to meet her this week and reports both Mum and Foal are doing fantastically 🥰

🩷Are you waiting for any new arrivals this spring?
🩵Do you know how to check the placenta?
🩷Do you know how long before meconium should be passed?
Our vets are ready to give advice and to come out to do your Mare/ Foal Examination where we can also do a stable side IgG test. Here the vets will ensure everything is OK with mum, baby, and hopefully, very excited owners!

✨📘Back in January our Nurses Sarah, Fiona, and Vet Evie attended the "Excellence in Equine" CPD course in Glasgow. Evie spent the time in lectures varying from Orthopaedics to Laminitis & Strangles. Fiona and Sarah went to lectures on nursing the intensive foal, nursing hospitalised patients, worming, making the most of our in-house laboratory, and much more. 📘✨

Whilst there the ladies had to make the most of seeing the beautiful Loch Lomond and have Evie teach everyone how to ceilidh properly. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
