🎄 Merry Christmas from The Berkshire Vet!🎄

As the festive season is upon us, we want to take a moment to thank all of our wonderful clients for their support in our first year. It’s been an absolute privilege to care for your beloved pets and to be a part of your journey.

From our team to your family (both two- and four-legged!), we wish you a Christmas filled with love, joy, and plenty of cuddles.

Don't forget even when we're closed we're still available for emergencies over Christmas and New Year. Call us on the normal number if you need our help at any stage.

Here’s to a happy, healthy, and paw-some 2025! 🍾🥂

Seasons Greetings,
The Berkshire Vet Team

First things first..photos of cute pets that we’ve seen over the last couple of weeks to get your attention! 🐶 Please don’t forget it’s our ‘Refer A Friend’ Raffle Draw to win a Christmas Hamper tomorrow! We will draw it at 4:30pm and attempt to do this live for your amusement! This is your last chance to tell us if you’ve recommended us to someone who has subsequently joined the practice. You’ve got to be in it to win it! Good luck everyone 🐾

We had good intentions of a team Christmas Jumper Day photo today and failed miserably! Instead are a selection of photos of The Berkshire Vet pets doing a much better job of looking suitably festive! If you have any photos of your pets looking festive then join in the fun in the comments! 🎅🏼 🎄 🐾

MEMORIAL WALK UPDATE
We do seem to have a penchant for choosing stormy weekends but we ARE going ahead tomorrow despite Storm Darragh.
Wrap up warm like The Berkshire Vet doggos and we’ll see you tomorrow at 10am. Refreshments and raffle will be inside the practice after the walk.
We look forward to seeing you there 🐾

Please spread the word!

As promised we’re back with another Charity Walk and Talk, what we can’t promise is that the weather will be as nice as last time! The walk will be a memorial walk in memory of loved ones, two or four legged, who are no longer with us. Proceeds from the charity raffle will go to The walk will take place on Sunday 24th November at 9am. Starting at the practice, we will walk to Greenham Common, splitting into two groups for longer and shorter walk options, and .bean will very kindly be providing their services again. We look forward to seeing you there!

We had such fun afternoon with our little visitors from Woodlands Day Nursery yesterday.
As you can see they practiced their bandaging skills, saw Rupert performing lots of tricks and had a tour of the practice.

07/10/2024

🌈 Just a reminder. There are some roadworks happening outside the practice over the next few weeks. 🌈

There are some helpful diversion signs on how to access us during the road closure.

We recommend using the Landrover/Jaguar entrance over the next few weeks until everything is finished!

*Guess the Breed*

Lord Montague was in with us earlier today for a check up 🐈🐈‍⬛️🐾💙

For a bit of Friday fun, can anyone guess his breed in the comments?

🐾Hi everyone I'm Kizzy! 🐾

Please be aware my story contains some surgical content!

I recently visited The Berkshire Vet for surgery as I became very lethargic and off my food. I was diagnosed as having a large abdominal mass which was causing my issues!

The team at The Berkshire Vet surgically removed the mass and now I'm back to my normal happy self, playing with my toys and going on walks. The before and after pictures of my belly will show you just how big it had grown!

My mum says: "Kizzy played for the first time in months today which was amazing.......We cannot thank you guys enough for what you did for her. It's literally taken years off of her."

We as a team are so glad to see Kizzy doing so much better and the change that the surgery has made to her life!

OK so it’s not quite Instagram live and it is 30 minutes late but Naomi did a brilliant job in front of the camera, we don’t know about you guys but we think she missed her calling in showbiz! A little aggressive rummaging in the letterbox but she has drawn our winner! Congratulations to Stacey on winning our Christmas Hamper. Thank you to everyone who entered, and to all of our wonderful clients for your support this year, your kind reviews and recommendations. We are so grateful and are looking forward to the year ahead.

We've had the best weekend (despite the rain) 🌧 meeting lots of faces new and old @newbury_show 🐶 Don't forget you can register on the website! Or call up in person next week and we'd be happy to see you all again! Until next year, Newbury Show 💙🐾

Vicky had the pleasure of microchipping, cuddling and giving treats to a litter of happy labrador puppies. Who doesn't love a labrador puppy? #puppies #labrador #theberkshirevet #independentvet #independentbusiness
