One more day! Tomorrow we’re heading to Downing Street to hand in our Open Doors petition calling for a stronger law on access refusals.

Guide dog owners are being turned away from businesses because they are illegally told their dog isn’t welcome 🦮

Last chance to act - will you help us get to 60,000 signatures and show your support? Sign here 👉 https://bit.ly/49Kdnex

The first placard reads "Everyone should be allowed in pubs, restaurants, shops and taxis and the second placard reads "Tired of being left in the cold by taxis"]

Grief can be especially difficult when people don't understand it and this and many other factors may lead to you not being able to properly express or process it. https://theralphsiteshop.com/what-is-masked-grief/?fbclid=IwAR25Mr5XG3SuLp89zQh_GWubbiyVXJBpjOrPHOuLlXcSHBqcgMQ4eS8Jex0

What is masked grief? 1 Reply Although grief is a normal and natural reaction to losing anyone or thing in life that matters to us, including a much-loved pet, we all handle grief differently. Some people process grief head-on, giving all of their emotions space to be expressed, while others try to....

Happy International Puppy Day everyone🥰couldn't resist posting these obviously very scary😅 puppies...

We are so lucky to have Jess, our wonderful veterinary receptionist, who has been supporting our team now for 4 years! 🥰Jess you do your job every day with so much compassion and heart. We are proud to call you a member of the team and are very much looking forward to the next years. #veterinaryreceptionist #workanniversary

We had a photoshoot last week for our new website. Thank you to Rich from #alexstylesphotography and to Pat Rochelle with her dog Maggie for their unwavering support. Also a big thanks to Jenny Prosser with her dogs Pickle and Bailey. Jenny you are always there for us 😍. Watch the video to see how it went down with the models in play

Staff pet Sonnie is having a lovely time trying to catch ALL the snow! 😆 We would love to see your pet's enjoying the snow too if you would like to share!? Keep warm everyone 🫠💗❄️

None of us pet carers want to think about that last goodbye ahead of time. At Dignipets we find it important that you know we exist as a veterinary hospice service. We have been searching for years for a way to explain what we do at Dignipets and finally feel we have made some progress with this new animation. It is a gentle way of showing any pet carer ahead of an end of life visit what to expect. #petloss #dignipets #hospicevets Special thanks to KiiRO Creative and Andre Schoorlemmer for making it happen...

This is our receptionist Jess and her little helper Minky. This week we are celebrating Jess being a receptionist with Dignipets for 3 years! Minky the cat is 16 years old and is on Jess her desk every day, so I suppose she deserves just as much praise. Thank you, Jess, for everything you do. We are looking forward to the next 3 years🥰

Pen surprise!!!

Did you know we sent and handed out quite a few Dignipets pens last week when we sent our Newsletter to all practices to celebrate Veterinary Receptionists Appreciation Day. However, we forget to tell them the pens are biodegradable and have a marker on the back. Not even our own vets knew as demonstrated in this video by Merel!!

2000 Likes! Thank you so much for your support. ❤️ We really want everyone to know they have that option when it comes to their pet's end of life care to be at home in their pet's own environment. We hope we can also raise awareness that hospice and palliative care can apply to pets as well as people. Our aim is to make your pet as comfortable as possible in familiar surroundings. 💗

Pet Memorial Walk 2020

Last week we announced the 3 charities we would be supporting with any unused medications that are donated to us. Here is some further information about the first of these charities, Himalayan Animal Rescue Trust (HART): HART works with street animals in Nepal. Some of these animals have no owners and must fend for themselves to survive. Others are partially adopted but their owners do not have spare funds for veterinary medicines. The vets at HART are able to make use of donated medications for animals provided they are in date. These supplies can help improve treatments and contribute to better health and outcomes for animals in need.

We are Dignipets

Our pets devote their whole life to us. They give us love and attention and in turn we take care of them as cherished family members. This includes supporting them when they are faced with disease or old age. At Dignipets we believe with the right veterinary advice this support is best given in the comfort of their family home.

We are an independent veterinary practice consisting of a team of mobile veterinary surgeons and nurses in the West Midlands. We specialise in compassionate visits for pain assessments, hospice and palliative care and dignified home euthanasia. Together with your existing family veterinary practice we will create an individualised care plan for your pet to achieve the very best care at home.

Circumstances are often too stressful for either you or your pet to make the journey to a veterinary clinic. Our vets and nurses will make a plan together with you looking at all aspects of your pet’s needs and care. We will also help you and your family implementing this plan in the weeks to come and if needed guide you through the process of making decisions.

We are here to help make sure their last moments are at home with you.
