🐾 Hannah’s babies! This is a photo from a few years ago now, the gang together when Jack (the big guy) had come to the UK from Australia with Hannah & her husband, Alex.

🐾 We learn so much from each individual we’re lucky enough to share our lives with! Hannah certainly learned a lot from this bunch! 🥰

💬 Behaviour is communication. At Donovan Veterinary Behaviour Practice, we will help you understand what your animal is really saying, so it feels less confusing or frustrating… and more like a conversation you feel confident being part of, rather than overwhelmed by 💙

We couldn’t resist sharing this adorable photo of Sweep celebrating her 2nd birthday last month at daycare 🐶🐾🎉

We are loving working with Sweep and her wonderful humans who are doing so much to help Sweep! She came to us for some help with barking at home. Huge thanks to for a referral & diagnosis of hip dysplasia meaning Sweep’s now on treatment for this 🙌

And shoutout to her daycare fam for this cute pic ✨

A big win for Pluto and his amazing family! ✨

Pluto is a young English Bull Terrier living with ongoing musculoskeletal pain. His family have worked hard to find the right mix of pain relief and physio to keep him comfortable.

He’d been having trouble completing walks, sometimes avoiding them and his harness, alongside some high-arousal behaviours — all while also managing skin and GI issues.

With the support of our team and his dedicated family, Pluto has made fantastic progress 💪

Here he is learning to relax in his new buggy — a mobile Safe Haven that lets him rest when he needs and gives his family a safe, stress-free way to get him home 💙

So proud of this team! 👏🐶

Success Story: Toast & Marmalade 🐾🧡

These 7-year-old sisters started showing signs of conflict, with Toast rushing at Marmalade and sometimes biting.

With support from our team and their amazing humans, a plan was put in place: baby gates, separate spaces, and slow reintroductions — and things began to improve. 💪

One of the breakthroughs? Our team noticing that Toast seemed uncomfortable. X-rays confirmed hip dysplasia, and once she started pain relief, her behaviour towards Marmalade improved even more — helping the sisters reconnect and bringing harmony back to the home. 💛

If you’re experiencing any behavioural changes with your animal, get in touch with our team ([email protected]) and we’d love to help.
