Welcome to Village a family-run veterinary practice providing top-notch care for pets in your local area! If you're not familiar with us or want to know more about how we got started, we'd love to tell you a little bit about ourselves.

It all began in 1980 when Karl Cosgrave bought the veterinary practice in Dunshaughlin, and we've been caring for pets ever since!

Whether your furry friend needs a routine check-up or emergency care, we're here to help. Give us a call or book an appointment online today – we can't wait to meet you and your pets!

We're looking forward to welcoming you to our practices, The Village Vets Team.

Hey everyone,

We are excited to announce that we're taking part in a
fundraiser to support Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland. One of our team
members' brother is doing a 5-day trekking & sledding challenge in
Norway & Sweden to raise funds for this amazing charity.

Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland receives thousands of enquiries every
year and currently has only 14 dogs in training. These dogs are
trained for 2 years and provided to families free of charge. As a
non-profit organization, they rely solely on donations and
fundraisers.

To help raise funds, we've organized cake and coffee meetings across
all our branches. We've had some lovely coffee mornings, and our
bakery skills have been put to good use.

We would love your support, so please give us a thumbs up to show your
support for this cause. We hope to make this an annual tradition.

If you would like to support Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland, head to
their website https://www.autismassistancedogsireland.ie to donate.
They're doing amazing work, and every little bit helps.
