Your clinic team comes to work each day wanting to help animals (and keep their owners happy as well!). When things don't go according to plan, what should you do..?
But as happens in any business, customer complaints do arise from time to time. We explain what to do (and what not to do) if something is bothering you.
At the Vets is an independent clinic in Christchurch, and they’re welcoming new client registrations 🐱🐶🙂

"Vets are expensive!" We're pretty sure you’ve heard someone complain about the cost of veterinary care. You’ve maybe said it yourself.

What treats do vets and vet nurses share with their own pets? Check out this fun video from the team at Franklin Vets Pets 🐶 🐱 ps what does Whisky really think about carrots?! 😂
Who's behind ? We’re a bunch of people, from various organisations, who want to support all the wonderful veterinary teams out there.
We know how passionate, hardworking and caring they are – because we work alongside them every day.
Thank you for joining us!

was first launched in April 2022. Dedicated veterinary teams continued caring for our animals during COVID. But increased workloads and vet shortages - coupled with some unreasonable behaviour from members of the public - was making a demanding job even more stressful.
We wanted to turn that tide. Vets everywhere deserve the public’s support for the amazing work they do. That’s why our slogan is: Your vet cares, let’s care back.
Thanks for supporting our campaign!

“And in the blue corner…!” A slightly embarrassed Theo 🙂🐶 Well done Brittnee and team at Selwyn Veterinary Centre
Theo vs Boxing Glove Strap 😳
Theo was working so hard on his boxing form, he “accidentally” ate the glove strap 🥊
Luckily we were able to induce vomiting & vet nurse Brittnee was there to catch it all! 🫢
We love this definition! 💕 thanks for sharing Franklin Vets Pets
Happy World Veterinary Day!🐶🐱🐭🐹🐰
Today we celebrate our amazing team of over 60 veterinarians for their dedication to improving animal welfare and health.
Thank you for your compassion, expertise, and tireless commitment to our beloved pets, equine companions and farm animals.🐾💙
🎉 Today is 2024 World Veterinary Day! 🐾
The theme is “Veterinarians are essential health workers.” And here's what it means...
We all know the wonderful work vets do to keep our pets and animals healthy. But did you know the profession is also vital for protecting people, society and the planet?
As well as safeguarding our food, veterinarians protect humans from zoonotic diseases (that transfer from animals to humans). They’re also our first and best line of defence against biosecurity threats.
For both people and animals worldwide, they truly are our heroes!
❤️🐾

We had this cheeky gull brought in by a concerned onlooker who saw it get clipped by a car.
Luckily, no injuries were found, and after recovering from the shock and having a good meal, the gull went back to its flock the next day!
We are available to help with wildlife, and have a network of support to assist us as well.
As always, keeping yourself safe is the number one priority when trying to assist wildlife, and if you're not sure what to do please call for advice.
We are so lucky to live in a place with such diverse wildlife 💙
Barrowman and Goodman Vets are planning their next trip to help the animals of Nuie, in conjunction with non-profit organization The Rock Vets Niue 💕👏
MASSIVE FUNDRAISING SALE - Veterinary trip to Niue.
All thanks to Natural Pet Food Group!!!
Feline freeze-dried food and treats & Canine wet pouches are available at MASSIVELY REDUCED PRICES. CASH sales in shop only.
Barrowman Goodman Vets & Prey Pet Food are sending David & Natasha over to Niue in August to help with the veterinary work load on the island.
Niue has no veterinary team on the island. The Niuean people & their pets rely on volunteer vets & nurses who use their own personal funds and annual leave to work for periods of time over the year. These trips are organised by The Rock Vets Niue - a non profit organisation (https://www.facebook.com/TheRockVets).
During these visits the cats & dogs can be desexed, treated for any outstanding conditions such as fractured legs, dental problems & eye issues. Routine health checks & vaccinations are also done.
We are looking for help with funding for the airfares & accommodation. Any funds raised above these costs will be donated to The Rock Vets.
Come & grab yourself an awesome bargain and help out a great cause.
A great initiative in South Canterbury, supported by Timaru's Family Vet👏
***help the ducks fundraiser***
I have made up some wee bags of grain to be fed to our wild ducks ♡
This will help our wild ducks get fed better food while at the same time making a little bit of much needed money for the bird rescue :)
For a $2 donation you can grab a wee bag of grain so you and/or your family can go feed it to our wild ducks around Timaru :)
This grain is alot better for them than bread is as bread can cause a whole heap of health issues not just internally to the ducks system but it can also play a part in the growth of harmful algae that can then make any bird/animal that feeds/drinks from that water source very sick. So you wont just be helping the rescue out, youll also be potentially saving alot of lives :D
All your support is much appreciated ♡
Fantastic community support for this new clinic! 🎉❤️

Happy World Veterinary Day! ❤️ This World Veterinary Day, we ask that you treat your veterinary teams with respect, and with kindness. #yourvetcares
Regardless of who owns the clinic they work in – whether independent or corporate – every vet we’ve ever met has joined this incredible profession for the same reason. They care about animals – it’s more than just a job for them, and they wake up every morning wanting to provide the best care. The same applies to all the fantastic veterinary nurses, practice managers and teams. Check out our video to hear what they have to say. #yourvetcares

Congratulations to South Wairarapa Veterinary Services for their amazing efforts to reduce their carbon footprint! From a tree planting day to in-clinic recycling measures and ride sharing, their contribution to climate change initiatives are huge and commendable! ♻️
Vets love their job, but it can be an emotional roller-coaster – and they can’t always leave their work at the door. Our vets share some of the highs and lows, which includes providing beloved pets with a dignified end-of-life. #yourvetcares
We asked our vets this question and found one thing in common - they all knew they'd be a vet from a very young age! Check out our video: "why did I become a vet?"
Did you know that a vet clinic is just like a mini-hospital - complete with surgical rooms, expensive equipment, X-rays and in-house laboratories? (but unlike human hospitals or GPs, vets don't receive any government funding). Our latest video gives you a glimpse behind the scenes.
When you're grateful for the amazing care provided by your vet, what's the best way to say 'thank you'? In our latest video, our vets explain what really makes their day!
Today is World Veterinary Day! And we’re celebrating with a shout-out to all the wonderful veterinary teams out there. Let’s show our vets how much we appreciate them. #yourvetcares
FEBRUARY 11 - international day of women and girls in science <3 Did you know that around 75% of people who enter the veterinary science degree in NZ are women? 🤯 We're proud to work alongside a number of inspiring, dedicated and driven women in veterinary medicine in New Zealand, who as agents of change embrace this year's theme of “Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion: Water Unites Us”. Veterinary clinics are large consumers of water, and as care takers of animals, people, and the earth that supports us we recognize our part to play in the management and conservation of this precious resource. There are so many little ways in which you can reduce your consumption... Do you have any tips for how you save water at home, or at your veterinary practice? 💧#internationaldayofwomeninscience #womeninveterinarymedicine #sustainability #sustainabilitytips #sustainabilitygoals #sustainabilityissexy #keepnewzealandbeautiful
