“We have a highly trained team of individuals who specialise devoted to providing a high standard of care for large and small animal patients. Our vets and nursed tend to get emotionally invested with owners and their animals, checking up on them even on time off, and you don’t see that with corporate businesses.”

“During an eventful night. Mum Ros was brought in needing a C section due to birthing difficulties. I luckily was able to get the puppies out in time, as it was a real race against the clock. Nurse Pamela from the out of hours team that night was then on hand to resuscitate the puppies following the C section and you can see them with mum just an hour after the birth.”
