Happy International Women’s Day 💅🏻
...🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸

Today we’re celebrating the incredible women who make up our team. We feel so lucky to work alongside such inspiring, intelligent and compassionate women every day.

Veterinary medicine is built on dedication, teamwork and heart, and we’re constantly in awe of the women here who pour so much of themselves into caring for animals and supporting each other. From the big wins to the long days, it’s a privilege to stand beside a team of women who are not only amazing professionals, but genuinely kind, supportive humans too.

Thank you for the skill, strength, empathy and laughter you bring to our clinic every day. The animals (and their humans) are so lucky to have you.

Happy International Women’s Day to the wonderful women in our team and to women everywhere. 🌸

Swipe to see this pup’s smile before... their dental procedure!

Just like us, pets can develop dental disease when plaque and tartar build up on their teeth. Over time, this can lead to painful infections, bad breath, loose teeth, and inflamed gums. But it doesn’t stop in the mouth, bacteria from dental disease can travel through the bloodstream and affect important organs like the heart, liver, and kidneys.

A professional dental procedure allows us to:
🐶 Remove plaque and tartar
🦷 Clean above and below the gum line
🔍 Check for damaged or infected teeth
🩻 X-ray the entire mouth
💊 Treat painful dental disease early

The result?
✔️ Fresher breath
✔️ Healthier gums and teeth
✔️ Less pain
✔️ Better overall health and quality of life

Dental care is a big part of keeping our pets happy & healthy and ensuring that their pearly whites continue to ✨ 😄🐾

If you’ve noticed bad breath, red gums, or difficulty chewing, it might be time for a FREE dental check with one of our wonderful nurses.

🐾 Today’s Surgery Spotlight: JPS Surgery 🐾

Today we had a gorgeous puppy in for ...JPS (Juvenile Pubic Symphysiodesis) surgery 💙

What is JPS?
JPS is a preventative orthopaedic surgery performed in young puppies to help reduce the severity of hip dysplasia later in life.

Why does hip dysplasia happen?
Hip dysplasia occurs when the hip joint doesn’t develop correctly as a puppy grows. This can be influenced by genetics, growth rate, body weight, and joint laxity, and over time it can lead to pain, arthritis, and reduced mobility.

Why do we do JPS?
JPS works by gently altering the way the pelvis grows. By closing a growth plate early, it allows the hip sockets to rotate and better cover the femoral heads as the puppy continues to grow.
👉 This can significantly improve hip stability and reduce the risk of painful arthritis later in life.

The best part?
✔️ It’s minimally invasive
✔️ Puppies usually recover quickly
✔️ It can make a huge difference to long-term comfort and quality of life

Early detection and early intervention are key 🐶✨

Maples procedure went wonderfully and it wasn’t long before she was back in the office getting cuddles from the nurses. 💗
