A big thank you to everyone who participated in our fun dog show at Frome Agricultural & Cheese Show today!

Despite the heavy downpours this afternoon, we had a fantastic day celebrating our 20th year at the show.

We couldn’t have organised the event without the support of Charis and her team from Charismatic Pets, who did an excellent job on the microphone and provided our spectators with some impressive demonstrations. A heartfelt thanks also goes to our staff. 💚

If you’d like to see the photos taken at the event, please visit the Frome Shows website.

We look forward to seeing you again next year! 🐕

Although summer sunshine may be a distant memory for us, Maisie caught some rays just glimpsing through whilst relaxing in the garden, following her routine surgery. 😍☀️

We don’t often get to see Basset Griffon Vendeens, so Patrick’s visit was a real treat for us! 😍

This breed is the tallest of the Basset breeds, originally used for hunting hare & rabbit. Naturally, Patrick did a great job hunting for treats during his visit! 💚

The delightful Pancake came to stay for the day to be neutered. He had a great time exploring the cattery with his nurse, Mel. 😻

Did you know that our nursing team consists of more than 50 nurses? That's a significant number for a primary care veterinary practice in this area.

Each nurse is assigned to a specific shift each day, ensuring our patients benefit from a range of services. The nurse rota includes theatre shifts, consulting shifts, day patient shifts, hospital shifts, twilight shifts, and, of course, night shifts. This system guarantees that your pets receive the best possible care around the clock and provides a proactive practice culture that utilises our nurses' training and skills.

✨Staff story✨

Meet Lana, who belongs to our Receptionist, Christie.

Lana was admitted to hospital for an abdominal scan and fluids as she had a temperature of 40°c and had been losing weight over the last month.

The scan showed a suspected mass on the spleen, so the next step for Lana was a splenectomy. A CT scan was also carried out which helped to provide clearer imaging of where the mass was and also confirmed the mass had not spread to any other organs.

During surgery, our vet Sophie found the mass had adhered to the body wall, which suddenly made the operation more complicated.

Lana was subsequently referred to Cave Veterinary Specialists, who performed the surgery the follow day.

The surgery was successful and a week later the histology results confirmed Lana’s mass was benign! 🙌

Well done, Lana! 💚

At 12 weeks old he took it like a champ, with a little help from a lick-e-lix. 😉
