A Tribute - To Winston ❤️🌈

In March this year I lost my best friend & my soul mate, Winston.
He was the inspiration for our centre and the reason we exist.

For 10 years I had the honour of caring for him, through the ups and the downs. I carried him into his twilight years & he taught me healing doesn’t happen alone - it happens with trust and unconditional love.

It wasn’t one way. Winston healed parts of me that no one else could see. He taught me more about myself than anyone else. It was a mutual devotion.

Devotion doesn’t need words to be understood.

To love so fiercely, even though it hurt. I would do it all over again if I meant I could be with him again.

I would choose him in every lifetime. My soul dog ❤️❤️

I promised him I would continue his legacy long after he departs and I’m sticking to that.

I now live my days being “more like Winston” and I still feel his influence and love when I treat my patients… know that my intentions are pure & that I love your dogs as much as I do my own ❤️

Here goes to changing lives, supporting fellow owners & walking together with grace and dignity.

All thanks to him, to Winston 🌈 ❤️

PEA - THE KIDNEY-FRIENDLY STIFFNESS SUPPLEMENT FOR PETS WITH RENAL DYSFUNCTION

NSAID's (Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) are a no-no for stiff pets with renal disease because they risk causing further damage to already compromised kidney tissue.

Collagen supplements high in protein can place an excessive strain on struggling kidneys, unless carefully factored into a tailored diet designed to help maintain renal function without causing an increase in Urea, Creatinine and other waste products in the blood, and a worsening of signs associated with kidney failure.

PEA on the other hand, is highly effective at easing stiff joints and is 100% safe for kidney compromised dogs and cats, making it the perfect first choice for improving quality of life in these circumstances.

OUR STORY..

The Retreat Veterinary Hydrotherapy & Rehabilitation Centre is Swansea’s award winning rehabilitation centre for small animals.

The centre boasts a purpose built Hydrotherapy pool which is heated to 31 degrees celcius and has an easy entry system that allows for safe exit and entry, including those patients suffering from Spinal injuries. In addition, we also have a specialist Underwater Treadmill available, again heated to 31 degrees.

In addition to Hydrotherapy, we offer in-house land based Physiotherapy. The modalities include Low Level Laser, Ultrasound, PMFT and Prescription exercises to name a few.

We are the only centre in South Wales to be approved and regulated by NARCH and IRVAP and one of the few centres in the UK dedicated to small animal pain management.
