Weight management clinics

These specialist weight clinics give advice on the best way to tackle any issues, whether your pet is underweight or overweight. Obesity is an increasing problem in our pets and can lead to, or worsen, many health problems such as arthritis, diabetes and heart conditions.

We know managing our pets’ weight can be challenging, so we provide regular weight checks and discuss different ways to help reduce or maintain your pet’s weight, such as exercise.

Senior pet clinic

For those registered with The Healthy Pet Club as part of the six month checks.

It’s natural that pets face more health risks as they age, just like us. So, as our animal clients get older, we like them to have regular health checks. Cats from age 11 and dogs from five years (large breeds) and eight years (smaller breeds) are our “senior citizens”.

We’ll give your pet a proper “top to tail” exam, where we look for early signs of kidney/liver disease, arthritis, dental disease and tumours, blood pressure, and others. Your pet’s long-term wellbeing is our first priority, so, if we are concerned with any of our findings, we will refer you onto a vet.

Just like us, the sooner we detect any problems, the more we can do to help.

Fleas, ticks and worming treatments

Prevention is definitely cheaper than cure when it comes to flea, tick and worm treatments. But there are so many different brands that do different things and often need to be administered differently. Which one is right for your pet and how often do you need to use them?

In our specialist clinics, we’ll talk you through all the options and demonstrate the cheap, easy way to remove ticks should your pet ever get one.

Giving your pet regular flea and worm treatment is important for you, your pet and the environment. Get some expert advice today.

Kitten and puppies club

For those registered with The Healthy Pet Club.

Getting a new puppy or kittens can be a very exciting time and we are here to help. To give them the best start and help keep them happy and healthy, we keep an eye on their weight, discuss neutering, talk about and administer flea and worm treatment, get them socialised by coming into the vet practice, demonstrate dental care and discuss behaviour.

Neutering clinic

For those registered with The Healthy Pet Club as part of the six month checks.

We understand that bringing your pet in for neutering can be quite worrying. All our nurses can provide advice on neutering and discuss the benefits with you. We can also go through with you what the procedure involves and help discuss aftercare, so you can sure it is absolutely the best option for your pet.

During adolescence and after neutering, our pets often require a change in diet to maintain their body condition; we’ll talk to you about that, too.

Nail clipping and grooming

Our nurses can keep your pets’ paws in good shape with nail clipping. Minor grooming procedures eg ear epilation or knot removing (dematting) can also be done with a nurse appointment.

Blood sampling

Qualified nurses may take blood samples if recommended by a vet. We recommend regular blood samples for all older animals and those on certain medications.
