In the reception area we have weighing scales for dogs; these may be used by clients any time we are open to keep an eye on your dog’s weight. Please let us record this for you on your pet’s record.

There is a comfortable and welcoming reception area for you and your pets. We have a small selection of dog and cat diets, however, there are many high quality diets available, so please let us know if you wish to order a specific diet for your pet. Orders are generally with us within 24hrs.
