It was a pleasure to meet beautiful 5-month-old Rottweiler, Lula, during her visit to our Westbury surgery.
She certainly won plenty of hearts with her lovely nature! 😍

Poor Clemmie came in to see our vet, Rose, after being stung by a bee! 🐝

Bee stings to the face and throat can be particularly concerning, as severe swelling can affect breathing.

Fortunately, Clemmie’s owners acted quickly and brought her straight in. Rose checked the area, made sure the sting had been removed, and the reaction settled within 30 minutes.

What to do if your pet is stung:

• Remove the stinger (don’t squeeze)
• Soothe the sting
• Monitor closely for any allergic reaction
• Contact your vet immediately if you are at all concerned

You’ll be pleased to know Clemmie made a full recovery! ❤️‍🩹

At just 11 weeks old, Lottie has recently joined her new forever family and visited us for her second vaccination.

She was an absolute superstar during her visit and we can’t wait to watch her grow! 💚

Behind every patient is a nurse giving their skill, compassion, and heart. 💚

Long hours, quiet moments of reassurance, lifesaving care, and unwavering dedication… thank you to our nurses for the work they do, 24/7.

Thanks also to Sarah, for capturing a behind-the-scenes glimpse of what it’s like to be an RVN at Garston Veterinary Group, in celebration of the BVNA (The British Veterinary Nursing Association) Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month.

⚠️ HOT WEATHER WARNING ⚠️

Temperatures are set to rise over the bank holiday weekend and into next week. Please help keep your pets safe during this heatwave.

🐾 Walk dogs early morning or late evening only.
If you’re unsure whether it’s too hot, it probably is. It’s far safer to skip walks altogether during extreme heat. Short toilet breaks outside are fine and won’t harm them for a few days.

🔥 Top tip:
If the pavement is too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for their paws!

🚨 Watch for signs of heatstroke:
• Excessive panting
• Drooling
• Vomiting or diarrhoea
• Rapid heart rate
• Weakness or lethargy
• Seizures
These can escalate quickly, so act fast.

🐇 Small pets need extra care too
Outdoor pets must always have:
• Shade
• Fresh water
• A cool environment
Move hutches to shaded areas, use parasols, and cover runs with large towels, add upside down cardboard boxes to provide shade from direct sun.

📞 If you’re worried, don’t wait!
Heatstroke can become life-threatening very quickly. Please call your usual surgery straight away if you have any concerns.

Stay safe and keep your pets cool 😎
