Caring for your pets
through the pandemic
With everything that’s been
happening recently, it’s all too
easy to forget about the health
of our animals. So many practices
have closed or been forced to make
cuts, making regular veterinary care
difficult. Just because the world has
ground to a halt doesn’t mean claws
stop growing or teeth clean themselves.
Then there’s the more important preventative treatments such as
vaccinations and worming. These regular trips to the vet are what
keep our furry family members healthy. That regular contact
enables us to notice any changes that might be an indication of
something more serious.
Here at Heronden, we’re proud of the fact that we’ve managed to stay
open and offer a full service to our clients - though you might have
been the one left shivering in the car while your pet was inside in the
warm. We’ve also been able to deal with pretty much everything that’s
been thrown at us - from broken legs
to tumour surgery. That’s because,
unlike a lot of practices, we deliver
referral-level diagnostics and treatment
in-house. So you don’t have to wait for - or travel to - appointments at
referral centres.
We already offer orthopaedic and soft-tissue surgery, ultrasonography,
radiology, full laboratory analysis, even acupuncture. And now we’re
expanding our Nurse Clinics. These can be booked free of charge for
any little worries you might have, as well as weight and dental checks
or advice on diet and nutrition.
If you’re one of the many people who have taken their first steps into
pet ownership during lockdown, we’d love to see you at one of our
free Nurse Clinics. lt’s so important to
make regular vet visits with your new
friend, and we pride ourselves on being
with you through every stage of your pet’s life.
It’s been clear during the pandemic just how important pets are to us
- for friendship, for company and for solace. It’s only right that we
should look after them as they look after us.
