Now more than ever, we have been working collaboratively, to adapt our service, to ensure we're still able to provide outstanding care and support for both our patients and clients in this tough and uncertain time. 

It’s Mental Health Awareness Week here in the UK, so we wanted to explore the connection between pet ownership and mental health.

On this VE Day, it will be 75 years since the guns fell silent at the end of the war in Europe. The 75th anniversary will provide us with an opportunity to reflect on the bravery and sacrifice of people from all walks of life. It is equally important to consider the role animals played and how they were touched by war.

We love dogs; they’re amazing companions - fun, loving, and they bring us lots of joy. But for some people their dog is more than just a pet – they’re a lifeline. Most of us are familiar with Guide Dogs, who are bred and trained to help people with visual impairments navigate their way around outdoors. But did you know that Hearing Dogs also exist, to support people with hearing loss?

If there is one thing that many dogs look forward to each day, it is getting out of the house for a walk. Whereas this used to be plentiful, the arrival of COVID-19 and the resulting Government measures that followed, has caused changes to the routines of both pets and owners alike.

May is Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month. This campaign, led by the British Veterinary Nursing Association (BVNA), aims to raise awareness of the importance of the role of the veterinary nursing profession to the public.

The Blacks Vets, veterinary team is here for your beloved pets, all year round, and despite the current circumstances remain committed to quality and excellence in everything we do - which is why we wanted to ‘paws’ this World Veterinary Day to say thank you
