What does 'verified' mean on Vet Verified?
A verified practice appears on the public RCVS register, and we have checked the accreditations shown on its listing. Someone at the practice keeps the page up to date. Practices must meet our criteria to earn the mark. They cannot buy it.
Is the directory free for pet owners to use?
Yes. You can search, filter results, view practice information and read reviews for free. You do not need to create an account or download anything.
How are vets ordered in search results?
Verified practices appear above unclaimed listings. We do not sell paid placement or the top position in search results.
How are listings kept accurate?
We cross-check every practice against the RCVS register and its own website. Verified practices can update their listing when their details change.
I run a vet practice. How do I claim my listing?
Start on the Become Verified page. Verification usually takes 7 to 14 days and does not involve a site visit or surprise inspection.

    Lungworm in Dogs in the UK: How Dogs Catch It, Signs and Prevention

    Lungworm is a serious parasite that dogs can catch by swallowing infected slugs, snails or frogs, often by accident outdoors. It is found across much of the UK and can cause coughing, breathing problems, tiredness, weight loss, bruising, bleeding, seizures or collapse. Contact a vet promptly if your dog shows any of these signs, and get urgent help for breathing trouble, major bleeding, collapse, seizures or sudden blindness. Reduce risk by stopping your dog from eating slugs, snails and frogs, bringing toys and chews indoors, and asking your vet about prescription lungworm protection. If your dog eats a slug or snail, call your vet for advice and watch for signs of illness over the next few weeks.

    Emergency Vet Costs in the UK: What Affects the Bill and What to Ask

    Emergency vet fees in the UK vary by practice, time and the care a pet needs. Call a vet straight away if your pet is unwell, then ask about the first charge, likely treatment costs and payment options. Vets should explain choices and costs, and you can agree a spending limit where time allows. Insurance, finance and some charities may help with costs, but urgent care should not wait while you check these.
