    The vets and staff have always been amazing with all of our dogs that we have brought into the surgery for treatment or a health check, the vets have worked really hard with the two sister rescue girls that we have to help them feel at ease, which is not easy considering the anxieties they both have. And when it came to the time that we had to say goodbye, the support we had at this time was so amazing, and a huge thank you to Jenny and the team.
