The plan covers vaccinations, parasite treatments, and routine check-ups with two veterinary consultations included annually. Available for cats and dogs at tiered pricing based on animal size, it provides year-round flea, tick, and worming treatments alongside discounted neutering services. This structured approach helps maintain consistent animal health through scheduled interventions.

Specialised veterinary support for agricultural animals includes herd health planning, pregnancy diagnosis, and artificial insemination programmes. Our on-site facilities accommodate sheep and calves within a 30-mile service radius, with capabilities for caesareans and vasectomies. The team provides metabolic profiling and parasite control strategies tailored to farming operations, combining clinical expertise with practical agricultural knowledge to enhance livestock productivity and welfare.
