Services
House Visits
Our veterinary team provides home visits for Andover residents when appropriate. This service is particularly recommended for end-of-life care, where pets benefit from remaining in familiar surroundings. We require advance notice to schedule visits and will advise if clinic treatment is more suitable for complex procedures.
Pet Vaccinations
We offer comprehensive vaccination programs for dogs, cats, and rabbits. Our core vaccines protect against life-threatening diseases while lifestyle-based recommendations ensure tailored protection. All vaccinations include health checks and automated reminder systems to maintain optimal pet health.
Neutering
Our neutering services include pre-operative consultations and post-operative care. We provide free microchips with dog neutering and offer expert advice on optimal timing. Procedures follow strict welfare guidelines while addressing population control and health benefits for both male and female pets.
Wellness Screening
Annual wellness screens detect early signs of kidney disease, arthritis, and other age-related conditions in pets over five years old. The 30-minute assessment includes blood tests, physical examination, and preventative care recommendations to maintain long-term pet health.
Emergency Services
Foxcotte provides 24-hour emergency veterinary care across our three Hampshire practices. Our experienced team handles critical cases including trauma, poisoning, and acute illness, with immediate access to diagnostic equipment and surgical facilities for life-saving interventions.
