Charities we support

Our colleagues fundraise for Support Dogs, often pushing themselves out of their comfort zones, to participate in activities such as skydiving, abseiling, endurance hiking, running, cycling and cold-water swimming.   Our fantastic customers help us too, through donating towards our sponsored challenges, supporting our surgery open days, buying cakes at our bake sales, and opting to donate 10p as part of their card machine transactions.  We’ve raised enough money to sponsor Roxy, our own Support Dogs puppy, and will watch her progress from a tiny bundle of energy to a fully-trained assistance dog, who will make a huge difference to her future owner’s life.

Every year, The Pet Vet funds one Vet or Nurse to work for 2 weeks as a volunteer at an overseas animal charity.  Projects have included Street Dogs in Sri Lanka, Pacific Animal Shelter in Fiji and Floating Doctors in Panama.  The charities we support rely on volunteers to help treat sick and injured animals, and support population control through neutering programmes.
