On Sunday 13 June 2010, David Constantine, Abigail, Debbie and Marina flew the Grove Lodge flag at the Dogs Trust Open Day in Shoreham. Marina, Debbie and Abigail showed off their gazebo building skills, while DC kindly kept everyone supplied with teas! Our doggy lucky dip was very popular and a bag of treats was handed out to every dog who could do a trick (and all who couldn’t actually - a happy face and a waggy tail is good enough for us!).
It was lovely to be out and about chatting to everyone and to meet so many delightful dogs! One of our vets, Emma Robertson was having a day out and ended up looking at a dog with a tick and DC examined a German Shepherd with a cut tongue!
There were very impressive displays by police dogs and a fun dog show with a wide variety of classes including best rescue dog and waggiest tail.
You can see from the pictures that a fun time was had by all and hopefully Dogs Trust raised lots of money for their fabulous kennels at Shoreham.

This is a bit of pure self indulgence – it made me laugh a lot so I thought I’d share it! Enjoy!

Good news for all cat lovers! Grove Lodge in Tarring Road is now running a clinic specifically for cats every Monday afternoon.
This offers your cat a calm, stress-free environment without the fear of dogs barking or peering into the cat carrier!
The clinic will be run by Colleen Rehbein, who joined us recently. Colleen graduated from the University of Queensland in 2001. After completing further training in Animal Behaviour and Feline Medicine, she made the move from sunny Australia to the UK where she has been practicing for the past five years.
Colleen has always had a special interest in feline patients and is currently working towards the RCVS Certificate in Feline Medicine.
She also has an interest in dentistry and likes to keep our patients’ teeth in tip-top condition!
Outside of work Colleen can often be found running long miles in the countryside, playing guitar or chilling out at home with her three delightful moggies – Lestat, Pablo and Tenuto.
Call our Tarring Branch on 01903 503444 for more advice and to book an appointment.
