To celebrate the opening of our Durrington branch in Palatine Road, we are having an Open Day this Saturday. Everyone is welcome to come along from 11 am to 2 pm and have a look around the surgery. There will be a raffle (tickets available from the branch now!) with prizes including Hills food and a tour around the Hospital in Broadwater. A Hills representative will be available to discuss any dietary queries you have and if you order a bag of Hills T/D on the day (for your dog’s/cat’s teeth), it will be half price! There will also be free goodie bags and refreshments. The partners, David Constantine and Andrew Ash and the new permanent vet, Richard Whittington will also be there. Look forward to seeing you there!

The loss of our beloved pets is a traumatic event, sometimes made worse by the feeling that we cannot show we are upset as others will think ‘it’s only an animal’. For most of us, however, our pets are a large part of our family and their loss leaves us very grief stricken.
At Grove Lodge, we have staff trained to help you with your bereavement, so please do feel you can call us and ask for help in dealing with your loss.
I thought it would be a nice idea for everyone to share some happy stories about their loved ones in a ‘Book of Remembrance’, so we can smile at the lovely memories our pets gave us. Please send me an email on abigail@grovelodgevets.co.uk and include a picture. I will be posting them on the blog and look forward to reading about your pets’ fun times! Pictured is my much loved German Shepherd, Juno, who we sadly lost almost 2 years ago. Here she is standing on her favourite beach in Cornwall, enjoying the sun and surf. She absolutely loved swimming - almost as much as she loved sausages and barbecues! We still miss her very much, but we have such wonderful memories of her great life.
Dogs Trust also have some very useful advice and information on their website regarding the loss of your dog.
