🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- Ask for an itemised estimate before treatment to stay across costs, as pricing feedback was mixed.
- If your pet has an urgent issue, call ahead—several reviewers were seen immediately in emergencies.
- Enquire about after‑hours support or the possibility of a house visit if you need help outside standard hours.
- For suspected ear problems, expect a swab and microscope check—bring notes on symptoms and any prior treatments.
- If bringing in injured wildlife, obtain a WIRES case number first to streamline handover and care.
