I am so greatful to everyone at Dovecote vets for saving my cats life. When every cat owners worst nightmare came true on Sunday night our usual vet wasn’t open, so we rushed to Dovecote and I’m so grateful we did. After 2 emergency surgeries for 2 open fractures and 4 nights at Dovecote we finally got to bring our boy home yesterday. I will forever be greatful to Adrian and the rest of the team for giving Dexter a second chance at life. No matter how many times I rang a snivelling mess to check on him they were nothing but compassionate and assured me he was having so many cuddles and lots of fuss. They were completely gracious to my financial stress and eased my mind so much. Words can’t explain how happy I am he’s still here with us and it’s because of the wonderful team at Dovecote, a huge thank you from me and Dexter 💙🐾

Had an amazing experience with Justine recently when my dog was referred for an endoscopy. As young owners, River being our baby and first pet, we really needed answers to all of our questions. Justine gave that to us, she spent an hour before and an hour after all her testing to keep us at ease and explain everything in our terms which over the course of 2 months of Rivers bad health, we haven't ever experienced. Also shout out to the two lovely ladies on reception, no question was too much of an ask when it came to insurance claims etc. Wish I lived closer so these were my dogs go to vets. Photo posted of River so you remember she appreciates you all. Thank You

Our boy dave

Bit of a novel but worth reading,if you have any doubts.

We picked our little boy,Dave,up at 12wks.

With great excitement,he was to be in our minds our last dog,especially at our time of life.

We expect him to have a long happy and healthy life,after all he was a puppy.

He presented with skin issues,so we embarked on weekly some times daily visits to our local vet.

Whilst trying to treat his skin,he picked up so many other infections.

Its was deemed he was not a healthy boy,and suggested maybe we should let him go.

As he unfortunately became so scared of the vets,then his only defence was to become aggressive with them.

We then asked to be referred to donnington dermatologist specialist.

Our journey began.

We did as Emily told us to the letter,

We made massive progress with his skin.

Emily helped to control his terrible itching and discomfort.

And proceed with caution,as she had been warned from other vets,that he was aggressive.

We were so grateful.

But still we were not convinced that something was bubbling away in the background

He declined quickly,and Emily feared too,that there was something not right.

So referred us to internal medicine.

Dave and ourselves were instantly put at ease with Justine and her team.

But he was extremely poorly,before Christmas we almost,feared that this was it,we would have to say our goodbyes.

Justine never lossed faith and everyone was extremely supportive.

Then after all there patience, kindness and extream knowledge,the breakthrough came.

We had a diagnosis and a treatment plan.

our boy Dave,melt when ever he see Justine.

The big so called aggressive puppy,just turns to mush.

These people are truly extraordinary and I could write a novel,about the pain that we have all gone through.

But it all comes down to our immeasurable gratification for saving our boy Dave's life.

Thankyou so much everyone,including the fantastic receptionist who always take time to ask,if he is ok today.

Great first experience yesterday with my 3 amigos. Very thorough, professional, helpful and friendly. Big shout out to Mandy for persevering in obtaining my dogs clinical histories, which was like pulling teeth, thank you. Thank you also to Katie who was professional, thorough, helpful and informative ( It was nice to see a familiar face ). To the receptionist who assisted me in completing the Healthy Pet Club forms and booking further appointments, thank you. The hospital was clean and everyone was very welcoming. Ample parking. Couldn’t fault it. Very happy :)
