The Best Veterinary Cares in Frampton, Dorset, United Kingdom (2025)

A huge thank you to James & Suzy for their help, understanding and consideration during an increasingly inevitable, but surprisingly unexpected and painful time of saying farewell to our treasured & well loved 15 year old Hardy. I still can’t quite believe how it all rushed up at us so quickly, even though we were now living with many of the signs, before Hardy made it clear to us that this was the moment he needed to say his farewells; before starting his next journey. Even though we weren't all at home, WhatsApp enabled both children to share their love and instruct last cuddles, kisses, strokes and goodbyes before James reassuringly and painlessly, carefully & calmly helped him on his way. We were his family, all in the room, all at home, for our Hardy's moment & final farewell and for that we will all be eternally grateful. Thank you James & Suzy for all the care, compassion and help with all that could be done from start to finish, and your kind words. The Noel Family xx

It’s almost been 2 weeks now since James visited our family home to help our dog Buster who had become suddenly very unwell. A close to 14 year old collie entwined in our lives, each day we learn to live without him here. We can not thank you enough for your support during this heart breaking time for our family. We have so much gratitude for the service you offer, allowing Buster to rest in peace at home surrounded by us all. Best wishes, Sarah.

They say it's 1 of the hardest decisions you make, and they are totally right, but with a heavy heart I made the call. From 1st phone call I was reassured and made to feel calm by James. He listened to Patch's life story and reassure me it was the best thing for him. As for the dreaded day I can not express how peacefull James made it, was able to hold patch as he drifted off snoring away in his own bed. Wasn't intrusive and wasn't rushed just very peaceful. The aftercare was outstanding. Patch wasn't a pet he was a family member, and we couldn't of wished for a better sending off.

As a family, we recently had to make the heartbreaking decision to say goodbye to our beloved 19 year old cat, Gump. We wanted him to be at home as he’d always been such a home boy and we couldn’t bear the thought of him not being on his beloved sofa for his final sleep. We found Fond Farewell after a quick Google search and Suzy was very thoughtful and understanding when I spoke with her on the phone. James called back a little while later to confirm a few details and discuss when we’d like him to visit. As we have 2 secondary school aged daughters we asked for a later visit as we wanted to bring them home first to spend some time with Gump before James visited us, he was very accommodating regarding this. James arrived and took plenty of time to explain, firstly to my husband and myself what would happen, and then our daughters joined us before he began with the process. James was incredibly calm, professional and thoughtful when it came to dealing with not only 2 adults, but 2 heartbroken teenage girls. He never once rushed us and also went to another room whilst we said goodbye one last time as a family, before returning for the final injections. Our beautiful boy, passed away peacefully surrounded by the people who had loved him for 19 years, at home in his favourite spot and we are incredibly grateful that we could do this for him. Thank you Fond Farewell for undertaking, what cannot be an easy task, in such a thoughtful, considerate and kind manner. We will be forever thankful that on such a sad day you were able to make it just that bit easier on us all.
