Hi guys n girls, could someone advise on a reputable vet please?

I seem to remember vet*pets having a bad reputation on here but cannot find the thread.

We pick our new pup up next week and need to register.

Thankyou

If you're talking of Vets 4 Pets on Woodchurch Road, they've been fine with my dog since I registered her earlier this year. They've been there a while and always seem to be busy when I go, so that must be a good testament smile
What type of puppy are you getting?
Posted By: turnip Re: Vet advice plese? - 1st Jun 2014 8:05pm
Vets 4 Pets are very good we've found. We've had a couple of things up with our pup and Matt has sorted him out quickly. He's brilliant.

We've used Broadway in Wallasey the last 5 years and found them to be great, my boy had to have a growth removed from his nose a couple of years back and they did a fantastic job.

Vets 4 Pets in Prenton have been brilliant with our 2 cats. One of our cats gets very stressed in the vets but she is fairly relaxed around Sean.
Posted By: Martin1943 Re: Vet advice plese? - 1st Jun 2014 8:47pm
No-one better than Broadway Vets, in my opinion. Can't do too much for you. Not as cheap as some others, but much better hours Seven days 9am to 6.30 at three sites, and superb callouts.
Posted By: _Ste_ Re: Vet advice plese? - 1st Jun 2014 9:21pm
Thanks everyone i will look them all up, sarah wanted to go with vets 4 pets but with me recalling a problem on here i was put off.


i will read up on all the vets suggested.

We have bought a Rottweiler as i have experience with the breed.
We can show him if we want as he is from a 6 generation kc registered breed, he comes with a months insurance, a pet pack, a family tree certificate and the registration documents.

We seen the parents and the granparents, they are of a lovely nature, big boned and a big bloodline of champion crufts winners.

So we really want to pick the right vet for him.

He is 9 weeks old, photos from today..

Meet Chop smile

Matt at vets 4 pets prenton left Broadway to set up own franchise in prenton . We followed him to vets4pet, And in my opinion he and shaun the best on wirral . Have been under Matts care with cat and dog for 13 years. They have great offers on like vaccination for life and bug packs .

Thanks to everyone for your help on this matter.

We have decided to go with vets 4 pets.

We are getting 2 health checks, a years insurance and both his innoculations all for only £45 too.

Thanks again.
Posted By: Kev30x Re: Vet advice plese? - 3rd Jun 2014 9:20pm
Great choice Ste mate! £45 is a steal for all that and Chop is in very good hands.

Hope you & family have many happy years together with Cutey Chop. happy

Thanks everyone, we took chop for his first needle yesterday.

The vets is outstanding, gleaming clean with lots of space (no overcrowding) and the vet we seen was really nice.

Vet said he is extremely large for his age but he is very health with a strong heart and obdient for his age.

What vet did you decide to take him too?
He is a lovely looking pup.And very large for his age indeed.
Posted By: _Ste_ Re: Vet advice plese? - 10th Jun 2014 12:20pm
We went with vets for pets.

He goes back in 2 weeks for his other needle and we are having him chipped. Only £17 to chip him.

Vet reckons he will be almost twice the size by then (unlees we misheard him) omg

Well done xx

Everyone loves 'puppy's ' both are big lad's, wish we had known our sally as a pup ...
Posted By: Sarah_ZR Re: Vet advice plese? - 11th Jun 2014 9:51pm
Thanks guys,yeahs hes deffo gunna be a hand full even as im rushed off my feet as it is lol
Was advised by vet to take atleast 4 weeks off work for training ect still working a little but all my time on him and both mine and stes at evenings.
Dont want to blow my own trumpet but yeah hes a stunner hes a credit to us,very quick learner too and crafty!!! Lol
Starting to let him in the garden so hes beeing really mischevious at the min
He has me and family in stiches things he dose
His latest thing started today is taking the weights out the blinds and putting them
On his bed,been wondering where they had gone till ste said tonight lol
As soon as we get him out and start tiering him out the better altho we gunna have huge muscles on us after walking h when he gets big lol x
Posted By: RUDEBOX Re: Vet advice plese? - 11th Jun 2014 10:00pm
LOL, he sounds a handful!!!

Be careful with the exercising though. Our vet said 5 mins exercise per 4 weeks of age. This is because as such a big breed, bones take two years to develop thus 'over-exercising' can be harmful in later life (hip dysplasia aka 'their hips go). B. is done in after 15 minutes despite his size.

Obvs Chop is a different breed but will be big, just the same. Ask the vet at next jabs x
Posted By: Sarah_ZR Re: Vet advice plese? - 22nd Jun 2014 5:25pm

His dads hip score is 3.3 and his mums is 1.1, vet said thats excellent and he should have no problems.
the whole generation have never been inbred (which is legal but proper breeders choose not to interbreed) so his health should be very good.

He had his last innoculation last night and he is now chipped so he is good to go for walks in 10 days.

How did yours get on at the vet?

Thanks for your kind comment.

Posted By: turnip Re: Vet advice plese? - 27th Dec 2014 1:15pm
Just want to reiterate my original comment mentioning vets 4 pets being very good. Our bulldog cross staff had been throwing up and off his food. Matt diagnosed him with having a blockage in his stomach and spent the afternoon of Christmas eve operating on him. It turned out he had eaten a sock and it had gotten stuck in his intestine. Matt removed it then, as they were shut on Christmas day, transferred the dog to chester gates.

The incision has been stitched incredibly, so much so that a large proportion of it has healed up already. They've been brilliant with him and always put out minds at ease. Don't think we could take him to any other vet.

Posted By: _Ste_ Re: Vet advice plese? - 1st Jan 2015 9:19am
Glad your pooch made a good recovery turnip, yes vets for pets are pretty awesome, I'd recommend them to anyone.
Posted By: _Ste_ Re: Vet advice plese? - 31st Jan 2015 2:40am
Took Chop for a checkup last week, he still has loads of growing to do and he weighs 6 stone.

Caught him asleep on the couch the other morning when I got up for work laugh
