puppy-and-kitten Puppy & Kitten

Included with every puppy and kitten package is a complimentary nurse clinic to discuss topics such as behaviour, training, nutrition, parasite control and neutering before being seen by the vet for your pet’s primary vaccination. If your new addition has already had their full course of vaccinations you can book in for a nurse puppy / kitten clinic for a nose to tail check so we can not only get introduced but also weight them and work out which flea and worm protocol is best for them at such an important stage of their growth. Our Health Plan has many benefits for puppies and kittens so why not have a look and see how you can save money.

ovg-weight Weight Management

Orchard Vets are proud to be recognised as an Approved Weight Management Centre providing expert advice on nutrition and weight management for your pet.

If your pet is overweight or underweight you can be referred to one of our specially trained nurses to discuss the best feeding regime, and exercise requirements. They will come up with a tailored plan to help your pet shed the pounds or vice versa.

During these clinics we discuss your pet’s current diet, demonstrate how to body condition score, calculate target weights and come up with a plan on how to reach those targets in a controlled way. This will keep your pet at the correct weight, avoiding obesity which can lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, arthritis and diabetes.
