PAT (Pets as Therapy)  

Every year Eastcott Vets support a pet charity. Last year we supported Canine Partners a charity that provides assistance dogs for the disabled,. This year we are supporting PAT (Pets as Therapy). We know all about PAT dogs and our vet Richard Gowshall is a PAT dog assessor but we were not aware that PAT use PAT cats too!

We are delighted to be sponsoring and judging the annual Old Town Festival Dog Show on 28th June 2014

We are delighted to be involved in this popular annual event at the Old Town Festival in Swindon again this year. This is an entirely fun event which is open to dogs of all shapes and sizes.

Watch how this lucky child is saved by the fearless family cat.

A child is attacked by a dog but watch how the family cat leaps to his rescue. How fortunate that the cat was there as this was a particularly nasty attack that could have resulted in serious injury or worse.

In 2010 with your help we raised £10,000 to sponsor a Guide Dog puppy. Many of you have been following Edison’s progress.

2014 Pet Plan Awards Finals 

Well done to our Practice Manager Niki for getting to last night's Pet Plan Awards finals. Sadly Niki was pipped to the post by Sharon Lane-Kieltyka from Somerset. Niki will always be our winner though. Never one to court the limelight we think that Niki was secretly relieved not to have any more photos and videos taken!

Eastcott Reaches the Pet Plan Finals for another year

Eastcott Vets have twice won the Pet Plan Awards UK Vets Practice of the Year. This year Eastcott received 2 nominations for the Practice of the Year category plus Vet Duncan Barnes and Practice Manager Niki Burton also received individual nominations. We are delighted to announce that Niki has been selected as a finalist for the Practice Manager of the Year Category. Niki is a very dedicated member of the Eastcott team and works tirelessly both behind the scenes and front of house. Her nomination and place in the final is well deserved. Niki however would rather be at her desk than in front of the cameras and is not too thrilled at being thrust into the limelight! Being selected as a finalist is a huge achievement and one to be proud of. We wish her all the best of luck in the final in a few weeks. Well done to Duncan too!
