Oak Barn Vets is leading the way with lap spay procedures, which see dogs recover much more quickly, along with representing a much lower risk of complications. 

Inquisitive dogs and curious cats might enjoy investigating around the house, but the last thing you want them to do is harm themselves on household items. 

Did you know that Oak Barn Vets offers a laparoscopic option for spaying female dogs as well as the standard spaying option?

Brushing is by far the best method of keeping your pet's teeth clean and is more successful if taken in stages. Ideally, it would help if you brushed your dog's teeth at least once daily or three times per week at a minimum to help remove plaque and prevent tartar build-up.

When we think about weight management in pets it can be easy to focus on their exercise routine and how active they might, or might not, be. However, getting them out for their daily walk is only part of it, and in fact what they eat from one day to the next plays an equally important role.

Keeping our pets safe is important to all of us as pet owners. They trust us with their care and protection and microchipping can help with keeping them safe. A microchip identifies your pet as belonging to you.

Here at Oak Barn Vets, we are committed to providing the best quality healthcare for your pet. 

As we head into the festive season, we want to reassure you that we will still be here for you and your pet, however, with some slightly different opening hours than normal.

Just like us, our pets feel the cold; whilst we can indulge in hot drinks and wrap up in layers and warm up by the fire, you should also consider how to keep your pets happy and warm as the temperatures start to fall.

Over the last year in Guildford, we have seen our costs increase significantly and at Oak Barn Vets we have absorbed the majority of these additional costs to try and support our customers during difficult times.
