Testimonials
Mrs. H
East Dereham“Absolutely the best. When my mum and dads dog had to be put to sleep at nearly 16 years old it was the most dignified way imaginable. We were all given time with Polly before and after she slipped away.”
Mrs D
Little Dunham“I was incredibly impressed by your compassion and care when I called as a new client worried about my 3 year old boxer. Your care and consideration for both myself and Lola was greatly appreciated. I can highly recommend your practice.”

An independent practice that provides the best care for your small animals🐶😺🐰🐹
❤️We had these two gorgeous puppies in last week, to repair their umbilical hernias. ![]()
![]()
🐾Theoni gave them all the love before their procedure, which they appreciated so much. Both of them recovered beautifully from their surgery. ![]()
![]()
💭An umbilical hernia is a small lump you may notice on your dogs tummy, around the belly button area. It happens when the muscles in that area don’t fully close after birth, leaving a small gap.![]()
![]()
💊This gap can allow a bit of fat, or occasionally part of the intestine, to push through, causing a soft swelling. In many cases, it isn’t painful and may even go away on its own as your puppy grows.![]()
![]()
👨🏼⚕️However, some hernias don’t close naturally and may need a simple surgical repair, often done at the same time as neutering, if the timings align. Rarely, the hernia can become firm, painful, or swollen; this would need urgent veterinary attention.![]()
![]()
🩺Overall, this is a common condition in puppies, and the prognosis is usually excellent.
📣Just a reminder we are closed today!![]()

📞If you have an emergency please call our number: 01760-722054![]()

🏥You will be directed to either: The Grove in Fakenham or Vets Now in King’s Lynn
Easter is an exciting time for all, but please remember to keep all toxins out of the way of out little creatures!🐰🐣🍫
