As a busy mobile vet I often get phone calls from distressed clients when their dog is having a fit. A bit of advance knowledge can be really useful – so here’s my guide to seizures or ‘fits’ in dogs. A fit or generalised seizure can be a very frightening experience for your dog.
One of the advantages of being a mobile vet and travelling to see my patients is that it gives me time to reflect between consultations. I often drive along thinking about how skilled cats and dogs are at hiding health problems from owners.
Next to dentals and annual health checks the most common procedure vets perform is desexing ie. spey or castration of our dogs and cats, rabbits and even rats and other little critters sometimes. As a mobile vet I am commonly asked to perform the desexing in the home.
It would be wonderful to be surrounded by loads of pets – at least I think so! However most of us start with one and then go from there. One of the most common questions I get is “should we get another pet?”.
There has been a lot of media attention in the last few years around dog attacks on young children and no doubt it touches a deep cord in all of us.
You wouldn’t know it’s summer with all the strange weather but the usual summer itching has begun as you would expect. This mobile vet has seen many itchy dogs and cats.
Rabbits are a popular companion pet, not only in houses with backyards, but also other places without access to outdoors. As a mobile vet I have been into several apartments with rabbits housed in enclosures running free around the home. With domestication and especially in these kinds of environments it is essential.
Little “BB” was finally reunited with her owner, Scott, who had thought that his cat had died a year earlier when she had gone missing. Scott also has a son who missed his friend terribly and was over the moon to find out that his beloved cat was still alive.
I had the pleasure recently of doing a vet house call to an amazing young female dog who had birthed her first litter of little pups. My first call to this dog, Melody, several months before was kind of a distress call as she had become incredibly anxious.

First visit from Ari and Ellie and it went beyond all expectations. They were so genuinely interested in my two cats. Of course I couldn’t stop talking about them but they clearly were not bored. Did excellent health checks and vaccinations – was an absolute pleasure and I would totally recommend them to anybody. So fabulous having no stress of lugging…
Elle’s exceptionally professional, warm, and helpful phone manner, together with Dr Ari’s prompt arrival, gentle approach with Hudson, and clear, thorough medical explanations and recommendations, immediately put my mind at ease. The high level of care and professionalism demonstrated confirmed that contacting VETaround was the right decision.
Ari is the best vet ever. His home visits are incredible. Such a great service to not have to put your beloved pets in the stressful situation of a car. Or around sick pets in a waiting area. My cats LOVE HIM. Ollie my male cat NEVER comes out of hiding when visitors come over. With Ari, he not only came out, let him weigh him, have his check up done…
I was very pleased with the ladies from VETaround Mobile vet. Professional, polite and very knowledgeable. Certainly eased my mind about my cat 🐈 would recommend them to anyone needing good veterinary care for their pet. We all know just how important our four legged friends are!
