During my holiday in Yorkshire my dog needed a vet. ‘We’ highly recommend Yoredale Vets, Leyburn. Everyone was brilliant. The time, patience and information from vet Laura was outstanding. Examination of my dog was very thorough. Laura had read all the history from our vet in Hampshire before we arrived. I am very impressed. Thank you for all your reassurance and treating Woodie. First class vet.

Afternoon all, I came across a crow earlier who was unable to fly and was standing in the middle of a field, looking almost lifeless—though still making plenty of noise. This morning, the vets kindly agreed to take a look at him and asked me to bring him in. They checked to make sure he hadn’t been injured and confirmed his feathers are intact, but he’s currently unable to fly. The vets were incredibly kind—not only did they check him over free of charge, but they also provided some supplies to help. I’m truly grateful for their generosity. The crow is with me now, and I’m hoping he makes a full recovery. Big thanks again to the wonderful vets! Lalit
