  • bracken was only a few months old when his hip problem was diagnoised.He had stopped walking at times could not stand without help.Since having hydro at aquavet he walks runs on the beach playing ball swims in the sea. He does not need any pain relief his life is so much better. He is now a happy one year old Boarder Collie –Casterton

  • I would just love to say that we was a bit worried when we got told our 8 week old puppy had got hip dysplasia. We was heart broken. We are trying our best to work round our moo moo. We was told at the vet that there was somewhere that our moo moo could build up her muscles and that place was AQUAVET this place is amazing I would definitely recommend the staff there, they are absolutely brill and so polite. I have bipolar and sometimes I dont like change and I can panic, but when I walked through that door it was the best thing I did.

    Our moo moo knows her workers now and she has had her second visit. She has been made to feel so comfortable at Aquavet . And we really love going our moo moo is my mental health dog and we are getting each other through the difficult challenges ahead. I just wanna say a big thankyou to the staff at Aquavet. Your doing a brilliant job and molly moo and me will see u soon god bless. –Sally Wright
