Willows is coming to Crufts 2011!

2 March 2011

Willows will, for the first time, have a stand at Crufts this year.  Our presence throughout each of the four days of the event will give dog owners and breeders (and any passing vets or veterinary nurses!) an opportunity to meet with  a number of members of our veterinary, nursing and management teams. 

So, if you are visiting Crufts this year do come and visit us on Stand 198A in Hall 1 - you can pick our brains, learn more about our services, pick up some free gifts and take the opportunity to enter our Crufts Competition with the chance of winning a £500 cash prize!  We look forward to seeing you there!

Adder Warning!

30 April 2010

The pleasant spring weather we enjoyed recently was a delight to all dog owners.
