Monty

This is our Sprollie, Monty so a mad combination in itself and when we rescued him just over 11 years, he was completely uncontrollable. As he is ball mad we channelled his boundless energy into flyball which he loved and in 2011 we were VERY proud of him when he became a champion. He is now about 13½ but sadly 2½ years ago he broke one of his front legs which led to it being amputated nevertheless this has not stopped him running round playing ball, swimming and still being mad as a hatter hence his nickname “The Mad Moo”.

Last Wednesday evening Monty Moo had a Reiki session with Abbie, we went in with an open mind as we didn’t know much about it. The setting was perfect with its subdued lighting, relaxing music and a squidgy bed or settee for Mont to choose from. He was fidgety and barky to start with and we were thinking this is not going to work but Abbie patiently persevered with her gentle touching.  Moo is the kind of dog that is always on the go and doesn’t have time to relax so we were shocked really when about ten minutes in, he settled and then not long after his eyes and head became heavy and he’d pretty much dozed off while Abbie carried on with the reiki around the whole of his body.

Half way through he did get up for a drink but then shortly afterwards again he was back to being completely chilled and sleepy – I still can’t believe it now as Moo only sleeps because he has to in order to recharge for his next day capers and what mischief he can get into.

When we left, Mont always barks with excitement when he gets in the van and then again when we arrive home but he was silent all the way, this is unheard of and we had to make sure he was ok. As we do with all of our gang, we give them a cuddle before going to bed, Moo didn’t even stir as he was still that chilled.

He is back to his mad self however we are surprised by the affect it had on him. We are seriously considering of having a reiki session before we have to make that awful decision we all dread of letting one of our beloved four legged friends go to Rainbow Bridge as if it can work on Mont, it would be such a peaceful and relaxing way of letting them slip away.

We would recommend to give reiki a go and enjoy the experience for both you and your four legged friend!

Sally, BiBi and their humans – Lizzie & Chris

Words cannot adequately express our thanks, gratitude and admiration to Sarah and all the team at Mochdre Vets for the professionalism, care, compassion and skill in responding to our very special dog Sally when she was suspected and found to have a serious medical condition. Understanding that it was very serious and the odds were very high we could lose her, Sarah and all the team responded in the way you can only hope, not just the major operation, but the following critical 24 hour care. Sarah and the team also took great trouble providing care to the distressed humans.

We now have Sally back, and in full normal cantankerous form running the home and organising the humans. Happiness has returned! Thank you all so much. We are so lucky to have you all close by.

Theo and Dawn

Theo spent 10 days at the vets and Auntie Sarah even took him home, we were updated daily with pictures, phone calls and text messages so we felt re-assured and relaxed the whole time …

… Sarah’s heart lies with making the animal better.

Alison and Misty Moo

For the past months Misty has gone twice a week for water treadmill and been on a strict exercise routine.  What can I say but WOW! After the first month I had a happy puppy enjoying playing bitey face with her annoying bro. Her sitting stance was a lot better and with the extra exercises she was putting more weight on her leg. She has continued twice weekly with the water treadmill and loves it even wanting to go back in rather than have a shower at the end. She greets Abbie and Gwenan with licks and drags us up to it. She returned to agility on micro. As she came in all the group who had not seen her commented on how her whole body shape had become stronger and leaner.  Moo was home she was so happy to be back doing what she loves.

Susanne Roberts, Molly, Amy and Lucy

Hiya, thanks ever so much for Amy and Lucy’s taster session today. They loved it. Gwenan was extremely good with them, especially Amy. She showed no fear towards Amy, so her session was very successful.

I was really impressed with her knowledge regarding her physio treatment towards Molly. Mollydog had a great relaxing massage, and Gwenan found some muscle knots in her back legs, which I hadn’t realised were there, so she’s shown me how to massage her to help them reduce.  I would certainly score Gwenan with 10/10. Most definitely recommend her services too.

Melanie and Zayni

It’s an amazing place – the facilities and finish are akin to a luxury spa and the care, assessment and treatment plan so professional but really friendly too which is so important. Both girls are wonderful. Haven’t experienced a water treadmill before. What a bonus for the area along with that incredible pool. Lovely to see a longtime dream become a reality.

Wishing Sarah and the team all the very, very best.

Claire Hitchins owner of agility dog Flic

I have looked at your website and I am so excited! We will 100% be using you as our vet. I am so so passionate about the use of alternative therapies alongside veterinary treatment and it is just totally brilliant to have such a progressive practice in North Wales.

I have spent the last 7 years driving about 2-3 hours from my house to access things like underwater treadmill, physiotherapy, McTimoney and massage and trying to explain to vets that my dogs are athletes and need to access these things to keep them in peak condition and prevent injury even if they are currently fit and healthy!
