When you visit me for the first time you will need to bring a signed vet consent form.
This is in accordance with the 1966 Veterinary Surgeons Act and is designed to keep your pet safe. Signing this form ensures that only qualified people treat on your pet. I adhere to Best Practice and will not work on a dog that has not been cleared by a vet as medically fit to undergo a therapeutic massage.
Please download the form below and ask your vet to sign it.
