It was all hands on deck at our Warwick hospital this morning as vets Simon, Anita and Helen managed a morning full of unexpected emergency surgical cases on top of their list of elective operations.
We had a dog with a suspected torsion, a feline thyroidectomy, a cat whose injured tail had to be amputated and a labrador in labour who needed a caesarian.
One look at Simon's face and you can see he's enjoyed his morning though. There's nothing like a litter of new born puppies to give everyone here a big smile.
