Cannot recommend Ark Veterinary more highly. They look after both our dogs with professionalism and compassion. Our dear Luna was diagnosed with stomach cancer and Hazel, Lindsey and all other staff were just wonderful. Great expertise, knowledge and kindness was shown at all times. Luna had to be put to sleep at home. Hazel and Lindsey were so loving and compassionate.

Our dog (and us) received the very best care and attention from Vet Gemma and team at Ark before, during and after her op. Our dog is recovering remarkably well thanks to their professional care and empathy.

Staff were brilliant. Sadly our puppy was attacked and had to go in for stitches. We don't live in the area and we're just visiting family. They took us nearly straight away and as my parents have a dog registered with the practice we were allowed to use there account which definitely helped our heads at a horrible time.

We have used this vets for our dog since he was a puppy and they have been exceptional. From removing a fish hook from his throat (this was so scary but they done absolutely everything they could for him!) to his yearly jags and check ups, they are always such a friendly and helpful team who do everything they can for your pet. My dog genuinely likes coming here! Thank you so much

We were on holiday in moffat when our beloved dog Pepsi had a seizure. She was 18 but still good but we really had to do what was best for her. Everyone was so, so kind I can’t praise all the staff enough . We collected Pepsis ashes and once again we were treated with such kindness.
