We have sadly just had the last of our Horses put to rest,and they have all been under the care of Fernwy for over 30 years. Rachel was the vet that came to us, and she was such a lovely caring and professional person. It was clear that she had read the records of the Horse concerned ,and having examined him concluded that it was indeed the time for him to be put to rest. Rachel explained every step of the procedure to my daughters who were obviously upset,but the manner in which it was done make things slightly easier. Thanks must go to Rachael for her empathetic manner in dealing not just with our loved pet,but with us all as a family. Thank you Rachael ,and alsoJim Tipp who has cared for all our horses you are a legend!

These vets worked a miricle with our pony Woody. He was at deaths door and this wonderful team of vets, somehow, saved him. Their care, dedication and kindness towards Woody and the support they offered us at this crucial time was simply amazing. I will be forever in your debt. All I can say is thank you for saving our very much loved pony Woody. ♥️

This vets is an absolute 10/10 amazing service and so friendly towards the customers. I would definitely recommend Fyrnwy to anyone keeping horses as the help me and my daughter received from them was just outstanding. We are beginners in the horse world and they talked us through everything needed to help us get our horse back to perfect health. Camilla was the actual vet that assessed our horse but as a full team they were brilliant. Thank you all!
