Balloo Vets Ltd

Balloo Vets Ltd (established in 2004) provides both small-animal and equine care, with on-site surgical facilities, in-house lab testing (haematology and biochemistry analysers), and hospitalisation. For horse owners, the clinic also lists a CCTV-monitored foaling unit. Reviewers most often describe long-term use for dogs and highlight practical support—such as help getting a puppy “through all her jabs” and staff being “kind & supportive” with a pug.
