The best horse vet around

Straight talking, honest and reliable. Nothing is too much trouble. The horse’s welfare is top priority but what I really appreciate is the level of personal service and the fact Shelley genuinely cares for my ponies as well as how I’m coping with any issues that arise. I always have peace of mind knowing my girls are in the best hands. Thank you to Shelley and the team for fixing my girl so we can go and have lots of fun together.

– Joanna Cottrell

Fantastic, informative, no -nonsense approach. Just the way I like it

 

– Claire Clay

By far the best vets I have ever dealt with

From Shelley’s no nonsense approach to the check in texts and always being available on the end of the phone. Both of my mares are currently under treatment with Shelley for different reasons but I wouldn’t want anyone else to treat them. Outstanding vets 1000% recommend, in my opinion no other vets come close.

– Emma Denson

Absolutely outstanding!

Shelley is so knowledgeable and brims with passion for the love of horses, animals and humans alike. Shelley has built a team of like minded people to deliver a 24/7 top class friendly service. Little Rock Equine – THANK YOU!!! Your speedy diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation guidance/support has meant we’re back onboard!

– Kathy & Bertie, Jane & Ringo

Had to have a second opinion on my horse as he wasn't getting better so rang Shelley.

She came straight out that day and sorted my boy, no messing and within a week he’s 100% back to normal. Absolutely made up with the service and treatment he got. I would highly recommend and I will not be using another vet again 10/10 Shelley, thank you so much again for saving my boy and getting him well in no time.

– Natty Leach

Very precise and to the point, easy to deal with and prompt response when asking for advice.

– Stacey Morris

Absolutely AMAZING equine vets with huge and massive knowledge, who saved my girl.

I highly recommend Shelley Cook and Lucy.  Anyone who has equine friends I can definitely 110% recommend them.

– Amy Langridge

I can’t recommend Shelley enough, she is genuinely a compassionate and caring vet and shows a real interest in her patients.

This afternoon my filly needed investigation of an injury to her jaw and subsequently needed to be admitted to Leahurst. Shelley sorted it all out very efficiently and even helped me to hitch up my trailer, load her up and saw us on our way. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us so far Shelley!
