I couldn't recommend Aidan, James and the wonderful staff at Ark Vets more. They have shown the best of care to our 2 dogs over the years. When one of our beloved dogs passed away recently, the staff, especially Aidan and Áine, were so kind, understanding and sympathetic. This means so much. They really do care so much about animals here, and we are so happy to have them as our vets. Well done ! Read Less

The knowledge that your pet is in the hands of real profeshunals who care about what you think about them is so impotant.

Buyer always beware - remember, your dog's life is on;ly equal to the perceived breed value. Making a few grand on needless surgery is equal to a few mortgage payments.

If it sounds to good to be true. It usually is. I just put my best friend into the ground six weeks after her hip operation. It has been a living hell for everyone involved. I implore anyone considering hip surgery for an elderly dog with tall legs to do a lot of homework beforehand and get second and third opinions.
• Remember that physiotherapy for a tall elderly dog is not only as much a full time a commitment as caring for a new-born, but back breaking is every sense as the dog weighs three-four times that of a toddler. Don't have blind trust! Ask your vet about the unsuccessful stories, ask if you can talk to those people? Get other opinions from vets unknown to yours. Read Less

I've a 7 year old Yorkie, since as young as 6 months she was a sick dog and has been down through the years but had deteriorated very badly in recent months, I've been to many places and no joy of ever rightly finding what was really wrong with her until 3 months ago I was told about Ark Vets and on my first visit there straight away they picked up on a liver abnormality immediately on the first round of blood tests. And what amazed me most was the genuine care from all vets and staff there. They took time to call me after hours with results and even to enquire how she was doing. Finally we have a diagnosis and medication to help her and already she has improved and has a much better quality of life I cannot speak highly enough of Liz, Aidan and all the team in Ark Vets and am very grateful to them for all they've done.Read Less

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Having struggled for weeks with my lil cavachon pup (and her ongoing hip issues) to decide on best next steps, I was treated with the upmost care, compassion and the height of professionalism from everyone from nurses to surgeons here. Aidan, Liz, Sheila, and James. Wow! You guys really are fabulous to be around and brilliant to come to when in turmoil. Caomh has been a new pup since she met you guys; if anyone is wondering who to go to, my experience was just second to none. Highly highly highly recommend! Read Less

As a 46 year old, who has had dogs since I can remember, I have been to a few veterinary practices in that time. I can say without doubt that Ark Vets is the most professional and caring practice by a country mile that I have come across both in Ireland and the UK. I live in North Mayo and it is a 5 hour round trip to attend appointments but it is worth every minute in the car to get the best treatment for my dog. Read Less
