Who are we?

Welcome to Town and Country Veterinary Group in Blackburn, a first opinion small animal practice serving Blackburn and the surrounding areas. Our professional and experienced team are committed to providing quality care and treatment to your pet, who we consider to be an important member of your family! We offer a wide range of services including our money-saving Pet Health Club, which provides essential routine care for your pet.

At Town and Country we like to focus on preventative treatment as well as seeing your pets at times of need. The nurses hold free clinics on all aspects of pet ownership and preventative health care, with weight clinics, adolescent checks, dental checks, older pet checks to name but a few. We feel these clinics are an excellent idea for a number of reasons. It gives us the opportunity to get to know your pet individually and know their personality. It also benefits your pet, realising that going to the vets can actually be a pleasant experience! Just popping in for a weight check and chat with the nurse can make your pet enjoy coming to the surgery which can make an unavoidable visit much less stressful for you and your pet.
