Birmingham Dogs Home has issued an urgent winter appeal as it faces more challenges over the Christmas period.

It costs the charity £6,000 per day to continue its work.

Fi Harrison, head of fundraising and communications, said: “It’s heart-breaking for our team to see the conditions some dogs arrive in. We really are their last chance and hope of survival.”

FIVP to represent independent practices at London Vet Show

The Federation of Independent Veterinary Practices (FIVP) will be at stand (S05) at this year's London Vet Show.

The not-for-profit organisation will be explaining how its expertise and resources can help independent practices to thrive in a competitive industry. It will also share how it has been representing independent practices in the ongoing CMA investigation.

On Thursday, FIVP member Steve Carter will be available to discuss how veterinary surgeons and nurses can pursue practice ownership.

FIVP will also be offering independent practices three months of free membership if they sign up at the stand.

Rita Dingwall, FIVP business development manager, said: "It's a wonderful opportunity to discuss our representation in the CMA enquiry and connect with like-minded individuals who share our passion for independent practice."
