			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Congratulations goes to one of our clients Lee Gibson and his dog Taddymoor Scott who came second in the Dog Agility Grand Finals held at Olympia on Saturday 17th December.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.shrewsburyvets.com/content/uploads/2011/12/Lee-Gibson-at-Olympia-2011.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-762" title="Lee Gibson at Olympia 2011" src="http://www.shrewsburyvets.com/content/uploads/2011/12/Lee-Gibson-at-Olympia-2011-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-756"></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Lee Gibson is regarded as one of the countrys top agility handlers and trainers. With over twelve years experience of competing and training at the highest level of agility, it is no surprise that handlers travel from all over the country to train with Lee.</p>
<p>All Lees dogs are cared for here at Copthorne Vets where we also stock the Purina Pro Plan diets that his dogs are fed on to help keep them fit and healthy.</p>
<p>Congratulations again to Lee and of course Scott!</p>
<p>Watch the You Tube video below to see the pair in action.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On Sunday September 25th we held our annual charity dog show at Longden Village Hall. After a rather cloudy and windy start we were pleased to see the sunshine arrive just in time for the first entries. With over 50 dogs entered into a variety of both pedigree and novelty classes it was a very busy afternoon and we must thank our judge Mr D. Whitlock for his excellent work.</p>
<p>We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone that attended the show, donated prizes for the raffle and tombola or sponsored a class, all of which helped us to <strong>raise over £1400</strong> to be divided between our chosen charities Severn Hospice and Greyhound Rescue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Student Veterinary Nurse Hollie is getting ever closer to becoming a qualified Veterinary Nurse after successfully passing her written exams. <a href="http://www.shrewsburyvets.com/content/uploads/2011/04/hollie-clee.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-235" title="Hollie Clee" src="http://www.shrewsburyvets.com/content/uploads/2011/04/hollie-clee-100x100.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a><span id="more-552"></span></p>
<p>Our Student Veterinary Nurses work extremely hard, working full time, attending college one day a week and completing their Nursing Progress Log which evidences all the knowledge and skills neccessary to qualify as a Veterinary Nurse. The students are supported at the practice by their Clinical Coaches who teach, support and mentor them to ensure they achieve the high standards that Copthorne Vets is proud of.</p>
<p>If you would like to know more about becoming a Veterinary Nurse or a Veterinary Surgeon please contact the surgery and have a chat with one of the team.</p>
<p>Hollie hopes to complete her final practical exams in December and begin next year as a valued member of our qualified Veterinary Nursing team. <em><strong>Good Luck Hollie!</strong></em></p>
