Following a nationwide search to find the UK’s top veterinary professionals for the prestigious Petplan Veterinary Awards in March, Petplan is now calling for nominations from colleagues and horse owners across the country for this year’s prestigious ‘Petplan Equine Vet of the Year Award’.

Like the ‘Veterinary Awards’, the Petplan Equine Vet of the Year Award, was created to help recognise the dedicated and skilled work carried out every day by equine vets, creating the perfect opportunity for colleagues and horse owners to publicly praise their nominated vet.

Now in its fourth year, the Petplan Equine Vet of the Year Award reflects both Petplan Equine's support for the veterinary profession and the huge contribution made by local vets to the equine community.

The current title holder of the prestigious ‘Petplan Equine Vet of the Year’, is Worcester vet, David Denny, who has run his own general veterinary practice for over 40 years and prides himself on having a small personal practice. David’s years of experience in carrying out diagnoses and his commitment to always putting the welfare of the horse first especially impressed the judges. Such is David’s commitment to his job that he even treated a horse on the day of his daughter’s wedding, making him a deserving winner of last year’s award.

After receiving his award last year David Denny commented: “I have always enjoyed my job and it is lovely to be appreciated by clients. For me, being a vet is a way of life rather than just a business – it is hard work but very enjoyable.”

Nominate an equine vet today by visiting www.petplanequine.co.uk/vetaward – nominations close on 5th August 2011. The winner will be decided by an independent specialist panel and will be announced at the prestigious Animal Health Trust UK Equestrian Awards in London, on Thursday 3rd November, 2011.
