Malahide Veterinary Clinic

Malahide Veterinary Clinic is a small-animal practice that, based on recent reviews, handles both routine preventative care and same-day urgent problems. Owners mention being able to get an unregistered dog seen late in the evening for an emergency, and leaving with medication and clear home-care advice. Other concrete examples include a “health profile” appointment for an elderly dog with diet and joint-care guidance, and boarding for cats where owners reported their cat returned “relaxed and well cared for.” Several reviews also highlight staff taking extra time with nervous rescue dogs to build trust rather than rushing handling.
