Horizon Vets is a cats-and-dogs practice with custom-designed facilities, including separate cat and dog wards, two surgical theatres, and a standalone dentistry suite. The website highlights orthopaedics and states they provide emergency out-of-hours care. In the latest reviews, owners repeatedly describe two things: (1) a purpose-built, non-clinical “cosy” room used for euthanasia/goodbyes (the site also refers to an “eclipse room for euthanasia”), and (2) a calm, low-stress setup from arrival—one review mentions reception “little booths” that help keep dogs calm and secluded.
