No vet listed in Annan yet.

A vet provides medical care for your pets - vaccinations, health checks, treatment for illness and injury and routine procedures like neutering and microchipping.

Whether you visit a local surgery or have a vet come to your home, finding someone your animals are comfortable with makes every visit easier.

Check they are registered with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) and ask about out-of-hours emergency cover before you need it.

Annan is a royal burgh on the River Annan near the Solway Firth, one of the principal towns of eastern Dumfriesshire.

The town has a long high street with a mix of Georgian and Victorian buildings, a town hall and a harbour that was once busy with coastal trade and fishing.

Annan is the birthplace of Thomas Carlyle's wife, Jane Welsh Carlyle and the explorer Edward Irving - the town has a quiet pride in its history without making too much fuss about it.

The town has a rail station on the Glasgow South Western line and the A75 passes just to the south, connecting it to Dumfries, Gretna and the M74.

Dumfries and Galloway is the most south-westerly council area in Scotland, stretching from the English border at Gretna to the Mull of Galloway - the southernmost point in Scotland - and from the Solway Firth coast inland to the hills of the Southern Uplands.

Dumfries is the largest town and administrative centre, a handsome red sandstone burgh on the River Nith where Robert Burns spent the last years of his life and is buried in St Michael's Kirkyard.

The region divides naturally into three historic areas: Dumfriesshire to the east, Kirkcudbrightshire (the Stewartry) in the centre and Wigtownshire to the west - each with its own character, landscape and loyalties.

The Galloway coast and countryside have a mild climate influenced by the Gulf Stream, fertile farmland, dark-sky reserves and a string of small harbour towns that attract artists, writers and visitors drawn to the quiet and the landscape.

Despite its size, the region is one of the most sparsely populated in Scotland - a place where community is strong, the pace is slower and the landscape ranges from river valleys and rolling farmland to wild moorland and rocky coastline.
