Supreme Petfoods sponsors new Rabbit CPD Company
Supreme Petfoods is sponsoring a new veterinary education company that will focus on rabbits only. LagoLearn will train vets, veterinary nurses and students on the specifics of rabbit medicine and surgery, provided through lectures and workshops. The aim is to raise the standards of rabbit care equivalent to those received by dogs and cats both in the UK and internationally.
Claire Hamblion, Supreme Marketing Manager says it’s important that standards and capabilities in rabbit care continue to improve, “Rabbits are the third most popular pet in the UK and they have many specific needs when it comes to veterinary care. We want to support all veterinary practices in developing their expertise in this area so that these much loved pets can benefit from the same advances in veterinary medicine that other species enjoy.”
LagoLearn founders, Mrs Jo Hinde RVN and Dr Ivan Crotaz BVetMed, both lecture internationally on the veterinary care of rabbits and are looking forward to working with the profession through this dedicated venture. Jo said, “It’s great to have the support of Supreme Petfoods from the very start. We know the company has a passion for improving the lives of rabbits and a long heritage of backing high quality continuing professional development (CPD). Together, we can make sure all practices are equipped to care for rabbits confidently and competently.”
LagoLearn’s first training day will be held on 13thOctober in Berkshire and will focus on anaesthesia, dentistry and nursing, with separate streams for vets and vet nurses. Find out more at www.lagolearn.com
Vets and nurses can find out more about Supreme Petfoods at the British Veterinary Nursing Association (BVNA) Congress in October and London Vet Show (stand D34) in November.

Supreme Petfoods was the first company to make species specific small animal diets that reflected their unique nutritional requirements. The Supreme range includes Science Selective, which is widely recommended by veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses. As well as offering the biggest range of species specific foods, Supreme also manufactures all its herbivore diets in dedicated vegetarian facilities. Only ingredients of the highest quality are sourced for use in the Supreme range of foods and the recipes are developed to be palatable without the use of added sugar. Supreme recipes are all manufactured to a fixed formula to minimise the risk of gastric upset and while the company produces diets containing the highest fibre levels of any rabbit food, hay is always recommended as an additional food source to promote dental wear, provide environmental enrichment, foraging and nesting opportunities.
