At Lanes Vets, we are proudly independent.
This allows us to put the health and wellbeing of your animals first, making clinical decisions tailored entirely to your needs.
Because our directors work right here in the practice, we aren’t answerable to distant shareholders—only to you and your pets.
Our size allows us to invest in the latest equipment and expertise, yet we work in small, friendly teams so you’ll always see a familiar face. It’s our way of providing the high-quality care you expect with the personal, consistent service of a local vet you and your pets deserve.

Our History
In 1992 Per Ostergaard, Graham Shepherd, Mandy Mayo and Mike Bevan bought D.W. Davies practice and changed the name to Dimples Lane and built up both the large animal and small animal side. Dimples Lane set up a small animal practice on Caton Road, Lancaster in 2001.
Pearson and Thompson were the 2 partners of a small animal surgery in Poulton-Le-Fylde. Danny Callery joined them in 1988 and later became a partner making this practice known as ‘Pearson, Thompson & Callery’. Their small animal practice in Poulton grew rapidly and moved to a larger premises in 2000. In 2007, the practice merged with Dimples Lane after they expanded the building on Green Lane West. The surgery on Caton Road, Lancaster was also part of the merger. A new Small animal surgery was built in Cottam and opened in 2020 just before lockdown. The practice has grown from a small practice to one with 100 staff during that time, still proudly independent.
