At MerlinVet UK, we offer a customised pharmaceutical service, importing pharmaceuticals and farm fertility equipment to UK vets. We are the UK's biggest supplier of Special Import Products and have a wide range of medicines, supplements, and equipment covering companion animal, farm animal, and equine. We are additionally the proud stockist of Numnuts®, a 2-in-1 device that administers an Elastrator® ring along with a pre-calibrated dose of local anaesthetic making tail docking and castration of lambs easy, fast and safe.

The Royal Highland Show provides a perfect platform to showcase MerlinVet and Numnuts to an engaged audience of farmers and the wider public alike. Numnuts' ethical approach to lambing methods is well-aligned with the RHS's commitment to animal welfare; we're able to spread awareness of our lamb castration and tail docking device with anaesthetic delivery, which promotes conformity with Scottish legislation and overall wellbeing of lambs.

MerlinVet is once again sponsoring the Hampshire Down class, to be judged at 09.00 on Friday 19th June by Mr Allen McFadden, County Down, Northern Ireland. You can find full information on the livestock schedule here.
