Ready, Steady, Slowwwwww 🐌🐌 Thank you to Pet Ready, Steady, Slowwwwww 🐌🐌 Thank you to Peter Wright, for being the vet in charge of our snail race at Thirsk racecourse. As you can see it was enjoyed by everyone. The snails had a few hours out (lots of food) before being returned back into the wild where luckily for us, it had rained the night before and we found them, so panic over… I’m sure they all had lots to talk about 😉So thank you to the stars of the slowwwww All Creatures Great and Small 🐌 #yorkshirevetc5 #snailrace #thirskraces #thirsk #backinthewild #acgas #herriotcountry
