𝗛𝗮𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆?

We need to get an urgent message to them about pet safety this Easter!

🍫 NO chocolate for dogs, please!
It might be delicious to us, but it’s toxic to dogs — especially dark and baking chocolate. Even milk chocolate can cause trouble, and white chocolate is full of fat and sugar that can lead to pancreatitis. Let’s keep the eggs for the humans!

🥚 When hiding Easter eggs, please keep them out of reach of dogs, and make sure all chocolate eggs are accounted for once the hunt is over!

🎁 And Bunny, please dispose of foil wrappers properly — they’re shiny, tempting, and dangerous if swallowed.

🍞 Skip the Hot Cross Buns too!
Sultanas and raisins are super toxic to dogs — even a small amount can cause kidney failure.

🌸 And those lilies in your Easter bouquets?
They’re beautiful but deadly for cats — even licking the pollen can cause kidney failure. Best to leave them out altogether.

So please, Easter Bunny… help us keep tails wagging and whiskers twitching safely this weekend.

🐣 Here’s to a safe and happy Easter — for every-bunny in the family! 🐾

If your pets do eat anything they shouldn't this Easter please call the clinic ASAP on 5333 5959...don't wait for any signs to develop!

If you have any concerns about your pet’s health, promptly seeking veterinary attention during business hours can help prevent some medical conditions from turning into a serious after-hours emergency.

🦷 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲!

As we strive to provide the very best care for your pets, we have redesigned our dental procedures to provide a clearer treatment plan and cost estimate before any major work. This not only ensures the safest care for your pet, it also helps to manage unexpected expenses.

𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲

1️⃣ Stage 1 Dental: Under general anaesthesia, we perform a comprehensive oral exam, full-mouth X-rays, scaling and cleaning to assess your pet’s dental health. All findings are then discussed at discharge.

If further treatment is needed, a treatment plan and cost estimate is given and a Stage 2 Dental can be scheduled for a later date.

2️⃣ Stage 2 Dental: With the cleaning and assessment already completed, our vets can focus on any extractions or restorative work required . This reduces anaesthetic time for our patients and promotes a smoother recovery, especially in older pets.

💙 Staged dental care improves safety, treatment planning and financial management while giving your pet the best possible dental care.

📞 If you have any concerns about your pet’s dental health, please call the Clinic on 5333 5959

🌞 Being vigilant about skincare is just as important in animals as it is in people.

⏳If you notice any unusual lumps, bumps, or skin changes, prompt veterinary attention may make a big difference in the course of action required. Mast cell tumors, squamous cell carcinomas, and melanomas are some of the more common skin tumors seen in small animal practice.

🔎This gorgeous little whippet was presented to Dr. Claire Rose when his very observant owners noticed a small, dark lump under his haircoat at the base of his ear.

⭐️The small size of the mass meant that it could be easily removed and sent for histopathology. Fortunately, the results confirmed that the mass was benign, and no further treatment was required.

🔬If unusual masses are presented once they’ve reached a considerable size, removing anything cancerous with clear margins becomes much more difficult. There is also a greater risk of malignant cells spreading to other parts of the body.

✅ Do your pets have any lumps or bumps that you're concerned about? For your peace of mind, make an appointment today.

Behind the scenes with our nursing team! 👩‍⚕️🩺

🐶 From monitoring anaesthetics and assisting with surgical and diagnostic procedures, to comforting anxious pets and caring for our hospitalised patients, every moment is dedicated to the well being of the animals in our care. There is also an abundance of cleaning and preparation that is inherent in just about everything that our nurses do!

🐱 Veterinary nursing is shaped by team work, a commitment to learning, compassionate attention to detail and an overarching love of animals.

🐾 Any two days in the life of a vet nurse are never the same, and that’s what makes it so rewarding!
