Announcing the arrival of our beautiful new litter of 7 from Mumma Dallas and Papa Chilli.
Dallie had 5 girls and 2 boys on Christmas Eve.
We are so proud of the excellent doting mumma she is.
Our biggest heartfelt gratitude to Dr Zoe - and the team - at Bowen Vet Clinic for a perfect c section at 4am (on very little coffee and no hashbrown!) and for her caring, compassionate and generous nature. You made this experience so much easier and fun for all of us ❤️
Puppies available for their new homes 20th February 🏡

The Bureau or Meteorology has released a severe heatwave alert for the next three days for the northern region. We have already had patients presenting with heat stress, heat exhaustion and patients hospitalised in critical condition with heat stroke this summer. Take increased caution this week, especially with the elderly or unwell. If you have a short-nosed Brachy type dog that has not yet had BOAS surgery this goes double for you!

Dr Seth gave an uncharacteristic smile after vetting this little batch of Tawny Frogmouth orphans for our wildlife carer Jo this morning. Nickednamed ‘the Fraggles’ they have a couple of little health issues to be managed, and hopefully they will be ready to fly the coop once their little wings are strong enough.

Another cutie that the girls loved caring for. This little calf presented with sepsis, and was a 50:50 call, but intensive medical therapy saw her back on her feet, drinking and home to her owners to continue her therapy.

Blue buttons are washing up on bowens beaches again. After a day or two in the sun they start to smell and can be attractive to your dog to eat. It causes severe pain as they pass, and dogs often need strong pain relief to get them through. While they are present on the beaches it is advised to keep your dogs on-leash to ensure they do not eat them and end up spending a night in hospital on a morphine drip while they suffer through the ordeal.

Dr Seth got to spend the weekend with some of the top orthopedic surgeons in the country, keeping up to date with the best surgical options for our patients. It just so happened that the workshop was on Hamilton Island. Must be nice.

A new Lepto vaccination is in stock for anybody who travels to high risk areas. We still do not recommend routine vaccination for patients who live in Bowen, but for anybody that travels up the gulf, Mackay or other areas with a lot of Sugar Cane, it helps protect against a deadly disease endemic to these areas!

Maxi, like many of us, had an encounter with a brown snake on the walking track today! Brown snakes are really starting to move and we have seen a couple of bites in the last 7 days, so everybody stay snake aware this spring!
