When you go to wash your pet’s bowl, have you ever noticed that slimy film on the inside? That’s called biofilm, a layer of bacteria that builds up on surfaces where water sits.

It might not look dangerous, but it can actually make your furry friend sick if it’s not cleaned away regularly. The fix is simple, wash their bowl daily with hot, soapy water and always refill with fresh, clean water. 💦

✨ Bonus tip: after washing, let the bowl dry out in the sun when you can. Sunlight helps kill off bacteria and keeps the bowl fresher for longer. A small daily habit (with a little help from the sun) makes a big difference to your pet’s health and happiness! 🐶🐱

✨ Ollie here ✨

The gals at the JABBY-JAB house always make such a fuss over me, calling me the most handsomest boy and snapping pics like I’m ‘Scooby-Doo’ level famous. 📸🐾. Today they even crowned me with this fun party hat because I was so brave 👏🏻.

I’m rocking my all-natural highlights, my signature fuzzy brows, and the hairiest little legs you ever did see. And while I might look like I’m just here for the fashion show, the real reason for my party hat is because I had my needle like a champ and picked up my anti-anxiety meds. You see, when Mum leaves me home alone, I get really worried and sometimes that makes me a little silly (and yes… a little destructive 🙈). Mum says she’s so proud of me, and I’m learning that needing a little help is totally okay.

Just like people, some pets need medication to feel calm and safe, it doesn’t change who we are, it just helps us live our best, happiest lives 💛.

So here’s to bravery, love, and getting the support we need. Because at the end of the day, I’m still the same goofy, loveable Ollie 🐶✨

🐾🖤 “You got a friend in me.” 🖤🐾

It was so special meeting little Huxley for his very first visit. He has some big ‘boots’ to fill, after his family said goodbye to their beautiful senior boy early last year. Opening their hearts again wasn’t easy, but they knew their home was ready for love again and Huxley has already brought so much joy.

With his bouncy 3am and 5am wake-ups for toilet breaks, he’s certainly keeping everyone busy, but his family are so dedicated to giving him the very best start in life. That’s the incredible thing about dogs, they may be small, but they carry with them an endless capacity to heal, to bring laughter, and to remind us what unconditional love feels like. ✨

We feel so privileged to be part of Huxley’s journey from the very beginning, watching him grow, supporting his health, and celebrating all the little milestones along the way. Here’s to Huxley, to new beginnings, and to the paws that have left this earth but will always be remembered. 🐾🤍

🦴No Bones About It – Let’s Keep Smiles Safe 🦴

Lots of pups love a bone, but did you know they can actually do more harm than good? Despite the old myth, bones don’t keep teeth clean and they can cause some nasty problems like:

🦴 Broken or fractured teeth
🦴 Painful blockages in the tummy
🦴 Getting stuck in the mouth or throat

Take our friend Kevin 🐶💛 he came in with a marrow bone stuck on the roof of his mouth. Ouch! The sharp edges were pressing into his mouth and causing him discomfort. With a little help (and a safe snooze under sedation) we were able to remove it and get Kevin back to feeling happy again.

👉 There are plenty of safer (and tastier!) alternatives to keep your pets teeth sparkling and tails wagging. Chat to us next time you visit 🐾 😊

🧼✂️🐶 Why Does Dog Grooming Cost What It Does? 🐶✂️🧼

We get asked this a lot – so here’s a peek behind the scenes of what goes into every groom:

✂️ Professional Styling – Our groomer Mel is a trained stylist with years of skill and experience. It’s not “just a haircut” – it’s breed-specific grooming, coat health maintenance, and making sure your pup looks (and feels!) their absolute best.

🛁 The Full Package – A groom includes a deep wash, blow dry, brushing, clipping, trimming, and all the finishing touches. Every step takes time, precision, and care.

🐶 Our Clients Don’t Sit Still! – Unlike people in a salon chair, dogs jump, wiggle, spin, and sometimes protest. Mel uses patience, gentle handling, and her knowledge of animal behaviour to keep each pet safe and comfortable.

❤️ Safety & Wellbeing First – Scissors, clippers, and dryers are all used near sensitive areas, so your dog’s comfort and safety are always Mel’s top priority. She’s constantly checking stress levels, body language, and overall wellbeing.

❄️ Dedication You Can See – Mel often comes out of a groom looking like she’s been through a snow blizzard, covered head-to-toe in dog hair – and she wouldn’t have it any other way. Her kindness and care shine through in every single groom.

✨ The Bottom Line: You’re not just paying for a haircut. You’re investing in time, expertise, safety, and the genuine love that Mel pours into her work - thanks Mel, we appreciate you. ♥️

‼️‼️ TICK SEASON IS HERE! ‼️‼️

🦁 Leo came in for what was meant to be a simple belly hair trim, but during his check-up, Dr Jo discovered a very large (and very engorged!) paralysis tick hiding on his neck. This is a big reminder that here in sunny QLD, we are well and truly in ‘PEAK tick season’. Paralysis ticks can be life-threatening to cats and dogs, and they’re masters at hiding in places you’d never expect.

Signs of paralysis tick poisoning in pets:
🚨Weak or wobbly back legs
🚨Change in bark or meow (voice sounds different)
🚨Coughing, gagging, retching or vomiting
🚨Difficulty breathing
🚨Collapse or sudden severe weakness
If you notice any of these signs, treat it as an emergency and contact us asap. Treatment with tick antiserum and hospitalization can cost thousands of dollars and sadly, even with intensive care, it is not always guaranteed to save them.

👩🏼‍⚕️ Prevention is KEY ~
✅ Keep your pets up to date with tick prevention
✅ Ask us about the yearly paralysis tick injection for extra protection.
✅ Check your pets daily (ears, lips, under collar, between toes, under tail)

🐈 Leo was lucky today but not every pet will be. Stay safe, stay vigilant, and keep those ticks away this season. 🐾

🐥☀️Spring is just around the corner, which means it’s wildlife breeding season! ☀️🐥

We’re already seeing an influx of injured or displaced wildlife needing veterinary care. During this busy season, please be extra mindful:
🚗 Slow down on the roads, especially at dawn and dusk.
🦘🐨 If you come across wildlife that looks injured or out of place, give us a call on 3849 4912. Our team can guide you through the best steps to ensure the best possible outcome.

🐣 A little reminder, not every “alone” baby animal is actually abandoned. Often, youngsters are just exploring their big new world while mum is close by keeping watch. When in doubt, always reach out to us for advice before intervening.

Together, we can give our precious wildlife the best chance this breeding season. 💚

‘Every life is worth advocating for, because compassion has no limits’ ~👩🏼‍⚕️🩺🐾

We see pets in their happiest moments and in their most vulnerable ones. What makes the biggest difference is the love and knowledge of their families (YOU). You know their quirks, their routines, their silent ways of saying, “something’s not right.”

Together, we make the perfect team, you as their voice at home, and us as their advocate in clinic. Because when it comes to the ones who mean the world to us, every single life is worth fighting for.
