Did you know that in Australia, 71% of vets and 97% of vet nurses are women.
Today, on International Women’s Day, we recognise the incredible women who dedicate their lives to animal health and welfare.
Their expertise, compassion, and dedication are at the heart of everything we do, from delivering life-saving care to animals in need to strengthening communities across the Region.
Veterinary work is challenging, yet these women continue to lead with resilience and kindness. Today, we celebrate their impact and acknowledge the need for ongoing support and recognition for women in this vital profession.
Thank you to every woman making a difference in animal welfare—your work changes lives. 💙

Sometimes our guests require special services when they stay with us here at the Leeton Vets. Ms Brandy was a little nervous about the sound of the bowl scraping on the ground so she was blessed with some company for breakfast today. 🥰🐶🦴 #spoileddogs #patientcare #AnythingforPets
Exited to announce that Dr Jess will be having twins this year! 😳💕👶👶

These two cutie patooties decided late Sunday arvo, that playing near a spicy nope rope 🐍 would be fun. 😳
They were found near a brown snake. Their family didn’t see them get bitten but thought it best to get them seen by our vet just in case.
Lucky they did come in as both Jasper & Kobe started showing symptoms such as drooling & weakness when they arrived.
Both dogs needed to have antivenin and IV fluid treatment. They also needed to have oxygen support as the snake venom affects their ability to breathe well. As they didn’t like being separated, they shared the oxygen tent for a while until they were both stable.
Both dogs were well enough to go home to their family the next day and as adorable as they are, we hope we don’t see them again for a little while. 😉🥰

Heeler pups! 🐶 These cheeky babies were so well behaved & snuggly on their visit today. We only wished we had more time to play with them. ❤️🥰
Dental health affects the health of the whole body. 🦷
Bacteria from the mouth that causes plaque can enter the bloodstream & affect the heart, kidneys and other organs. 🦷 🦠😬
When your pet comes in for a dental procedure, they are placed under a general anaesthetic before we begin the procedure.
Dental X-rays are taken of all the teeth. 🦷 It is impossible to tell the full health of the teeth without X-rays. Often we find abnormalities that are hidden by the gums through these X-rays. 🩻 This dog had had teeth removed previously but was lucky enough not to need any taken this time.
He had the plaque scaled off his teeth before they were probed for any abnormalities and then given a polish with a nice minty paste before being woken up to go home. 🏠 🐶
August is Dental Month & if you have any concerns about your pets dental health, call us to have a check up with our team of Vets & Nurses.
We love seeing siblings wrestling together. These 2 girls were part of a litter that came in today for their first vaccine & microchips before they start looking for their new forever homes.
Puppies learn a lot about good social behaviour through play and it’s just fun to watch. ☺️
Vet visits don’t have to be scary.
If your pet isn’t as happy as this critter with their vet appointments, talk to our friendly team about ways we can help to make it less stressful. 😌🐶🐾

Ruger got herself into a little bit of trouble a couple of weeks ago. She was being given a few dinner leftovers from her human when she snatched the one thing she wasn’t supposed to have. 😳🌽 Uh oh! Cue a late night Vet visit! Lucky that her humans reacted quickly & got her seen to before it could get past her stomach and cause a LOT of damage. #luckypuppy #vetlife #vetnurselife #emergencyvet #corncobs
