On Saturday we lost this beautiful soul, Joey.
I met Joey in November and in February he was diagnosed with an aggressive bone cancer. Poor Joey was terrified of clinics and often wasn't the easiest to manage in a clinic setting... but with the housecall consults he was so relaxed and happy and we created a very close bond. Unfortunately he wasn't a candidate for chemotherapy etc but over the last 5 months he had been doing amazingly well on a blend of Chinese herbs and CBD which helped control his pain and give him back his spark.
I'm so very sad that you're no longer here, I will miss your cheekiness and loving personality, but I am very grateful I met you and was able to spend so much quality time with you, goodbye gorgeous Joey 💔🐾🌈

Yesterday we said goodbye to our lovely cat, Tobias...a much loved member of our family.
We were so lucky to have you in our lives and grateful we could say goodbye to you in a stress free way at home with everyone who loved you surrounding you.

Poor Tank was not happy to find out that vet consults can be done at home 😅 but he did begrudgingly accept some treats and pats! With time and patience, trust can be built up with even the most anxious dogs and vet visits can be made less stressful 💜🐶💜

Look at these sweet Kelpie pups! Super playful and cheeky and now ready to go to their new homes after their first vaccination and microchip 🐶💜

28/05/2024

"Dr Troy, you can't leave without giving me more treats!" 😇
Cheeky Ollie wouldn't let me leave at the end of the consult 😂 Home consults, with the reduced stress and longer consult time, are great for creating a close bond with your pet and the vet. I count myself very lucky to have some beautiful friendships with my lovely patients (and clients). 🥰

Vaccinated this beautiful litter of Rottweiler puppies, they've just turned 8 weeks old and ready to go to their furever homes. Did you spot the hidden dachshund puppy?!

03/05/2024

Look at his cute little ears 🦇 Gorgeous Tommy had his final puppy vaccinations this week...he is super smart and quickly realised he would get treats if he sat on the scales- he weighed himself lots of times 🤣🐶🐾

03/05/2024

Sweet little Dolly was super brave for her second vaccination this week! Now she will be able to get out and about and meet some new friends 🐾🐾 It's super important to introduce your puppy to as many new situations, people and friendly/healthy animals as possible whilst they are young (before 16 weeks!) to help create a well balanced and calm adult dog 🐶💜🐶

11/04/2024

Look at these gorgeous German Shorthaired Pointer puppies! 🐶🐶💜 They had their first vaccination and microchip today...some are still looking for their forever home...how can you resist those cute faces 😉😁

01/03/2024

I saw sweet Scout a few weeks ago for a nasty cough and sneeze...now after a few weeks treatment he is finally back to his cheeky well self 💜🐾🐾

These gorgeous bunnies had their annual check-up this weekend. Their dedicated owner provides a great environment for them with lots of toys and room to play as well as a great diet of lots of hay and grass. Yearly check-ups are important for all pets including rabbits to ensure a healthy life 🐾💜🐾

My Calm and Cosy cat wraps make it super easy and reduce the stress of check ups and nail clips for your feline friends 😻 Poor little Puss (black and white) was not too impressed (...if looks good kill 🤣) but it allowed her to have a full check up including a blood test which is so important as cats become older to check for kidney issues.
Annual check ups are so important for your pets and visits to the clinic can be super stressful for cats especially so why not try a home visit instead 💜🐾🐾

Important Update!!! 🐾🐾

Over the Christmas period I will be closed from Monday 18th December - Friday 29th December.

So make sure you book in next week (I'm open Monday-Sunday) for any check ups and last minute vaccinations!!

You can book online at https://vet.digitail.io/clinics/dr-troy or call me on 0479164069 if you want to have a chat before you book 😸🐕🐾🐾

Hey Everyone!!

I have some appointments available this weekend (I'm open Saturday 9-4pm and Sunday 9-12pm).

Home visits are so versatile, I can do a full check up, give any vaccinations due (I also do antibody titre testing too!), take blood samples and urine samples, and prescribe any medications needed without you needing to leave your home! Almost all consults that are done at the vet clinic can be done as a home visit.

Dogs and cats are so much calmer and happier in their own environment so home consults are particularly great for anxious animals or if you have multiple pets and/or young children.

You can book online at https://vet.digitail.io/clinics/dr-troy or give me a call on 0479164069.

Thanks and looking forward to meeting you and your pet soon 🐾🐾

And "Most relaxed dog in the World" award goes to...Zoe!!! Haha she stayed in this position for the whole consult...including for her nail clip!!! The only time she sat up was for her treat 🤣🤣🐕🐾🐾

29/11/2023

Chester and Millie were super relaxed for their check ups! 🐕🐾💜
Home visits are great if you have multiple pets and/or young children! You can keep the kids entertained at home whilst your pets are checked over without any of the hassle and stress! 🎨

Are you struggling to get your pets to the vet? Would it be easier for you to have weekend appointments but nowhere is open?

Good News!! 😁

I'm now open alternative weekends starting this weekend!! 🎉🎉
My opening hours are SAT 9am-4pm and SUN 9am-12pm.

Consults are booked in 1 hour time slots to give plenty of time for a thorough check up and travel between consults.

Home visits are the perfect option if your pet is anxious at the clinic, if they struggle to get into the car, if you have young children or if you work from home and find it hard to make time to get to the clinic. Or if you just want a more relaxing veterinary experience in the comfort of your own home where your pet feels most safe. 💜

Look at all the happy faces I've seen so far 😍 🐾🐾

15/11/2023

Saw gorgeous, soppy Max yesterday! Look at his beautiful brown eyes 😍🐕🐾

15/11/2023

Cheeky Chocky decided my weighing scales made the perfect bed 😂 Home visits are great for animals with severe arthritis who struggle to get in the car...this little guy has an arthritis care plan in place and was so well behaved for his nail clip which he usually hates! Try a home visit if your pet gets anxious at the clinic 🐾🐾

15/11/2023

Little Annabella was shy for the camera but she loved the treats and cuddles! And her brother Joey (who is more pony than dog) agrees...who could say no to giving more treats to that little face 😍Home vet visits are a great option for palliative care as well as arthritis management, especially for anxious dogs or large dogs that are difficult to get in the car!! With some arthritis pain relief injections onboard, Joey will be galloping around again in no time 🐎🐕🐾

04/11/2023

"More treats please Dr Troy" 😂 Lovely Willow was wonderful for her vaccination today! She was super relaxed, letting me have lots of tummy rubs 😍 Thanks Willow 🐾🐾🐾
