🎉🐾 Happy 20th Birthday to the amazing Steffie! 🐾🎉

**NEW EPISODE: "How to Survive in General Practice (GP) as a New Grad."**

New grads and young vets, join us for an inspiring conversation between Dr Chris Franklin, Specialist Surgeon, and Dr Andrew Trezise, dedicated GP Veterinarian and founder of Peninsula Vet Care.

"My mantra when I became a vet was to create an experience clients would enjoy. I wanted to get to know the people, which is why we were successful from the first week," says Dr. Andrew.

Andrew and Chris share their experiences and advice for young doctors to survive in today's veterinary environment.

Time has flown. Our new grads, who commenced with us in February, have only three months to go before completing our 2024 new graduate program.

They have been rotating through our Mount Eliza GP Clinic and our specialist hospital, gaining experience in emergency consulting shifts, critical care, internal medicine, and surgery. This unique opportunity our program provides allows them to experience general and referral practices during their formative year, shaping them into well-rounded vets.

Drs. Chengqi, Ruth, and Jia have become part of our family this year. We love seeing their smiling faces daily and look forward to celebrating their successes in whichever area they choose as part of our Pen Vet family.

The veterinary industry never stops learning. It's part of our commitment to providing top-quality medicine and outstanding veterinary care every day.

Over the past few months, all of our Pen Vet Care teams have enjoyed CPR training as a summer refresher. Pictured here are some faces you may recognise of our Mornington vets and nurses.

Our Emergency and Critical Care Registrar, Dr Clara Lauinger, facilitated the training at each clinic. She is a certified RECOVER instructor specialising in CPR.

Thanks Dr Clara, and a big shout-out to allour vets and nurses who participated in these CPR sessions. You are all AMAZING.

In today's post, Dr Matt Ballas at Mornington investigates young Luna, the Staffie, for Pannus, or chronic superficial keratitis. This condition affects the cornea and third eyelid of a dog's eyes and can eventually result in blindness if not treated.

Luna is receiving the Schirmer Tear Test to rule out dry eye. The test comprises a paper strip folded and hooked over the lower eyelid. Once in place, tears begin to "wick" up the filter paper. The millimetre distance that the tears wick up the test strip in one minute represents the millimetres of tear production.

Photos of Luna's eye have been taken so we can monitor any changes. This will allow us to see if the pigmentation in Luna's eye is invading her cornea, or if it's simply an utterly normal pigment change.

Dr Matt has been Luna’s vet for a while. She loves his cuddles (and the occasional treat). 😉

Golden girl Smudge has been a cherished patient of our Mount Eliza clinic since she was a kitten. Drs. Gordon Watt and Peter Trinder have been dedicated to her health since 2003, when she received her first vaccination.

Pictured here with Nurse Shannon, Drs. Theresa and Steve, our entire team was excited to celebrate her 22nd birthday with her and her wonderful owners, Ken and Sue. We presented her with a special birthday gift, including her favourite treats, a small token of our appreciation for their trust and care.

Originally Smudge spent much of her daily life climbing trees and up onto the roof. She destroyed the curtain at the front door using it as a ladder to get onto the pelmet over the doorway.

These days, Ken reports that “Smudge enjoys meandering around the home and gets her steps in by wandering up and down the hallway. She demands lots of cuddles, and loves sitting on her owners' laps for TV time. In fact around 5.00 pm she starts to “round us up” so that we will sit down and watch TV allowing the lap to be present. She might be old but she certainly knows where the sunshine comes into the house – follows the sun from window to window. Maybe 5.00 pm has some cat significance because if we didn’t get her by then, she was a real challenge to get inside."

Happy 22nd birthday to elegant Smudge from all of us at Peninsula Vet Care!

That’s a wrap on dental month. A huge thank you to all the families who brought their pets in for free dental checks with our teams this August. We loved seeing everyone and hope we have helped make a difference for your best mate.

Pictured here are a few beautiful pets who said ahh for us this August.

Dental disease is very common in pets and can cause bad breath, pain, and reduced quality of life.

Dental cleans are performed year-round at all our clinics, and we have gold-standard equipment and monitoring, including dental radiographs, which help us assess the extent of the disease.

If you have any questions about your pet's dental health, please call your Peninsula Vet Care clinic.

As a reminder, our website has a video explaining how you can brush your pets teeth at home. You can watch it on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjLA2Xc_-JI
