🎄 Holiday Treats That Are NOT Pet-Friendly! 🐾🚫

The holidays bring delicious goodies for us… but some of those treats can be dangerous for our furry family members. Please keep pets safe by keeping these foods out of reach.

If your pet gets into something they shouldn’t, call us right away or contact the nearest emergency clinic.

Let’s keep the season merry, bright, and safe for every paw! ❤️🐶🐱

🌾 It’s Grass Seed Season! 🌾
As the weather warms up, those pesky grass seeds are back — and they can cause BIG problems for your pets.
These tiny barbed seeds can burrow into ears, paws, noses, and even eyes, leading to pain and infection.

👀 Keep an eye out for:
-Excessive licking or chewing at paws
-Shaking the head or scratching at ears
-Sneezing or sudden swelling

After every walk, give your pet a quick brush and check their fur, paws, and ears. Early detection can prevent serious issues!

If you notice any of these signs, give us a call — we’re here to help keep your pets happy and comfortable all season long. 💚

🐾 Happy Vet Nurse Day! 🐾

Today we celebrate the heart and hands behind every vet clinic — our amazing Veterinary Nurses! 💚

From comforting anxious pets to assisting in life-saving surgeries, cleaning up messes (and we mean every kind), and offering endless compassion to both animals and their humans — vet nurses do it all, and often without enough recognition.

To our vet nurses: Brianna, Nicole, Jaime, Courtney and Jemima - Thank you for your dedication, your patience, your skill, and your giant hearts. The animals may not be able to say it, but we will — you are truly appreciated. 💉🐶🐱🩺

If you know a vet nurse, tag them below and show them some love today! 👇👇

🦷🐾 Did you know that 80% of dogs and 70% of cats show signs of dental disease by age 3? Just like us, our pets need regular dental care to stay healthy and pain-free!

Bad breath, trouble eating, or even just a little tartar buildup can be signs of bigger issues beneath the surface. Booking your pet in for a dental checkup helps prevent pain, infection, and costly procedures later on.

✅ Fresher breath
✅ Healthier teeth and gums
✅ Happier, healthier pets!

📅 Call us today to book your pet’s dental checkup – their smile will thank you! 😺🐶💙

🚨 Parvovirus Alert – Mirrabooka Area 🚨

We have had a positive case of Parvovirus in Mirrabooka. This highly contagious and often deadly virus affects dogs, especially unvaccinated puppies.

⚠️ What you need to know:

Parvo spreads through contaminated surfaces, dog poo, and even shoes/clothing.

Symptoms include vomiting, bloody diarrhea, lethargy, and loss of appetite.
*Please note that not all cases show bloody diarrhea!

It is fatal if left untreated – early vet care is critical.

🐶 What to do:
✅ Keep your dog up-to-date with vaccinations.
✅ Avoid dog parks and public areas if your dog is not fully vaccinated.
✅ Disinfect shoes and hands after walking outside.
✅ Watch for symptoms and see a vet immediately if you’re concerned.

Please share to help keep our local pets safe! 🐾
Stay alert and keep those tails wagging. 💛

🧼🐾 Towel SOS! 🐾🧼

We’re running low on towels and could really use your help! If you have any old, clean towels you no longer need, we’d love to give them a second life here at the clinic.

They help us keep our furry patients warm, dry, and comfortable every day. 💙

Donations can be dropped off during our opening hours — thank you so much for your support! 🐶🐱
