Still missing - Smythesdale
He went missing (Friday 24/05) and we are having trouble finding him. He was last seen around the pine trees between the start of Brownโs road and Vermont road. If you see him, please let me know. His name is Gizmo. He is very tame, but probably very scared.
His favourite things to say are hello, watcha doin, and how are ya.
He is very loved and we really want him home.

Coming into the colder weather, sometimes you may notice your pet becoming a bit stiff and struggling to move as they usually would.
Arthritis is common in older pets and can affect your pets mobility and cause pain.
We have lots of options on managing arthritis and to make your pet more comfortable.
Call our clinic on 4317 5888 to speak to one of our friendly nurses about managing your pets arthritis.
On this World Veterinary Day, we express our gratitude to our dedicated veterinarians for their unwavering commitment and hard work.
Today we celebrate our amazing vets and thank them for all that they do!
Their compassion, kindness and hard work go into every patient they see. The role is not easy - at times can be physically and emotionally draining and often demanding many unseen hours.
Happy World Veterinary Day!

๐ฃ Fireworks tonight at Lake Wendouree!
Don't forget there are fireworks scheduled for tonight at Lake Wendouree, the 15 minute display is set to start at 9.30pm.
Fireworks are likely to be unsettling for many of our pets around Lake Wendouree and the surrounding area. Bring your pets indoors if possible and if your pet is outside make sure the yard/paddock is secure and free from anything they can become entangled in.
It is also a good reminder to make sure that your petโs microchip details are up to date in case there are any escapees!
Billy was too preoccupied with exploring the new consultation room to stop and have his photo taken. Heโs cute at any angle though!
We know this is the time of year things can go wrong so we have planned ahead and allocated spare appointments for this whole week to ensure we can see your animals in a timely manner. And, we have appointments from today available.
Please call 4317 5888 to make an appointment
Wishing all our wonderful clients and patients a very Merry Christmas. We hope you all have a wonderful day.
