Our dedicated healthcare team at Great Western Animal Hospital, are committed to caring for and improving the quality of life of family pets and their wonderful owners Since our small beginnings in the 1960’s as a one vet practice, Great Western Animal Hospital has been renovated and modernised over the years to become a Fear Free seven-vet practice with great facilities and a dedicated, compassio

We as a team are committed to high quality Healthcare, Veterinary Medicine and Surgery. This means that it is very important for all our team members to participate in ongoing education and external courses to constantly update their skills. Our vets will often participate in continuing education seminars, conferences and courses to ensure we are delivering the most up to date standard of care. Our Nurses are also committed to their education by attending seminars and participating in training courses. All of our nurses are either Cert IV qualified or working towards their qualification, those that are qualified are also AVNAT Registered. We have a dedicated reception team who focuses on Customer Service and Satisfaction. They make sure that we maintain regular and close communication with our clients when their pets have recently undergone treatment so that the vets can better monitor their progress.

🐶✨ Meet Winnie! This adorable pup visited Dr. Lauren for her puppy vaccinations recently, and she was the sweetest little patient! 💉🐾

Did you know that puppies need their last puppy vaccination at 16 weeks of age or older? 🗓️ This final booster is crucial for their protection, ensuring they develop long-lasting immunity against serious diseases like parvovirus, distemper, and hepatitis. 🦠🚫

Without it being given after 16 weeks of age, puppies may still be vulnerable as their immunity wears off before their first adult vaccination, so completing their full vaccination schedule is the best way to keep them happy, healthy, and ready for adventures! 🏡💛

🐶✂️ Meet Prince – The Handsome Pup Who Got a Stress-Free Makeover! 💙✨

Prince finds the grooming process a little overwhelming, so to keep him calm and comfortable, he had his groom done under gentle sedation with our team. Doesn't he look fabulous? Look at his before and after! Prince has been coming to us for years for his sedation grooms and will combine them with his annual dental sometimes as well!

At Great Western Animal Hospital, we offer sedated grooms for pets who experience anxiety, fear, or stress at the groomers. This ensures they stay relaxed, safe, and comfortable while getting the care they need!

💙 Perfect for pets who:
✔️ Get nervous or aggressive during grooming
✔️ Have a history of stress at the groomers
✔️ Need a safe, vet-supervised environment

If your pet struggles with grooming, we’re here to help! Contact us today to discuss if a sedated groom is the right option for your furry friend. 🐾

📞 Call us on 9631 9322 to book!
