💔 Is Your Pet Slowing Down? It Might Be Their Heart 💔
If your usually bouncy buddy is suddenly slowing down, sleeping more, or has a persistent cough — it could be more than just getting older.

Common signs of heart disease in pets include:
🐾 Lethargy or tiring easily
🐾 Persistent coughing (especially at night)
🐾 Laboured or fast breathing
🐾 Reduced appetite
🐾 Fainting or weakness
🐾 Swollen belly from fluid build-up

These signs can sneak up slowly — but early detection makes a big difference! If you’ve noticed any of these changes, book a check-up so we can listen to their heart and run any needed tests. 💉

Let’s keep those tails wagging strong 💓

🐾 Patch the Cutie Patootie! 🐾
This handsome senior gentleman is Patch — a 15-year-old Border Collie cross, what a sweet soul 💙

He popped in today for his regular Cartrophen injection, which helps keep his joints comfy and his tail wagging! 🐕✨

Cartrophen supports joint health by improving cartilage repair and reducing inflammation — perfect for helping golden oldies like Patch stay mobile and pain-free. We have a range of joint support options too, including supplements and pain relief, depending on your pet’s needs.

Patch took it all in stride. What a champ! 🐶💉💕

Nelly’s Annual Check-Up! 🐾
Sweet little Nelly the Maltese cross popped in today for her yearly health check and vaccinations 💕

Annual health assessments are super important even if your pet seems perfectly fine. They help us:
✅ Catch early signs of illness
✅ Check teeth, joints, skin, weight, heart and more
✅ Keep vaccinations up to date for protection against preventable diseases

Just like us, pets benefit from regular check-ins to stay happy and healthy as they age 🐶💛

Nelly was an absolute gem — and yes, she got a treat (or three) for being so brave!

🐾 Big Day for Mr & Wilson! 🐾
These adorable whippet brothers were absolute champs today during their visit for for their snip snip ✂️ and a ProHeart heartworm prevention booster.💉💪

Plenty of cuddles (and treats!) were involved, and they’re now back home resting like the good boys they are 💙💙

Keeping your pup protected and healthy is one of the best gifts you can give. Chat to us about desexing and long-term parasite prevention.

✨ Little Lola’s Big Milestone! ✨
This gorgeous golden girl came in today for her final puppy vaccinations — what a superstar she’s been! 🐾💉

Vaccinations are given as a series in the first few months to help build up strong, lasting immunity while your pup’s immune system is still developing. With this final visit, Lola’s all set to safely explore the world! 🌍🐶

She also had a little help with some a**l gland drama (we’ve all been there, Lola 😅). Soft poos can sometimes make things worse, so we recommended adding a bit of psyllium husk, cooked pumpkin or carrot to her meals to help firm things up and keep her feeling comfy 🍠🌾

Lola handled everything like a pro — and yes, she left with plenty of pats and praise 💛

🐾 Sweet Pepper was in to see us recently after her owner Rory — one of our amazing vet nurses — noticed she’d been showing signs of back pain 💔

As all pet parents know, subtle changes can mean something more is going on, and we’re so glad Rory trusted her instincts and brought Pepper in for a check-up.

Right now, Pepper is on a trial of anti-inflammatories and being closely monitored. If she doesn’t start to improve, the next step will be X-rays to get a clearer picture of what might be causing her discomfort.

We’re sending Pepper all the healing vibes and hoping she’s back to feeling her best soon! 💕🐶

👀 Who’s that peeking through the doorway? It’s Annie and Evie, our adorable pair of Silky Terriers having a little sticky beak during their visit! 🐾💕

These two were in for their vaccinations and worming—important parts of their regular health care to keep them protected from nasties and feeling their best!

Vaccinations help defend against serious diseases, while regular worming keeps their tummies healthy and parasite-free. ✅

Plus, we love any excuse to see these two cheeky faces 😍

🌟 Cleo’s in the clinic! 🌿💉

This beautiful Wolfhound cross is one of our clinic favourites — always gentle, always sweet, and today she was in for her annual vaccinations before heading off on a holiday to sunny WA! ☀️🐾

Keeping up with annual vaccinations is so important to:
✔️ Protect against serious (and preventable) diseases
✔️ Keep your pet safe when travelling or boarding
✔️ Maintain up-to-date health records
✔️ Catch any early signs of illness during a yearly health check

Cleo’s all set now — bags packed (sort of 😉), vaccines done, and ready for some well-deserved warmer weather!

Safe travels, Cleo! 💛

🐶 Say hello to Boss! 💙 This very handsome 1-year-old American Staffy came in to see us with some itchy, irritated ears.

Ear issues are one of the most common problems we see in the clinic — and they can be super uncomfortable for our furry friends! 😣

Dr. Zoe took a swab from Boss’s ears to get to the bottom of what’s causing the irritation. After a thorough check-up, he was sent home with some ear drops and should be feeling much better soon! 🐾✨

If your pet is shaking their head, scratching their ears, or showing signs of discomfort, don’t wait — we’re here to help!

🚨 COMMON PASTURE HAZARDS 🌿
Recent Drought conditions mean many horses are grazing closer to the ground — and into trouble. Here's a quick guide to 4 plants you don’t want in your paddock 👇

👉 1. Flatweed (False Dandelion)
🔸 Looks like a dandelion with yellow flowers
🔸 Linked to Stringhalt – sudden, jerky hind leg movement
🔸 Common in overgrazed paddocks
🟢 Check out Bettsy’s recent case on our page!

👉 2. Capeweed
🔸 Bright yellow daisy-like flowers with dark centres
🔸 Can cause nitrate toxicity or photosensitisation in some cases
🔸 Thrives in bare paddocks during drought

👉 3. Paterson’s Curse
🔸 Purple flower spikes, low-growing rosette
🔸 Causes liver damage in horses and photosensitisation
🔸 Toxic if grazed in large amounts

👉 4. Annual Ryegrass (with toxic endophyte)
🔸 Looks like regular pasture grass
🔸 Infected seed heads can produce ryegrass staggers
🔸 Symptoms: tremors, staggering, collapse

✅ What to do:

Walk your paddocks weekly
Pull or spray suspect weeds
Feed extra hay if grazing is poor
Call us if your horse shows unusual signs
