CHRISTMAS HAM ( including ham bone )- Can cause digestive problems, vomiting, diarrhea & even pancreatitis, which can be deadly.
CHRISTMAS CAKE/MINCE PIES (including grapes, raisin & sultanas) – These are toxic to dogs . Ingestion of even small amounts can cause kidney failure.
CANDY CANE –Some candy canes contain artificial sweetener “xylitol” which is toxic to dogs. They can cause low blood sugar levels, liver failure ,seizures or even death.

Unfortunately, people continue to inappropriately contact our staff personally. This occurs all hours of the day or night with questions that are not urgent such as what time is the clinic open? What the cost of things are? How is their animal going? & What do they think is wrong with their pet? This is happening via contacting them by SMS, Facebook or Instagram messenger, phoning their personal phones or stopping them whilst they are out shopping.

The clinic phone number is 02 6972 2863. This is ALWAYS the first point of call for any enquiries or to find out the number for the Veterinarian on call that day. If you phone or contact ANYONE else that is not on call outside of when they are on call, FEES WILL APPLY as if you were contacting the emergency service. It is incredibly inappropriate and self-centred. We have tried to say it in many different ways to ask people to stop, however it still happens on a daily basis. We don't know how else to say it, so we are introducing this policy. We are all entitled to time off, this includes the staff that do on call, they are entitled to not be harassed on their personal phones whilst they are at work. During business hours we have staff that will answer the phone and help with your enquires.

Hope everyone enjoys a few days of rest over the weekend.

The weather was fantastic for a sale yesterday. We managed to get out of the office for a little while to get to watch Austral-Eden Merino & Poll Merino Stud sale, one of our long time clients. It was a great chance to see a few other clients outside of the usual work setting. We rarely get the chance to make it to these events.

There is a truck and traffic control blocking the front of our building and footpath. When we just asked how long they would be there they informed us probably 2 days! The traffic control person suggested people park at BP, however there is some parking space in front of The Lands Council. Sorry for for the inconvenience all.

It has been great to see so many farmers in the district improving their equipment and facilities in the last few years, it often makes jobs quicker, easier & more comfortable for all involved. There are still some that can't see any issue with unsafe facilities, or untrained staff when we bring this up. If your vet, stock and station agent, or other service provider tell you your facilities needs to be improved, it is for everyone's safety and efficiency. This is made clear in the attached post by Dorrigo vets where they luckily were only injured and not killed! Everyone is entitled to refuse to work in conditions they feel are unsafe.
