That's quackers! 🦆 Over the weekend, our Waipukurau team got a surprise when a little duckling (now named Ernie) decided to rush into the clinic to seek shelter in the store room! After a careful rescue, Ernie has now found a new pond full of friends to splash around with. 🦆💦

Have you ever wondered if acupuncture could be beneficial for your pet? 🐾

If your dog isn’t a fan of needles, you might be hesitant about acupuncture, but here’s the good news: the needles used are incredibly fine, and most pets tolerate them surprisingly well! In fact, many pets become relaxed or even sleepy during the treatment. 😌 It’s rare for pets to need sedation for acupuncture, and even those who typically shy away from needles often handle acupuncture with ease.

Friendly reminder to book your cattle scanning! 🐄

Book your scanning in for 49 days from bull withdrawal for accurate testing.

Scanning enables us to quickly confirm whether a cow is wet/dry and the gestation of the pregnancy which gives you peace of mind and the ability to plan for the calving season ahead 👍
