25.01.2022 If you have changed your phone number or address since your pet was microchipped, then it’s time to update their chip details. Check the paperwork that came with your pet’s microchip, as often you can call or update details online. If you no longer have that paperwork, check your pet’s microchip on www.petaddress.com.au to find out which registry they are on. If you don’t know your pet’s microchip number, just bring them into the clinic and we can scan their chip for the number.

24.01.2022 Do you have a cat that vomits? Although vomiting can be caused by medical conditions, one normal cause of occasional vomiting in otherwise healthy cats is hairballs. As cats self-groom, they ingest a lot of hair that is normally passed in their faeces, but sometimes this hair is vomited up. If you find your cat vomiting or retching frequently, in large volumes, or is unwell, make an appointment with us today.

23.01.2022 Like us, our pet’s require vaccinations as part of their development and to help with infectious disease prevention. Check out some of the local park hazards that our pets can face!



22.01.2022 Washing your dog regularly can help to reduce the allergens that collect in their coat - but never wash your pet more frequently than every 2 weeks to avoid stripping their natural oils!

21.01.2022 Do you own a snub-nosed or flat-faced dog? Also known as brachycephalic dogs, flat-faced breeds such as pugs, French bulldogs and British bulldogs are at an increased risk of developing breathing problems, and this risk only increases as they get older. Close monitoring can catch the problem before it gets too severe. We are happy to do a brachycephalic airway assessment on any flat-faced breed, just give us a call.

21.01.2022 As pets get older, their dietary requirements change. Older pets need less energy in their food but benefit from nutritional support that eases the symptoms of arthritis or cognitive decline. If you have a cat over 11 years of age, a small dog over 8 years of age or a large dog over 5 years of age, they could benefit from a specially-formulated diet for senior pets. Call our clinic for more information.

19.01.2022 When travelling with dogs in the car, it’s important they are adequately restrained for both their safety and yours. Many car restraints for dogs aren’t thoroughly tested for safety, with reviews by Choice and the NRMA previously failing many of the available products as unsafe for people, pets or both. Make sure you research car restraints before buying and purchase a good quality restraint that has been thoroughly safety tested to protect both you and your pooch.

18.01.2022 Working from home and more one-on-one time has likely meant your pet has been spoiled with attention these past few months. Young pets growing up in the COVID-era have likely never experienced large gatherings of people and may be apprehensive during Christmas festivities. Ensure you give your pet a quiet place to retreat to if things become too much and to give them plenty of support if they become anxious. Contact us if you’re worried about your pet’s anxiety.

18.01.2022 During springtime new life is everywhere and this is certainly the case for many native animals. At this time of year we have many clients and members of the public bringing young or injured wildlife to us for care, which is so important and we are more than happy to help. If you see sick or injured wildlife, please do not hesitate to call us for advice or bring them into the practice. Alternatively if it is not safe for you to assist or you are unable to, you can contact Wildlife Victoria on (03) 8400 7300. Pictured below is a gorgeous baby tawny, now rehabilitating with carers

17.01.2022 Nothing can bring an otherwise tough dog to their knees like a torn nail. Torn nails can bleed dramatically, but the real issue is the exposed bundle of nerves and blood vessels in the ‘quick’, which can lead to significant pain and infection, if left untreated. It’s best to bring your dog into the clinic if they’ve torn a nail. If there is a lot of bleeding, you can gently wrap their foot in a towel and call us for an appointment.

17.01.2022 When was the last time you had a chance to stop and think about your pet’s safety around the home? Our homes contain many everyday items that are suitable for human consumption but can be harmful to pets. As our pets are naturally inquisitive, even a cupboard door left open or a lid off a container can quickly make for a dangerous situation. In Australia, pet poisonings represent a large number of phone calls and visits to the vet each year. The good news is that most of th...ese poisonings are preventable. Pet poisonings come in a range of shapes and sizes - here are some of the most common culprits you should know about!

11.01.2022 How often you should wash your dog depends on their breed, lifestyle and skin health. If your dog is a short-coated breed that lives outside, they probably only need to be washed with gentle dog shampoo twice a year. If you have a long-coated breed, or a dog that lives inside, or one that goes swimming regularly, you might want to wash more often. Dog’s don’t need to be bathed weekly, unless they have a skin condition that requires medicated shampoo.

10.01.2022 Clinical signs of a snake bite can vary and can be easily mistaken for other illnesses. The symptoms seen depend on the type of snake, the dose of venom received, time since the bite and the rate of venom absorption. The early clinical signs can include: Vomiting shortly after being bitten (This can be followed by a period of looking well in themselves before deteriorating further) Sudden collapse Lethargy/flat Drooling... Trembling Rapid and shallow breathing Stiff or staggering gate Dilated pupils Pale gums If you have any concerns seek urgent veterinary attention! See more

09.01.2022 Did you know that around a third of all pet cats and dogs are overweight? The easiest way to help your pet lose weight is to switch their food to a specially formulated low energy or weight loss diet. These diets are still complete and balanced, though they contain less energy to help pets gradually lose weight. While trying to lose weight, it’s important that pets don’t get any extra food or treats. If you’re worried about your pet’s weight, make an appointment with us today.

09.01.2022 Introducing our newest receptionist.. Morris!

06.01.2022 Keep a close eye on your pooch this Easter!

05.01.2022 Did you know that flat-faced dog breeds such as pugs and bulldogs are at increased risk of overheating because they can’t cool down as quickly as other breeds? This is due to their short muzzles and compact features. You can reduce their risk of overheating by avoiding exercise during warm weather, keeping your pet lean, providing them with a cool, well-ventilated area, and getting an airway assessment and physical exam done regularly by our vets. If you are worried your dog may be overheating, call us immediately.

05.01.2022 During spring allergies can be fierce, not just in people but in our pets too! Be sure to consult with a vet for recommendations if your pet is showing any of these signs or symptoms!

04.01.2022 Christmas can be a noisy time for everyone. Cats are especially sensitive to new guests and loud sounds, so a quiet room or a safe place to hide can help put them at ease

04.01.2022 Be aware of pet hazards this Easter!

04.01.2022 This time of year is notoriously busy for vaccinations and with the borders opening up, we have been inundated with vaccine bookings. Due to this we ask for your patience as we try our very best to find an available time for you. At the moment, we cannot be as immediately accommodating as we would like and therefore we kindly ask that you please try to book vaccination appointments 1-2 weeks in advance.

02.01.2022 Any dog can get an ear infection, however particularly long-eared breeds like spaniels or retrievers and hairy-eared dogs like terriers & poodles are more susceptible. Look out for head shaking, pawing at their ear, redness and odours as these are signs of a problem!
