22.01.2022 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.

22.01.2022 Have you ever bought an expensive bed or toy for your pet, only for them to ignore it and play in an empty cardboard box instead? One of the benefits of having pets is that it doesn’t have to cost much to keep them amused. When you unwrap your Christmas presents this year, consider letting your pets play around in the discarded wrapping paper and boxes before tidying up. They will love it and it costs nothing. Just make sure you keep an eye on them so they don’t get into trouble.

22.01.2022 Summer has well and truly arrived. There are a few steps we can take to make our pets more comfortable on warm, summer nights. Remember to never put coats or jackets on your pet on hot nights and to switch their bedding to something comfortable but cooler (e.g. raised bedding that allows airflow). If your pet gets hot, you may even notice them seeking out cool tiles - you can also set up a small fan near their bedding to help them cool down.

21.01.2022 Can you believe Christmas is right around the corner? While this year has been more unusual than most, one thing Australians can look forward to is Christmas with family and friends. Ensure your pets have a safe Christmas by keeping an eye out for common hazards, such as Christmas trees, decorations, gift ribbons and BBQ skewers. If you think your pet has ingested something it shouldn’t have, contact us immediately.

20.01.2022 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.

17.01.2022 We love seeing ferrets at Stawell Veterinary Clinic. This is Caleb and his lovely ferret Neytiri. Caleb noticed that Neytiri had lost some weight and he could feel a lump in her belly. An ultrasound exam suggested that the lump may be her ovary. ... On Thursday Neytiri who weighed only 500gm went to surgery. We performed a spey to remove both her ovaries and her uterus. The photo shows a normal ovary next to her cancerous ovary. It was great to see Neytiri going home later that day. Ovarian cancer is quite common in ferrets. Also ferrets need to be mated when they come in season otherwise they produce too much oestrogen and can die of anaemia (their bone marrow stops producing red blood cells). Therefore, we always advise getting your ferret speyed. We can also castrate your ferret. A desexed ferret produces far less smells and is a nicer pet accordingly.

16.01.2022 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 bring them straight down.

14.01.2022 Are you fe-line like you need a holiday? If you're planning a getaway this summer, it’s important to check your cat has everything they need before boarding. Make sure your cat’s parasite control and vaccinations are up-to-date. All catteries require proof of current F3 vaccination before accepting your cat. If you’re unsure whether your cat is fully vaccinated, or you know they’re overdue, give us a call today.

13.01.2022 Heat stress is a risk to all pets, but particularly dogs and those kept in cages, such as rabbits and birds. All pets must have access to shade in a well-ventilated area, as well as constant access to cool, fresh water. Dogs should only be exercised in the early morning or evening. If your pets show signs of heat stress, such as open-mouth panting, collapse, or excessive salivating (dogs), contact us immediately. Let’s stay safe this summer.

11.01.2022 While some people have already started their Christmas pudding preparation, many of us have barely thought about what food we will serve over the festive season. When it comes to festive food for our pets, some are safer than others. Avoid feeding your pet anything containing onions, raisins, sultanas, chocolate or cooked bones. Non-fatty meat in small quantities and cooked vegetables, like pumpkin and potatoes, are fine to feed your dog for Christmas festivities.
