We have no KPIs. If you advocate for the pet we get the best outcomes for our patients and we still make enough money to pay the bills and have happy staff. We are 100% privately owned by myself and have no corporate aspirations in the future. You could be happily involved in a busy 2 vet practice on Brisbane's southside in a lovely acreage area, great pet parents.

24.01.2022 This is me preparing a few days worth of food for my Doggos. Raw meat on its own (or cooked) meat is a terrible diet for dogs. I use Vets All Natural Complete Mix with a meat base to provide a balanced diet. It still makes a minimally processed diet very low in carbohydrates. It is 85% meat and 15% Complete Mix. I also feed PROUDI and Big Dog Pet Foods These are both awesome fully balanced diets, as easy as defrosting and feed. I also feed appropriate raw bones and have a ba...g of Ziwi Australia in the cupboard if I'm not organised. I recommend alternating between different base diets over time or during the week. It makes sense to vary diet nutritional sources to avoid any deficiencies, excesses or "anti-nutritive properties" of any one diet. There have been numerous examples in the pet food industry overtime where a particular diet feed in exclusion of other foods has harmed or causes fatalities in pets. Recent (2018)problems with Advance Dermacare food, when fed exclusively to dogs with skin troubles caused 17 deaths and 70 dogs to be seriously harmed for the rest or their lives. The cause has not been found.The cause has not been found. The American FDA is still investigating the potentially pet food-induced heart failure disease Canine Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) in dogs. These dogs were eating certain pet foods, many labeled as "grain-free," which contained a high proportion of peas, lentils, other legume seeds (pulses), and/or potatoes in various forms (whole, flour, protein, etc.) as main ingredients (listed within the first 10 ingredients in the ingredient list. More than 500 cases of heart failure in 2018 have been linked to these diets and it could be the tip of the iceberg. Or not. Either way, feeding the same food or multiple foods of a similar origin for extended periods seems like a bad idea unless it cannot be avoided.

23.01.2022 Little Jafa visited today for the second of 4 weekly arthritis injections. It is not only cats and dogs that can get arthritis and can benefit from our joint treatment programs.

22.01.2022 Thankfully this old girl has landed on her feet. We could help this old girl out for a week for a number of reasons. She was no trouble- didn’t bark, didn’t pee on everything, we had the cage space at the time and we liked her. Unfortunately we cannot and do not hold all strays for 7 days and then find rescues for them. We scan every stray for a microchip. Often but not always hold overnight before calling the pound. Microchipped pets are 99.99% returned to their owners IF ...the microchip details are up to date. Entire males present particular difficulties as apart from peeing on everything and in general barking more, depending on breed usually means multiple people try to claim the pet without photos or evidence of ownership and often become abusive to our staff when the pet is not released to them. Entire males are more likely to go straight to the pound if not microchipped for this reason. If you do not agree with this policy then I suggest you and all your friends microchip your pets AND keep your dogs well confined at home so they are not presented as strays to anyone. Dr Glenn

22.01.2022 National Desexing month. Lots of dogs desexed at very discounted rates. Is now the best time to desex your baby because it is cheaper? What is the best age to desex your dog? Should you be desexing them at all? Complicated question with a very long answer. Short answer is it is complicated. My long answer is this video. It goes for 19 minutes. But its pretty comprehensive. Summary of my rules:- If you cannot stop your dog from breeding then desex at six months of age. ... If you have a female dog and dont want them to come into season for you to manage then desex at six months of age. If you have a medium to large breed dog there may be some benefit from delaying the desexing until after 12 months of age. This is a complicated combination of factors which I explained in the video. If you have a male dog that behaves himself as an entire male and you wish to keep him entire thats fine. Any entire males or females older than 5 years need at least every six months a visit to the vet for a thorough examination to check for reproductive abnormalities including mammary cancer and prostate enlargement. ALL desexings reguardless of how discounted the service is should have effective opiate pain relief working pre, during and post surgery. ALL desexings should get oral pain relief post surgery for at least a few days. Just because they seem "happy" doesnt mean they are not in pain and pain as a substitue for post surgical confinement to keep them quite does not cut it. ALL desexings with sutures within the skin or with visible sutures must be sent home with a cone of shame. The alternative is not worth it. I have done many after-hours surgeries over the years anaesthetising and resuturing desexing wounds from pets desexed at other practices that did not go home with an E-collar. My first ever after hours call as a vet was a sweet little kelpie girl who chewed thru her sutures ( and was not adequately confined or supervised post-surgery and she chewed off some of her intestines that herniated out the resulting wound. we battled to save her for 2 days but lost. I will alway remember her. Dr Glenn.

22.01.2022 Paralysis Tick cases are escalating. Paralysis ticks are NOT a hot weather problem. Peak tick season in our area is late August -September and declining in December. We have had 3 cases of Paralysis Tick in the last week at the Clinic. Hit us up in comments if you are lost on the choices for Tick prevention for your cat or dog.

21.01.2022 A small selection of the awesomeness that was Santa Paws 2020. Massive thank you to Rachael McCallum for her photographic skills and for donating her time for the RSPCA fundraiser. On top of the $260 donated by clients for the Photos we have topped up the funds to Donate $750 to the RSPCA QLD All photos have been emailed the the pet parents so if your haven't received your pics please check your spam folder too.

21.01.2022 With storm season comes cane toad season. Dr Devon with his own doggoMeredith describes what to do if your pet licks or eats a cane toad.

21.01.2022 When desexing we use absorbable sutures in multiple layers internally. Nearly all desexing wounds dont need external sutures.

20.01.2022 Permaculture Project. Rocket Stove Wood Store. Repurpose something for new useful purpose. Added bonus of using the top of tank removed for improved chimney for Biochar Tort Kiln (explanation of that tomorrow). Total cost $50 for the tank and $2 for a grinder disk.

20.01.2022 Please. No cooked bones, to any dog, ever. Including HAM BONES. Cooking, including smoking, of bones changes the protein matrix structure of the bone making it indigestible. The way it goes in the mouth is the way it tries to come out the other end. Larger fragments of cooked bones are often stuck in the stomach or small intestine and cause perforations and death if not operated on by your vet. Some dogs crunch up the relatively soft ham bone and it sets like concrete full... of razor blades in the colon. This makes it difficult and painful to pass. The longer it is there the more trouble it causes. I will anaesthetise several pets over the next couple weeks having eaten ham bones, unfortunately. We will use a stainless steel water pick to slowly and carefully break down the Impacted physical mass into a slurry that is able to be flushed out of there . Not a pretty way to spend the Christmas festive season. Dr Glenn. Veterinarian at vet-n-pet DIRECT and The Bloomin Vet See more

15.01.2022 Dr Devon shows a great technique to clean your dogs ears. If your dog has pain, a head tilt, is shaking their head or the ear canal is visible red or wet with discharge, a vet visit is definitely warranted. That is before putting anything in their ear, as any liquids into an ear with a damaged eardrum could be harmful.

10.01.2022 A quick install video on our 14th and 15th IBC Wicking Garden Beds. Total cost $73 per bed. The IBC sources on market place, and must be of food grade history for my garden. The plumbing fittings are from Bunnings or Greenbank hardware. The Ag-drain is to allow a single point to refill the lower section of the bed with water once it dries down. The lower section will become more porous to hold more water as the wood decays. The Biochar I make myself from dropped branches etc.... These beds are amazingly productive and watersaving for our dry climate. We are currently self sufficient in greens, lettuce, 4 difference spinaches, cherry tomatoes, snow peas and shoots and spring onions, walking onions, nasturtium, parsley, coriander and Kale. Working on increasing production of strawberrys, leeks, beetroot leaves, Broccoli, cabbage, more tomatoes, onion, pawpaw in these bags. The garden beds are right at the bottom of our front steps and the electric fence is to keep thieving dalmatians at bay. Current plan is for another 10 beds in the next month for spring plantings. So far ( touch wood) diverse plantings, predictor insects and Double Barr Finches have controlled pests without any sprays. Dr Glenn.

10.01.2022 Chickens arent just great pets and egg layers. They also can be a big help to add fertility to your vegetable gardening efforts.

09.01.2022 Memories of the 2013 flood popped up in Dr Glenn’s feed today. Floods tend to effect everyone I matter who you are, just depends if your place is above water level. Photo while wading across the Logan River Bridge to home this morning with generator fuel past about 15 snakes. The closeup is a red belly and a frog enjoying the sun but covered in ants and insects. The snakes were just happy to be out of the roaring river behind. I made the mistake of walking down the edge ...of the guardrail the afternoon before until i met a whip snake face to face. Next morning I made sure I walked down the middle and they were all over the guardrails and on the top of the wash. Mostly red bellys to about 6 feet long all enjoying the morning sun after a long couple of days. Glad they all stayed put as I waded past I didn’t get a lot of photos because the water was knee deep and I was making sure the sticks bumping into my legs were stick. Jeans instead of shorts would have been smarter At home we had 5 days without power and walked in enough petrol to keep the freezers and essentials running. Unfortunately I couldn’t get to the clinic for 24 hrs and lost $15000 worth of drugs and vaccines which insurance didn’t cover

09.01.2022 10 days post surgery check for Smokey today after removing her massive 3.65kg splenic tumour. She is back to her normal casual and slightly naughty 13yr old self. Hopefully a few more happy years out of the old girl yet. This was her 10 days ago https://www.facebook.com/189151341100451/posts/3703810689634481/

09.01.2022 Entire male cat found deceased on Thompson Road yesterday and brought in by the lovely lady who found him. No microchip. Could be a feral cat but many not be . We will hold him for 2 weeks and if an owner doesnt come forward he will be cremated by Pets Eternal Greenbank and Burleigh and ashes scattered in their pet cemetery. Ph 32976666 if you think you know who he is or message here.

08.01.2022 Arthritis, lameness and joint pain gets worse as winter sets in. But you and your vet can make a huge difference to the quality and quantity of your personality life. Dr Glenn outlines lots of options for your dogs joint health. And of course keeping or getting your pets weight under control is massive.

07.01.2022 Many older pets (and a few younger ones) are feeling the cooler weather in their bones. Slow to get out of bed or get up to their feet. Limping for a few steps or a minute or two and then back to normal once they warmup? These are really common symptoms of arthritis. And there is lot you can do and your vet can help you with to keep your pet as comfortable as possible for as long as possible.

07.01.2022 Today some lovely people brought in a deceased adult entire male black medium/long hair cat hit by a car on Middle Rd, Boronia Heights. No microchip. Quite possibly a feral cat but in case someone is missing this poor character we will hold him for 2 weeks before having him cremated at Pets Eternal, Greenbank. His ashes will be scattered in their pet cemetery.

07.01.2022 Dr Glenn moving the to a new paddock before work.

07.01.2022 All our desexings and any surgeries who need them go home with a complementary come of shame. No all are as happy to pose in them as Rambo and Rocky Any pet parent who has a surgery booked can come and get their pets cone before the surgery to give their baby time to get used to the idea before surgery.

06.01.2022 World Toilet Day. The Formidable Vegetables have a great water-saving idea for the dunny. And great compost for the end of 2021. And let's face it, this year has been pretty anyway. Dr. Glenn's dunny doesn't flush

06.01.2022 Good rainfall finally means grass and plants are growing. This also means more things for dogs to get itchy skin and ears from. Also increased biting insect problems. Small chance of increased activity of paralysis tick as well although it is getting very late in the season so time will tell on that front. Things to do. 1. Check your dogs ears for redness or inflammation. 2. Check feet and under arms/groin for redness. 3. If any history of ear infection consider effective ...weekly ear cleaning an ear cleaner. 4. Consider an omega 3 oil supplement in diet if any inflammatory ear or skin issues previously. 5. Consider using repellants for outdoor pets if mosquito/ midge numbers increase. 6. Protect your pet from ticks. 7. Consult your vet if you find any skin conditions. Early effective treatment can save your pet’s pain and your money because early intervention is easier than treating a chronic or established infection secondary to allergic dermatitis. See more

06.01.2022 Yesterday thousands of tons of Australias precious topsoil was exported out to sea. Plato knew 2500years ago that the current agricultural pressures and practices were destroying the fragile landscape. Industrial agriculture has learnt little in the time since other than being able to use a bigger tractor, more powerful herbicide/ fungicide/ insecticide to inflict our will on the planet. Government intervention is not the answer. Individual people thru their actions and purchasing decisions have the power to change the world. Regenerative agriculture. Permaculture principles. Diversity in agriculture and your garden can make a difference. Dr Glenn.

06.01.2022 Ok this is cute and awesome.

05.01.2022 How did everyone go for rain? 15mm here (Dr Glenns) behind Cedar Grove. The new 650metre long ditch and berm on contour catching some water and infiltrating slowly on compacted horse paddocks. Fencing in progress to exclude horses. 10 metre strip below berm for mixed tree plantings. Earthworks scatter mulched and cover cropped be with field pea, oats, vetch, turnip, and plantain which has a nice green tinge and the Roos love it . Lots of trees to plant come spring(hundreds). # permaculture SSavour Soil Permaculture

05.01.2022 A little rain unfortunately means seasonally itchy dogs start scratching. Itchy ears, feet, bellies or armpits. The sooner you can start a home itchy dog proticol the better.

03.01.2022 RIP stray cat Found Near Teviot Road Ginger and White Male Entire No microchip . We will hold prior to cremation if no owner comes forward.

03.01.2022 I hadnt caught up with this amazing dog for a few years until Saturday morning. This is Stevie a 9 yr old Malamute X. Stevie is one of the happiest dogs Ive had the pleasure of knowing. I vaccinated her as a 10 week old puppy. Always so happy to be at the clinic, to be poked and prodded and be treated. She has had lots of poking and prodding. She has no eyes now. We removed one is 2015 and the other in 2016. She had developed glaucoma that despite our and specialist treat...ment became blind. She experienced very painful useless eyes until we removed her pain and she hasnt looked back. She navigates around the yard and house at home from memory and feel and hearing. She loves going on long walks taking in the sounds and smells and is so happy. Note that it was a big decision to remove the first and second eye but as they were painful and not functional that helped. And the fact she had been becoming blind and was handling it very well. Many but not all patients who become profoundly blind cope this well and each case must be considered on the own merit. Dr Glenn. See more

03.01.2022 Big day for Smokey Smokey is a 12 year old Groodle. She had been feeling a bit off for a few days and didnt eat dinner Friday night. Saturday she came to the clinic and she was feeling a bit flat. She was a bit pale in the gums, breathing a little more effort than expected, increased temperature and l felt large lump in the middle to front of her belly. In-house bloodwork highlighted a mild but not serious anaemia but normal liver and kidney function, making a liver or k...idney cancer less likely. Xrays of the abdomen and chest highlighted a huge central abdominal mass but not signs of any cancer in the lungs. We ultrasounded the abdomen and could see a normal liver and some normal spleen tissue but a very large mass of abnormal tissue which looks attached to the spleen. 2 choices were discussed. Major surgery to attempt removing the mass or home for a day or 2 to say Goodbye . We discussed that these masses can be benign and it we were lucky the a mass had not leaked any cancer cells out the surgery could cure her of at least buy a few to several happy months for Smokey. Her owners elected for surgery and today I removed her spleen with a single, intact 3.75kg tumour. There was no sign of spread to local tissues and I could remove it all at once without damaging the tumour and spilling any seed. She is on some fentanyl accords the skin pain relief and some iv fluids but she was up and around and checking her peemails outside 4 hrs post surgery. she will be home tomorrow night. There is a good chance the surgery will be curative and she will not have any long term ill effects. She is a great patientDr Glenn.

02.01.2022 It’s a dogs breakfast at Dr Glenn’s. BigDog BARF roll only $12 for 2 kg. 3 meals for 2 Dalmatians and a Scruffy Jack Russel. Little plastic waste too. Meat based, no grain or fillers. Just nutritious raw ingredients.

02.01.2022 Have a great Australia Day. Remember at school learning with pride at school that Australian Aboriginies were the worlds first farmers? About how Australia’s First Nation people planted and farmed 1000’s of hectares of grain and root crops? How they harvested and stored tons of grain in dedicated storage facilities? How they built permanent family houses and meeting buildings for up to 40 people out of stone and large wooden beams? No. You don’t remember because acknowledg...ing these facts would have made European Settlement against the laws of the time. Much easier to displace inhabitants by reporting that they were hunter gathering savages. Great Australia Day Reading include The Greatest Estate on Earth. How Aboriginies Made Australia by Bill Gammage, and Dark Emu by Bruce Pascoe. This information on early Australian land management and farming over the last 60,000 years was an eye opener. Dr Glenn.

02.01.2022 Simba had a checkup after a urinary tract infection trouble which has resolved with appropriate treatment. If a cat suddenly stops using the litter tray and starts peeing somewhere they shouldnt, they are usually NOT doing it to piss you off. More likely because it hurts to wee. Some simple urine tests and treatment or diet change has them back to the litter tray in no time. Pls get your cat and their wee tested if they change their toilet habits. Especially male cats who can develop life threatening obstructions within hours. Gratuitous shelfie with Simba because who doesnt love a shelfie. Dr Glenn.

02.01.2022 **Unfortunately despite Dr Katies best efforts this little one has passed away. We will hold her for 2 weeks in case her owner comes forward before cremation Found Stray Black female kitten (maybe about 6 months estimated by Dr Katie) brought in by a client with severe tick paralysis.

01.01.2022 Going away at Christmas or New Years? You should have booked the kennel or sitter by now! Have you checked if your pets vaccinations are up to date? Can you locate their vaccination certificates? If not now is the time to contact your vet to get a copy of their certificate , or see if they are up to date. If your pet has not been to the vet since last Christmas then they won’t be up to date. Please book in advance of time as last minute vacc requests are common at Christmas and can be hard to fit in on short notice.
