🐴 May Health Check Month

With the recent rain and fresh green pick coming through 🌾, we’re already seeing an increase in sand colic.

As the weather cools, now is the time to make sure your horse’s teeth and stomach are in check—so they can properly chew, digest, and get the most out of their feed.

📸 Here’s a recent health package in action with Dr Alice—completing a dental and identifying sand accumulation on radiographs. This mare has now been treated for her sand accumulation and is feeling great, ready for the year ahead.

Our Annual Health Package makes it easy to stay on top of everything:
✔️ Dental examination & treatment
✔️ Sand radiographs
✔️ 2-in-1 vaccination
✔️ Two faecal egg counts

Don’t wait until there’s a problem—book in now and stay ahead of the season.

📞 Call 9524 1466 to secure your spot!

A (very) belated social media introduction to Will!

William Height BSc DVM graduated from the University of Melbourne in 2023 before completing an internship at Avenel Equine Hospital in central Victoria, where he gained valuable experience in both surgery and medicine. During his internship, he was recognised at a national equine veterinary conference for his research on septic joints in foals – an incredible achievement early in his career.

Will joined Baldivis Veterinary Hospital in February 2025, so many of you will already know him well! He is currently completing a Certificate of Advanced Veterinary Practice (Equine Surgery & Orthopaedics) through the University of Liverpool, continuing to build on his strong interest in surgery and lameness.

We’re very lucky to have Will on the team and thought it was about time we gave him a proper introduction!

👋 Hello & goodbye to Angus Muir 👋

As our last breeding season wrapped up, it also marked the end of Angus’s time with the Baldivis team. Angus joined us for the season and quickly became a valued part of the crew. Many of you may have met him along the way, and both clients and staff appreciated his positive attitude, hard work, and readiness to jump in wherever needed.

In a relatively short time, Angus made a big contribution to the team, and we’ve truly enjoyed having him with us. While we’re sad to see him go, we’re excited for his next chapter as he heads off to England with his partner ✈️🇬🇧

This is very much a see you later, not goodbye — and we hope to welcome him back to Baldivis again in the future.

Thanks for being such a great part of the team, Angus, and for all your work this breeding season! 🐎💙

🎄 Christmas Countdown – Christmas is HERE! 🎄
Cheeky has officially wrapped up a very mischievous December and couldn’t resist one last photo with the incredible BVH team before heading back to the North Pole.

From all of us at Baldivis Vet Hospital, thank you for being part of our year — for trusting us with your horses, sharing the highs and the tough moments, and supporting our team every step of the way.

A very special shout-out to our Christmas on-call crew who are keeping an eye on things while the rest of us enjoy the festivities — we’re so grateful for you 💛

Wishing our clients, friends and four-legged patients a very Merry Christmas filled with warmth, laughter and just a little bit of Cheeky chaos ✨🐴🎅

🎄 Christmas Countdown – 1 day to Go! 🎄

Cheeky has officially clocked off from Baldivis Vet Hospital duties and clocked on for Santa 🎅✨

Today, he’s busy delivering a little last-minute Christmas cheer to the incredible team working over the festive period — because even Santa knows our vets, nurses and support crew deserve something special this time of year.

Thank you to our on-call team for being there for horses (and their people) when it matters most. 💛🐴

Fully gowned. Perfect aseptic technique.
Cheeky is in surgery placing an arterial line to monitor blood pressure…
and we are becoming increasingly concerned about where he learned this 🧑‍⚕️👀🎄

🎄 3 days till Christmas! 🎄
No time for easing back in — Cheeky’s returned from his weekend off and gone straight to work, lending a (tiny) helping hand with the placement of a foal’s feeding tube. Elves don’t do light duties this close to Christmas 🎅✨

19/12/2025

🎄 Christmas Countdown – 6 days to go! 🎄
Cheeky has stepped into the treatment room today, lending a hand with a shockwave session. Precision, focus… and just a little elf supervision to keep standards high. 😉
