✨ STAFF INTRODUCTIONS ✨

It's been almost a year since our last staff introduction, so we thought it was time to bring them back! And who better to kick things off than one of our absolute favourites…

🐾 Meet Dr Lara! 🐾

Dr Lara is rarely spotted standing still. She's usually dashing between consults with a coffee in hand (or planning the next one!), keeping the team entertained with her stories, happily accepting a generous amount of drool from her ever-loyal companion, Eddy (pictured), and welcoming hugs from anyone who is willing to give them 😻

Lara brings so much warmth, humour, and compassion to our team, and we're incredibly lucky to have her. Her genuine care for both pets and their people makes every visit a little brighter 🩷

Be sure to say hello and have a chat with Dr Lara at your pet's next appointment—we know she'll be delighted to meet you!

Slowing down isn’t always old age.
The slower walk to the door. The hesitation before they jump into the car. The extra BIIIIG stretch in the morning. It’s easy to chalk it up to getting older - but winter often brings out discomfort that’s been building quietly.
The good news? Much of it is treatable.
Book today and save $20 on a Winter Health Check for any and all pets over 7 years of age.

🦆 H5 High Pathogenicity Avian Influenza (H5 Bird Flu): What Australians Need to Know

Australia has confirmed detections of H5 high pathogenicity avian influenza (H5 bird flu) in migratory wild seabirds. At this stage:

✅ The risk to the general public remains low.
✅ There is no evidence of spread to commercial poultry or widespread outbreaks in native wildlife.
✅ Chicken meat and eggs remain safe to eat when handled and cooked following normal food safety practices.

If you find a sick or dead bird:
🚫 Do not touch it.
📍 Keep children and pets away from the area.
📞 Report multiple sick or dead birds, or animals showing signs of illness, to the Emergency Animal Disease Hotline: 1800 675 888.

🐦 If your pet bird is unwell, or you find an injured/sick wild bird:
Please do not bring the bird directly into the veterinary clinic. Instead, remain outside or in your vehicle and call reception on 6254 2122 when you arrive. Our team will provide instructions and arrange the safest way to assess your bird while helping protect other patients, clients and staff.

If you keep backyard poultry:
• Prevent contact between your birds and wild birds.
• Keep feed and water protected from wild birds.
• Monitor your flock closely and report any unusual illness or sudden deaths promptly.

Thank you for helping protect Australia's wildlife, poultry industry, pets and our community by following these simple biosecurity measures.

🐶✨ Earlier this year, we had a very special visit at the clinic—and we still can’t get over how adorable these little angel babies were! We just had to share some photos from this litter of French Bulldog puppies during their 6-week check-up and 8-week vaccination visit.

From the moment they arrived, it was a flurry of tiny paws, wagging tails, and curious sniffs exploring everything (including our stethoscopes and shoelaces 😄). Each puppy had their health check, and they all did wonderfully for their very important first step in protection.

Vaccinations are a key part of keeping puppies safe as they grow. They help protect against serious diseases and give these little ones the best possible start in life. We also checked their weight, overall health, and answered plenty of questions from their humans about feeding, training, and those inevitable zoomies.

Seeing a whole litter together is always a reminder of just how quickly they grow—blink and they’re already bigger, bolder, and even more mischievous!

We’re so happy to be part of their journey from tiny pups to confident, healthy dogs 💛🐾

If you’ve welcomed a new puppy (or a whole crew!), get in touch to book their vaccination schedule and health checks.
