🐾 💉Important Leptospirosis Vaccine Update💉🐾

⚠️ Vets across Australia are currently experiencing a manufacturer shortage of the canine leptospirosis vaccine.

🐶 If your dog is due for their annual leptospirosis vaccine booster at the moment, vaccination can be safely delayed until new stock arrives, which we are hoping will be by the end of June!

📲 We will contact affected clients via SMS as soon as the vaccine is back in stock and appointments can be booked again.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. If you have any questions or concerns about your pet’s vaccination schedule, please contact our team via our website www.concordvets.com.au or via email [email protected]

We have a rule at CVH: if it has p**p on it, it goes into the bin! We are of course referring to towels, not patients!

This rule has served us well over the years, but it does mean that from time that we get quite low in towels, which we use for all sorts of things like:

- Bedding for hospitalised patients
- Underneath surgical patients, between them and the heated table
- Over, on top, and around patients who are under general anaesthesia to keep up their core body temperature
- Under mouths during dentistry to wick water away from the patient so they don't get cold
- In the cattery for bedding and warmth for our hotel guests!
- After bathing patients in the unfortunate cases when *they* get p**p on them
- Sometimes they act as good stretchers too!

Towels, blankets, tea towels are all really useful. We often get asked about sheets, pillow slips, doona and doona covers; these aren't particularly useful for us - but thank you anyway.

If you have any spare or old towels hanging around, (we even take K-Mart versions over Sheridan!) - we would really appreciate the donation. You can pop down to the clinic anytime 8am - 5pm, or if you're unable to bring them in the front door - no problem! You can leave them by the back door in the carpark, and just give us a courtesy call to let us know they are there - and we will bring them in. We can also come out and do a car boot service - no problem at all!

Thank you very much in advance,

The Concord Veterinary Hospital Team

It's International Guide Dog Day today! 🐾

We’re especially proud to give a shoutout to one of our own patients — Jason, an incredibly cute guide dog puppy who you might have spotted on the banners in Martin Place!

Jason is more than just a sweet face — he’s on an important journey to become a future guide dog, helping someone live with greater independence and confidence. Watching puppies like Jason grow, learn, and train for such a meaningful role is something truly special.

We feel lucky to be part of his journey and to support all the amazing guide dogs (and their dedicated trainers and carers) who make such a difference every day!💛

🌟 Monday 26th January Public Holiday 🌟

Fun fact(ish?): did you know – in parts of Australia there have been reports that some time ago now, indigenous people used to comment on and judge the temperature at night by the number of dogs required to sleep next to you to keep you warm! The exact origins are unclear (some note Inuit history, some note First Nations people in Australia), “a three-dog night” meant a person would need three dogs to sleep alongside of to keep you warm through the night.

This makes us think about all the city dogs, on beds, in bedrooms, on couches… before the famous Piper (seen here, full access to the couch with young Christian), Dr David had a *one dog night* for around 17 years with Charli, regardless of the ambient temperature. City dogs! They have it pretty tough, don’t they…?

Wishing you all, whatever the day means to you, a happy, quiet, relaxing, and safe public holiday.

For veterinary emergencies during this time please contact SASH VetICU on 9889 0289.
