Border Veterinary Surgery

Professional, caring vets. Practicing what's possible At Border Vets we all love animals! We are always looking to improve everything we do.

This passion is what drives us to deliver high quality healthcare; we love to do everything we can for the animal's benefit. Our friendly staff regularly go that extra mile to ensure both clients and animals are well looked after. Our vets and nurses are continually updating their knowledge and skills by attending conferences and participating in continuing education. This extends to our equipment

, which is at a very good level due to this philosophy. We have new ultrasound equipment, extensive in-house blood testing and the capacity to perform both orthopaedic surgery and complex soft tissue surgeries. Our mobile horse trailer greatly improves the safety of both horses and people during procedures such as dental examination and treatment, standing surgery and re**al exams. Should your animal require specialist care we happily refer to several specialists we know and trust.

🐭🧀 Rat Bait Warning🧀🐭

With an increase in rodent activity over the past few months, the team at Border Vets has seen a rise in cases of rat bait toxicity.

While some products may be marketed as “pet-safe,” it’s important to understand that no rat bait is truly safe for pets. Even small amounts can cause life-threatening illness.

If you suspect your pet may have ingested rat bait — or come into contact with a poisoned rodent — seek veterinary attention immediately. Early intervention is critical for the best outcome.

📞 For advice or emergencies, please contact us on (07) 4671 3688

🐾 Guilty & Greedy Gaston strikes! 🐾
Gaston the cheeky dachshund couldn’t resist the Easter stash and gobbled up an entire bag of chocolate eggs!🍫

This is your friendly reminder to keep those Easter treats well out of paw’s reach!
While the choccy eggs, hot cross buns, and other festive goodies are delicious for us, they can be dangerous for our furry friends – with ingredients like chocolate, raisins, and xylitol posing serious health risks.
If your pet does sneak a naughty nibble, give us a bell on (07) 4671 3688.

Whether it’s in the clinic, out in the field, or at the pub, be sure to say hello to Dr. Louis! He’s looking forward to meeting all our wonderful clients (and their animals) and being part of the local community.

🚨 Blue-Green Algae Alert! 🚨
Our Macintyre River has had a recent blue-green algal bloom, posing a serious risk to pets. Dogs swimming in or drinking contaminated water may experience vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, or, in severe cases, collapse and death. 🐕

To protect your pets, avoid letting them near affected water. If you’re concerned about exposure, call us at (07) 4671 3688.

21/10/2024

🚨 PARVOVIRUS 🚨
The team at BVS have been seeing an increase in prevalence of Canine Parvovirus (commonly referred to "parvo") in the last few weeks. Parvovirus is a dangerous and highly contagious virus that primarily affects unvaccinated dogs, especially puppies under 6 months. It attacks rapidly dividing cells, primarily in the intestines, causing severe vomiting, bloody diarrhea, dehydration, and lethargy. The virus spreads easily through contaminated surfaces, faeces, and even people’s shoes or hands.

As with most things, prevention is better than cure! Give the team at BVS a call on (07) 4671 3688 to schedule your dogs next vaccination
