Moruya Animal Hospital is a new purpose built veterinary hospital designed, equipped and staffed to provide the highest quality service to clients and a corresponding level of care to patients. The hospital was founded by local veterinarian Dr Kerry Jackson in February 2014. Kerry, has been a qualified veterinarian since 1988 and has spent most of her career working in a range of animal hospitals

in Australia and overseas. Kerry gained her initial post-graduation veterinary experience at Batemans Bay, Moruya, and Braidwood and returned to Moruya to live and work in 2002. Since that time Kerry has built a reputation for competence and integrity amongst clients and recognition of genuine compassion for her patients. In late 2013, Kerry decided that it was time to pursue her dream of opening her own practice with the primary aim of meeting the needs of her many existing clients whilst offering a service to further her special interest in small animal medicine and surgery. Moruya Animal Hospital opened in February 2014 and is the culmination of that dream. Whilst a relatively small practice (and deliberately so), it is fully equipped and designed with your pet’s wellbeing in mind. Moruya Animal Hospital is well stocked to provide complete care for small animals. We stock an extensive range of veterinary health care products, including the highly recommended Royal Canin range of specialist foods for your best friend, be it cat or dog.

Warning to dog owners on the South Coast. More Leptospirosis cases confirmed in nearby areas. The disease is usually transmitted by contact with rat urine and contaminated water sources. It is a very serious disease with a high mortality rate. Humans can catch this disease. We recommend the new MSD Leptospirosis vaccine that covers both the major serovars.

Four dogs have died from canine leptospirosis, with two confirmed in the Southern Highlands and Shoalhaven.

The serious bacterial disease is spread by rats and contaminated water and can cause liver and kidney failure.

Some of the symptoms include vomiting or diarrhea and lethargy.

Dog owners in the Southern Highlands and South coast are being urged to have their pets vaccinated and to avoid letting them drink or swim in stagnant water.

Ticks are still around. This tick was responsible for the death of a beautiful young dog on Saturday. Not the owners fault, they had only had the dog a short time and was assured that he had tick treatment on board. He didn't, and we found this tick on his ribcage. Despite intensive treatment he still died. Very distressing for everyone involved. Please make sure your pets tick prevention is up to date. There is no tick season anymore - they are found all year round.

The Animal Hospital will be closed this Saturday the 10th of May. I have family commitments interstate and have been unable to secure a vet to work in my place. I am available on the phone to provide advice on 0498 667 838.

If anyone knows a vet who would like to work with us please ask them to get in touch. We would love to hear from them.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy weekend.

Kind Regards,
Kerry Jackson

Someone worming on South Broulee Beach this afternoon left their bait stocking on the beach!!! Sadly it was eaten by a dog who is now in our hospital. Please take care and take your bait home with you. Leaving it behind can really cause some serious problems for unsuspecting pets.
Our patient is recovering but has had a really tough day.
