🎉🐾 WE ARE OPEN!

The day has finally arrived!

Today, we officially open the doors to our brand-new Bentons Road Veterinary Clinic! 💙🏥
After months of planning, building, packing and one very big moving weekend, we are SO excited to welcome you and your pets into our new home.

There may still be the occasional box to unpack and we may have to think twice about which cupboard something lives in 😆, but we're here, we're open and we're ready to get back to doing what we love — caring for your pets.

Our new purpose-built clinic gives us more space to care for more patients, dedicated areas for cats, a separate waiting space for nervous dogs, spacious treatment and hospital areas, dedicated surgical spaces and a whole lot more room for our team to do their best work.

Most importantly…

Same team. Same thoughtful, individual care. Same Bentons Road Vet — just next door!

Thank you to our wonderful clients and community for your patience, encouragement and support throughout the build and our move. We couldn't be more excited to begin this next chapter with you.

The doors are open. Come and see us! 🐶🐱💙

🎉🐾 WE’RE OPENING TOMORROW!

After months of planning, building, dust, decisions, deliveries and plenty of anticipation… tomorrow, Monday 31st August, we officially open the doors to our brand-new Bentons Road Veterinary Clinic! 💙

It's hard to believe the day is finally here.

Our new purpose-built clinic has been designed with our patients, clients and team at its heart. There's more space to care for more pets, a dedicated cat area, a separate waiting area for nervous dogs, and thoughtfully designed spaces that will help us continue providing the high standard of veterinary care we're so passionate about.

Tonight, there will undoubtedly be a few last-minute jobs, a lot of excitement and possibly some wondering where we put things… but tomorrow morning we'll be ready to welcome you. 😆

While the building may be new, the things that matter haven't changed.

Same familiar faces. Same thoughtful, individual care. Same Bentons Road Vet — just with a beautiful new home.

A huge thank you to our wonderful clients and community for your patience and support throughout the build and our move this weekend. We truly appreciate it.

We're incredibly excited for this next chapter.

See you TOMORROW… next door! 🏥🐶🐱💙

🚚🐾 TODAY’S THE DAY — IT’S MOVING DAY!

A little reminder that Bentons Road Veterinary Clinic is CLOSED today, Friday 28th August, and tomorrow, Saturday 29th August, while we make the big move into our brand-new clinic next door!

Today our team will be swapping consult rooms for moving boxes as we pack, carry, unpack, organise… and probably ask “Has anyone seen where this went?” more than once. 😂📦

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused by our closure and thank you for your patience while we get everything ready.

The exciting part?

🎉 We reopen on Monday 31st August in our NEW CLINIC!

After months of watching it all come together, we can hardly believe moving day is finally here.

Thank you for coming along on this journey with us. We can't wait to welcome you and your pets through the new doors on Monday. 💙

See you next door! 🏥🐶🐱

🎥🐾 COME AND TAKE A LOOK INSIDE- Staff Amenities in our new home!

We’ve shared the plans, the construction, the dust, the cabinetry and plenty of little sneak peeks along the way… and now we can finally show you around our brand-new Bentons Road Veterinary Clinic! 💙

This clinic has been designed from the ground up with our patients, clients and team in mind.
You'll see more space to care for our patients, dedicated areas for cats, a separate waiting space for nervous dogs, beautiful new consult rooms, spacious treatment and hospital areas, dedicated surgical spaces, staff amenities and so many thoughtful little details that we hope will make visits calmer and more comfortable.

But while we're incredibly proud of our beautiful new building, what we're most excited about is what it allows us to do inside it.

More room to provide thoughtful, individual veterinary care.
More space for our team to work together.
More opportunities to continue developing the services we can offer our patients.
And a clinic designed to support the kind of veterinary medicine we believe in.

So… come for a little walk through parrt of our new home! 🎥

We can't wait for you to see it in person — and we especially can't wait to see what our patients think of it. 🐶🐱

Same Bentons Road Vet. Same familiar faces. A very exciting new chapter.

🍪 A very delicious “Good On Ya!”

On Monday, we received a very special delivery from the lovely Fiona — a batch of homemade Good On Ya” cookies for our team.

For those who have been following along, our Good On Ya movement is all about recognising the little things people do that make a difference. Our team regularly leave Good On Ya notes for each other to say thank you, acknowledge a helping hand or simply let someone know they're appreciated.

So we absolutely loved that Fiona took the idea on board and created her own (much more delicious!) version for us. 💙

Needless to say, the cookies did not last long. Apparently veterinary teams are very efficient when properly motivated by baked goods. 😂

Thank you so much Fiona, Bronte and Barty for thinking of us. It was such a thoughtful gesture, very much appreciated by the whole team — and they were delicious!

A big GOOD ON YA right back at you! 🍪🐾💙

Meet Lulu – and a result that has exceeded our hopes!

Lulu is a gorgeous 9 year-old Cavoodle who has lived with advanced osteoarthritis for much of her life.

She has severe joint remodelling in both shoulders, particularly her left, causing significant pain and lameness. It was affecting not only her mobility, but her mood, willingness to walk and ability to play. Lulu had been assessed by surgeons, but unfortunately there wasn't an appropriate surgical option for her.

Recently, Dr Kelly injected Arthramid® into Lulu's shoulder joints under general anaesthesia.

Arthramid is a 2.5% injectable polyacrylamide hydrogel (iPAAG) used to manage osteoarthritis. Once injected into the joint, it integrates into the synovial membrane within approximately 14 days, helping support joint function and longer-term synovial health.

And Lulu's response has been wonderful. 💙

At her recent review, her owner was ecstatic. Lulu is now off her Meloxicam and Paracetamol most of the time, she's happier and playful, wants to romp around and is enjoying much longer walks. Previously, she would quickly want to lie down in her pram — now she wants to keep those little legs moving!

Perhaps most importantly, her family has noticed a dramatic improvement in her overall demeanour. She's simply a much happier Lulu.

Every arthritic patient is different, and Arthramid won't be appropriate for every dog. But Lulu is a wonderful example of why we keep looking for different ways to manage chronic pain and improve quality of life.

If your dog is living with osteoarthritis and you'd like to know whether an intra-articular treatment such as Arthramid may be suitable, please have a chat with us.

Is it ageing… or is something changing?

"They're just getting old."

It's something we hear often, but ageing itself isn't a disease.

Slowing down, struggling to get up, sleeping more, becoming reluctant to jump, or changes in appetite, toileting or behaviour can sometimes be signs that our senior pets need a little extra help.

The good news is there are so many ways we can support older pets.

Depending on the individual, that might include simple changes at home, maintaining a healthy weight, adjusting exercise, nutritional support, medications, supplements, rehabilitation, massage, acupuncture or other supportive therapies.

Senior care isn't about trying to make a 14-year-old behave like a four-year-old. It's about asking:

"What could we change to make life a little easier or more enjoyable?"

Sometimes even a 1% improvement matters. 💙

Is there something you've always wanted to know about your senior pet? Drop your question in the comments — we'd love to know what topics you'd like us to cover.

We're also sharing more senior pet information in our weekly newsletters. To join the list, email Leanne at [email protected]

Senior Pet Care: Small Changes Can Make a Big Difference

As our pets get older, their needs change — sometimes so gradually that we don't immediately notice.

A few thoughtful adjustments at home can make everyday life much easier for our senior dogs and cats:

💙 Provide a soft, supportive bed somewhere warm and away from draughts.

💙 Add non-slip rugs or mats to slippery floors to improve confidence and stability.

💙 Keep food, water and favourite resting places easy to access. For cats, consider having important resources on each level of the home.

💙 Choose gentle, regular movement over long or strenuous exercise. For older dogs, shorter and more frequent walks can work beautifully.

💙 Help senior cats reach their favourite places with steps, ramps or lower alternatives.

💙 Keep nails trimmed to improve grip and stability.

And don't underestimate the importance of maintaining a healthy body weight — it's one of the most valuable things we can do to reduce the load on ageing joints.

Getting older doesn't have to mean giving up the things they love. Often, it's about adapting their world to help them keep doing them comfortably.

We're talking all things senior pet care in our weekly newsletters. If you'd like to join our newsletter list, email Leanne at [email protected].

From anxious traveller to outback adventurer 🐾🚙

We absolutely love getting updates like this from our clients!

Monti and Molly recently headed off on a big family adventure to Lara Wetlands in outback Queensland — but travelling with an anxious dog meant their family did a little extra planning before they left.

With veterinary guidance, Monti's anti-anxiety medication helped him settle into life on the road and made the experience much more manageable for everyone.

And what an experience it was!

On their travels, Monti and Molly encountered cattle and horse musters, working dogs, horses, emus, kangaroos, wild goats, Brolgas and even ducks wandering through their campsite.

For Monti in particular, that's a LOT of excitement to process!

His family calmly reassured him through each new experience, giving him time and space to adjust. By the time they reached Lara Wetlands, Monti was walking happily at heel past the local wildlife, while Molly gradually became more confident too.

Medication doesn't necessarily remove anxiety or replace training. Sometimes it simply turns the volume down enough that an anxious dog can think, learn and cope with situations that might otherwise feel overwhelming.

We love that Monti's family recognised his needs before their trip and worked with us to make a plan. The result? Two dogs AND two humans who got to enjoy a pretty incredible outback adventure together. 💙

Thank you for sending us these gorgeous holiday photos — we love seeing our patients out there enjoying life!

If anxiety is limiting the things you and your pet can comfortably do together, please talk to us. There are many ways we can help, and every plan should be tailored to the individual pet.
