❄️ Winter Arthritis Awareness ❄️

As the weather gets colder, many pets living with osteoarthritis can experience increased stiffness and discomfort. Osteoarthritis is a common condition, particularly in older dogs and cats, where the joints become inflamed and painful over time. You may notice your pet becoming slower to get up, reluctant to jump or climb stairs, less enthusiastic about walks, or generally less active than usual.

The good news is that arthritis can often be managed successfully, helping your pet maintain a happy and comfortable quality of life. Early intervention is key, and there are many treatment options available including weight management, joint supplements, prescription medications, physiotherapy, and tailored exercise programs.

If you've noticed any changes in your pet's mobility, don't assume it's "just old age." Our team would be happy to assess your pet and discuss the best management options to keep them moving comfortably throughout winter and beyond. 🐾💙

FOUND CAT – NARACOORTE 🐱

Does anyone recognise this lovely girl?

She has been wandering in the Naracoorte area and has been kindly cared for by a local resident for several weeks now. Despite efforts to locate her owner, no one has come forward.

She appears friendly and is being well looked after, but we would love to reunite her with her family if she has one.

If you think this may be your cat, or you know who she belongs to, please contact the Naracoorte Clinic.

⚠️ MISSING DOG – PLEASE SHARE ⚠️

Rosie, a 2-year-old chocolate Staffy x, has been missing from her home in the Frances area for the past two weeks. 💔

Rosie was heavily pregnant when she disappeared, and her owners are desperately searching high and low to bring her and potentially her babies safely home.

She is much loved and her family are extremely worried for her welfare. If anyone has seen Rosie, has information about where she may be, or has taken her in thinking she was stray, please come forward.

Please keep an eye out around sheds, paddocks, scrub, and quiet areas where she may have sought shelter to have her puppies.

📍 Last seen: Frances area
🐶 Name: Rosie
🎨 Colour: Chocolate
🐾 Breed: Staffy x
📅 Missing for: 2 weeks

Even the smallest piece of information could help reunite this poor girl with her family. Please share this post to help spread the word and get Rosie home safe. ❤️

🐴 Why Are Horse Dentals So Important? 🦷

Just like us, horses need regular dental care to stay healthy and comfortable. Horses’ teeth continually grow throughout their lives, which can lead to sharp points, uneven wear, hooks, and other painful dental issues if left untreated.

Signs your horse may need a dental check include:
• Dropping feed while eating
• Weight loss or poor condition
• Bad breath
• Difficulty chewing
• Head tossing or resistance under saddle
• Quidding (spitting out partially chewed food)

Routine dental examinations help keep your horse eating comfortably, maintaining weight, and performing at their best. Most horses benefit from a dental check every 6–12 months, although younger and older horses may require more frequent monitoring.

💙 While we’re talking horse health, don’t forget to check your gelding or stallion for “willy beans” too!

“Beans” are firm accumulations of sm**ma that can build up inside the sheath and around the urethral diverticulum. If left unchecked, they can become uncomfortable and may cause irritation, swelling, difficulty urinating, sensitivity, or behavioural changes.

Regular sheath cleaning and checks are an important part of your horse’s routine healthcare and can help keep them comfortable and happy.

A big thank you to our nurse Kira for sharing these photos of her horse’s having their dental care and health checks completed by the wonderful Dr Elle! 🐎✨

🐾Still looking for this lovely ladies home! 🐾

This beautiful little black female kitten was found near Naracoorte Primary School last week, and we are hoping to reunite her with her owners.

She is very healthy, incredibly friendly, and absolutely loves affection and cuddles, which makes us think she may belong to someone nearby. She’s been very sweet and comfortable around people since being found.

If you recognise her or think she may be yours, please send us a message with some details so we can help get her home safely.

Please also share this post to help us find her family 🖤🐱
