A spotlight post for the small but mighty, CARLOS 🐾💪🏼
Carlos came into the clinic after his jaw was unfortunately fractured in two places! He couldn’t eat and was obviously in a lot of pain. Dr. Gwilym performed a fracture repair surgery, placing pins to assist the jaw in healing in the correct position. Carlos also required an oesophageal feeding tube, so we could ensure he got all the nutrients his little body needed to heal. He is on the road to recovery now, and we all look forward to having him back in clinic for cuddles and to tell everyone who’s boss!

So good having two beautiful schnauzers and their very loving owner in recently! Their rescued schnauzers are so lucky to be in such caring hands 🩵

My rescue dog Rosie with Dr Peter MacKenzie-Wood at the amazing new Coogee Vets.

As a past Schnauzer owner, Dr Peter has lots of experience with our breed - and I cannot recommend Coogee vets highly enough.

Rosie was adopted from the "RSPCA 41" two years ago and has adjusted easily to the "spoilt schnauzer" lifestyle!! ❤️

After breaking two bones in her leg, this sweet girl came into our care. Our team surgically repaired her fractures and placed a plate to provide stability and support throughout the healing process.

She received plenty of care, attention and love from the team during her recovery, and we’re happy to share that she has been doing well since 🩵🐾

Teddy’s TPLO 🦴🩵

The gorgeous Teddy came to us for a TPLO (Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy) to help get him back on all four paws!

A TPLO is a surgical procedure commonly performed to treat a ruptured cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) in dogs. The surgery involves changing the angle of the top of the tibia so the knee is stabilised during weight-bearing, helping to restore function and reduce pain.

Recovery takes time, patience and plenty of rehabilitation, but with the right care, most dogs can make an excellent return to their normal activities!
