A healthy horse is a happy horse!! 🐴

Don’t forget a FEC on your noble steed is always a good idea (especially if you haven’t done one in a while 🙊)

Although it has been exceptionally dry, it is always best to test first & then decide on if a drench is needed. We will be expecting rain one day soon…. (hopefully), so get your horses checked now to know if they need one before winter hits!! 🪱

Drop your samples into any of our large animal clinics, and get your results back within 24 hrs 🙌

It is well & truly disbudding season 😍

This is your friendly reminder to book your disbudding in before they grow too big! The prime time is between 2 and 8 weeks of age, before the bud attaches to the skull.

We offer disbudding at all of our large animal clinics, call yours to book your pods in today! 🐮

Check out this HUGE abscess on this BIG bull 🐮

Dr Kim got called out to fix a large hump found on a bull recently. Dr Kim very quickly found out it was a juicy abscess, that needed a good draining!! 🙌

Plenty of pus came out but she also found a small stick, it was most likely the reason the abscess formed in the first place 😱

(Sorry, the pics of the pus were a bit too graphic for FB 🤢)

Here are the before and after pictures, a course of antibiotics & anti-inflammatories after it was drained sorted him out quick smart!!

He is certainly happy he no longer looks like a different species too 🐪😂

Say hello to Louie 👋

This sweet man accompanied his dad into our Simpson clinic, to pick up a drug order! Louie got lots of pats from Libby, who was manning the clinic, & he even smiled for a photo 😍

We love it when your farm dogs come visit us, at any of our large animal clinics, and we usually stock treats for them to have a sweet reward for brightening our day!!

Don't forget our Simpson clinic is there for your convenience, call either our Simpson clinic direct, or our Timboon crew, to put in your drug requests. Then you pick them up closer to home out at our Simpson clinic.... Bonus points if you bring your pet along for a visit 😉

WARNING - Potentially Graphic Imaging ⚠⚠

It’s almost Easter… 🐰

Here is your friendly reminder to squirrel your Easter goodies away from your pets! 🍫

Chocolate contains the active ingredients theobromine and caffeine, which are toxic to dogs (even in small amounts).

These ingredients are stimulants and cannot be efficiently processed in dogs. This means they build up to toxic levels in their system and cause some seriously alarming symptoms if left untreated.
- Excessive thirst
- Vomiting
- Diarrhoea
- High blood pressure
- Rapid heartbeat
- Arrythmias
- Tremors
- Seizures

The general rule is the darker the chocolate, the more toxic it will be. Regardless, it’s always better to get it out of the system before it does any damage. 🤞

Indi definitely regretted her choices, but we are so grateful her family acted so quickly and brought her in!

EDIT: Ben’s owner has been found & he is being picked up!! 😍❤️
Thank you for all your shares and responses. We are so glad this old man had found his home!

Are you missing this senior gentleman?? 🥹

We have just had this old fella brought into our Wollaston clinic this afternoon, and he is looking very sad to be here!

Unfortunately, he does not have a microchip and is not wearing a collar with any ID tags. He is an entire male dog. We are guessing his age is in the double digits, but can’t be certain without any forms of ID, we also don't know his name because of this! 😫

He was picked up in Glenormiston, so has travelled a fair way to us. Please share this post with people local to that area & let's try get this fella home safe!! 🤞

He has been fed and will be kept safe in our clinic tonight, in the hopes that someone comes forward soon. Otherwise, we will have to pass him onto the local rangers 😞

Let's put a smile on this old man's dial & get him home ASAP!
Call our clinic on 5561 6911 if this is your dog 📞❤️

👉 IMPORTANT MESSAGE 👈

Unfortunately, we have had a deceased cat brought into our Wollaston clinic today. 😞

She was found at the top of Mortlake Road. The cat does have a microchip but unfortunately the details were never registered, so we have no ability to contact the owners.

If you are missing a desexed female, domestic long hair, grey tabby cat, please call our Wollaston clinic on 5561 6911.

We would love to track down her family 🐱
