Tillie the adorable English Staffy visited us for a small eye lump removal and she did amazing! ❤ She's now resting up and on the road to a full recovery. What a little superstar!

Our handsome boy Wilson visited the clinic for his routine scale and polish, and now he has a fresh, healthy smile! 😁

Dental care is just as important for our furry friends as it is for us. Keeping teeth clean helps prevent bad breath, gum disease, and other serious health issues down the track. 🪥

Wilson was a superstar throughout his visit and is now back to his charming self, looking and feeling great!

📅 Don’t forget: Our dental promo is running until the end of September and spots are filling up FAST. Get in now to avoid missing out.

🚨WARNING GRAPHIC CONTENT 🚨
Say hello to Florence, the little dachshund who decided that 5 rows of Kit Kat chocolate made a perfect mid-day snack 🍫🐶

Her quick-thinking humans brought her straight into the clinic, and we were able to safely make her vomit up the chocolate. She’s now totally fine, back to her normal self, and possibly still wondering why we ruined her "dessert." 😅

⚠️ Important reminder: Chocolate is toxic to dogs, even in small amounts. It can cause vomiting, tremors, seizures, or worse, especially for small breeds like Florence. Always keep chocolate (and all sweets!) out of paw's reach!

Florence gets a gold star ⭐ for bravery and maybe a few safe treats later on (no chocolate, we promise!).

Meet Molly, a sweet pup who gave her family quite a scare a few weeks ago. After chewing up her bed, Molly ended up swallowing magnets that were hidden inside the bedding material. 😬

She was brought to us showing signs of discomfort, and after imaging confirmed the presence of multiple foreign objects, Molly underwent an exploratory laparotomy (ex-lap). Our surgical team successfully retrieved the magnets, and we’re happy to report that Molly is now recovering well at home! 💪💚

⚠️ Why is this important? Swallowed magnets can be extremely dangerous, especially more than one. They can attract each other through the walls of the intestines, leading to perforations, blockages, and cause life-threatening complications.

👉 What can you do?

Be mindful of toys, beds, or household items that contain magnets or other small parts.

If your pet chews and destroys objects, consider safer alternatives and monitor closely.

If you suspect your pet may have ingested something unusual, don’t wait. Contact your nearest veterinary clinic immediately.

We’re so happy Molly is on the mend, and we hope her story helps other pet parents stay aware of those sneaky little hazards hiding in everyday items.

🐾From Cuddles to Cocci : Meet Bernerd🐾

This sweet, floppy-eared gentleman stopped by for a check-up, and while he definitely stole our hearts, he also brought along a bit of an unwelcome surprise… an Ear Infection! 👂💥

Poor Bernerd has some pesky yeast and cocci causing trouble in his ears.

✨ What’s That Mean?

Yeast is a type of fungus that loves warm, moist places like the inside of a dog’s ear. It can make ears itchy, smelly, and inflamed with a black or brown discharge.

Cocci are a type of bacteria that can also cause infection, leading to redness, pain, and a lot of head shaking. Under a microscope, cocci tend to look like bunches of grapes.

💊 Don’t worry, with some proper treatment and TLC, Bernerd will be back to his happy, tail-wagging self in no time!

What can YOU do to prevent this? To help prevent ear infections in pets, having their ears cleaned regularly especially in water-loving or floppy-eared breeds, routine grooming, using a water bowl suitable for our long eared friends to stop the ears from going into the water and diet changes may help, as food allergies can contribute to recurring infections.

📸 Swipe for max cuteness (seriously, look at those ears!) and don’t forget to keep an eye on your pet’s ears, early treatment = faster relief!
