Meet Dragon 🐉🦷
Dragon came in on Monday not himself at all — off his food, drooling down the left side of his face, and that whole side swollen. A sick, sore boy. His owners did exactly the right thing bringing him straight in to be looked at.
On a conscious exam we could already see dental disease. But the full story only showed once he was under anaesthetic with dental x-rays — and it was big. Dragon had advanced resorptive lesions, the painful kind that sit down under the gumline where you simply can't see them.
This is the thing about dental disease in cats: it's so often hidden. Sometimes there are indirect signs like a swollen gum, and sometimes, like with Dragon, there's nothing obvious at all until the pain gets too much to hide. These lesions HURT, and by the time a cat stops eating, it has usually been going on a long while.
That's why examination under anaesthetic with x-rays matters so much — it's how we actually find what's going on and treat it properly.
Dragon had major dental surgery and it went beautifully. He's now pain-free and on the road to recovery — hooray! 🤗
If your cat goes quiet on their food, starts drooling, or their face looks puffy, please get them checked. Pain like this is treatable, and they deserve to feel good again.

You're starting to see your dog or cat scratch. It's September, and everything wakes up at once 🐾

Fleas, pollen, grass, all in the same fortnight. And most owners have already been through three different shampoos before they get to me.

Try it in this order instead:
👉🏻 Fleas first, and every pet in the house, not just the itchy one
👉🏻 Look at WHERE they're scratching. Paws, belly and ears could mean contact allergy. Rump and tail base is where fleas like to gather
👉🏻 If it's bothered them more than two weeks, let's have a proper look

Come in sooner if there's non stop licking, weeping or broken skin, a smell, bald patches, or scabs around the neck. That last one is very common in cats.

The itchy ones I see early get a simple fix. The ones I see at six weeks have a skin infection, and that's a much bigger job.

Bravery Award earned! 🏅

Leyla came in for her desexing and handled every bit of it like a champion. Certificate very much deserved.

Thank you for the beautiful review, Sarmone. Leyla was a superstar and we can't wait to see her back for her post op check.

Mr. Odin came in for his desexing 💙

This boy WANTS to be loved — he just needs to make his mind up about you first! A bit of a nervous Nelly, and honestly those are the patients I find the most satisfying to get through a smooth day.

And he did so well!! Handling was smooth, the surgery was smooth. A truly routine day, start to finish.

Some patients do better with their owner close by. If you think yours is one of them, tell us when you book and we'll see what we can arrange:
👉🏻 Timing their surgery so there's no long wait around beforehand
👉🏻 Having you stay for the pre-medication examination, and settling them while they go off to sleep

And sometimes it's the other way around — some pets settle much better once we quietly take them through on our own! Every dog is different, and so is every owner. We'll work out what suits yours on the day.

Whatever it takes to make it comfortable for your pet AND for you.

Cone on, and STILL leaning in for pats 🥹

Well done, Mr Odin!

15 FIVE STAR REVIEWS in the last 10 days 🤗

Here are three of them. Honestly, they say it better than we ever could.

Mitch and Duke, who swallowed a piece of corn cob and had it out without surgery.
Jessica and Benji, through desexing and then dental surgery.
Amber and her 13 year old lab, ears sorted and weight back under control.

Thank you to every single person who took the time to write one. Our vets and nurses read all of them!

Spring is nearly here — and that means PUPPY season! 🐾

This little girl is Pepsi, and she's due to have her babies any day now!!

Look at that face. Not a single worry in the world about what's coming 😄

All the very best, Pepsi — we're wishing you an easy delivery and a healthy squeaky litter.

Good luck to you and your babies! 💕

Meet Banjo 🤎

Some patients get you right in the heart, and this big boy is one of them.

A couple of months ago we said goodbye to his owner's senior Shepherd — one of the gentlest, most placid patients we've ever had come through our doors. Anyone who thinks a vet team doesn't feel those days, we absolutely do. It was heartbreaking to be part of.

So when that name came up on the appointment list again, this time attached to a BIG fluffy puppy… oh, the happiness in this clinic!!

Banjo spent the whole day here with us and would you believe it — just as placid as the old girl was. Big, fluffy, soft as anything, and cuddled by every single one of us. Repeatedly. No apologies!!

Welcome, Banjo 🐾 We're so glad you're here.

Meet Ruby 🦷

Ruby came in for a scale and polish — a grade 2 dental. And honestly? On her conscious exam we could NOT tell you whether she'd need extractions. Thick tartar, swollen gums, gingivitis — it all hides what's going on underneath.

This is exactly why we assess the mouth properly under general anaesthetic.

Have a look at the probing in this video. That's a furcation exposure on one of her premolars — the bone between the roots is gone. You simply cannot find that on an awake dog. That tooth comes out.

The rest of her mouth? Actually quite good!! Which is the whole point of getting in and dealing with it before it gets worse — leave it longer and it's just a vicious cycle.

And a scale and polish isn't only about pearly white teeth. We excise excess and loose gum where it's needed too, because what we're really treating is the disease UNDER the gum line. That's the part nobody sees.

Our $379 dental promotion is in its LAST week — give us a ring if Ruby's mouth looks familiar 🐾

Samoyed puppies in for their vaccinations and microchips today — DEFINITELY the highlight of any day! 🤗

So placid while they're in our arms… then you put them on the floor and oooh, they do NOT stop talking!!

These little ones are off to their new homes soon — and here's the bit new puppy owners need to hear: with our early socialisation protocol, your puppy can be out and about from as early as 12 WEEKS.

That matters. The window where puppies learn that the world is a normal, safe place closes fast — and waiting until 16 weeks to leave the backyard means missing a big chunk of it.

New puppy at home, or one coming soon? Give us a call and we'll map out the vaccination timing so you're not left waiting 🐾

Smelly breath isn't normal 🦷

Honey came in unwell — off her food for a couple days, flat, not herself. Her owner noticed something important: Honey had always had noticeably smelly breath. They suspected it was dental, and they were right.

Honey's been tolerating severe dental disease for years. Rotten teeth. Pain she wasn't screaming about — just quietly coping. We extracted the sore teeth, and she's doing so much better already.

Here's what we see all the time in clinic: smelly breath is a RED FLAG. It's not normal, and it's not something to ignore. Bad breath means infection, means pain, means your dog is suffering in silence.

This is why August is Dental Month! We're running a scale and polish PROMOTION and offering a FREE dental check-up to see if your pet qualifies. Catch it early, like Honey's owner did, and you can prevent years of pain.

Don't wait for your dog to stop eating. Get that dental check-up today.

💕 SHARE if this helps someone! Your pet's breath might be telling you something important.
