Every year on September 7, we pause to recognize National Threatened Species Day — a reminder that many of the animals we love are facing real and growing challenges in the wild. 🌿 This day commemorates the death of Australia's last Tasmanian Tiger, who died on the September 7, 1936.

At Cooper St Vet Hospital, we care deeply about all animals — the ones in our clinics and the ones in the wild. This day holds meaning for us because it reflects something we believe in every day: that every creature deserves protection, care, and a chance to thrive.

Threatened species don't just need scientists and conservationists. They need communities that are aware, compassionate, and willing to take small steps that make a big difference — like supporting wildlife-friendly practices, reporting injured animals, and learning about the species native to our region.

Here are a few simple ways to help:
🐾 Learn about threatened species in your local area
🐾 Support wildlife rescue and rehabilitation organizations
🐾 Keep pets supervised outdoors to protect local wildlife
🐾 Reduce pesticide use in your garden

Together, small actions can lead to real change for the animals that share our world.

What is one thing you do — or would like to start doing — to help protect wildlife in your community? We would love to hear from you. 💚

How cute is baby Dollop?! 😍

Your puppy's health starts from the inside out. 🐾

Intestinal worms are one of the most common — and most overlooked — health concerns in young puppies. Many puppies are born with worms or pick them up early in life, often without showing obvious signs right away. Left untreated, these parasites can affect your puppy's growth, energy, and overall well-being.

Here are a few things every puppy parent should know:

🐶 Puppies can carry worms even when they look healthy.
🐶 Common signs include a bloated belly, dull coat, low energy, or digestive issues.
🐶 Early deworming and regular preventive care can make a real difference in your puppy's long-term health.

At the Cooper St Vet Hospital, we understand how much your puppy means to you. That is why we are here to guide you through every step of their care — with honesty, compassion, and the attention they deserve.

Starting your puppy on a proper deworming schedule is one of the simplest and most effective things you can do for them right now.

Have you spoken to a vet about your puppy's parasite prevention plan yet? We would love to help. 💬
