Recently at the clinic we had another patient with a pyometra, where an infection builds in the uterus and is a very serious condition that needs urgent treatment, so we wanted to take the time to highlight the importance of desexing.

Benefits of desexing:
✨ Health benefits: Desexing can reduce the risk of certain reproductive diseases and cancers.
🏡 Helps prevent unwanted litters.
🐶 Can reduce unwanted behaviours: Desexing may help reduce behaviours such as roaming, urine marking and some hormone-driven behaviours.
❤️ A happier, healthier future: Your vet can help you decide the best age and approach for desexing based on your pet’s breed, size, age and individual needs.

If you’re unsure whether it’s the right time to desex your pet, talk to our veterinary team. We’re here to help you make the best decision for your furry family member. 🐕🐈

🦷🐾 AUGUST IS DENTAL MONTH! 🐾🦷

Throughout August, we’re offering FREE dental checks and discounted dental procedures to help keep your pet’s smile healthy! 💙

Here’s a great example of why regular dental checks are so important…

Meet Mila 🐶❤️ She came in for a routine check-up, and during her dental examination, a scale and polish was recommended. Luckily, it was perfect timing — no teeth needed to be removed! 🎉 Check out her before and after photos.

However, Mila had already developed a significant build-up of tartar. Without treatment, this can progress to dental disease, and if her owner had waited much longer, there was a much higher chance that she would have needed teeth removed.

🦷 Did you know pets age around 7–9 times faster than we do?
That means an annual dental check for your pet is roughly equivalent to you only visiting the dentist once every 7–9 years!

Regular dental checks are so important because pets are also incredibly good at hiding pain. Often, by the time owners notice something is wrong — such as difficulty eating, dropping food, bad breath or changes in behaviour — dental disease may already be quite advanced.

So don’t wait until your pet is in pain. ❤️

📞 Give us a call and book your pet in for a FREE dental check this Dental Month!

Let’s keep those tails wagging and those teeth sparkling! ✨🐾

Last weekend we had the pleasure of welcoming 65 Veterinary students from Charles Sturt University Wagga Wagga and University of Sydney .

They were treated to a packed weekend learning about our wonderful community in Dubbo and visiting the 4 Dubbo Veterinary Clinics. They then had a delicious dinner at Devil's Hollow Brewery where they met staff from other surrounding towns and Vet Clinics as well as the sponsors for this event.
The follow morning they did the early morning Taronga Western Plains Zoo walk and met with the Wildlife Hospital Veterinarian and staff where they learnt about a career in wildlife and exotic animals.
The weekend was a great opportunity for these students to venture further and see how great our communities, clinics and a career out here can be.

We hope to see some of these students back for placements and careers in the future.

See image for all sponsors and Veterinarians involved. We are so grateful for their support for this event for our amazing industry.

🐾 Have you seen the current Australian Geographic July/August edition?

Take a look at the gorgeous Kelpie puppy on the front cover! 🐶✨

We feel lucky to have cared for this little Dubbo local providing their puppy vaccinations and health examinations right here at our clinic.

🎓🐾 Congratulations to our June Puppy Preschool Graduates! 🐾🎓

Another wonderful group of puppies have officially graduated from Puppy Preschool, and we couldn’t be prouder of how much they’ve learned and grown over the past few weeks.

From learning basic manners and social skills to building confidence and making new furry friends, these pups have all done an amazing job. We love watching their personalities shine and seeing the special bond between puppies and their families develop.

Well done to all of our June graduates – we can’t wait to see what adventures lie ahead for you! 🐶

🏉💙❤️ State of Origin Fever Has Hit the Clinic! ❤️💙🏉

A few of our team members came to work today repping their colours ahead of tonight’s big game! The rivalry is alive with plenty of friendly banter about who will take home the win.

So, who are you backing tonight — NSW Blues or QLD Maroons? 🤔

We can’t help but wonder… are any of our furry patients getting into the State of Origin spirit too? 🐶🐱 We’d love to see some photos in the comments! 📸

***Not sure if the boss will appreciate the blue on the page, so hopefully he doesn’t see this 😜

**10% Discount!!**

Fleas are present all year round and it is critical to continue to prevent fleas during the winter months too so you do not get a huge flea burden come spring time.
Until the end of May we are offering a 10% discount if your dog gets the once a year flea and tick injection, this takes out having to remember when they last had a treatment and especially if you get it done all together with their vaccinations.
Fleas can lay up to 50 eggs a day and once these eggs have been laid it’s much harder to break the lifecycle. That’s why prevention is critical.
